Also known as RH

conjecture in mathematics linked to the repartition of prime numbers

AI overview

The Riemann hypothesis is a famous conjecture in mathematics that describes a pattern in how prime numbers are distributed across all numbers. If proven true, it would answer a centuries-old question about the underlying order of primes and would have major implications for cryptography, computer science, and our fundamental understanding of numbers.
