TL;DR: Arnabels invitation is inspired in part by Hilbert's list of 1900 (see e.g. [Browder, 1976]) and I have used that list to help design this essay.
Abstract: V. I. Arnold, on behalf of the International Mathematical Union has written to a number of mathematicians with a suggestion that they describe some great problems for the next century. This report is my response. Arnold's invitation is inspired in part by Hilbert's list of 1900 (see e.g. [Browder, 1976]) and I have used that list to help design this essay. I have listed 18 problems, chosen with these criteria:
