When I am reborn, I just want to be a top student

Chapter 177 Mathematical theorems named after Chinese people

China and the Bald Eagle are separated by the Pacific Ocean and several time zones.

When news of Wang Donglai's deeds at Princeton came back to China, it was already two days later.

A Zhou guess and the results of Mersenne prime numbers might only attract the attention of some people in normal times, but when the news came back from Princeton, the situation was different.

In addition, the list of participants on the spot was also sent back, which made the glory of this deed even more glorious.

On a larger scale, this is to spread Chinese culture, establish the image of Chinese academic personnel, and enhance China’s influence as an international academic power.

To put it more simply, it also shows the outstanding style of domestic academics and brings glory to the country.

At present, the bald eagle is still a beacon for the world, leading the world and affecting all aspects of countries around the world.

Naturally, China is no exception.

So, there was that phone call from the president of the Mathematical Society.

In addition, I don’t know how many colleges and universities are secretly jealous of Tangdu Jiaotong University, which was so lucky to have picked up such a talented student like Wang Donglai.

The ambivalent mentality tortured him, so gradually he rarely attended mathematics conferences, and international academic conferences also became less and less frequent.

Yangcheng.

But Professor Zhou can be said to be the person who knows this best, so he easily kept up with Wang Donglai's rhythm.

Taking a deep breath, Professor Zhou opened the photos and began to look at them one by one.

It's like a beautiful song.

At this time, Deligne also responded to an email, a very simple sentence.

The video is a little shaky and the picture quality is a little blurry, but you can clearly see the back of the young man on the podium.

"It seems that in the next few decades, the world of mathematics will be dominated by this young man. I don't know how far he can go. I hope he can take two more steps. Our country is really short of such people. .”

And just when he was about to turn off the computer, his phone rang.

I went through dozens of photos, especially the last two.

The three numbers do conform to the distribution law formula, and you can prove it with your own guesses.

He never thought that this would actually happen.

"Wang Donglai, who proved the ABC conjecture and Hodge's conjecture, graduated from Tangdu Jiaotong University in one year and received a bachelor's degree, a master's degree, and a doctorate in mathematics?"

With this thought in mind, Professor Zhou suddenly made a bold guess.

As soon as they met, several leaders of the school surrounded the old man with happy faces and congratulated him.

Professor Zhou was stunned when he heard half of it.

In these few minutes, he felt extremely complicated.

A few minutes passed before Professor Zhou regained his composure.

"Professor Zhou, congratulations!"

After writing the paper, convert the format, package it directly with the electronic copyright agreement, and send it to Professor Deligne.

After finishing speaking, Professor Zhou became even more curious, wondering what Wang Donglai had to do with him.

Now, Professor Deligne's behavior is also based on this principle.

After the call was connected, Phoenix's voice rang on the phone.

After hearing these words, Wang Donglai had no choice but to choose...
Without any effort at all to train him, he directly gained a world-class mathematician.

It doesn't take much thought at all.

Professor Zhou stood up directly.

There is the excitement and excitement after writing the formula, and there is also the worry about this guess.

"However, I am right below the hotel where you are staying. Are you ready to agree to my invitation to go out for a walk, or are you ready to invite me to sit in your room?"

Although Wang Donglai's formulas on the whiteboard in the video are a bit wild and unrealistic, without a certain mathematical foundation, he would not be able to understand or follow them at all.

Every paper is like a cornerstone that will build a scholar's status.

Sun Yat-sen University.

"Professor Zhou, what a good thing!"

He also went from the golden age of 37 to the age of retirement.

"Oh, the genius of China has made such a great achievement, don't you want to celebrate it?"

Noticing the old man's confused expression, all the school leaders smiled knowingly, and the dean of the School of Science and Technology, who had the highest status present, explained to the old man: "Old Zhou, have you heard of that genius student from Tangdu Jiaotong University?"

After decades of cultivation, Professor Zhou slowly regained his composure.

For a moment, Professor Zhou had a lot of thoughts in his mind.

While watching, Professor Zhou murmured.

After a few words of greeting, Professor Zhou couldn't wait to return to the office, turned on the computer, opened the videos and photos, and looked at them.

If there are problems with the paper and the foundation is unstable, sooner or later it will overturn.

"Yes, that's him, but now he has another achievement. He gave a report at an academic exchange conference in Princeton the day before yesterday. As a result, he changed the content of the report on the spot. In half an hour, Zhou's guess was proved, and in another fifteen minutes , the summed up Mersenne prime number rule writes three Mersenne prime numbers.”

Professor Zhou told Wang Donglai's information in detail.

Although in recent years, he has focused his energy on the intersection of mathematics, linguistics, and astronomy courses, jointly studying the development of audio-computer translation systems, the design of cosmic languages, and mathematical models of near-Earth asteroids, etc., he has always been The speculation that brought him glory was not forgotten.

"Fermat's numbers, good, good, really good! You are indeed a genius!"

The congratulations they said came from their mouths.

