From small town scholar to chief scientist

Chapter 125 Kepler—Zhouyi Theorem! (seeking subscription)

What IMU Chairman Carlos Koenig did not expect was that Qiu Chengtong was connected to the microphone, no wonder he waited for a while.

If this waits for a while, it is simply a question of the Congress of Mathematicians.

The current means of communication are basically created with mathematical knowledge. If it can wait for a long time, it will be a slap in the face of the mathematics community.

Carlos Koenig said to the three leading figures in the mathematics world with a respectful tone:

"I didn't expect Mr. Deligne and Mr. Mirno to be here. This is just right, and we can save two mics.

I don't know whether Mr. Qiu has a different view on this paper. "

Mr. Qiu's research direction is also geometry, and he has also won the Veblen Prize.

The Veblen Prize is an award awarded by the American Mathematical Society in memory of Professor Veblen.

Established in 1961, it started awarding twice in 1964 and 1966,
It is the highest honor in the field of geometry and topology, awarded every three years, so far, a total of 34 people have won this honor.

Qiu Chengtong smiled happily and said:

"No, I don't think there is any problem with this paper. It's not because Zhou Yi is about to become my student in the future, but because he is responsible for mathematics. I have calculated the calculation process of this paper myself, and it took two or three days. "

After Old Mr. Qiu said this, Da Xia Guo and many Chinese mathematicians breathed a sigh of relief.

The big cow said that there is no problem, and Zhou Yi's paper can be 30% sure that there is no problem.

"It seems that Mr. Qiu likes his apprentice very much."

Carlos Koenig said.

"Haha, I think Zhou Yi's future achievements will definitely be higher than that of an old man like me. I have always been very accurate."

As soon as Qiu Chengtong said this, the Daxia mathematicians and Chinese mathematicians present at the same time put a question mark in their hearts.

There is no doubt about your achievements in mathematics, but this is a bit pretentious,

You think people will not be so melon, is this reverse milk?

Carlos Koenig continued to ask Professor Milno:
"Mr. Milno, do you think there are still problems in the proof of Zhou Yi's paper?"

Milno said:

"Of course not. I calculated the more than 100 linear programs myself. It's no problem. It's faster than Qiu Chengtong."

As soon as these words came out, countless people were all boiling.

The two people who study the geometric direction of Taishan Beidou level both said that there is no problem,

Then there are basically no problems with Zhouyi's thesis, and the ones who need to be asked are Professor Deligne, Professor Faltings and Professor Purcell.

At this time, I only heard Professor Milno say with a hint of displeasure:

"However, Zhou Yi rejected my offer, which made me very unhappy. I suggest you come to me to study for a Ph. D."

"Haha."

The people present couldn't help laughing when they saw Mirno, who was a bit of an old urchin.

However, many doctoral students who watched the live broadcast online and studied Kepler's direction clenched their fists. Now they can't wait to rush to the scene and give Zhou Yi a knife.

They care more about whether Zhou Yi's proof is correct than who won the Fields Medal this year.

Now the two Taishan-level figures agree that if there is no accident, there is no mistake.

This accident is Professor Deligne, Professor Faltings and Professor Purcell.

Many PhD students cursed inwardly, you are amazing in Zhou Yi, you are amazing, do you know how we are going to graduate, and do you know how long we have to delay graduation.

Carlos Koenig asked Professor Deligne respectfully:
"Professor Deligne, what do you think?"

Deligne is relatively plain, after all, he learned mathematics from Alexander Grothendieck, the emperor of mathematics.

I have seen a lot of strong winds and waves.

The emperor of mathematics is the founder of modern algebraic geometry and is known as the greatest mathematician of the 20th century.

none of them.

Deligne said lightly:
"There is nothing wrong with the thesis. I have personally checked the complicated calculations in it. You are a very good young man. I also prefer talented young people."

Damn, this master can still praise people?

The people present were not without shock.

This Professor Deligne is famous for his integrity, and he often makes some mathematicians who give reports embarrassing.

As long as there is a problem with your thesis, you will point it out on the spot without worrying about your face.

But Deligne's words can basically be completely announced,

Kepler's conjecture can be crowned and crowned as a theorem!
Countless doctors are heartbroken at this moment.

It's even harder to accept than being green by a girlfriend.

Especially the doctor who has been delayed for several years, I am afraid that he is going to commit suicide tonight.

There are no more than five people in this world who have won the Fields Medal, Abel Prize, and Wolf Medal at the same time, and Deligne and Mirnau are the only two of them.

And there are only two winners of Fields Medal, Abel Prize and Craford Prize at the same time, namely Qiu Chengtong and Deligne.

The Crafoord Prize is a worldwide scientific award almost as famous as the Nobel Prize, established by the Royal Swedish Academy of Sciences in 1980.

Didn't Carlos Koenig, the president of the International Mathematical Union, be respectful when he saw the three of them.

But in order to be more rigorous in mathematics, in order to be responsible for the field of mathematics,
Carlos Koenig contacted Faltins who was listening online again,

He is also an expert in this direction, a winner of the Fields Medal, and an apprentice of the emperor of mathematics Alexander Grothendieck.

In order to be cautious and rigorous, Carlos Koenig had to send Lianmai to all the big guys.

After Faltings connected to the microphone, he said in a very flat tone:

"My opinion is the same as that of my senior brother Deligne. There is no problem. I also calculated the more than 100 algorithms involved in it. It only took two days."

After speaking, he glanced provocatively at the people present.

