The turbulence problem is indeed a very troublesome problem. Of course, it is not easy to be selected by the Clay Mathematics Institute as one of the seven major problems of the millennium.

This made Qiao Yu suspect that the old man deliberately placed this book "Navi Stokes Equation and Turbulence" in the most eye-catching position to facilitate his plan.

He is confused!

Fortunately, Qiao Yu soon forgave himself.

There are many stories about being smart and confused in this world, and not many of them. No one can win all the time except those who live in white houses.

When I went out to meet Lao Zheng, I returned to Yanbei International Mathematics Research Center, and when I entered the door, I happened to see Professor Xue walking out of the inside with a student.

After saying hello, Qiao Yu asked casually: "Professor Xue, I have a topic that can win the Fields Medal. Are you interested?"

"Qiao Yuantu, you are still so humorous. I can still look forward to it next time I change it to the Wolf Award, so forget about the Fields Award." Xue Song replied casually with a wry smile.

There is no way, as we all know, the Fields Medal is quite dead! Xue Song was already forty years old the year before. He has no fate with the Fields Medal in this life.

"No, no, no, I can still look forward to it, and there are precedents, so I can guarantee that I can get a silver medal!"

The metaphor explains.

"Haha, then I'm even less interested. There are only a few topics that can get the Fields Silver Medal, and two hands are enough to count them. I'm not interested in any of them. I'm just an ordinary professor, so don't tease me."

Xue Song simply refused.

What a joke? The problems of silver medals are all problems that normal mathematicians spend their whole life and are likely to be able to solve.

Of course, people like Qiao Yu are not normal mathematicians. Others may not be able to do the topics he can do.

If Qiao Yu invited him to take action, it might not be possible. But the silver medal was spoken, which was not an invitation to take action.

You should know that the International Mathematics Alliance is very cautious when identifying contributors to these major problems. It usually determines who made the results and then awards the award to the one who contributes the most.

Just like Russian scholar Perelmann resolved the Poincaré conjecture, there were also many controversies back then.

Many mathematicians cannot understand the proof process written by this mathematical genius. So many people began to explain and complete the work based on Perelman's paper.

Simply put, it is to make up for those omitted parts that everyone cannot understand. Mr. Yuan, Tian Yanzhen and some Chinese scholars have done a lot of work.

This also led to controversy in the academic community at that time about who completely solved this issue.

But in the end, the International Mathematics League awarded the award separately to Perelman.

The reason given is that this solution was first proposed by Lao Pei, especially the concept of "finite time singularity" and "W-entropy formula".

These mathematical innovations are the core of proving the Poincaré conjecture. Therefore, the main ideas of proving Perelman were completed independently, so although others did a lot of work in the end, they only recognized Perelman as the terminator of the problem.

This is actually very consistent with the laws of development of mathematics. Innovation at the mathematical level has always been made by a few people.

Most mathematicians’ lifelong work is to promote and complete these innovations. Therefore, mathematics is probably one of the disciplines that advocate the most genius worship.

Moreover, the evaluation of mathematicians is also a system. Among them, the most responsible ones are undoubtedly the pioneers of a certain discipline and the terminator of a certain problem.

At present, the metaphor has done both. The proposer of algebraic geometry and the terminator of the Riemann conjecture.

So to be honest, it is understandable that Lao Xue is not enterprising when he starts to be unreliable.

If it were him, he would probably have no intention of continuing to do scientific research after achieving so many achievements at such a young age.

Lao Xue also knew that both the school and the research center had high expectations for Qiao Yu. So as soon as Qiao Yu spoke, he knew that this was the boss who was starting to put up tasks for Qiao Yu again.

The best way to deal with it is of course not to get involved.

So he didn't give Qiao Yu the chance to continue persuading him, and Xue Song took the initiative to talk about other topics.

"By the way, how is the situation of manned moon landing? I think I haven't reported it in the past two days?"

Qiao Yuyi replied in a relaxed mood: "What are you reporting on the road? You have to wait until tomorrow afternoon to enter the low-month track set up before connecting with the material warehouse. You will probably have to wait until tomorrow night to officially land."

Speaking of this question, Xue Song became interested: "I heard that after the lunar scientific research station is completed, you can directly see it on Earth with ordinary astronomical telescopes. Is it true?"

"Well, it depends on the resolution of the angle of the general astronomical telescope you mentioned. But Professor Xue, we don't have to be so polite. If you just want to know the scale and design plan of the scientific research station, you can just say it directly.

The materials brought this time were able to build a space of about 300 square meters. The initial design had two floors, one floor underground and one floor on the ground. The underground was mainly a living area, and the ground was an experimental area.

The division of labor can be said to be quite reasonable. When scientists are allowed to go up in the middle of the year, they will bring another batch of materials to expand. Moreover, the scientific research base will gradually be opened to ordinary people in the future.

I have also won some quotas for the International Mathematics Alliance. Those mathematicians who have made outstanding contributions to world mathematics will have the opportunity to give priority to the seven-day tour of the moon regardless of their country.

All expenses are paid by the International Mathematics Alliance. So if you are willing to take over this project, you will have the opportunity to become the first mathematician to land on the moon in the future. How about it? Are you interested in my proposal just now?"

"That-forget it, Academician Qiao, I'm afraid of heights! By the way, I'll take the students to attend a lecture and leave first."

