From Almighty Scholar to Chief Scientist

Chapter 173 Proving Success
Stanford University, in Professor Kaymanian's office.

Kayman is also working on how to perfect his method, and then completely reduce the limit originally limited to 36 to 2, and finally complete his proof.

After more than two weeks of research like Lin Xiao, his progress is still relatively slow. After all, this is not so easy to get done.

And here he is conducting his own research, and his graduate students are chatting quietly.

"Huh? Look, is this Lin Xiao?"

A boy was swiping his phone when he suddenly saw a video and waved to several other people.

"Lin Xiao?"

After several other people heard it, they all joined together.

Of course they both knew what happened to their professor and Lin Xiao some time ago, and it was difficult for them to comment on this matter. After all, it was their professor, but they still knew in their hearts that it was their professor who was wrong.

If you quoted someone else's method, you should just admit it openly, so why not admit it obliquely?

Especially since that's Lin Xiao!

Even Professor Deligne of Princeton University praised it.

However, in order for them to graduate smoothly, they still gave up expressing their views. Even if some reporters wanted to interview them, they just pretended to ask three questions and didn't answer anything.

But now, after hearing about Lin Xiao, they naturally paid attention.

Could it be that Lin Xiao has a new view on the twin prime number conjecture?

However, when they saw the video, they were all stunned, kung fu master Lin Xiao?

"what is this?"

"That he suddenly woke up?"

After epiphany is translated into English, there are many phrases that can be used to describe it, so in their concept, they are not aware of what kind of concept epiphany refers to.

Of course, if it is paired with the word "Enlightenment" typed in Chinese, they will feel confused.

Especially seeing Lin Xiao standing in front of so many people, facing the Mona Lisa, looking immersed in it, unaffected by foreign objects, in their eyes, it must be Huaguo Kung Fu .

A graduate student couldn't help but said: "Hua Guo Kung Fu is so mysterious."

Everyone else nodded in agreement.

Not only mysterious, but also magical.

So in the future, it is better not to mess with the Huaguo students in their school. Maybe when they fight, they will become this kind of kung fu master with an epiphany?
However, there was a girl who didn't have so much oriental mysticism in her heart. She looked at the appearance inside and suddenly said, "Do you remember that photo?"

"What picture?"

others asked.

The girl took out her mobile phone and found a favorite post.

"Look, this is the picture."

Several people looked over and immediately remembered.

This photo is exactly the one called "He is Approaching the Truth". In this photo, Lin Xiao looks down in thought in the eyes of everyone, which makes everyone amazed.

This photo is quite well-known in the mathematics community, because everyone will definitely see this photo when they understand the process of Goldbach's conjecture being proved, and occasionally see some related popular science articles or videos on the Internet. Sometimes, this photo is indispensable. I heard that the photographer of this photo has participated in a certain photography competition, and sent this photo as his entry photo, and it seems that he has won an award.

However, does this photo have anything to do with the video about Lin Xiao?

"What happened to this photo?"

The girl looked seriously and said, "Don't you think that Lin Xiao in the photo, and Lin Xiao in the video now, are in this state of 'enlightenment'?"

Hearing the girl's explanation, the others immediately thought of this.

"You mean..."

"That's right! Now Lin Xiao is likely to make another big news, maybe it's solving the twin prime number conjecture!"

Solve the twin prime conjecture!

Several people were shocked.

It seems that it is very possible? !
But at this moment, a voice came from beside them, "What are you talking about? Lin Xiao? What happened to the twin prime number conjecture?"

The hearts of several graduate students suddenly jumped, and when they turned their heads to look, they saw their professor walking over.

"No...nothing!"

They shook their heads hastily, who would dare to mention Lin Xiao and the twin prime number conjecture in front of their professors!

However, Kayman still looked serious, and continued to ask: "You said that Lin Xiao solved the twin prime number conjecture? Tell me about it?"

Facing the professor's questioning, they had no choice but to conjecture.

Hearing what they said, Kayman immediately sneered and said, "Why do you believe such things?"

"Oh? Forget the people and the environment around you, and then enter this so-called immersive state, and then you can come up with a mathematical conjecture?"

Kayman shook his head, "You might as well think about your thesis carefully, and don't focus on this kind of thing."

Then, he turned around and walked back to his desk.

Seeing that the professor was not angry, several graduate students looked at each other in blank dismay, but finally breathed a sigh of relief, and then stopped discussing this matter.

However, what they didn't realize was that after Kayman returned to his seat, he frowned directly.

As he said just now, he is just maintaining his image in front of his students, but he is actually very clear in his heart that when some mathematicians are solving problems, they can indeed suddenly fall into this kind of state that can be called a burst of inspiration. The typical situation is the situation before Lin Xiao proved Goldbach's conjecture, that is, the picture in "He is approaching the truth".

And now Lin Xiao has entered such a state in front of a painting like "Mona Lisa", not in other places related to mathematics. Although this is somewhat incomprehensible, it does not mean that it is impossible to get along with Math doesn't matter anymore.

