| "Publishing" on the arxiv is not really publishing. The papers that go up there get about a 10 min look and as long as they aren't obviously flawed they go up. There is no chance that getting a paper on the arxiv will even get you a tenure track job let alone prize!
If Victor wants an Abel prize he'll need papers published in the Annals of Math.
...to that, good luck.
(I can anticipate the response: it is an unfair system this publishing business.....my answer..... get over it! It is the system. You can't win on American idol unless your young, pretty, and can sing. You cannot win a math prize unless you publish (seems more fair than american idol). Fair or not, them's the rules.) |
