The psycho zeta buckdown.

The twin prime conjecture and the Riemann hypothesis have long remained two of the long-standing conundrums in number theory.

Louis de Branges of Purdue University has published a paper, not yet peer-reviewed, claiming to solve the Riemann hypothesis.
De Branges is perhaps best known for solving another trenchant problem in mathematics, the Bieberbach conjecture, about 20 years ago.
