17yr old maths genius

I saw this in yesterdays paper about a 17 year old student.

Quote:

Ivan Zelich is just 17 but he has developed a maths theory that can calculate problems faster than a computer, particularly in intergalactic travel patterns, with hopes the theory will be able to be applied to how the universe works.

He is now one of the youngest people to have been published in the International Journal of Geometry.

Try this - This is the full link but I truncated it, maybe this will work, otherwise google search Ivan Zelich

The story reads like it was written by the fashion editor How hard can it be to "calculate problems?"

Heres a link to the actual paper:
IVAN ZELICH and XUMING LIANG – "Generalisations of the properties of the Neuberg cubic to the Euler pencil of isopivotal cubics"
http://ijgeometry.com/product/ivan-z...ivotal-cubics/

(I can't even understand the title, let alone the paper - it's back to the Fashion pages for me!)

The title is easy to understand, what I don't get is fashion.

Tried to read that paper, if I was still at High School in Year 12. I probably would understand it, but at 65 years - gogglygoop.
