When I visited Göttingen, they had an age old clay version of it standing in a vitrine

fucked up the sum, ignore the k and the \x


[math] \sum_{k=1}^n \int_0^1 x\, dx = \frac{n}{2} [/math]

Is it the case that, given any pair of two 15x15 square matrices X and Y, they can either be multiplied (possibly with repetition, e.g. "X⋅X⋅Y⋅X" or "Y⋅X⋅Y⋅Y⋅Y⋅X", etc., etc.) in a way that yields the zero matrix, or they cannot?

Who said that? That's a bold claim.

Is it the case that, given any pair of two 15x15 square matrices [math]X[/math] and [math]Y[/math], they can either be multiplied (possibly with repetition, e.g. [math]X \cdot{} X \cdot{} Y \cdot{} X [/math] or [math]Y \cdot{} X \cdot{} Y \cdot{} Y\cdot{} Y\cdot{} X [/math], etc.) in a way that yields the zero metric, or they cannot?
