We will show that the famous, intractible 1959 Kadison-Singer problem in $C^{*}$-algebras is equivalent to fundamental unsolved problems in a dozen areas of research in pure mathematics, applied mathematics and Engineering. This gives all these areas common ground on which to interact as well as explaining why each of these areas has volumes of literature on their respective problems without a satisfactory resolution. In each of these areas we will reduce the problem to the minimum which needs to be proved to solve their version of Kadison-Singer. In some areas we will prove what we believe will be the strongest results ever available in the case that Kadison-Singer fails. Finally, we will give some directions for constructing a counter-example to Kadison-Singer.
