the Navier Stokes problem

[RichD]

I'm unclear on the statement of the Navier Stokes Millennium
problem; what exactly is the goal?

Aside from my own ignorance, who are the mathematicians
working on this? I mean, what's their training, what's their specialty?

If a specialist in topology got bored, and decided to jump
into the fray, how long would it take him to get up to speed?

I haven't heard of it yet but imagine it has to do with Fourier and chaleur, heat,
about the usual notion that it always falls vis-a-vis that it's oscillatory at all.

I.e., the usual model of bulk aggregate flow, or current, to have a notion of
the "wash", I wonder if that's what it's about. "Magic squares of Zahlen model vorticial flow."

I discuss some such matters in my podcast when reading a usual Fourier-style derivation.

These days it's called "adiabatic and nonadiabatic", so maybe that will help.

So, somebody will probably find some short-sighted closed-form half-way and call it good.
Kind of like that "Wiles" and his "Shimura-Taniyama".

You know why Goldbach has open conjectures?
Because they're independent standard number theory.

To solve the equation.

Most likely fluid dynamics.

I don't know, but I suspect not long to understand the problem. This
might help.
