If I had to make a single choice it might be him or Samuelson. |thread= {{Tweet |image=Eric profile picture.jpg |nameurl=https://x.com/EricRWeinstein/status/1620286139742683137 |name=Eric Weinstein |usernameurl=https://x.com/ericweinstein |username=ericweinstein |content=@NathanB60857242 [[Fran莽ois Divisia]] or [[Ken Arrow]] or [[Paul Samuelson]] or [[Satoshi Nakamoto|Satoshi]] or [[Ronald Coase]] etc.... would be easy to defend. But Graciela Chichilnisky or Bert Balk would be more interesting offbeat choices I could defend. I don't think they got their due for what is coming in mathematical econ. |timestamp=5:01 AM 路 Jan 31, 2023 }} {{Tweet |image=Eric profile picture.jpg |nameurl=https://x.com/EricRWeinstein/status/1620287509451386880 |name=Eric Weinstein |usernameurl=https://x.com/ericweinstein |username=ericweinstein |content=@NathanB60857242 But perhaps the most interesting choice would be George Soros. He told me he didn't know how to express himself mathematically...so he never got his due. I believe that the participating and cognitive functions of Reflexivity are actually waiting to be formalized.

My impression is that Nash upgraded the Brower fixed point theorem that Morgenstern & VonNeumann had already applied to two player scenarios to the Kakutani. As such it鈥檚 a more practical, but less brilliant contribution than V-M closer to a market than a game. |timestamp=2:17 AM 路 Feb 01, 2023 }} {{Tweet |image=Eric profile picture.jpg |nameurl=https://x.com/EricRWeinstein/status/1620608140453761025 |name=Eric Weinstein |usernameurl=https://x.com/ericweinstein |username=ericweinstein |content=@ks_kulk @NathanB60857242 I鈥檇 give the edge to VonNeumann for applying topology in an unexpected way. But don鈥檛 get me started on the Nash embedding theorem. A singular, towering freakish achievement.
