Abstract
Turbulence is still an unsolved problem in classical physics. When David Hilbert (1862–1943), one of the leading mathematicians at the turn to the 20th century, gave his famous lecture in 1900 at the Sorbonne in Paris about the remaining big problems in mathematics, the solution for turbulence was one of them. In 2000 the Clay Mathematics Institute was repeating the Hilbert problems, now with a 1 million dollar prize for the solution of one of seven problems to be solved within the next century (Hilbert had presented ten problems at his lecture, although he as 23 in mind.)
