Chapter 565: A world-famous mathematical legend!(1/2)
Professor Tao said he would do some research, but the result was that it simply disappeared and the comment status was not updated for a long time.
However, more mathematicians, mathematics enthusiasts, and netizens from Xia State who came here could not wait and opened the papers to read on their own.
Most of the Xiaguo netizens just came to join in the fun, and they felt dizzy after just two glances, and retreated in defeat.
[This should be the original text that was submitted. There is no way, no domestic journal is qualified to review this paper that proves my guess...]
[I just came here to leave a name and express my support for Qin Shen. I stay away from high-end subjects like mathematics. In a word, Qin Shenniu has gone to heaven——!]
[Don’t blame you, as a high school math teacher, I was defeated after seeing the second page.]
[Senior Qin is amazing, our junior students from Yingyuan Private High School are here to support the show.]
[Although I don’t understand it at all, Male God V5! I believe your paper must be correct!]
Of course, the most painful thing is those self-media columnists and academic media reporters who are somewhat competent but not good enough.
No matter whether Qin Ke proves that Goldbach's conjecture is true or not, they still have to report on this hot topic. But the problem is, this paper can't even be read clearly. How can I write a P! Isn't that just blind? As for the report,
The focus is on Qin Ke himself? Who in the country doesn’t know Qin Ke? Qin Ke is a low-key and decent person. There is really nothing that can be revealed to attract people’s attention!
I don’t know how many media practitioners are painfully pulling out their thin hair. Some people are using various connections to find mathematics professors in universities for interpretation. However, the level of mathematics professors varies greatly. This will obviously shock the entire international mathematics.
No one dared to speak out easily about the great academic achievements of our country, but just found various excuses to reject them.
But truly qualified professors are busy wearing glasses or reading glasses, carefully studying line by line, and verifying it repeatedly, and they have no time to accept interviews from reporters.
As for Qingmu University, they held up a "Do Not Disturb" sign and were very polite to reporters, but did not express any opinions. They could only ask the professors of the entire mathematics department, as well as Mr. Qiu, the dean of Qiuzhen Academy, who gathered together.
In the conference room, we went to collectively review Qin Ke’s paper.
Compared with domestic netizens who are caught up in blind carnival, international netizens behave much calmer, but most of the comments are all kinds of howls:
[I read it carefully for half an hour. Oh my god, I couldn't even finish the first five pages. This paper involves too much knowledge...I didn't even listen to several theorems cited.
I have heard of it, but I only found out that there is such a rare theorem after searching on the Internet. As a first-year PhD student majoring in mathematics at MIT, I am a little skeptical about life.]
[This paper uses neither the sieve method nor the circle method, but a new mathematical method that has never been seen before. Is it original to this author? 】
[I can only barely understand the general idea, and I know that it is proved from the perspective of probability theory and chaos theory, which is indeed very innovative.]
[I can’t stand it anymore. I have to print it out and ask my professor for help! I hope my professor can understand it...]
[Ha, I don’t know where Qin Ke submitted his manuscript. I guess the editors of the four top journals also have a headache. It’s too difficult to find suitable reviewers. 】
…
In Princeton, in the editorial office of the Annals of Mathematics, the editor-in-chief Faltings and several editors-in-chief were also looking through Qin Ke's papers.
Unlike the vast majority of people on the Internet who only pay attention to "Proof of Goldbach's Conjecture", because they accepted submissions, they also saw "A New Analytical Shape Number Theory Processing Method Based on Stochastic Nonlinear Differential Equations", but later
The title of the latter is obviously not as attractive as the title of the former.
It was Sunday night in Xia Guo and it was Sunday daytime in Princeton, which was a statutory rest day. However, including Faltings, everyone in the editorial department had no complaints about the sudden overtime work, but looked at it seriously with serious faces.
these two papers.
Time passed bit by bit, and the silence in the editorial office lasted for more than six hours. Only the occasional sound of drinking coffee and rustling writing and calculations could be heard.
