摘要

如果你证明了P=NP，你会怎么做?如果你发表了它，你可能会在一个被网络恐怖分子摧毁的世界里变得富有和出名。如果你不发表，别人可能会抢先一步。你能从中赚钱吗?马特·金斯伯格(Matt Ginsberg)的小说《Factor Man》巧妙地解决了这个问题。前提是某人(别名Factor Man)已经证明了P=NP，并且有一个非常好的计划，如何(1)赚钱，(2)不造成经济混乱。

Review of Factor Man by Matt Ginsberg

What would you do if you proved P=NP? If you publish it you might be rich and famous: : : in a world destroyed by cyber terrorists. If you don't publish it someone might beat you to it. Can you make money off of it? Matt Ginsberg's fictional book, Factor Man, grapples intelligently with this question. The premise is that someone (alias Factor Man) has proven P=NP and has a pretty good plan for how to (1) cash in, and (2) not create economic havoc.
