Nothing, he wasn't brilliant mathematician like Galois, Grothendieck or Memezuki, he just made up couple of gimmicky formulae and nowadays would be pretty much Neil degrade Tyson of maths

rofl
this guy couldn't carry out a proof for shit
he just adopted the easy-peasy physicist point of view where everything has to converge (which resulted in a lot of wrong results)

also a majority of his results were gotten through empirical means, that's why we never get to see the "proofs", and that also explains his maths goddess bullshit.

tl;dr he was a brainlet.

I'm pretty sure I could have beaten his ass in a battle of minds by the time I finished classes prépa and integrated ens ulm (people there are gods)

1+ S= 1+ (1-1+1-1+1-...)

1+ (1-1+1-1+1-....)= S

therefore:

1+ S= S
1= S- S
1= 0

Whats my obvious mistake?

>> No.8713767

>>8713763

1+ [(1-1)+1-1+1-1+1...] = either 1 or 2 depending on where you stop so not S....

No, he would be like rayman - an interesting quirk, but someone without any imagination to create.
