A method for finding primes.
What math problem if solved tomorrow would have the greatest immediate impact on humanity?
>A method for finding primes.
That already exists

I really don't consider supercomputers plugging values into the the Mersenne equation (really as old as Euclid at least) and checking to see if factoring is possible a method for finding primes.
Proving (or disproving?) the Riemann hypothesis
>Wrong, not really.
Wrong.
Those are all sieving methods. If you actually knew anything about number theory, you'd know that there is no deterministic method for knowing exactly where a prime will exist. I came up with my own series formula but I realized it's basically useless.

How is this a sieve?