"Thank you Mr. Faltings for your affirmation. This has undoubtedly brought our progress to 80%. I wonder what Mr. Purcell thinks?"

Carlos Koenig continued to ask.

This Purcell is the youngest Fields Medal winner in history, and he also attended this meeting, and he is also an expert in algebraic geometry.

Sale held the microphone in his wrinkled hands and said softly:

"The future is terrifying."

Just four words have already explained everything.

At this moment, the Taishan Beidou in the entire mathematics world, the winner of the Veblen Prize, and the experts who study Kepler's conjecture all agree that there is no problem with Kepler's conjecture.

Couldn't find anything to find fault with.

I saw Carlos Koenig holding the microphone and saying in a very solemn tone:
"Kepler's conjecture was born in 1606, when the German mathematician Kepler wrote to Harry, and it was not formally summarized in mathematical language until 1611.

If the volume of the cube box is L, the radius of the ball is r, and the number of balls packed into the box is N, the packing density of the balls can be defined as (4/3)πr^3N/L.

It is such a simple result that has puzzled us for four centuries,

For 400 years, we have basically known that this result is correct, but there is still a lack of a proof method.

Even in order to study Kepler's conjecture, two new disciplines, discrete geometry and number geometry, were born.

Oh no, forgive me for being old, now there are three new branches, and one of Zhou's geometry!
At the beginning of the 20th century, Mr. Hilbert asked 23 century problems at the Second International Congress of Mathematicians held in Paris.

Until now, we have not been able to solve many problems.
But today, we can rigorously and solemnly announce that the Kepler conjecture summarized in Hilbert's No.18 question can be thoroughly proved!

Since then,

Kepler's conjecture ascended the throne and was crowned as Kepler—Zhouyi Theorem! "

The people present and the people on the line all stood up at this moment and applauded in unison.

They have witnessed history, and witnessed a conjecture that has been pending for 400 years being solved by a young man who is less than 20 years old.

They even witnessed the rise of a mathematical genius!

The applause went from pattering at the beginning to protracted.

There are many opportunities to witness the history of mathematics, but witnessing a conjecture that has not been proven for 400 years crowned as a theorem may be the only one in this life.

Even many people here will be included in the history of mathematics!
Especially Carlos Koenig's face was red, from the moment he announced the establishment of the Kepler-Zhouyi theorem,
It is destined that he, Carlos Koenig, must have such a fortune in the history of mathematics.

The chairman of the IMU changes every four years, but in this case, he should be the first.

Thinking of this, Carlos Koenig looked at Zhou Yi with a little more liking.

"Next, let's congratulate Zhou Yi, and let's applaud this young man again,

Applause again for the Kepler-Zhouyi Theorem. "

The people present had different expressions.

There is envy, jealousy, and regret.

Of course, there are also many online people who are already preparing on the rooftop, woo woo woo, Zhouyi, I am inseparable from you!
Most of the mathematics world, Taishan Beidou, and experts who have won the Veblen Award, the highest geometry award in the field of geometry, all agree,
This is enough to show that the Kepler conjecture written by Zhou Yi is correct, and there will be no oolong.

At this time, Carlos Koenig asked Zhou Yi:

"Young mathematician genius, how old are you this year?"

Zhou Yi was taken aback, and asked me what my age was.

But Zhou Yi still replied in English with a Sichuan-Chongqing accent:

"It's full, almost 19 years old."

As soon as these words came out, countless people dropped their pens in shock.

I am Nima, are you?
You can't even write novels like that.

The last person was Terence Tao who won the gold medal in the international mathematics competition at the age of 13, and now it is you Zhou Yi.

The more Mirno watched Zhou Yi, the more he liked him. This is my successor. He studied in Qiuchengtong for a few years, and studied here for a few years.

It is not impossible to become a mathematical emperor like Alexander Grothendieck in the future.

Sale also looked at Zhou Yi with a complicated expression, and he didn't know what he was thinking.

Perhaps his youngest Fields Medal winner will change hands in four years.

As for Schultz and Tao Terence, who have always been known as mathematical geniuses,

At this moment, she is also slightly absent-minded.

"Tao, take back what I said earlier, he may be the youngest mathematician genius in the world."

Tao Zhexuan smiled bitterly, but still said stubbornly:
"I've been studying for a master's degree since I was 17."

Schultz sneered, but did not expose his last stubbornness.

"Maybe we should induce him to study number theory."

Academician E in the audience had mixed feelings, maybe he had to find a way to get him to go to Peking University.

As for Ding Jian and the others, they couldn't help but smile wryly, proving a conjecture that the mathematics world has not been able to prove for 400 years.
Also created a new branch of mathematics.

Liu Gang looked at Zhou Yi, and seemed to have made a decision in his heart, to follow Zhou Yi from now on!
Their research directions can all be classified as geometry, and they will definitely spark a great spark of thought in the future.

Xiang Yi, who was at Yuzhou University at the moment, couldn't help but lose his mind for a while.

It turns out that I have worked hard all my life in my career, and today, I finally have a result.

Only Hales knew how dejected and uncomfortable his thesis was when his thesis was rejected by the academic community.

From 1995 to the present, after waiting for a full 27 years, this boy who was under 19 years old finally announced to the world with a sharp sword in his hand,
Kepler's conjecture can be promoted to a theorem.

Moreover, some of the ideas in their papers were used, which is worthy of my old consolation.

There's nothing more rewarding than getting an accurate result from something you've been pursuing for a lifetime.

Xiang Yi wiped the wet corners of his eyes, and kept whispering at the corners of his mouth:

"Good good!"
