From small town scholar to chief scientist

Chapter 139 Two 'similar' papers (for subscription)
Most of the reporters present were around 30 years old. These days it can be said that they stayed up late to play until one or two o'clock in the evening without passing the second level.

Now that I heard Zhou Yi say this, I couldn't help being shocked. If I could learn some skills, wouldn't I be able to pass it, and post a wave on Moments, pretending to be aggressive?
At this time, everyone was paying attention, and they were more serious than when they were studying at school.

Zhou Yi said flatly:
"I did some research. This game has fourteen graphics: cabbage, bucket, bell pin, purple ball, carrot, wool, corn, scissors, grass, brush, milk bottle, straw, glove, torch, and finally there are four layers of repeating graphics, so even according to the optimal solution of gradual de-layering, there are 2162160 possibilities in the end,
Among these more than 200 million possibilities, if there must be a solution, there are 256 permutations, and if there is no solution, there are 1296 permutations, so there are a total of 2802159360 possibilities in the last layer of the game. "

28 billion possibilities! ?
Nima, this game I am playing is a dog!

No wonder I couldn't get past a few nights of playing.

All the people present complained.

Ding Jian on the side is interested, so go back tonight and give it a try.

This is so interesting.

Zhou Yi continued to say:

"Excluding unsolvable situations, there are a total of 55351296 clearance situations, which are all reduced layer by layer, but the actual situation cannot be so ideal, there will be more."

A reporter swallowed and said:
"God Zhou, are there really so many clearances?"

Zhou Yi nodded and said:
"According to the basic permutations and combinations, you can figure it out."

Assuming that all cards appear in the order according to the optimal situation, there are a total of 720 situations, so the probability of the optimal clearance probability is less than 0.0013%, while the probability of clearance is 1.9%.

And if you don't clear the level according to the perfect layer-by-layer reduction, even if there is only one kind of card on the fifth floor, then the total possible arrangement will come to 39, 230, 231, 040, and your clearance probability is only 0.1357% .

And I have counted the situation of my 0.009 games, and the number of games that can achieve this ideal situation is only two games. That is to say, even if you are in the most ideal and ideal card order situation, your pass probability is only [-]%.

That is to say, there is only one pass in every 200 games, which is consistent with the actual situation that less than [-] people pass the pass every day in the whole country. "

Everyone: .. So it's not a sheep but a dog. Nima lied to us to watch advertisements. It's even more rubbish than the unscrupulous self-media.

Go back and play, I'm a dog, okay.

Everyone cursed inwardly.

More than 300 billion permutations and combinations, pure bullying.

After the interview, Zhou Yi went to the dining place for lunch.

The Jinling Roast Duck is really a must. A professional-level chef cooks it. The taste is even better than the duck that was eaten in the hotel in the last math competition.

In the afternoon, it was about several reports on various branches of mathematics. Zhou Yi looked at the direction and didn't go if it wasn't his own research direction.

Just when Zhou Yi was about to gnaw the literature by himself,
Qiu Chengtong found Zhou Yi.

In a certain room, Mr. Qiu said to Zhou Yi:

"I made a joint training plan for you at Shuimu University. Now there are two options. Let's see how to choose."

It was the first time for Zhou Yi to communicate with his future mentor, and said respectfully:
"Teacher Qiu, please tell me."

Qiu Chengtong said:
"With your current level of geometry, there are almost no opponents in classical geometry. The first is to dig deep into your Zhou's geometry, and then in this direction, I don't give you much help, mainly relying on yourself;

The second way is to participate in the joint training between Mizuki and Princeton University. I will study for a master’s degree, and then go to Professor Milnor’s for a Ph.D., and then inherit and develop the entire school of geometry.

Geometrically, this road is more difficult than other roads. There are not many famous teachers who have made some important achievements, and it is difficult to convince the public. "

Obviously, Qiu Chengtong wanted to train Zhou Yi as a successor of his own disciple.

Yau's status, in the history of mathematics, is bound to have a strong stroke.