When he conquered the Mersenne prime numbers, he received encouragement or guidance from famous mathematicians such as Hua Luogeng, Ke Zhao, Pan Chengdong, Pan Chengbiao, and Liang Zhishun. Number theory expert Li Baitian even made good suggestions for simplifying his formulas.

And the densely packed proof process formulas written on the whiteboard.

He was afraid that one day, his guess would be falsified and completely overturned.

Wang Donglai: "If what you are saying is Zhou's guess, then I don't think so."

Princeton.

He was also afraid that when he closed his eyes, this guess would still be just a guess and could not be turned into a theorem or formula.

I am responsible not only for Wang Donglai, but also for other scholars.

Overnight, starting from scratch.

"Huh..." I deleted it without even looking at it.

At this time, Wang Donglai's computer was connected to the Internet, and he realized that his mailbox was about to explode.

After all, the academic status of core journals cannot be compared with ordinary academic papers.

Half an hour later, Wang Donglai stopped.

After exhaling again, as if he had let out the depression he had been feeling for decades, Professor Zhou became extra energetic and felt relieved.

However, out of caution, he deliberately slowed down and checked twice.

His fingers pressed quickly on the keyboard of the laptop, and characters jumped out in the document.

This guess named after him made him famous in the mathematics community, and he also received various honors and special talent allowances.

There are not many valuable emails among them.

Writing a paper is already a familiar task.

Wang Donglai really proved his guess and found out the distribution pattern of Mersenne prime numbers.

I don’t know how many scholars will cite an academic paper on the level of world problems and make secondary arguments based on its content.

"Old Zhou, it may take two days for that paper to be published in the "Annual Review of Mathematics". You should take a good look at it then. However, I do have some photos and videos that were leaked at the time. You can take them first. have a look."

After the lottery was over, Wang Donglai began to write his thesis.

His guess was not wrong.

The email has been received, please wait patiently.

"call……"

"Sure enough, he, like me, wants to find out the answer through these methods, but it is impossible to get the result at all, only..."

An old man wearing glasses and with little hair on his head walked out of the teaching building.

From 1992 to now, 21 years have passed.

This not only makes him feel grateful, but it is also a heavy pressure.

It's just that the video recording time is very short and it doesn't end before the recording is finished.

The dean of the Institute of Mathematical Sciences saw that Professor Zhou fell into silence after learning the news, and he understood Professor Zhou's inner thoughts in an instant.

However, for so many years, this speculation has been both an honor and a shackles, trapping him firmly.

It was a very formulaic reply, and Wang Donglai didn't think much about it.

……

This problem that had troubled him for twenty-one years was finally solved.

If there is a problem with the paper, it will not only affect you, but also the scholars who cite your paper will be affected, and even the results based on your own paper will be directly cancelled.

At this moment, he looked confused, not knowing what it meant for these school leaders to find him.

However, before he returned to his office.

Turning his head and looking at the scenery outside the window, Professor Zhou muttered to himself.

He stayed in the hotel room for a whole day without leaving.

Therefore, Wang Dong came very quickly, and it was even easier to prove Zhou's guess because he only cited one document.

Most of the emails were all kinds of weird emails sent from someone who knew his email address.

Finally, add these three new, never-discovered Mersenne primes, and the result is naturally clear.

Although he had not watched the complete proof process, he could judge from the content of the video he saw that Wang Donglai had indeed proved his guess.

"Looks like I need to change my mailbox!"

In fact, it wouldn’t take that long just to write a paper.

With this thought in his mind, Wang Donglai began to clean up the emails in his mailbox.

Look at these three new, never-before-seen Mersenne primes.

"Complex variable function, sieve theory, analytical number theory, numerical calculation..."

Shock, excitement, excitement, and a little bit of relief.

And after this verification, it was found that there was nothing wrong.

Without saying anything more, he just passed on the videos and photos he had obtained.

"Congratulations to Professor Zhou, your long-cherished wish has come true!"

The old man's name was Zhou Haizhong. Hearing the words of the dean of several colleges, he was stunned for a moment and thought of who he was talking about.

After all, the content of the paper is in his mind, and he only needs to type it out on the computer with his hands.

Since Professor Deligne is willing to vouch for his review, he will naturally not waste this opportunity.

Professor Zhou subconsciously verified it.

He met a large number of school leaders, who were walking quickly towards him with happy faces.

The caller ID showed Phoenix.

On the photo, it is the precise formula written by Wang Donglai, as well as three Mersenne primes.

"Well, I do understand a little bit about the world of you geniuses."

The old man was born in 1955 and is now 58 years old. Because he is a university professor, his quality of life is good and he does not look old.

The photos were obviously in the wrong order, but Professor Zhou was writing and drawing on the scratch paper while looking at them.

Looking at the densely packed unread emails, Wang Donglai frowned slightly.

And it just stopped at a key position, which immediately made Professor Zhou frown, and he wanted to fly to the Bald Eagle immediately to see the complete proof paper.

Therefore, the first ABC guess will cause the editorial board of the "Annals of Mathematics" to hold a meeting to conduct research and demonstration. Only after the demonstration has been passed can it be published.

"M57, M885, M161."

Zhou guessed.
