Title: The Knuth Prize Lecture: The Stories Behind the Results

Abstract:

I will present a number of stories about some results that I think highlight how results get proved and how they do not. These will span problems from almost all areas of theory, and will include both successes and failures. I hope that beyond the actual results you will enjoy and hopefully profit from the stories.
