  • beauty
  • reasoning
  • the unexpected...??
It involves space and numbers and the???? way these are understood, spending time building and studying certain patterns and structures, and solving problems which lie at the heart of the subject. These may be built for a particular purpose, namely, to understand and solve a deep mathematical problem, real world problems, or for their elegance.

After thousands of years of mathematical research, one may ask:

Are there still open problems and challenges in mathematics?

YES!

Mathematics research is driven by the formulation of intriguing problems and the discovery of creative solutions. Often through finding solutions, or even not being able to solve a problem, one uncovers interesting questions. These often provide insight into problems in areas of application. Sometimes, Mathematics not only leads scientific and technological advances, it also follows them.
