I was looking for a list of theorems that disappointed mathematicians, in the sense that some disgruntlement regarding the fact that the theorem in consideration being true/false was notable. An example could be a theorem whose negation was notably hoped to be true or a theorem which ended up implying the negation of statements notably hoped to be true. The only examples I know are Godel’s incompleteness theorems, and I was hoping to know if there are any other similar examples.

Thank you.

I was looking for a list of theorems that disappointed mathematicians, in the sense that they were "disappointed by reality”. The only examples I believe might fall in this category are Godel’s incompleteness theorems, and I was hoping to know if there are any similar examples.
