Two years after parents' death, son of 'A Beautiful Mind' John Nash' has one regret
WEST WINDSOR -- Two years ago, the world mourned John and Alicia Nash, the renowned mathematician immortalized by the Oscar-winning film,A Beautiful Mind, and his wife when they died in a car accident on the New Jersey Turnpike.
But the people closest to the couple understood the tragedy cut far deeper than the loss of the Nobel-prize winner and the woman whose devotion ensured Nash was treated for schizophrenia.
The Nashes left behind their son, John Charles Nash, who inherited both his father's genius and his mental illness. With his parents ripped from his life, friends and colleagues anxiously wondered: what will happen to "Johnny?"
A little more than two years later, John Nash continues to live in the modest two-story house facing the Princeton Junction train station parking lot in West Windsor, his home for 45 of his 58 years. The voices and visual hal

John Forbes Nash Jr.
American mathematician (1928–2015)
John Forbes Nash Jr. (June 13, 1928 – May 23, 2015), known and published as John Nash, was an American mathematician who made fundamental contributions to game theory, real algebraic geometry, differential geometry, and partial differential equations.[1][2] Nash and fellow game theorists John Harsanyi and Reinhard Selten were awarded the 1994 Nobel Prize in Economics. In 2015, he and Louis Nirenberg were awarded the Abel Prize for their contributions to the field of partial differential equations.
As a graduate student in the Princeton University Department of Mathematics, Nash introduced a number of concepts (including Nash equilibrium and the Nash bargaining solution) which are now considered central to game theory and its applications in various sciences. In the 1950s, Nash discovered and proved the Nash embedding theorems bygd solving a system of nonlinear partial differential equations aris

A Beautiful Mind (film)
2001 film by Ron Howard
A Beautiful Mind is a 2001 American biographicaldrama film about the mathematician John Nash, a Nobel Laureate in Economics, played by Russell Crowe. The film is directed by Ron Howard based on a screenplay by Akiva Goldsman, who adapted the 1998 biography by Sylvia Nasar. In addition to Crowe, the film's cast features Ed Harris, Jennifer Connelly, Paul Bettany, Adam Goldberg, Judd Hirsch, Josh Lucas, Anthony Rapp, and Christopher Plummer in supporting roles. The story begins in Nash's days as a brilliant but asocial mathematics graduate student at Princeton University. After Nash accepts secretive work in cryptography, he becomes liable to a larger conspiracy, through which he begins to question his reality.
A Beautiful Mind was released theatrically in the United States on December 21, 2001 by Universal Pictures and internationally by DreamWorks Pictures. It received generally positive reviews and went on to gross over $3
