|
| 179 |
+
print(f"Found {len(erdos_problems)} Erdős problems")
|
| 180 |
+
|
| 181 |
+
# Get Erdős problems in Number Theory
|
| 182 |
+
erdos_nt = [
|
| 183 |

|
| 185 |
+
]
|
| 186 |
+
|
| 187 |
+
print(f"Erdős problems in Number Theory: {len(erdos_nt)}")
|

# Get tractable problems (L1)

+
### Example: Working with LaTeX
|
| 215 |
+
|
| 216 |
+
```python
|
| 217 |
+
# Problems contain LaTeX notation in statement and background fields
|
| 218 |
+
problem = problems[0]
|
| 219 |
+
print(f"Title: {problem['title']}")
|
| 220 |
+
print(f"Statement: {problem['statement']}")
|
| 221 |
+
|
| 222 |
+
# Example statement with LaTeX:
|
| 223 |
+
# "If $A\\subseteq \\{1,\\ldots,N\\}$ with $\\lvert A\\rvert=n$
|
| 224 |
+
# is such that the subset sums $\\sum_{a\\in S}a$ are distinct
|
| 225 |
+
# for all $S\\subseteq A$ then $N \\gg 2^{n}$."
|
| 226 |
+
|
| 227 |
+
# Use KaTeX, MathJax, or sympy to render LaTeX
|
| 228 |
+
from IPython.display import display, Markdown
|
| 229 |
+
display(Markdown(problem['statement']))
|
| 230 |
+
```
|
| 231 |
+
|
| 232 |
+
### Example: Extracting Citations from Erdős Problems
|
| 233 |
+
|
| 234 |
+
```python
|
| 235 |
+
import json
|
| 236 |
+
import re
|
| 237 |
+
|
| 238 |
+
with open('problems.json', 'r') as f:
|
| 239 |
+
problems = json.load(f)
|
| 240 |
+
|
| 241 |
+
# Get all Erdős problems
|
| 242 |
+
erdos = [p for p in problems if p['problem_number'].startswith('EP-')]
|
| 243 |
+
|
| 244 |
+
# Extract citations from background
|
| 245 |
+
citations = set()
|
| 246 |
+
for problem in erdos:
|
| 247 |
+
bg = problem.get('background', '')
|
| 248 |
+
# Find citations like \\cite{Er98}
|
| 249 |
+
refs = re.findall(r'\\cite\{([^}]+)\}', bg)
|
| 250 |
+
citations.update(refs)
|
| 251 |
+
|
| 252 |
+
print(f"Unique citations in Erdős problems: {len(citations)}")
|
| 253 |
+
print(f"Examples: {list(citations)[:10]}")
|
| 254 |
+
```
|
| 255 |
+
|
| 256 |
+
## Data Collection and Curation
|
| 257 |
+
|
| 258 |
+
### Sources
|
| 259 |
+
|
| 260 |
+
This dataset was curated from:
|
| 261 |
+
- Erdős problems website by Thomas Bloom (erdosproblems.com)
|
| 262 |
+
- Clay Mathematics Institute - Official Millennium Prize documentation
|
| 263 |
+
- Historical mathematical problem collections (Hilbert, Smale, Landau)
|
| 264 |
+
- Published research papers and mathematical surveys
|
| 265 |
+
- Reputable mathematical organizations (AMS, IMU, etc.)
|
| 266 |
+
- Richard Guy's "Unsolved Problems in Number Theory"
|
| 267 |
+
- Ben Green's additive combinatorics problem collection
|
| 268 |
+
|
| 269 |
+
### Erdős Problems Special Notes
|
| 270 |
+
|
| 271 |
+
The 632 Erdős problems include:
|
| 272 |
+
- Complete problem statements
|
| 273 |
+
- Detailed backgrounds with historical context from original sources
|
| 274 |
+
- Full bibliographic references (e.g., Erdős papers from 1931-1999)
|
| 275 |
+
- Cross-references between related problems
|
| 276 |
+
- Citations to recent progress and partial results
|
| 277 |
+
- OEIS sequence references where applicable
|
| 278 |
+
- Connections to other famous problems and conjectures
|
| 279 |
+
|
| 280 |
+
### Quality Assurance
|
| 281 |
+
|
| 282 |
+
All problems include:
|
| 283 |
+
- Accurate mathematical statements with proper LaTeX notation (mostly, there might be some smaller corrections needed)
|
| 284 |
+
- Historical context and background information
|
| 285 |
+
- Proper attribution and source references
|
| 286 |
+
- Classification by mathematical domain and difficulty
|
| 287 |
+
|
| 288 |
+

## Ethical Considerations
|
| 308 |
+
|
| 309 |
+
- **Academic Integrity**: This dataset is for research and educational purposes
|
| 310 |
+
- **Attribution**: All problems properly attributed to original sources

|
| 314 |
+
|
| 315 |
+
## Limitations
|
| 316 |
+
|
| 317 |
+
- The dataset represents a curated selection, not an exhaustive list of all unsolved problems
|
| 318 |
+
- Problem difficulty is subjective
|
| 319 |
+
- LaTeX notation may require preprocessing for some applications
|
| 320 |
+
- Status (open/solved) should be verified for time-sensitive applications
|
| 321 |
+
- Some Erdős problem backgrounds contain extensive LaTeX citations that may need special handling
|
| 322 |
+
|
| 323 |
+
