2 young black girls in New Orleans have proven the Pythagorean Theory which is 2000+ years old and has never been proven by a single mathematician! I don’t think y’all hear me!

Have you ever seen the National Museum of African American History in-person? It's a giant architecturally hideous blob plopped down on the Nation Mall. Like a symbol of a blight striking a once beautiful urban area.

From what I could find only the abstract is currently public.
https://meetings.ams.org/math/spring2023se/meetingapp.cgi/Paper/23621
I can't even see any reactions from any of the academics at the meeting so until they release the actual presentation I think it's basically just taking their word for it.

I'd like to see their proof but if it's legit this is actually pretty cool, and not r-slurred.

I think the original bragpost was poorly worded. But the actual mathematics work that seems to have been done might be solid.

Yeah no knock against the two girls at all. It's just funny seeing all these people jumping to random conclusions they know nothing about

So it looks like they might have independently come to the same conclusion as the mathematician cited.
That's pretty cool for a high school student...shame it's all getting dragged into race war nonsense

Idk but to me that seems a bit of BS because I know that there are more general versions of Pythagorean theorem pertaining to vector spaces, and I don't think that those are based on any trigonometry. And the regular a^2+b^2=c^2 is just a special case and hence is covered by the non-trigonometric proof
But I could be wrong![:marseybrainlet: :marseybrainlet:](/e/marseybrainlet.webp)

How legit are these Math conferences? I assume they don't let anyone present whatever nonsense they want. Shouldn't be mocking this unless we have more info imo

Even John Nash had instances later in life where his schizophrenia really took hold and was making up outright nonsense theorems that didn’t pertain to any form of mathematics. I think these forums are hesitant to say no depending on whether it’s (1) a novel concept that is so early it hasn’t been rigorously reviewed or (2) don’t want to discourage younger peoples’ math interests

Math conferences, like all modern conferences, will bend over backwards to get minorities involved and if you're a young black woman there will be basically 0 checking because they will be foaming at the mouth to put you at the forefront of all their advertising

And yes, by the way, we DO have a Novel Pythagoras proof. And no, you cannot see it. It's for the BIPOC eyes only- and even then they have to demonstrate that they're within 5 (N)IQ points of our own (preferably lower) beforehand. Nothin personnel mayo😎
