Week 3: Want to win a million dollars?

To win the money, all you need to do is solve any one of the seven problems that, in an understatement comparable with 'Getting stung by a blue-bottle jellyfish is a little uncomfortable', make up my Problem of the week 3.

Those good guys over at the Clay Institute decided 5 years ago to offer a $1 million prize for solutions to any of seven particular unsolved mathematics problems, dubbed the millenium problems.

Official problem descriptions can be found here:
Birch and Swinnerton-Dyer Conjecture
Hodge Conjecture
Navier-Stokes Equations
P vs NP
Poincar� Conjecture
Riemann Hypothesis
Yang-Mills Theory

One catch though, according to the rules you will have to wait at least two years after submitting your solution before you can be eligible for the money (just to make sure it stands up to scrutiny).

Any takers?

200 years of unsolvability is too much for me to solve the Riemann Hypothesis
