From Almighty Scholar to Chief Scientist

Chapter 53 You ask him if he wants to be my student

Something big has happened.

Something big has happened.

This was the only thought in Zhou Wu's mind at this time.

After reading this paper, he found that there was no problem with all the calculation processes, so perfect that he would applaud it.

Especially the function constructed by analytic continuation at the end made him even think of the process of learning Riemann and obtaining the Riemann ζ function by analytic continuation, which is really wonderful.

The only pity is that he doesn't know much about this aspect of knowledge, so he has no way to tell Lin Xiao that there is no problem with this paper, and he needs to ask other professors in the field of number theory in the college for help.

But no matter what, Lin Xiao's amazing talent in this thesis has already made him remember the student's name thoroughly.

Moreover, once it is finally confirmed that Lin Xiao's paper is correct, then the matter of publishing the "Annual of Mathematics" that Lin Xiao said will not be a problem at all.

This kind of important achievement, coupled with the unsolved problems in number theory, is inherently high-profile. I believe that the four top mathematics journals will be willing to show great enthusiasm to welcome this paper.

However, he has to find a professor first and then help Lin Xiao take a look.

Who to look for?
"It seems that Professor Xu Ji is here today, right?"

Zhou Wu thought of a name.

Xu Ji can be said to be a major pillar that supports their Mathematics major at Beijing University to always be the first in the country.

As a professor of the Algebra and Number Theory Department of Shangjing University, he is also the vice chairman of the Huaguo Mathematical Society. He also served as the dean of their School of Mathematical Sciences at Peking University before, but he did not continue to serve because of academic reasons.

As for his academic achievements, of course there are more. He is quite famous in the world. He has published papers in the four top journals before, and the rest of the non-big four TOP journals have published more.

All in all, this big cow is definitely their face, and it is estimated that he will be elected as an academician in two or three years.

The most important thing is that Xu Ji's main research is pure mathematics, and he is very experienced in number theory. It is very suitable to read Lin Xiao's paper.

Zhou Wu also believed that Xu Ji would be interested in this paper.

So he copied Lin Xiao's thesis to a USB flash drive, and went directly to Professor Xu Ji.

Soon, he arrived at Professor Xu Ji's office and knocked on the door.

"Please come in."

A voice came from inside, and then Zhou Wu walked in, and saw the old professor sitting on the desk, it was Xu Ji.

"Professor Xu." Zhou Wu greeted him respectfully.

Xu Ji looked up, smiled and said, "Director Zhou, Xiao Liang, pour a glass of water for Director Zhou."

One of Xu Ji's graduate students responded and poured Zhou Wu a glass of water.

"Thank you." Zhou Wu took the water, and said helplessly to Xu Ji: "Don't call me Director Zhou anymore, just call me by my name. If you really can't, you can call me Xiao Zhou."

In the face of this boss, he has to treat him with respect, even though he is a deputy director, his title is only an associate professor.

There is no shortage of directors and deputy directors in Beijing University. If you take a tile from the teaching building and throw it casually, the person who hits it may be a super expert.

Xu Ji smiled, and pointed to another graduate student, "That one is also called Xiao Zhou, so we won't be able to tell the difference."

Zhou Wu touched his nose, "Then just call me by my name."

"Okay, let's get down to business, what do you want to see me for?"

Zhou Wu also stopped gossiping, took out the USB flash drive, and said to Zhou Wu: "Here is a paper, I hope you can take a look."

Xu Ji took the USB flash drive, plugged it into the computer, and asked with a smile, "Oh? Did you write it recently?"

"No, it was written by a student. I'm a little uncertain, and I want to ask you to take a look."

Zhou Wu decided not to say that it was written by a high school student, because he wanted to see what kind of surprised expression Xu Ji would show when he knew about it later.

"Written by a student? Are you even sure?"

Xu Ji couldn't help being interested. Although Zhou Wu is still an associate professor, he still has academic ability to be elected as the deputy director. Of course, Zhou Wu is not a postgraduate tutor, so there is a high probability that this thesis is not a postgraduate thesis. Possibly an undergraduate thesis.

Zhou Wu: "In terms of number theory, I am not in this direction, and this student wrote it... Anyway, you can just read it."

"That's fine, I'll take a look."

Xu Ji smiled and nodded, then opened Zhou Wu's USB flash drive, quickly found Lin Xiao's thesis, and opened it.

As soon as he saw the title, Xu Ji knew that this paper was not easy.

Prove that there are infinitely many prime numbers in the Fibonacci sequence?

Now they can prove that there are infinitely many prime numbers in the natural number series and some other simple regular series, and prove that there are infinitely many prime numbers in other complex regular series, which are basically still unsolvable.

The Fibonacci sequence is certainly one of them.

It proves that although this problem is meaningless to reality, for pure mathematicians, most of them don't care whether this thing is meaningful, and some mathematicians are even proud of the fact that the mathematics they have researched has no practical use at all. And despise the kind of mathematicians who study applied mathematics.

Of course, Xu Ji is not so extreme, he still has some research on mathematics and physics.

He glanced at the number of pages in this thesis, more than 20 pages, it seemed that it was done seriously, but there was only the name 'Lin Xiao' on it, and it didn't indicate which class it was from.

He flipped through the draft paper and pen from the side, and asked at the same time: "Have you read it? Didn't find any flaws?"

"Let's not talk about flaws, I haven't even found a soft spot." Zhou Wu shook his head and said, "I even have to look through the book for some things in it. This student's foundation is so solid that I feel ashamed, so this Come to see you."

Xu Ji nodded, didn't say any more, concentrated on reading, and at the same time calculated along the lines of thought on the draft paper.

Time passed by every minute and every second, and Zhou Wu could still see Xu Ji nodding his head or frowning from time to time, and then wrote down a few more formulas on the draft paper to make the final calculation, then his brows stretched out again, and he continued to walk. look down.

All in all, Xu Ji didn't say a word.

If you don't say it, it means there is no problem.

In this way, around the penultimate page of the third page, Zhou Wu saw that Xu Ji worked out the brand new function constructed by Lin Xiao based on the ideas in the thesis.

Then he heard Xu Ji say with emotion: "Beautiful."

Obviously, Professor Xu Ji is also amazed by this brand new function.

Needless to say, Xu Ji quickly read the last few steps, and when he saw the last word "Zhengbi", he put down his pen, turned his head and said to Zhou Wu: "Which class is this Lin Xiao from? You ask him if he wants to be my student."
