Advances on fundamental mathematical problems seldom emerge like Athena
from the head of Zeus.  Historically, what occurs to one mathematician
tends to occur to others within a short time span, because the
overwhelming bulk of the knowledge base from which they work is shared
and public.

But sure, that could happen.
