Beneath Deep Space

And the new human civilization they miss is triggering a huge wave of mathematics craze.

The Riemann Hypothesis was solved by a superhuman mathematician named "Ran Ruiran", using a new mathematical tool called "supercomplex function".

Every mathematician who knows the truth believes that... "supercomplex functions" are the biggest milestone in the theory of complex variable functions since humans entered the starry sky, and even... the biggest milestone in mathematics.

The man on the podium was delivering his proof, which spanned more than 400 pages. It was estimated that the lecture would last for more than half a month.

This lean man is only 1.7 meters tall. His appearance is not impressive, his voice is not loud, and his personality is a bit nerdy. But it was such a person who made epoch-making achievements.

Yu Yifeng could no longer understand the content two days ago. He could understand every word written on it, but he just couldn't understand the meaning of the words connected together.

He could only get a general idea from the descriptions of the two mathematicians around him, what was more important, what was more clever, etc... These two mathematicians were Ran Ruiran's reviewers and had already understood the specific proofs.

"How important is it? It is equivalent to the elliptic function theory in the field of complex analysis in the 19th century! Even...even worse!"

"Hypercomplex functions can connect complex analysis with number theory and complex geometry. It's simply wonderful! Goldbach's conjecture and perfect numbers seem to be just one layer of paper away! The previous cryptography has become weak...can be cracked easily . Yes, all passwords using prime numbers can basically be cracked by brute force!"

The two crazy mathematicians became more and more enthusiastic and kept thinking about a better future.

"Is it equivalent to the theory of elliptic functions..." Yu Yifeng murmured, racking his brains to recall various knowledge.

He felt like an idiot.

The world of mathematics is a place where geniuses need to work hard to stay.

Of course he knew this super mathematician named "Ran Ruiran". He was the second generation of the Noah. When he was 6 years old, he had been selected for separate education.

"It is said that he was obsessed with mathematics and was losing weight day by day... He is so handsome."

"He never looks at the road when he walks. He just focuses on thinking about his own problems and is not attracted to women. Apart from his mathematics, he has no hobbies. He still has no wife and no heirs." There were several girls around who were talking non-stop. Discussing the gossip that I have learned from somewhere, it is not a mockery, but... a compliment.

"Only with this kind of concentration... can one make achievements in the world of mathematics."

"Yes Yes!"

Moreover, Ran Ruiran is accustomed to using paper and pen and has no interest in computers. In other words, when facing the computer screen, his mind was completely empty, as if his inspiration had flown away.

Paper is still being produced on the Noah, just for these strange people.

It was such a mad scientist who broke through the intellectual barriers set by mankind and even used new tools to open a new era!

"Proving a conjecture is only a small matter, but the method is a big deal!"

The two mathematicians in front quietly danced: "It's equivalent to a huge improvement in computing power! In Archimedes' era, solving the area of ​​a parabolic arc required long-term reasoning and was not rigorous; in Newton's era, one integral can solve the problem ; Now we have finally gone one step further and can calculate more complex things..."

Yu Yifeng can somewhat understand this crazy feeling.

He once meditated for a long time on the proof of a complex theorem, and then the dopamine produced when he had an epiphany was exciting for an hour, n times longer than ***.

Even people like him are like this, let alone mad scientists in deeper fields.

"Okay, based on the above theorem, we can deduce..." Ran Ruiran was writing on the blackboard.

His face was pale, and every derivation was extremely heavy under his thin body.

After deriving the last law to be discussed today, the meeting ends.

A small group of people gathered around again, while others slowly dispersed. Yu Yifeng feels that one ten thousandth of all people can understand it completely, which is pretty good...

In other words, there are only one hundred people out of more than one million people.

The rest are either chewed slowly or... don't understand at all and are just for fun.

But Yu Yifeng still likes this kind of fanatical atmosphere. Even if he joins in the fun, it's good.

He was deeply intoxicated by the atmosphere in which the whole nation highly appreciated mathematics.

“Mathematics, if you look at it rightly, has... a supreme beauty—just like the beauty of sculpture, a cold and serious beauty.

"This beauty is not one that appeals to the feeble aspects of our nature; it is without the splendid ornaments of painting or music; it can be pure to the point of sublimity, capable of that strict perfection which only the greatest art can display. situation.

Nowadays, when almost all citizens can appreciate this high-level beauty, Yu Yifeng certainly has a strong sense of accomplishment.

He recalled the scenes he saw in Chariot 2, and suddenly realized something: "Perhaps, the appreciation of beauty is also a gap between civilizations... Some beauty is brought by genes, and some beauty is brought by genes. But it is brought about by wisdom, and there is an essential difference between the two.”

"A fair lady, a gentleman is a good man." Due to changes in aesthetics, even the original requirements for choosing a spouse have been changed.

In today's era, under this kind of productivity and system, everyone is generally wealthy and does not need to worry about the means of production at all, so it is impossible to use "money" as a criterion for choosing a spouse.

Being beautiful and having a big butt are not the highest criteria for choosing a mate, because everyone is generally beautiful. As long as you don't overeat and overeat, you will generally have a slim figure and smooth skin. Moreover, with the implementation of eugenics and eugenics policies, children born are generally quite healthy. Although humans cannot find smarter genes, they can still find out whether there are genetic defects.

"Wisdom" is considered by everyone to be the most beautiful thing. If you don't know some basic mathematical knowledge and can't talk about cutting-edge science in a chat, you will be considered a "stupid idiot".

A boy can be dull or homely, but he must know some cutting-edge science, any aspect will do.

Super mathematician Ran Ruiran is actually a taciturn guy, and he is relatively older, but there are many women who admire him. Although he has no interest in breeding.

And girls... the same is true. Don't think that women don't learn things. A child's intelligence is actually inherited more from the mother...so smart girls are even more favored.

Men and women in this era are equal, and women are active in many cutting-edge fields of science.