And the expressions on everyone's faces became more and more solemn.
Faltings was the first to put down the two printed papers, slowly raised his head and looked around at the editors with the most mathematical expertise in the editorial department, and asked: "What, what do you think of these two papers?"
Editor-in-Chief Andrew said without hesitation: "The logic is self-consistent, the argument is rigorous, and there is no way to find any flaws. I can only say that he is worthy of being the miracle boy of Xia State, and his level is as stable as ever. This "Proof of Goldbach's Conjecture" is not at all
There is no doubt that it will be the best paper we have received this year. I think its significance is even slightly better than the one we just published, "The Derivation and Proof of the Fourth Group of Expressions of the Riemann Hypothesis" by Qin Ke.
!”
The other editors-in-chief also nodded in agreement:
"I didn't expect that within half a year of conquering the Hailstorm Conjecture, the Goldbach's Conjecture would be even more difficult. It also proves that Qin Ke's talent in mathematics is comparable to Euler and Gauss. This ancient Xia Guo
It’s amazing that the Eastern countries can produce such outstanding mathematicians.”
"Based on this paper, Qin Ke has more than 80% chance of winning this year's Fields Medal." Another editor-in-chief lamented. Within one year, he conquered the hail conjecture and Goldbach's conjecture, and added another one-third
The Riemann Hypothesis of 2. This result is enough to shock the entire international mathematics community. Who can stop it?
If he were not too young and came from the East, his chances of winning the Fields Medal would be 100%.
Suddenly an old editor said: "I think that another article "A New Analytical Shape and Number Theory Treatment Method Based on Stochastic Nonlinear Differential Equations" co-authored by Qin Ke and Ning Qingyun is the real essence. This is
The article "Proof of Goldbach's Conjecture" is nothing more than the use of a mathematical method named 'Lime Number Theory Nonlinear Structural Method' to complete the proof process. This new type of mathematical method has unlimited potential... I think
This will be an epoch-making mathematical processing method that surpasses the sieve method and the circle method."
This chapter is not finished yet, please click on the next page to continue reading the exciting content! Faltings' stern face showed a smile: "It is true, most of you are famous for the 'Goldbach Conjecture'
I covered my eyes and focused mainly on the article "Proof of Goldbach's Conjecture", but ignored another more influential article "A New Analytical Shape Number Theory Processing Method Based on Stochastic Nonlinear Differential Equations"
". To use the idiom of the Xia Kingdom, you are 'buying a piece of paper to return a pearl'! I suggest you read another paper carefully!"
Everyone bowed their heads in shame. They had indeed put most of their thoughts on the "Proof of Goldbach's Conjecture". They simply flipped through the other paper without taking a closer look.
An editor in charge said flatteringly: "Chief Editor, do you know Xia Guo's idioms?"
"I have recently become interested in the culture of the Xia Kingdom. I have just read a few books. Without mentioning this, next we have to worry about finding experts to review these two papers... Who do you have candidates for?" Faltin
Si took off his reading glasses, rubbed his sore eyes and said.
The level of these two papers is too high. From the perspective of the senior editors present, they can only say that no problems are found on the surface and they dare not make any casual conclusions.
Editor-in-chief Andrew thought for a while and suggested: "A mathematical conjecture of such significance as Goldbach's conjecture cannot be published until it is reviewed and approved by eight very famous experts in the number theory field at the same time. You must be one of them, Professor Tao from the University of California.
Counting one, Professor Linden Strauss counts as one, Professor Wiles should also be interested, and the other four suitable and available candidates... I haven't thought of it yet."
The rest of the people also looked at each other in confusion. Although there are many masters of number theory in modern times, it would be difficult to make a final decision on such a series conjecture without inviting a big figure from the Philippine Prize to review it.
Almost all the big players of the Philippine Prize have their own things to be busy with, and it takes a lot of time and energy to verify these two papers - especially during the critical period when the latest Philippine Prize is about to be selected at the end of the year, some qualified
Due to various relationships and concerns, the big judges may not agree to participate in the review work, which will boost Qin Ke's reputation and increase his probability of winning the Philippine Award.
