Subject: Announcement of solution to 3x + 1 Problem

A Solution to the 3x + 1 Problem



I continue to believe I have solved this very difficult problem.  In

more than two years, I have received no claims of errors in the first

two proofs of the 3x + 1 Conjecture (a proof solves the Problem) from

visitors to the paper.  Recently, I discovered a third proof of the

Conjecture that is only four pages long!  No claims of errors so far.



But no journal will consider the paper because of the difficulty of

the Problem, and the fact that I am not an academic mathematician (my

degree is in computer science, and most of my career has been spent as

a researcher in the computer industry).



So I am looking for a mathematician who will help me prepare the paper

for submission to a journal, and who will write the editor stating the

mathematician's belief that the paper is worthy of publication.



The paper is "A Solution to the 3x + 1 Problem", on occampress.com.
