This case is somewhat strange because he&amp;#x27;s not the usual mathematical crank; he&amp;#x27;s actually a quite well-recognized economics researcher who is clearly mathematically competent. But for some reason he persists. (If you search his name, you can find his YouTube channel where he lectures on his RH work...)