Professor Tao, Professor Linden Strauss, and Professor Wiles whom Andrew just named have a very good impression of Qin Ke and Ning Qingyun, and they should be able to help with this. The other suitable candidates really need to spend some time and energy.
Looked for it.
Faltings glanced at the calendar on the table and murmured: "There is plenty of time, but we can't delay it. Just list all the experts who are qualified for review as soon as possible, and I will call them one by one.
There should be someone who sells me this face."
He patted the two papers in his hands gently, and his sore eyes showed unconcealed praise and appreciation.
Back then, the master of mathematics Hardy was able to put aside differences in family background, nationality and skin color, and without any selfish intentions introduced a near-god mathematical genius like Ramanujan to the mathematics world, which made the international mathematics community have a lot of dazzling and outstanding achievements.
Tingsi, you also have such a mind and courage to do it!
Faltings couldn't help but smile when he recalled the recent phone call from Mr. Qiu from Xia State, who wanted to promote Qin Ke and Ning Qingyun to become candidates for the Steele Prize of the American Mathematical Society.
Probably, in the future history of mathematics, my name will be linked with Qin Ke and become a legend? Just like Hardy and Ramanujan.
This seems interesting, doesn't it?
The only pity is that this kid doesn't come to study at Princeton University, otherwise I really want to take him as a disciple.
…
Qin Ke claimed to have proved Goldbach's conjecture. In this era of advanced communication in modern society, it did not take long to spread throughout the world, and it shocked countless mathematicians who paid attention to him.
Especially those mathematicians who see him as a serious rival for the Philippine Prize.
In Eagle Country, Professor Maynard of the Department of Mathematics at Oxford University is still immersed in research. His goal is to win the Fields Medal this year, because he is thirty-seven years old this year. This is the last chance. If he misses it,
He will never win the Nobel Prize in mathematics, so he is still racing against time to strive for more outstanding academic achievements.
Suddenly the door to his office was pushed open, and his friend Professor Ike Eddy rushed out nervously: "Bronco (Professor Maynard's full name is Bronco Maynard), that miracle boy from the East,
Claims to have proven Goldbach’s conjecture!”
Professor Maynard was shocked, raised his head and said in disbelief: "Goldbach's conjecture?"
Professor Eddie was worried: "Yes, the paper has been uploaded to arXiv. Although I am not specialized in number theory, I just read it hastily and there seems to be no problem. Tao Zhexuan from the University of California also left a message that he is reading it, but there is no feedback.
Make specific judgments after reading.”
Professor Maynard lowered his head and did not answer, but the fear in his eyes became a little thicker.
With Qin Ke's momentum of winning several awards in a row at this time, I'm afraid he wouldn't release such big news that shocked the world without being sure, not to mention that there are papers to prove it. It doesn't look like he is doing it to make his competitors confused.
means.
"Did he really prove it? That's Goldbach's conjecture..." Professor Maynard is best at Diophantine equations, which belongs to the category of algebraic number theory. Naturally, he is no stranger to Goldbach's conjecture. In fact,
He also spent more than half a year delving into this world-famous problem, but came back without success.
At this time, he didn't know what it felt like when he heard that Qin Ke, whom he regarded as his biggest competitor, had actually proved Goldbach's conjecture.
Cringe, jealousy, admiration, suspicion, surprise... all kinds of emotions filled his heart. He opened his laptop, and with Professor Eddie's prompts, he quickly found the top paper on the arXiv website.
Before he could open the paper and take a closer look, Professor Eddie suddenly pointed at the comment area and exclaimed: "Hey, Tao Zhexuan has a new reply!"
Professor Maynard looked in the direction he pointed, and sure enough he saw a comment with tens of thousands of likes, posted by Professor Tao from the University of California.
Below the comment he replied again:
