The Kelmans-Seymour conjecture has puzzled mathematicians for nearly 40 years. Now, a team from Georgia Tech believes they have finally found a solution to the decades-old problem. 

We speak with Georgia Tech Mathematics Professor Xingxing Yu and graduate student Dawei He about how they came up with the proof to this math mystery.
