I recently heard that there was a workshop on Inter-universal Teichmuller theory in the Clay institute from 7-11 December 2015.This field of mathematics offers a potential proof of the abc conjecture.If anyone knows, what is the progress of the confirmation of Mochizuki's papers?

I attended a talk by Brian Conrad at my University recently regarding the $abc-$Conjecture. He informed us that the only people who have the faintest idea about Mochizuki's proof are Mochizuki himself and some of his closest understudies who claim its validity. Apparently they are completely unable to explain the work to outsiders. You may have already known that.

Here is a link to Conrad's own words: http://mathbabe.org/2015/12/15/notes-on-the-oxford-iut-workshop-by-brian-conrad/.
