        Someone tweeted that he's Kurdish-Iranian. Is that right? Also how about the 24 year old German guy?

        From the story, it doesn't sound like the work any of these people are doing has any practical application for the real world.

        Well me neither to be honest, but some of the things we use in daily life are based on mathematical developments from way back when the mathematicians often didn’t know what their future uses would be. I’m thinking of internet security/encryption.

        Well done! It's just too bad the president and his administration don't believe in math and science.

        Interesting point is one of them, Caucher Birkar, is Iranian and if he had his Iranian passport he wouldn't have been able to visit USA, thanks to Trump's travel ban.
