Chapter 40 How did you think of it?
The topic given by Ning Qing is known as the KLS conjecture on Earth, and if it is recognized on Sky Blue now, it will probably be renamed Ning Qing conjecture or Ning's conjecture.And Ning Qing was deeply impressed by this conjecture because it was the undergraduate thesis of the great mathematician Ning Wei.Using a paper to solve a mathematical conjecture that has plagued the academic world for decades can easily confuse future generations.

Therefore, this thesis has also become a nightmare for many prospective graduates of mathematics schools of famous universities. With his own efforts, he has infinitely raised the expectations of the professors for undergraduate graduation thesis. I have studied this paper very carefully.

This is also the reason why Ning Qing resolutely did not choose mathematics when he took the postgraduate entrance examination on Earth.When there is a mountain of despair standing in front of him, it will easily shatter the self-confidence of a proud man.The only thing that Ning Qing didn't expect was that even though he took the master's degree in economics, the compulsory course still included Ning Wei's isomorphism theory about the underlying structure of artificial intelligence.

After all, in that era, all scientific systems that required the use of mathematics were closely related to artificial intelligence.In addition to learning whether it is macroeconomics or microeconomics, there is a shadow of artificial intelligence participating in the design, which requires a qualified economist to have a certain understanding of the underlying thinking mode of artificial intelligence.

During this period of time, Ning Qing has been able to surf the Internet, and has a relatively in-depth understanding of mathematics, physics, computers, materials, and other subjects in this world. He can be sure that no mathematician on Sky Blue has really proposed something similar to the KLS conjecture. question.

Because of the above reasons, Ning Qing felt that taking out this question for Brother Zhang to think about must not be regarded as a difficult person.On Earth, the status of Ningwei's undergraduate alma mater Jiang University in China is not much different from Haizhou University's status in Yonghan Republic.At that time, Ning Wei was still an undergraduate student, while Zhang Zhuoyan was already a graduate student. If he couldn’t solve this problem easily, would he be ashamed to say that he loves mathematics?

In fact, the effect of doing so is really good.

When Ning Qing posed this topic, Zhang Zhuoyan really calmed down. Except for asking one or two questions occasionally, most of the time he was staring at the information listed on the topic in a daze, probably thinking deeply.

Ning Qing was finally able to enjoy a moment of quiet time.It is difficult for those who have not experienced it to imagine how unbearable the mental torture caused by a person who keeps nagging in the ear, and also throws out questions from time to time, asking you to respond to the nagging, It was so embarrassing that people only felt that seconds seemed like years.

When Zhang Zhuoyan calmed down, the time returned to normal. The door of the box was opened after a while, and Professor Fu, whom he had met at the defense site in the morning, walked in.

"I'm sorry, Xiao Ning, just now a friend dragged me to chat for a while, didn't you get impatient?"

Ning Qing stood up, and said hello in a neither humble nor overbearing manner: "Hi, Professor Fu, I didn't wait long, and Brother Zhang is also very enthusiastic."

"Haha, is Xiao Zhang very enthusiastic? Huh? Zhang Zhuoyan, why have you invited people here for so long? You didn't even order any food?" Fu Haiquan's eyes fell on Zhang Zhuoyan who was still sitting there meditating, and couldn't help feeling angry Do not call one place.

How can there be any reason to invite someone to dinner while sitting there in a daze?
"Ah? Director Fu, when did you come?"

"What are you thinking about?"

"Xiao Ning just asked me a question. It's very interesting. I'm thinking about how to solve it."

"Oh? What's the topic? Show me... Hey, don't stand still, sit down first... Xiao Ning must be hungry too, so hurry up and order the food first." Fu Haiquan explained, and then took the lead He chose a seat at random and sat down, took the small note from Zhang Zhuoyan, and glanced at the topic on it.

Zhang Zhuoyan was not in a hurry to order food, but stood beside the tutor, and described the question Ning Qing had just raised in a low voice.

"Looking for the smallest surface area?" Fu Haiquan frowned, and sent his students to order food quickly, and then his attention was also attracted by this question, but within a few minutes, Fu Haiquan put the note on the On the table, when he looked up at Ning Qing again, there was undoubtedly a little more joy in his eyes.

"Did you come up with this question yourself?"

"Ah."

"That's very interesting. If you really think about this problem carefully, the first thing you should consider is the minimum value of the plane cut of this convex body. It is undoubtedly much simpler to solve the constant C on the plane than the curved surface. Is it because you have already Solved the problem of the minimum value of the plane cut?"

Ning Qing blinked, and had a certain understanding of the mathematics professor in front of him who might become an academician of the School of Mathematics.Being able to see this in a few minutes is enough to show that his understanding of mathematics is extremely deep.

So I was more cautious when answering: "Well, I probably figured it out, the main use of harmonic analysis and ergodic theory is to decompose."

In fact, the planar part of this conjecture was solved by the mathematician Jean Bourgain, the proposer of this problem, in a paper of about five pages.Therefore, when studying Ningwei's thesis, we will also understand the solution to the plane problem by the way.

"Oh, not bad, not bad. Xiao Ning, your thesis surprised me, but it really scared me that you raised this question. You really figured out this question yourself?" Fu Haiquan raised his hand paper, and asked again seriously.

This is probably a stone throwing a foot.

When asking Zhang Zhuoquan a question, Ning Qing didn't think too much, but simply wanted to shut up the chatterbox for the time being.But looking back now, he still didn't think it through.Zhang Zhuoquan did not have too many doubts, but as a mentor, he thought more.

In the world of mathematics, being able to come up with a recognized and meaningful conjecture itself represents a mathematician's understanding of a series of mathematical theories.

But Ning Qing is also very clear that he did this because of a small mentality in his subconscious.This mentality is also very simple. In fact, he really wants to become a great mathematician like Ning Wei who can make every future student cry in the middle of the night.

Thinking of becoming an insurmountable mountain in the eyes of the world's future math geniuses, and even being greeted wildly by many students in private, I feel happy from the bottom of my heart.Because he has experienced it, he understands the helpless reverence behind the verbal complaints and curses.

Wanting to scold a person, but it doesn't affect the silent worship of this person in the bottom of my heart, and even takes pride in being such a person.

But at this time, Ning Qing, who was planning to take a shortcut, of course would not hesitate, and nodded with certainty: "Yes."

"Huh... It seems that I invited the right person for today's meal. Come on, tell me, how did you come up with this question?"
