I'll emphasize: math is not solved
Mathematics is an open and expanding system, not a closed set of puzzles. While famous problems like the Millennium Prize Problems and the Riemann Hypothesis exist, they are merely a few examples among thousands of open problems across all mathematical fields. Solving one problem often leads to new conjectures, questions, and even entire subfields, demonstrating that mathematics continuously grows rather than shrinks. The only aspect that might be considered "over" is the ego-centric view of mathematics, where the focus is on individual achievement rather than the collective advancement of the field.
This post uniquely emphasizes that solving mathematical problems expands the field by spawning new questions and subfields, unlike the common perception that solutions reduce the scope of mathematics.
