Mathematicians (peculiar ones)

I know this will get zero traction, but let's see.
Mathematics-related poll.

Erdős is the only one I'm familiar with

[Mexican Wolf]

Erdős simply for being part of the bizarreness that's the Erdős-Bacon number:

(Not that I have anything against Nash; I just don't know much about him outside of A Beautiful Mind, which I've never seen, and some vague knowledge of game theory.)

[Alcibiades]

Erdos is fantastic for his bizarre life story, although Nash’s contributions to mathematics and related fields, particularly economics, were far more profound.

[Kyng]

Erdős, purely because of how quirky he was.

Fun fact: when I was at university, my final exams finished a full week before I was due to go home. I spent that week trying to prove the Erdős conjecture on arithmetic progressions. Needless to say, I got absolutely nowhere.

Good thing that trying to prove a famous unsolved conjecture didn't make you lose your sanity!

[some say Nash started to develop schizofrenia while trying to solve Riemann's hypothesis]
