AMS credits Spanish mathematicians Cordoba and Martinez-Zoroa for key Navier-Stokes strategy before OpenAI's final steps

- The American Mathematical Society called the Navier-Stokes progress a milestone, tracing the credit chain: from Navier, Stokes, Leray, and Ladyzhenskaya to the recent breakthroughs of Córdoba and Martínez-Zoroa (the strategic groundwork), then Alpöge and Buckmaster assisted by new technologies, with final steps by OpenAI mathematicians.
- The two are Spanish mathematicians at ICMAT (CSIC) and CUNEF; Terence Tao and the AMS credit them with the key strategy, yet mainstream coverage is nearly absent.
- AMS president Ravi Vakil and CEO John Meier stress that the achievement and its process will bear fruit for a long time.
