From the Paper

A Beautiful Mind is a movie based on a famous mathematician John Forbes Nash who suffered from paranoid schizophrenia which is a mental disorder. John Nash was a genius of a mathematician who made major contributions in the field of mathematics by proving Brouwer’s fixed point theorem (Russel, 2004). He broke Riemann’s one of the most complicated mathematical problems. Game theory was his mathematical invention. He solved complicated mathematical problems with ease that many mathematicians deemed unsolvable. His extra ordinary mathematical career was jeopardized by Paranoid Schizophrenia on and off which resulted in several months of delusional and vague mental conditions paralyzing him completely. Initially, he was not even aware of the disease but when the condition deteriorated it started affecting his performance.
