Candidate status

Unadjudicated candidate

Unadjudicated

The Register publishes this census record without endorsing or adjudicating the mathematical claim.

Unadjudicated does not mean endorsed.

No refutation is recorded in the census data. Absence of a located response is not evidence that none exists.

Register census note

Inclusion basis

The title and abstract explicitly claim a proof of P=NP, within the sweep window.
