![Although fifty-seven is not prime, it is jokingly known as the Grothendieck prime after a legend according to which the mathematician Alexander Grothendieck supposedly gave it as an example of a particular prime number.[5] The error was committed by another famous mathematician Hermann Weyl in a published article.[6]](https://cdn.bsky.app/img/feed_thumbnail/plain/did:plc:cyyd366g3hrxp5rynixm2mm3/bafkreibadmhvmbevnyfutzh2p6zqaamtbr46v6ubz5qwion5re5lywsreq)

In 1970, at the age of 42, the revolutionary mathematician Alexander Grothendieck abruptly disappeared. He left the field of mathematics; he left his wife and his three children. Twenty-two years later, two mathematicians became determined to find him.
The Mysterious Disappearance of a Revolutionary Mathematician
Alexander Grothendieck was revered for revealing connections between seemingly unrelated realms. Then he dropped out of society.

Je te l'échange contre une de Grothendieck
Alexandre Grothendieck a visité le le Nord Viêt Nam en 1967, pendant la guerre, et a passé un mois à enseigner au personnel du département de mathématiques de l'Université à Hanoi.
En raison de la guerre, ses cours se sont déroulées à l'écart de Hanoi, à la campagne
