<p>I am a high schooler, aiming to get into UCB,UCLA, Harvard, or something of the likes, and am wondering how you guys get mathematical journals. i see they are ridiculously expensive, and want to know if there are any other alternative online or cheaper methods...e.g. Mathematical Annals or do I have to wait till I get in college and borrow from their library?? </p>
<p>I would appreciate information particularly on PNT, Reimann's Hypothesis, Mersenne Primes and other number theory applications, including the partitioning of numbers, recently proven by Emory University.</p>
<p>Why don’t you just send an email to the people at Emory who proved it and ask for a copy of their paper?</p>
<p>I think jumping into the Reimann is probably not advisable… Maybe start with something that has been proved, and is not widely regarded as some of the most complex maths about.</p>
<p>I obviously cannot jump into Remain’s hypothesis, and for arguments sake, even if it turns out to be false, all the leading theorems proven before it are well, theorems and hence true. For example the lectures about infinity zeroes on reiman’s line, or the Prime number theorem itself. I am safe to say that I may not even live to see the proof or disproof of the actual Hypothesis. </p>
<p>@Newest newb, that’s a great idea!!! I will do so!</p>
<p>First of all, undergraduates don’t really tend to read mathematical journals. They’re really hard to understand and require lots of background. We tend to read books on our own to learn math. The only time you’d be likely to be reading a journal article would be for some research you’re doing, and in that case the professor you’re working with would give you the articles he wants you to read.
But if you really want to know, a lot of papers are posted on arXiv.org, or you can find links to them on the author’s website.</p>
