Abundance conjecture

In algebraic geometry, the abundance conjecture is a conjecture in birational geometry, more precisely in the minimal model program,stating that for every projective variety with Kawamata log terminal singularities over a field if the canonical bundle is nef, then is . Important cases of the abundance conjecture have been proven by Caucher Birkar. (Wikipedia).

Abundant, Deficient, and Perfect Numbers ← number theory ← axioms

Integers vary wildly in how "divisible" they are. One way to measure divisibility is to add all the divisors. This leads to 3 categories of whole numbers: abundant, deficient, and perfect numbers. We show there are an infinite number of abundant and deficient numbers, and then talk abou

Prime Numbers and their Mysterious Distribution (Prime Number Theorem)

Primes are the building blocks of math. But just how mysterious are they? Our study of prime numbers dates back to the ancient Greeks who first recognized that certain numbers can't be turned into rectangles, or that they can't be factored into any way. Over the years prime numbers have