Zhou Yi thought for a while and said:

"I choose the second one. Let others study the first one. Wouldn't it be good if I give some research directions for Zhou's geometry?"

Qiu Chengtong nodded and said:

"I also prefer the second one. Zhou's geometry was developed by you. You are already the founder of the mountain. There is no need to get stuck for some achievements. It is right to give some opportunities to the latecomers."

In fact, Qiu Chengtong didn't say a word, let others study it, and a school headed by Zhouyi will be formed.

At that time, Zhou Yi's status as the patriarch can be imagined.

"Then I told that old Mirnor thing."

Qiu Chengtong said.

"Well, good teacher."

Zhou Yi said respectfully.

Qiu Chengtong said again:

"The last time I saw you say at the IMC conference that you are going to study the ABC conjecture of number theory, is it true? I don't have many ideas for studying number theory. I suggest you think about it."

Zhou Yi said:

"Well, the next job is to study number theory. Unless Zhou's geometry can mature, I don't plan to study geometry."

Qiu Chengtong sighed and said:

"The whole history of mathematics, half of which is the history of geometry. Of course, number theory is the pearl of mathematics, but hey, it's up to you, who is not young and frivolous when you are young, and I think it will be useless to persuade you."

Zhou Yi thought that it is useless for anyone to come, the task of the system is important.

"Let me try it, Mr. Qiu, not to prove anything to anyone, but to challenge myself and prove myself."

Qiu Chengtong thought for a while and said:
"Try to use the things in geometry to connect with number theory. If you have any doubts, you can talk to me from time to time. I am very happy to share my ideas."

Zhou Yi knows this. Qiu has shared many ideas, and many people have made great achievements with Qiu's ideas.

In this regard, he was N times stronger than a certain academician, and competed with his apprentice for results. As a result, his apprentice Chen Xiuxiong later won a Veblen Geometry Prize backhand and published a paper in a top journal.

In contrast, the gap came out.

Compared with what Beijing University said, the Philippine Award is not important, that is, the golden generation cultivated is wiped out.

Ding Jian, who was unremarkable back then, achieved no worse achievements than the golden generation.

And it almost cut off the Philippine Award.

It's not that the golden generation is not strong, under the Philippine Award, it is basically the top.

It is the future and the mainstay of the Daxia Kingdom's mathematics community, and it is not hopeless to win other awards in the future.

When the four top journals were published in China without blowing mathematics, the mathematics of the Great Xia Kingdom was considered to have initially formed a climate.

"Well, thank you, Teacher Qiu."

Zhou Yi said.

"Then study hard and report to Shuimu University early. The academic atmosphere there is much better than your previous school."

After Qiu Chengtong finished speaking, he left. He was required to host the meeting, and he was busy with many things.

After Qiu left, Zhou Yi also began to read the literature. The road to prove the ABC conjecture is still very long, and Zhou Yi has been preparing for at least a quarter.

Now that the math level has reached LV3, the speed of reading various documents has been much faster. Although there is a bottleneck in the ABC conjecture, sometimes there will be faint flashes of inspiration.

While Zhou Yi was studying the ABC conjecture, an editor in Sweden on the other side of the ocean saw two manuscripts and was silent for a long time.

One manuscript was contributed by Zhou Yi, and the other was contributed by Hales.

It's all about the solution to Hilbert's No.18 question.

The editor sighed, and finally had to email the thesis to Professor Milno, Professor Faltins and other bigwigs.

Although he is more inclined to be correct in the Book of Changes, Hales is also an old man who studies this direction. He borrowed the newly developed Zhou's geometry from the Book of Changes. Who is right and who is wrong has to be reviewed by the bosses. As a small academic editor, I don't need to Worry about this kind of thing.

It is not worthwhile to offend a future bigwig of the Philippine Award, or offend a bigwig who has already achieved fame in the mathematics world.

This kind of thing, let the big guys who study this direction in the mathematics world have a headache, just watch the show by yourself.
