The future of mathematics is a topic that has
been written about by many notable mathematicians. Typically, they are
motivated by a desire to set a research agenda to direct efforts to specific
problems, or a wish to clarify, update and extrapolate the way that
subdisciplines relate to the general discipline of mathematics and its
possibilities. Examples historical and recent include Felix Klein's Erlangen program, Hilbert's problems, Langlands
program, and the Millennium
Prize Problems. In the Mathematics Subject Classification section 01Axx History of
mathematics and mathematicians, the subsection 01A67 is titled Future
prospectives.
