> In particular, Astra’s key mathematical step combined ideas first found in two papers from 2016 and 2019. Andreas Thom, a mathematician at the Dresden University of Technology, who co-authored both papers, summarized the result on MathOverflow.com, calling it “creative and at the same time elementary.” Looking at the mathoverflow post, he says: ``` I think it is too early to judge if this construction will serve any other purpose than providing the right framework to apply these earlier results efficiently. On the other side, I was looking myself for such a mechanism ever since we wrote the paper in 2019 and admire the efficiency of this construction. ``` So it maybe is a pretty interesting result.
