Claimed Proof of Riemann Hypothesis

Posted by CmdrTaco on from the two-scoops-of-math-please dept.

An anonymous reader writes "Xian-Jin Li claims to have proven the Riemann hypothesis in this preprint on the arXiv." We've mentioned recent advances in the search for a proof but if true, I'm told this is important stuff. Me, I use math to write dirty words on my calculator.

    There was a girl named Dolly who had 69 inch breasts. Her doctor said they were 2, 2, 2 big. So, he gave her 51 exercises to do 8 times each day. What was she after that?

    A lot of slashdotters may never RTFA, but some of us like to know something of what the article is going to be about, so we can decide if it's worth R'ing-TFA. Otherwise Slashdot would just be a collection of titled links and not link, summary, discussion. Just a little gripe.