After saying that, Xue Song turned his head and looked at the student who was about to talk to Qiao Yu, and then left without hesitation under the regretful gaze of his own students.

In fact, it is not only the students who feel sorry, but Qiao Yu also feels quite sorry.

It was still the past professors who had aspirations, and those who could draw a big cake would be like being injected with chicken blood.

Now even Professor Xue is lazy. He doesn't even look down on the Silver Medal of the Fields Medal.

At this time, the students who were admitted to Yanbei after Lao Xue came to Yanbei also felt extremely sorry and couldn't help asking.

"Boss, Academician Qiao asked you to do such a good project, but you refused if you didn't listen! If you could really get a Fields Silver Medal, that would be really amazing."

Xue Song couldn't help glaring at his beloved disciple and scolded without hesitation: "Daughty! The Fields Silver Medal is really so easy to get. Will Wiles get it now?

The mathematical topics that can allow Academician Qiao to introduce are nothing more than the unsolved problems proposed by the Clay Institute in the Millennium.

P=NP, N-S equation, four-color problem, BSD conjecture and Yang Mills theory existential and mass gaps, which one do you think is qualified to hit the car?

I will also get the Fields Silver Medal! I dare to take this project, and someone will come to talk to me tomorrow. Maybe I will be transferred away the day after tomorrow! This is the master of the top fight, do you want to get involved?"

This is life experience.

Obviously, for the newly started students, I never expected that a topic would be so complicated and I hadn't reacted for a while.

He asked subconsciously: "Fighting? What kind of fighting?"

"What else can students fight with teachers? Isn't it just the tasks assigned by the tutor that students don't want to do those things? I asked you to ask questions every week, how did you fool me. Qiao Yu just wants to fool his former tutor, do you understand?"

Xue Song sneered.

"That-in fact, I really didn't fool you in my group meeting!" said the student Shanshan.

He really understood that way.

But I didn’t expect that I had reached the position of academicians, and there were still people who were forced to do projects.

But no matter how you hear it, it seems like a kind of happiness.

After all, ordinary tutors will not place such unrealistic hopes on their students.

Not to mention the four major problems of the millennium, just one small problem is fine. It’s like Professor Xue asked him to choose topics directly in the application direction, and don’t touch the theory.

Finally, he determined the direction of data analysis and did some algorithm optimization in quantum computing direction.

At first he felt that his mentor underestimated him a little, but now he only thinks that his mentor knows him very well.

At that time, he really wanted to do theory, let alone graduation thesis, and probably wouldn't be able to pass the mid-term assessment.

It’s really hard for Yanbei to do a doctorate in mathematics now! He’s really bald!

Choosing a direction is a big problem.

The most popular theoretical research direction in Yanbei now is Qiao algebraic geometry. Even if you don’t choose these directions, you have to lean in this direction.

After all, when you go out to attend a seminar now, everyone is using this theory to do the topic. Naturally, the same is true for the mentors.

But I have never been exposed to this thing before, so it is too difficult to fully master the theory. It is many times more difficult than applying it directly.

This is actually easier to understand in science and engineering subjects that are not majoring in mathematics.

If you do theoretical research, you need to understand this theory thoroughly and then expand it. But if you only apply it, it will be simple. Just use the proven theorem directly.

It's like when learning signals and systems, you only need to know how to do Fourier transforms. The formulas are there, even if you don't fully understand them, just copy them and copy them directly.

But if you want to learn it thoroughly, there are more things to think about. For example, why do many signals appear after Fourier transform? As we all know, the imaginary part in mathematics often has no physical meaning. So what is the meaning of the imaginary part?

For example, he is exposed to a lot of linear algebra.

Nowadays, we need to understand the eigenvalues ​​and eigenvectors of the matrix, singular value decomposition, and diagonalization of the matrix.

It is also necessary to combine the modal systems in algebra.

But if you only do the application, you can ignore the above. He only needs to know how to use Eulafa, Longge-Kutafa or other methods to solve it, just like his previous seniors.

Yes, for Yanbei University’s mathematics proficiency, the difficulty of doing theory and applying is so huge.

If I had studied for a Ph.D. at Yanbei University before, the difficulty of conducting theoretical research was nine, but now it has soared to twenty. However, the difficulty of conducting application is still at seven.

In the past, ordinary mathematical geniuses could challenge theoretical research if they wanted to try it.

But now, in the words of Director Xue, as long as you are not that kind of super genius at Yanbei University, or not only have great interests, but also have a mine at home, it is best to do the application honestly, otherwise the pressure of graduation will be too great to bear at all, and the learning process will make people doubt life.

He didn't believe it before, but now he not only believes it, but he has even begun to thank his mentor.

After all, his family really has no mine, so it is impossible for him to support him in the process of postponing the graduation, and he may not even get the degree certificate in the end.

It's not a joke at all. It is said that the School of Mathematics of Yanbei University and the Yanbei International Mathematics Research Center have now begun to study how to reduce the difficulty of graduation from a doctorate in theory.

Otherwise, there are too many doctoral students on both sides, and the school is under great pressure.

Thinking about the words of the mentor just now, I can only say that Academician Qiao is too cruel! If he doesn’t want to touch a certain topic, then who will really take it and die!
