Indeed, in other cases, the mere statement of the problem may be
sufficient to keep a rather lot of mathematicians gainfully employed
for 99 years! A propos, there appears to be a solution (
http://arxiv.org/PS_cache/math/pdf/0303/0303109.pdf ) to the Poincaré
conjecture ( circa 1904;
http://www.wikipedia.org/wiki/Poincare_conjecture ) which goes like
this: "Suppose M is a smooth compact 3-dimensional manifold. if every
simple closed curve within M can be deformed continuously to a point,
does it follow that M can be deformed into a 3-sphere?" (answer: yes.
ok, nobody cares about this, but what the hay..)
