The Zariski cancellation problem, a fundamental problem in analytical geometry, was posed in 1949 and was disproved by Neena Gupta in 2014. In her own words, "the cancellation problem asks that if you have cylinders over two geometric structures, and that have similar forms, can one conclude that the original base structures have similar forms?” [Gudipati]
