title: Hilbert's twenty-fourth problem
text: Hilbert's twenty-fourth problem is a mathematical problem that was not published as part of the list of 23 problems but was included in David Hilbert's original notes. The problem asks for a criterion of simplicity in mathematical proofs and the development of a proof theory with the power to prove that a given proof is the simplest possible. The 24th problem was rediscovered by German historian Rüdiger Thiele in 2000, noting that Hilbert did not include the 24th problem in the lecture presentin
