SUMMARY

Rahul Kumar, a self-taught Indian mathematician, seeks recognition for his original formulas in real analysis, including topics such as nested radicals, continued fractions, and the Riemann zeta function. Despite his efforts to contact prestigious institutions like Harvard, Stanford, Cambridge, and MIT, he has faced challenges in gaining attention from the academic community. The forum members advised him that Physics Forums is not the appropriate venue for unpublished work and suggested exploring platforms like viXra.org, although they noted its poor reputation among scientists. Ultimately, they emphasized the importance of formal education in engineering to connect with experts in the field.

PREREQUISITES
  • Understanding of real analysis concepts, including nested radicals and continued fractions.
  • Familiarity with the Riemann zeta function and its applications.
  • Knowledge of mathematical publishing and peer review processes.
  • Basic proficiency in mathematical writing and research paper formulation.
NEXT STEPS
  • Research the process of publishing mathematical work in peer-reviewed journals.
  • Learn about the use of Mathematica for implementing and presenting mathematical formulas.
  • Explore networking opportunities with mathematicians through academic conferences and workshops.
  • Study the fundamentals of mathematical education and its role in professional development.
USEFUL FOR

This discussion is beneficial for aspiring mathematicians, self-taught individuals seeking academic recognition, and anyone interested in the challenges of publishing original mathematical research.

i'm a self-taught indian mathematician, I've been making formulas since i was in 7th class, I've worked on real analysis topics like nested radicals, continued fractions, reimann zeta function ,nested integrals, etc . I've basic school level math education and now I'm being forced to study engineering ,i want to become mathematician and i don't want my formulas to die with me , I've tried contacting wolfram's office and they told me to implement my work in mathematica, and i was not interested in it, i wanted to write research papers . I've tried contacting other people but no one really sees their emails , I need help and i want to talk with any professor or researcher and i want to show my formulas to harvard, stanford , cambridge and mit math professors. I've derived formula for sums of kth powers of natural numbers when i was in 8th class and derived formula for n-Volume for simplex,orhtoplex and hypercube when i was in 10th , not knowing they already existed , i can show math professors or universities my new undiscovered formulas . ANy help OR advice would be appreciated , Thank you , and my name is Rahul Kumar

Hi Rahul,

I'm afraid PF isn't the right place for this. We only discuss what already has been published. It is generally difficult for a layman to get in contact to the scientific scene. This is due to the fact, that normally such "formulas" are simply wrong or at least not of general interest and time is too valuable. Here are two articles about it, but I'm not sure they will help you:
https://www.physicsforums.com/insights/wont-look-new-theory/
https://www.physicsforums.com/insights/publishing-in-a-physics-journal-addendum/

You can try to publish your formulas on viXra.org but it's reputation is bad and actual scientists will hardly recognize it at all. E.g. it's a no-go as source on PF. If you will study engineering, then you will get in contact to experts and you should speak with them about it.

Sorry, that we cannot really help you with that.

TL;DR: How can I begin to gain an understanding of astronomy? Hello there, and thank you in advance to anyone that might answer this. I'm sorry if this is the wrong place to post a question like this, as I am new to this website and also very nervous about making a post that others might see/reply to. I am a freshman in high school and I am interested in astronomy. I want to learn about space, but I am not quite sure where to begin. Is there anything that I can do to seriously expand my...
