One computer scientist’s “stunning” proof is the first progress in 50 years on one of the most famous questions in computer science. This is the third episode of our new weekly series The Quanta Podcast, hosted by Quanta Magazine editor in chief Samir Patel. This week's guest is Ben Brubaker; he recently published "For Algorithms, a Little Memory Outweighs a Lot of Time.” (If you've been a fan of Quanta Science Podcast, it will continue as 'audio edition episodes' in this same feed every other week.)
