I Just Want to Be a Quiet Top Student

Professor Faltings continues to predict that the fourth place is:

[Sophia Morrel, French nationality (female), 37 years old, Paris Normal University, Algebraic Geometry, 1 hour (45 minutes), 44.18%]

Another French mathematician from the Paris Normal University, she also specializes in algebraic geometry.

"Algebraic geometry is the pride of French mathematics. Today, only algebraic geometry is left in France." Faltings said.

"I agree with this point. I think Sophia Morrel is very hopeful to win the prize. She is the only female mathematician who is qualified for the 1-hour report." Director Fefferman said.

In the history of the Fields Medal, so far only one female mathematician has won the prize.

The Iranian female mathematician Mariam Mirzahani won the 2014 Fields Medal, but unfortunately, she died of illness in the third year after receiving the Philippine Medal.

The international mathematics community needs a healthy and outstanding female mathematician, so Sophia Morrel is expected to win the Philippine Prize this year. This is the last time she will compete for the Philippine Prize.

Well, the top four mathematicians are out without my name...Shen Qi is not surprised, the Philippine seniors such as Faltings naturally have his own set of theories.

"Everyone will definitely say, in my prediction system, among the top four mathematicians, why is that German lunatic missing? The most talented German lunatic." Professor Faltings changed a piece of chalk and wrote on the blackboard :

[Peter Schultz, German nationality, 32 years old, University of Bonn, Algebraic Geometry, 1 hour (30 minutes), 37.25%]

"The German lunatic Schultz, the outside world thinks he is the most popular, but in my prediction system, he ranks fifth."

Faltings explained: "Ayub, a Frenchman who studies algebraic geometry, has almost secured a Fields Medal. The French lady Morrel, who is also good at algebraic geometry, has her uniqueness."

"I think it is difficult for three mathematicians who study algebraic geometry to appear in the four Philippine awards. Even if algebraic geometry is the most popular, two places are at the top."

"So the German lunatic Schultz needs to compete with the French lady Morrel. Only one of them can win the prize." Faltings predicted a result.

"Peter Schultz's voice is very high. He has won 11 mathematics awards in recent years and is the youngest professor in German history." In fact, Shen Qi is more optimistic about the young Schultz, who are all occupied by older seniors. Where is the way out for young people?

Director Charles Fefferman raised the volume: "Hey, singular! We can also make you the youngest professor in Princeton's history. As for voice, momentum and other means of building momentum, we at Princeton do not deliberately, but it does not represent us. not good at."

Shen Qi waved his hand and said: "Director Fefferman, I didn't mean that."

Fefferman: "That's what you mean."

Shen Qi laughed: "Well, Charles, you are the boss, you have the final say."

"Odd, don't be afraid of Peter Schultz. The probability of winning the Chinese key is second only to the German lunatic." Professor Faltings said that he is a German. He strongly supports German compatriot Brende and objectively evaluates the German lunatic Shu. Ertz, and encouraged Shen Qi for China Key.

In Princeton, professors and students who are more familiar with Shen Qi call him "Qi".

Say the pronunciation of "qi" in English, and when you read it, it becomes the key.

That's why Shen Qi's nickname "Key to China" came from.

"Then Grad, in your prediction system, where do I rank and what is the probability of winning?" Shen Qi asked curiously.

"Sixth." Grad Faltings said.

[Shen Qi, Chinese nationality, 22 years old, Princeton University, number theory (Riemann conjecture), functional analysis, algebra, etc., 45 minutes, 34.24%]

Faltings: "Odd, your advantages and disadvantages are equally obvious. You proved Riemann's conjecture. You are too young. This is your first International Congress of Mathematicians."

Shen Qi was a little surprised: "My probability of winning is as high as 34.24%? Grad, can you announce the basic calculation formula of your prediction system?"

Faltings laughed and said: "After the International Congress of Mathematicians, I will announce the calculation formula."

Finally, Faltings wrote the name of the seventh mathematician.

[Alessio Figari, 35 years old, Princeton University, differential geometry, partial differential equations, 1 hour (45 minutes), 28.31%]

Faltings said to Figari: "Alessio, if there are two places in the field of differential geometry + partial differential equations, then you and Simon Brende will win at the same time. If there is only one place this year, next The next Fields Medal is definitely yours."

"Grad, your prediction is very objective." The 35-year-old Professor Figali will have another chance to compete for the Philippine Award four years later. He has expectations for this year's Philippine Award and respects objective facts.

"Choose four from seven, this is the situation I predicted. Of course, no one is absolutely safe for seven mathematicians, everyone has a chance, and everyone has a certain probability of failing." Faltings concluded.

After some discussion, the Department of Mathematics at PKU believes that Shen Qi’s probability of winning is higher than that of Figari, because Shen Qi has no competitors in his research field and he has done his best.

The big pattern of choosing four out of seven, a confrontation of two against five.

Two Princeton mathematicians confronted five European school mathematicians.

There are also competitions within the European school. Simon Brende, Pete Schultz, Sofia Morrel, two German men, and a French woman, all three of them are in algebraic geometry, and three Europeans. One has to lose one PK among the people.

If in one Fields Medal, three of the four winners are from algebraic geometry, then do other branches of mathematics continue to study it?

The competitive situation is very complicated, and it is no longer a mere comparison of research results or ranking by seniority.

The European School is also divided into the Paris School and the Göttingen School. France and Germany are the two strongest countries in mathematics in Europe.

Powerful countries, neighbors, throughout European history, the period of fighting between France and Germany is better than cooperation.

In Faltings' forecasting system, the evaluation index of "building momentum" is placed at a relatively lower position, and he makes forecasts more from academic, qualifications, and school.

Director Fefferman and Shen Qi both believed that it was very necessary to build momentum before the Philippine Award.

In the global information age, the volume of calls made by the media, fans, and peer big cows cannot be ignored.

After the coffee time is over, Director Fefferman talks to Shen Qi alone: ​​"Qi~www.readwn.com~ Give me the momentum, and you are responsible for your academic research. What is the progress of your research on the third expression of RT, and whether it can be published? The basic framework for the public?"

"The basic framework is there, and the specific details need to be improved." Shen Qi said.

"Odd, your winning point is the third expression of RT. Fortunately, we still have more than three months."

Together, let's announce the basic framework of RT's third expression to the public. To build momentum, you must have academic dry goods.

There are many ways to build momentum. The most common and effective way to create academic stars is: award ceremony + academic report + mainstream media interviews and dissemination + hot call for peers.

Before the International Congress of Mathematicians, Shen Qi is expected to win the Ramanu Gold Medal, and he has been nominated.

"A Ramanu Gold Medal is not enough. Another Steele Award." Director Fefferman has the resources at hand. The American Mathematical Society has contacted him and asked the Princeton Department of Mathematics to recommend a candidate for the Steele Prize.

The Steele Prize is awarded by the American Mathematical Society. It is an important mathematics award with a system rating of A.

The situation has advanced to this stage, and Shen Qi must strive for this year's Fields Award. This is not his own business.

The Chinese and American people all have high hopes for Shen Qi.

Trade causes disputes, and mathematics brings peace.

China and the United States need such a mathematics star with a special identity. He is Chinese and he also represents the influence of American mathematics.

Shen Qi hurriedly convened a meeting with his team members. Time was tight and tasks were heavy.

Regarding the third expression of RT, a small grade is required within one month and a medium grade within two months.

Three months later, it is necessary to shock the world again.
