From small town scholar to chief scientist

Chapter 113 Boiling Global Mathematicians

In the following time, Zhou Yi was busy writing papers while concentrating on being a scientific research assistant.

Zhou Yi can just solve Liu Qingfeng's technical problems.

In particular, the key technology of graphic and text recognition in complex scenes is the conversion of a handwritten paper into LaTeX code output conceived by Zhou Yi.

It can only be said that the strength of the team is still strong.

This gave Zhou Yi the idea of ​​expanding the team.

In Yuda, there are actually many talents, especially those from the School of Computer Science and the School of Mathematics.

Many masters in mathematics are engaged in artificial intelligence, and they can poach many people if they want to poach people.

The premise is to be able to afford the salary.

Zhou Yi thought for a while, but forgot it. For at least a year, Xunfei's doctorate in mathematics would not be able to fully understand his thesis.

Secondly, even after understanding it, it will take trial and error time to convert it into an application.

Just do a good job in the technology of image-text recognition first.

April 25.

Zhou Yi decided to take refuge in the two papers he had written.

"Proof of Kepler's Conjecture",
"Proof of Newton's Problem".

In fact, two papers can be combined into one, on one paper, but they are separated for the sake of clearing tasks.

Publishing one more top-level mathematics journal will give you an extra bargaining chip for your future self.

The paper "Proof of Kepler's Conjecture" was submitted by Zhou Yi to the "Journal of the Mathematics Society of Magnesium",
Zhou Yi estimated that it would take some time to study the mathematics in the country of Magnesium before he could understand it, and he might not be able to understand it by then. Yuda would also hold a press conference and let himself explain it in person.

The paper "Proof of Newton's Problem" was submitted to "New Advances in Mathematics".

The headquarters of "New Advances in Mathematics" is in Germany. What Zhou Yi thought was,

The proof of Kepler's conjecture is for the people of Magnesium to verify, and the proof of Newton's problem is for the Europeans to verify.

This is a reasonable allocation.

Zhou Yi secretly praised his wit.

As for when the manuscript can be submitted, it depends on the level of the reviewers.

Zhou Yi conservatively estimated that the mathematicians who studied Kepler's conjecture were probably the ones who were eagerly invited before the meeting of the National Congress of Mathematicians.

as predicted,

After three days,

Zhou Yi's article "Proof of Kepler's Conjecture" was directly sent to Professor Milnor by the reviewing technical editor.

Not only in the hands of Professor Milnor, but also Professor Xiang Yi and Hales, who have been studying Kepler's conjecture for a long time, have obtained rubbings of this paper.

Professors from Princeton, Stanford, MIT, Harvard, and other strong mathematics schools in the country all got a copy of the rubbings.

Even Yau at Mizuki University got a rubbing copy.

Because this paper was written by his future students, and it was written to prove Kepler's conjecture.

The first reaction of countless professors when they got their papers was to be confused, nothing but dumb.

Zhou Yi's article "The Proof of the Unification of 'Lattice Type' Newton Problems in 5, 6, and 7 Dimensional Spaces" published in the Annals of Mathematics actually caused quite a stir.
After this paper is thoroughly understood, there will definitely be a huge improvement in information technology.

But it's only been so long, we haven't had time to apply it in the future,

Just tell us that you proved the Kepler conjecture.

If they hadn't seen that the author's name was yizhou, they would have thought that another person who didn't know the heights of heaven and earth had submitted the manuscript.

Every day someone declares that he has proved the Kepler conjecture, just as every day on arXiv someone declares that he has proved the Riemann conjecture.

However, seeing that it was Zhou Yi's paper, he looked at it patiently.

While these professors were seriously studying Zhou Yi's papers, they received another paper, which was also written by Zhou Yi.

"Proof of Newton's Problem".

Two words instantly appeared in countless professors' minds.

I am grass.

Can you put two papers on top of one paper.

One article was published in "New Advances in Mathematics" and one article was published in "Journal of Magnesium National Mathematical Society".

water?
Still feel that the contact information of mathematicians is still in the 19th and 20th centuries?

These two papers only need to understand the proof of Kepler's conjecture, and the other proof of Newton's problem is estimated to be useless.

Professor Deligne and Professor Milnor sat under the same room,
Looking at the two papers in his hand, the expression on his face couldn't help being solemn.

"Deligne, why don't we read the first paper first, "Proof of Kepler's Conjecture"?"

Deligne is mainly engaged in number theory, but Kepler's conjecture can also be regarded as the direction of number theory. He must have some understanding of mathematics for many years.

"it is good."

However, the most professional one is Professor Milnor, who has studied the Kepler conjecture for many years, and is now an authoritative one in this direction.

"You said why did this kid divide one paper into two? Is it because our mathematics professor can't understand it? It's a bit inexplicable."

Mirno watched and complained.

"I don't know, he probably has his own ideas, but didn't he accept the offer you sent him?"

Deligne asked.

"No, I was cut off by that old fellow Qiu Chengtong."

Milno said with a tone of dissatisfaction.

The corner of Deligne's mouth twitched and said:
"Qiu Cheng is more than ten years younger than you, right?"

"It's going to be buried anyway, what's the difference?

As long as I find even the slightest mistake in this thesis, I will type it back and ask Zhou Yi to revise it, so that he will not choose me as a tutor. I am better than that Qiu Chengtong, okay? "

Mirno said bitterly.