Maybe, or very likely, Lin Xiao can really prove the twin prime number conjecture?
Kayman began to worry in his heart.

What I said in the media before, if Lin Xiao is allowed to complete the proof in the end, then he will probably become a joke in the mathematics world.

He turned his attention to his own research again. Where can he start, and then complete the proof before Lin Xiao?

Even if you can't complete the proof first, you can do it at the same time!

Back then, Newton and Leibniz also came up with calculus at the same time, and later generations recognize that it is the joint achievement of the two of them.

So Kayman went through all his arguments from beginning to end, and suddenly, he found a node in a corner that he had ignored before.

After simple thinking and derivation in his mind, his eyes suddenly brightened: "This direction seems to be possible! Starting from here, I should be able to really improve my method!"

Moreover, according to his estimation, it seems that he will not need much effort?

The more he thought about it, the brighter his eyes became.

Sure enough, he said that his method can clearly prove the twin prime number conjecture thoroughly, and there can be no problem, and now, he finally found the problem!
So, he quickly brought his draft paper and pen, and began to write down his arguments.

……

Time passes quickly.

three days later.

In Kayman's office, he raised his head excitedly. Although the bloodshot eyes showed his current fatigue, no matter what, he finally proved it!

I scratched my messy hair, didn't wash for three days, and even slept for six or seven hours a day, but in the end, all these sacrifices were worth it.

Then, he turned his head to look at his student and said, "Bru, has there been any news about that Lin Xiao recently?"

Bruce, who was suddenly caught by cue, looked up and saw the scary looking face of Professor Kayman, and quickly replied: "No...no!"

A few days ago, the enthusiasm about "Kung Fu Master Lin Xiao" has stopped, so there is really no news about Lin Xiao recently.

Professor Kayman suddenly laughed, and then said to several puzzled students: "I have proved the twin prime number conjecture."

Hearing what Kayman said, his students were all surprised.

"Professor, really?"

"of course it's true."

"So, now I need you guys to help me put all the proofs on the computer," Kayman said.

"Very happy!"

Caymanian students all shouted excitedly.

Their professor really proved the twin prime number conjecture, which means that the previous things will disappear, everyone, and all the media will not mention the previous things, and their professors will also directly enter the Among the top mathematicians.

And as students of Caymanian, they will naturally enjoy better resources. When they go out in the future, as long as they tell their friends that their tutor is the prover of the twin prime number conjecture, they will also enjoy the envious eyes of others.

So, they all rushed forward and eagerly helped their teacher organize his thesis.

Seeing this scene, Kayman showed a satisfied smile on his face. In addition, it was time to announce this matter to the outside world.

So he found the phone number of Myron, a reporter for the Los Angeles Daily News, and called.

"Myron, I have big news to tell you. I have successfully proved the twin prime number conjecture..."

……

Ecole Normale Supérieure de Paris.

In Lin Xiao's dormitory.

[So, we can conclude that there are infinitely many twin prime numbers. 】

[The certificate is completed. 】

Writing the last two characters stroke by stroke, the pen that had been fiddling with for many days finally stopped.

However, it should be regarded as a hero, but it was just thrown on the table by its owner, then rolled a few times, and stopped at the side.

Of course, it is impossible for the pen to have any complaints. After being fiddled with like this and proving a great theory, it is obviously considered a "successful penman" among pens.

Lin Xiao obviously didn't have the energy to care about the feeling of the pen. He yawned a long way, and watched his proof process with a smile on his face.

Finally, it proved successful.

Without the bonus of the sage state, it is still a bit difficult to solve Goldbach's conjecture in more than ten hours like last time.

At this time, the voice of the system also sounded: "Congratulations to the host for proving the twin prime number conjecture. Considering the performance of the host in the process, this time rewards 1000 experience points, 30 truth points, [cash reward * 1]."

Hearing this voice, Lin Xiao was stunned: "1000 experience points? Didn't Goldbach conjecture reward 800 experience points?"

The system gave an explanation this time: "Because the host has achieved a breakthrough in his old method, the new method will have more significance, and the sage's time is not used as an aid in the process, and more experience is rewarded."

"So this is ah!"

Lin Xiao nodded clearly. It is expected that using the sage time will reduce the rewards obtained. After all, the system also said that the rewards are determined according to his performance in the process of solving the problem. Using the sage It is true that to a certain extent it is not accomplished by his current ability.

"However, what is [cash request]?"

At this time, Lin Xiao became interested in this unknown thing again.

The name sounds awesome.

The system replied: "[Current object request], the host can choose an object in reality, and then request the production process of the object. The knowledge obtained will be based on the truth foundation of the civilization where the host is located."

Hearing the system's explanation, Lin Xiao couldn't help being taken aback.

"Things in reality, and then ask for the process of their production? Based on the truth foundation of the civilization where they are... That is equivalent to saying that you can't know some unknown theories."

Suddenly, his eyes lit up: "What if I want to know the creation process of the universe?"
