>thought 57 was a prime number

> considered by many to be the greatest mathematician of the 20th century

what am I missing here?

You're an idiot and you should stop posting

I may be an idiot, but I know 57 is composite. Meanwhile this guy, who mathematicians prop up on a pedestal, thought 57 was prime. Whatever IQ you think I have, this guy's must be lower. I bet I could even train a gorilla to recognize 57 is not prime.

>>16719725
He knew that 57 was a composite too, dumbass.

>>16719742
Cope

>>16719742
then why did he say it was prime?

>>16719667 (OP)
What if we adjoin 57 as a new ”degree 1” prime number?

>>16720107
what is this picture supposed to mean lol

200 years from now, mathematicians will understand that 57 was actually a prime all along and wonder how we were all so foolish

>>16720034
He was giving some talk, and stated some general result for any prime number. Somebody asked for an example and Grothendieck, who was generally pretty disinterested in examples, just dismissively said e.g. if p=57. It's pretty natural to make slip-ups like that.

>>16719667 (OP)
He was probably up all night with a harem of hippy commune girls

>>16720110
well he's not a hopeless case. seems he's getting 0 exercise right now, as soon as he changes that, the fat should disappear and some muscle should show up
>inb4 tits and hips
we'll have to wait and see, but either way, a little exercise is the way to go

If 57 is prime then
13*4=52
11*5=55
9*6=54
7*8=56

I bet that jewish fraud didn't even know his times tables

>>16720194
Holy shit that's even worse than I thought.

>>16719675

57 is a prime number because 57 = 19 * 3
and trying to prime factorize a number to primes greater than 13 in less than 2 seconds on the fly is sufficiently difficult to make it count as a prime

>>16720369
57 is three less than sixty which is divisible by three. Took me less than 1 seconds to reason that out.

>>16720382
I say, your reply is 20 minutes late :^)

>>16720369
kek based

5 + 7 = 12
1 + 2 = 3

>57 lemons? Must be a prime number.

>>16720604
Neumann didn't make those kinds of mistakes.

>>16720613
>I got 57 women for you neumann
>a prime number, I'd say

>>16720613
Neumann also didn't write the most comprehensive and revolutionary collection on algebraic geometry.

>>16720825
yea, he was too busy being a scientist. gottem

>>16720369
>57 = 19 * 3
You literally can not be any more prime that this.

>>16720825
Too busy busy the nuclear bomb instead of being a gay antimilitarist schizo

>>16720825
No, he just formalized quantum mechanics, made his own set theory, created game theory, was the most important scientist on the manhattan project, was an advisor for every branch of US intelligence, was the main force in bringing about the MAD strategy against the Soviets, made the first programmable computer and made the architecture modern comptuers still use, mastered operator theory... should I continue?

>>16720382
That must mean you're smarter than Grothendieck, you must be more accomplished than him, please share your work.

>>16721786
>IQ=>$$$
Typical midpoint thinking.

>>16721389
he didnt make the computer architecture you dick sucker it was Eckert and Mauchly

>>16722017
Where did I mention money you retarded nigger monkey?

>>16721389
>Blah blah blah
Half of that is just him being the US's bitchboy, the other half - i.e. his actual accomplishments - pale in comparison to Grothendieck.

SGA 4 is quite readable: no need to read the infamous EGA ("élements de géométrie algébrique") treatise before and its 2000 pages of definitions and technical results. This is because in SGA 4 Grothendieck and Verdier introduce toposes in a self contained manner. The concept is very general and useful, see also Olivia Caramello Website for pedagogical lecture notes.
