| This is the wiki for ''polymath'' projects - massively collaborative online mathematical projects. The idea of such projects originated in Tim Gowers' blog post [http://gowers.wordpress.com/2009/01/27/is-massively-collaborative-mathematics-possible/ Is massively collaborative mathematics possible?]
| |
|
| |
|
| Many polymath projects will be proposed, planned, and run at [http://polymathprojects.org/ this blog].
| | ==<center></center>== |
| | . |
|
| |
|
| A Polymath [[logo]] is being trialled. If you have more suggestions, please add them to the [[logo]] page, or add to the discussion at [[Talk:logo]].

|
| == Existing polymath projects ==
| | . |
|

|
| |
|
| If you have a tentative proposal for a polymath project, you can either make a post on it on your own blog, or place it [[other proposed projects|here]].
