Abstract

The famous Poincaré Conjecture (1904), purely topological, was proved by the Russian mathematician Grigori Perelman in 2002 using geometry and differential equations. This paper is about the mathematics, the mathematicians, the prizes, the millions ofdollars and all the drama surrounding such a proof
