Please, what does that mean for Maxwell equations? For electromagnetism? (Wikipedia redirects Maxwell's conjecture to Maxwell equations). | ||

The Maxwell conjecture is a toy problem. The existence or nonexistence of a bound on the number of equilibrium points in an electrostatic arrangement of point charges doesn’t change much. I say that as an EE but not a specialist in electromagnetism. | ||

> what does that mean for Maxwell equations? Nothing. They're still just as valid as they were before. > For electromagnetism? In practical terms, nothing significant. It's not going to change how anyone builds devices that use electromagnetism. | ||
