RE: Conference Tales: Heidelberg Laureate Forum 2015
There is a story circulating among physicists about why there is no math Nobel prize. ..
Allegedly, Nobel's wife ran away with a mathematician :)
Don't know if that's true, honestly.
As with most anecdotes, there probably is some truth in it. Those mathematicians land the most beautiful of ladies.
I can corroborate! It's almost surely impossible to leave a lady unmoved by a solid proof :-)
