From Almighty Scholar to Chief Scientist

Chapter 55 Sending Journals

"Ah...Professor Xu Ji?"

Hearing Zhou Wu's words, Lin Xiao couldn't help being stunned.

Zhou Wu laughed and said: "Professor Xu Ji is the face of our mathematics department. If he is willing to take you with him, it will be very good for you. Of course, you don't have to think about it so much now. Take care of your high school. After the stage is over, you can think about it when you come to university.”

"Well, I see." Lin Xiao responded.

Afterwards, he chatted with Zhou Wu for a few words, and then hung up the phone. Lin Xiao became curious about the professor named Xu Ji, so he searched the Internet, and then saw his long list of honors and social positions .

I won’t talk about the outstanding youth of the Changjiang Scholars. Du Niang has to use several tables to list them.

"Boss."

I sighed in my heart, such a powerful boss said that he would accept me as a student, can I expand a little?
"Well, then reward me with a delicious meal today."

Thinking this way in his heart, Lin Xiao couldn't help but look forward to what to eat later.

Of course, before that, he had to send the paper over.

Logged in to my Koukou mailbox, and then directly sent both the Chinese and English versions of the paper to[email protected].

This is the mailbox for receiving manuscripts of the Annual Journal of Mathematics. Friends who are interested can give it a try.

Since the content of the article is only reviewed first, there is not much requirement for the text, and the PDF file is sent instead of the source file.

After the journal editorial department accepts the submission, the next work will be carried out.

These are all Lin Xiao read after going to the official website.

After sending the paper, he couldn't help but look forward to it.

After my thesis is published, will I have to give myself more scholarships when I go to Peking University?

To say the least, there must be a million. Didn't that classmate Liu get a reward of one million?

However, this is a bit suspenseful, after all, I haven't entered Shangjing University yet.

Of course, considering that I will join Shangjing University as a person who has completely independently published papers in the four major mathematics journals, I heard that I can generally be a professor at any school in the country with my level. Then maybe the reward is not just 100 million?
Lin Xiao couldn't help having beautiful fantasies about the future.

It's not shabby to earn money.

Although he has ideals and beliefs in his heart, but on the premise of not violating his ideals and beliefs, human beings are economic animals. Of course, he cannot let go of the opportunity to make money.

After fantasizing for a while, he did not forget to send Xu Hongbing the good news.

In any case, they were worried that Beijing University's teachers would steal the papers if they were not upright.

Of course, after all, there is another saying that it is necessary to guard against others, and what should be guarded against must be guarded against, especially his paper is so valuable that it can casually make a person gain great honor.

Now it seems that the result is finally good.

Soon, Xu Hongbing also sent him good news, and then he waited to pass the review and publish it.

"Well, let's go eat now."

Lin Xiao looked at the time. It was twelve o'clock at noon, and his parents were still at work, so he could only go out to eat.

As for cooking by himself, it’s not that he can’t do it. It’s okay to make fried rice or noodles, but the key is that there are no leftovers at home. Not full.

In the past few days, Lin Xiao found that his appetite was much larger than before, and he ate more meals. He estimated that this was because of the body strengthening function brought about by the health capsule.

As the body becomes stronger, the energy consumption increases, and naturally, the appetite also increases. At the same time, because Lin Xiao's brain is highly developed, and he often thinks about problems, this also consumes more energy.

All in all, Lin Xiao's appetite now is much higher than before.

Fortunately, he doesn't have to worry about gaining weight.

He's the kind of guy who doesn't get fat no matter what he eats.

So without further ado, he left the house.

……

Time passes quickly.

Princeton University, United States, Department of Mathematics Building, Fine-Hall.

As a world-renowned university, Princeton University has bred more than 60 Nobel Prize winners, [-] Fields Medal winners, [-] Turing Award winners and so on.

There is no mathematics award in the Nobel Prize, and the Fields Medal is called the Nobel Prize in mathematics.

Moreover, the Fields Medal is reviewed every four years, and the age of the winners is limited. Only mathematicians aged 40 and below who have made outstanding achievements in a certain field of mathematics can receive the award, so The difficulty of getting a Fields Medal is no less than a Nobel Prize.

But it can also be seen from this that Princeton University, which has produced fifteen Fields Medal winners, has such strong strength in mathematics.

In addition to teaching, this is also the headquarters of one of the four top journals in mathematics, the "Annual of Mathematics".

The editor of "Annual Journal of Mathematics" also works here.

At this time, an editor named David was flipping through their submission mailboxes, looking for a certain submitted paper.

But after looking back and forth for a long time, he still couldn't find it, so he couldn't help cursing: "My God, these people are crazy, can't they check whether their papers are eligible to be published in the Annals of Mathematics?"

Every day they can receive dozens or even dozens of papers, but after filtering out the nonsense among them, two or three truly valuable papers left behind can be considered good. However, even if there are two or three good papers, It may not be able to be included by them, they only publish sixty or seventy articles a year.

For example, in the January issue of this year, there was a paper called "The Gopakumar-Vafa Formula for Simultaneous Manifolds", but it was sent to them in 2013. It took one or two years of sewing and repairing, and another year of queuing. Published successfully.

But who made them the Annals of Mathematics?

No matter how brilliant your paper is, as long as it is not so brilliant that it will shock the editor or reviewers, just wait quietly in line.

As for what David is looking for now, it is a paper that Peter Sarnak, a professor in the Department of Mathematics, commissioned him to help review in advance. This paper seems to be very powerful. Multiple prime numbers.

As the editor of the Annals of Mathematics, and a researcher in the Department of Mathematics of Princeton University, he is still very interested in this kind of number theory papers.

Probably all mathematicians in the world have tried to study prime number problems. After all, most of these problems are quite simple and clear from the expression, full of mathematical beauty, such as Goldbach's conjecture.

However, it has stumped countless mathematicians, making many people finally choose to give up.

Even if you study Lie groups, symplectic geometry, and Hilbert spaces, don't you get more results than this thing?
Of course, they also admire those bigwigs who have achieved results on the prime number problem.

So David is very curious now, which big guy has completed the proof of this problem.
