I'm new to this board. Is that his version of a "theory of everything"?

thats a big theory

He claims to have proven abc, which is a big open conjecture, but he did it by inventing a whole area of mathematics and expects people to read some 1000s of pages of papers that he has been developing privately over the last 10 years. He's a respected mathematician and people think the proof is likely correct, but it's a bitch to verify, so it's sort of in limbo right now.

good luck understanding those 500 pages without reading 100s of pages of past papers he's written

Can someone explain what he means by this? Because it sounds pretty badass.

Because nobody fucking understands his theory but it's supposedly revolutionary, especially with regards to number theory and abstract algebra.

He's also enigmatic and eccentric as hell. Pic related. Also, there's speculation that he is the real person behind the pseudonym Satoshi Nakamoto.

Hence the memes.

>Mochizuki explains the name as follows: "in this sort of a situation, one must work with the Galois groups involved as abstract topological groups, which are not equipped with the 'labeling apparatus' . . . [defined as] the universe that gives rise to the model of set theory that underlies the codomain of the fiber functor determined by such a basepoint. It is for this reason that we refer to this aspect of the theory by the term 'inter-universal'."