Obviously, he didn't expect that he wanted to accept disciples in person in his later years, but he was rejected.

The reason turned out to be that Qiu Chengtong wanted to give him a scholarship of 20 yuan.

Can a mathematician's work be measured by money?
Can't Princeton afford this little money?

I'm a majestic winner of the three materials, isn't this a little bit of weight?

When Professor Xiang Yi of the University of California, Berkeley got two papers,
His face was already numb, so he immediately contacted Professor Zong Ming at Shangjing University.

Professor Zong Ming's research in this direction is not much weaker than him.

"Professor Zong, have you read the rubbings of those two mathematics papers?"

Xiang Yi, who was on the phone across the ocean, spoke in a very uneven tone, with a hint of shock.

"Look, the author of the thesis is Mr. Yau's future precious apprentice, but I haven't understood the thesis yet. The new theory involved in it is very novel, and I feel that I need a lot of time to understand it.

As for whether it is correct or not, after reading the paper in depth, the result will come out. "

Professor Zong Ming had a decadent tone at the moment.

After working in this direction for a lifetime, the result may be proved in advance by a young man under 20 years old.

Who is to make sense of this.

"I'm going to go back to China and study together. If there's anything I don't understand, I'm going to Yuzhou University to ask Zhouyi in person, or I'll live in Yuda."

Xiang Yi's tone was a little decisive.

"Ah? As for?"

Professor Zong said with some doubts.

"As for, I published a [-]-page paper trying to prove that I proved Kepler's conjecture, but I didn't expect to be publicly accused of stating that my proof was wrong.

If I don't prove this conjecture in my life, I don't think I can swallow this breath.Even if the Kepler conjecture is not proved by me, I have to see it proved with my own eyes. At present, this paper has a good chance to be true, isn't it? "

Xiang Yi's tone was somewhat aggrieved.

I thought I was the proud son of heaven, and proved the conjecture that had been pending in the mathematics world for 400 years, but I didn't expect that it was finally said to be proved wrong.

This kind of mood is tantamount to the ABC conjecture paper that Shinichi Mochizuki studied for a long time, which was considered wrong by Schultz.

Shinichi Mochizuki wrote a 600-page thesis and created the Interuniverse Teich-Miller Theory (IUT),
As a result, someone named me and said that my proof paper was wrong. This kind of feeling can only be experienced by a loser.

Professor Zong Ming said:

"It's not what I said, and it's not that you don't know about our going to Beijing University and Qiu. This week, Yi is Qiu's student. You made us a little embarrassed by what you did."

"Hmph, I don't care about your crap. What are you doing in it? I have nothing to do with you. Anyway, I decided to visit Yuzhou University. It's up to you whether you come or not."

Xiang Yi's tone changed a bit,

"And I didn't say that some scientific research atmosphere in China really needs to be changed. If I die, I will try to return to China within ten days."

After Xiang Yi finished speaking, he hung up the phone.

At the moment, Schulz in Germany looked at the two papers in his hand with a look of shock.

I thought that the editor of "New Advances in Mathematics" had given me a surprise, but I didn't expect that there would be even more shocking things on the other side of the ocean.

Kepler's conjecture is about to be proven!

A young undergraduate student.

Although he published an article "The Proof of the Unification of 'Lattice Type' Newton Problems in 5, 6, and 7 Dimensional Spaces" that made people's eyes shine, but unexpectedly,
How long has it been since the papers on Kepler's conjecture proof have all been sent.

Schultz looked at the papers on the first few pages, and proved that it was very concise and clear, without a trace of nonsense.

Compared with Mochizuki Shinichi's thesis, I don't know how much more concise.

Then take a good look at the thesis of this rising star in mathematics. If I find an error, I will point it out to you bluntly like Professor Deligne did.

Schultz thought to himself.

Mathematics does not allow the slightest bit of uncertainty to exist.

This is the most basic quality of a mathematician who specializes in mathematics.

Qiu Chengtong in Shuimu also looked shocked at this moment. He thought that he had accepted a talented apprentice, and there was hope of revitalizing his school.
Unexpectedly, this student, whom he had never met, gave him such a big surprise.

This apprentice who has never met before has the hope of surpassing the apprentice who turned against him at the beginning, and it will be greatly surpassed.

"Mr. Qiu, are we going to visit Yuzhou University? After all, face-to-face consultation may help us understand this paper faster."

18-year Fields Medal winner Bill Carr said.

Obviously, he was also shocked by these two papers of Zhou Yi.

Qiu Chengtong said:
"Don't go now, we can't even understand the thesis, right? If Mirno finds out, I'll lose my old face. I won't go, I'll go with you."

Apparently Qiu Chengtong was going to understand Zhouyi's thesis by himself.

Bill Carr said:

"Then I will go. The food in Yuzhou is very good. I kind of like the spicy feeling. I have to say that Yuzhou is a wonderful city. I will go there first for this study visit."

Zhou Yi, who was still concentrating on writing codes in the library of Yuzhou University, did not know that mathematicians all over the world were boiling.
The conjecture that has been pending for 400 years may be proved by a new star in mathematics,
Could it be that after the German math genius Schulz, the Great Xia Kingdom will also produce a math genius?

Countless mathematicians are paying attention to the authenticity of this paper, and this paper can be regarded as igniting the atmosphere for the upcoming International Conference of Mathematicians.

PS: Asking for a monthly ticket, [-] words, right, [-] words less!
