It began as the GODFATHER OF MATH, evolved into the GOODFATHER OF MATH. Now this. Go figure...

Seriously Needing Grad Student With Very Serious Math Brain

________________________________________________________________________________________________

Are you
(or do you know)
a math student
in need of a graduate thesis
???
 
What is featured below
is the introductory page
to a complete thesis
that needs to be re-written
entirely in technical language
suitable for publication
 
In the summer of 1989
the original idea
—in embryonic form—
was presented to 
a professor at CalTech
in Pasadena
 
It was a "chalk talk"
in his office
where I did almost all
of the talking
and he did 
almost all 
of the listening
 
Unfortunately,
his thick French accent
and enthusiastic response
inspired my paranoia
to cut short the presentation
and promise to return
the following week
 
I never intended to do so
and have grown to regret
that decision
 
I wrote five drafts
of the paper before 
completing it in 2006
and reducing it from
twelve to five pages  
 
By then, 
distinguished mathematicians
From UCLA, USC,
Ohio State and
the University of South Carolina
determined my research
was completely original
and authentic
 
But I stupidly never submitted 
the paper for publication
in a math journal
because it still needs "keyboarding"
available only to people
on the highest level
of mathematics
 
All I need is someone
well-versed
in the most esoteric language
of math research
involving
"Elementary Number Theory"
and in need of a thesis subject
 
Traditionally,
Elementary Number Theory
is studied only after 
two full years
of calculus
