1000 Years

 David Hilbert was one of the most influential mathematicians of the late 19th and early 20th centuries, whose work revolutionized numerous fields of mathematics and theoretical physics. He made groundbreaking contributions to mathematical logic, number theory, functional analysis, and the foundations of geometry. His development of what came to be known as Hilbert spaces provided the mathematical framework for quantum mechanics, fundamentally shaping our understanding of the atomic world. Hilbert's famous list of 23 problems, presented in 1900, set the course for much of 20th-century mathematics and continues to influence research today. His work on invariant theory, integral equations, and the axiomatization of mathematics has had far-reaching impacts across science and philosophy. Despite these monumental achievements, Hilbert considered the Riemann hypothesis so important that he famously said if he were to awaken after sleeping for a thousand years, his first question would be: "Has the Riemann hypothesis been proven?"
