together with the corresponding zeros implied by the symmetries of the Riemann zeta function. Because <math>1/N\neq \frac{1}{2}</math>, the result constituted a counterexample to the Riemann hypothesis. Independent verification of the zero subsequently established the hypothesis to be false, resolving what had widely been regarded as the foremost outstanding problem in mathematics.

At 16:20:22 UTC, the first Fermat prime greater than 65,537 was announced. The number, <math>F_{M}=2^{2^{3477214914839}}+1=3.485272\ldots \times {10}^{6.292\ldots \times {10}^{1046745990736}},\</math> ends in …2625709057. Contemporary media frequently referred to the number as <math>F_{5}</math>, owing to its description as the first Fermat prime discovered after the five classical examples. This notation was mathematically ambiguous, as <math>F_{5}</math> conventionally denotes the fifth-indexed Fermat ''number'', <math>2^{2^{5}}+1=4294967297</math>, which is composite. Nevertheless, extensive early publicity resulted in <math>F_{5}</math> becoming a common informal designation for the newly discovered prime. The alternative notation <math>F_{M}</math> was subsequently adopted in mathematical literature to distinguish it from the conventional Fermat-number indexing.

The number is important as it is the number of sides of the first new constructible polygon found since 65537-gon.

The extraordinary concentration of major results on 29 January 2030 was widely regarded as unprecedented in the history of mathematics. Within a single day, several long-standing problems—including the existence of odd perfect numbers, Goldbach's conjecture, the Collatz conjecture and the Riemann hypothesis—were resolved or overturned, alongside the discovery of the first Fermat prime since the seventeenth century. The event was considered particularly remarkable because the results were not merely simultaneous: successive discoveries repeatedly supplied the mathematical objects used in later ones, with the newly identified numbers N_{1}, G, F_{M}, N_{2}and Cbecoming interconnected across otherwise largely unrelated fields of number theory. The resulting sequence of announcements received extensive international media coverage and became known collectively as the Day of Mathematics, with contemporary commentary frequently comparing the experience of following the discoveries in real time to a major breaking-news event rather than the conventional publication of mathematical research.
At 16:34:45 UTC, software used in the ongoing search for odd perfect numbers incorporated <math>F_{M}</math> into its search parameters and identified it as the special prime of a second odd perfect number, subsequently designated <math>N_{2}</math>. In abridged notation, <math>N_{2}\approx 6.189237272\times {10}^{5.4181\times {10}^{1046746112244}}</math>, with final digits …3737117649. In the Eulerian factorization of <math>N_{2}</math>, <math>F_{M}</math> occurs to the 65,537th power, <math>N_{2}=F_{M}^{65537}m^{2}</math>, where <math>m</math> is odd and coprime to <math>F_{M}</math>. The exponent 65,537 is itself a Fermat prime, coincidentally.
In parallel, at 16:40:00 UTC, Kindred, an artificial-intelligence research system operated since 2028 with the objective of resolving the {{W|Collatz conjecture}}, incorporated the newly reported factorization of <math>N_{2}</math> into its search. Kindred determined that the second prime factor of <math>N_{2}</math>, subsequently designated <math>C</math>, was a counterexample to the conjecture. Its Collatz orbit was shown to be unbounded and therefore never to reach 1. The result constituted the first known non-Collatzian positive integer and disproved the Collatz conjecture.
At 16:46:24 UTC, the values of <math>F_{M}</math> and <math>C</math> were incorporated into a further search conducted by Solace. The system subsequently identified a second non-trivial zero of the Riemann zeta function lying outside the critical line, satisfying <math>\zeta \left(\frac{1}{F_{M}}+Ci\right)=0</math>. The discovery provided a second explicit counterexample to the Riemann hypothesis, following the zero identified earlier that day. The real and imaginary components of the new zero were thus determined respectively by two prime factors of <math>N_{2}</math>, linking the Fermat-prime, odd-perfect-number, Collatz and Riemann-hypothesis results within the same sequence of discoveries.
