Hilbert’s 23 questions are a speech entitled "Mathematical Problems" by the German mathematician David Hilbert at the Second International Congress of Mathematicians in Paris in 1900. The 23 most important questions were put forward. Important mathematical problem. The Hilbert problem played a positive role in promoting the development of mathematics in the 20th century. With the efforts of many mathematicians, most of Hilbert's problems were solved in the 20th century.
Hilbert’s problem failed to include topology , differential geometry, and other fields. It rarely involved applied mathematics except mathematical physics , and it was never expected that the development of computers would have a major impact on mathematics. The development of mathematics in the 20th century actually far exceeded the scope predicted by Hilbert.
Hilbert’s problems 1-6 are basic mathematics problems, 7-12 are number theory problems, 13-18 are algebra and geometry problems, and 19-23 are mathematical analysis .
