In mathematics, a conjecture is a conclusion or proposition based on incomplete information, for which no proof has been found.
Conjectures such as the Riemann hypothesis (still a conjecture) or Fermat's Last Theorem (which was a conjecture until proven in 1995) have shaped much of mathematical history as new areas of mathematics are developed in order to prove them.
