From all-round academic master to chief scientist

For any conjecture, as long as there is such a counterexample, it means that the conjecture cannot be established. It was only a mathematical coincidence that it could be established before.

Without rigorous proof, the correctness of any proposition is just a coincidence.

Just like the Riemann Hypothesis, people have found ten trillion points to confirm that the Riemann Hypothesis is correct, but they are still looking for more points, because as long as there is a counterexample, it can prove that it is wrong.

Therefore, the counterexample given by Lin Xiao also directly announced that the Ronald conjecture, which was born less than ten minutes ago, has been successfully falsified. The name of this conjecture is currently only known to two people. One is The proposer and the other are the falsifiers.

Ronald was on the verge of tears. He had discovered this trick a few days ago. After trying more than a dozen sets of numbers and all of them were successful, he became convinced of it. Then he ran here to try to make a splash, but failed. The thought made me cry out lonely.

And the people who were watching all around also laughed.

Originally, they thought they were going to witness the emergence of a new achievement in mathematics, but they didn't expect it to be an error.

Ronal probably still had some emotions in his heart, so he couldn't help but ask the question that everyone wanted to know: "How did you see it?"

Lin Xiao spread his hands: "It would be nice to see it directly. First of all, I know that when c=67, 2^67-1 is definitely not a Mersenne prime number. Then I can add another a to equal 29."

He had studied Mersenne primes for so long before. Basically, he had memorized the values ​​of the first twenty or thirty Mersenne primes. Naturally, he knew that when c=67, it would not be true.

But it's still a bit hard for people to understand.

"But how do you know that if you want a=29, you can make them divisible?"

Lin Xiao shrugged: "Probably, you feel it?"

Anyway, he could see it at a glance.

This comes from number sense. As his brain development reached 3.4%, and his math level reached level three, his number sense was once again enhanced, and he was able to accomplish things that seemed unbelievable to others. It was rather relaxing for him.

When the people around him heard what Lin Xiao said, they once again fell into disbelief. Did you feel it?

What kind of god is this?

Looking at this young man from China, they all felt a little unbelievable.

He looks like he's under 20 years old, right?

At this time, Ronald was ready to drag the blackboard away. He came by car, and the car was nearby.

At this time, Ronald glanced at Lin Xiao's badge again. Because of Lin Xiao's action, the badge turned over to the detailed information side. Ronald was stunned when he saw it, "You are ……reporter?"

Lin Xiao saw his gaze and couldn't help but glance down. His nameplate had the English letters "speaker" on it, which meant that he was different from ordinary participants.

He nodded and said with a smile: "Yes, the report I plan to give is also about Mersenne prime numbers. If you are interested, you can come and take a look then."

The people around him were suddenly even more shocked.

If they had been impressed by Lin Xiao's ability shown just now, it was truly unbelievable to learn that he was actually invited to give a report by the International Congress of Mathematicians.

At such a young age, he is actually able to come to such a high-level meeting to give a report...

It was unbelievable to them all.

And it's no wonder that he can find the counterexample in the formula just now at a glance.

When Ronal heard Lin Xiao's words, he felt even more embarrassed. Was this fake Li Gui meeting the real Li Kui?

He was only a half-dabbler. Not to mention whether he could understand the reports, it was still a question of whether he could enter the exhibition. After all, he didn't have the participation certificate hanging around Lin Xiao's neck.

So he waved his hand and said, "Thank you, I won't need it."

Then, he just grabbed the blackboard and ran away.

Lin Xiao felt helpless. As for running so fast?

Run slower...

"Boom!"

As soon as he said something in his mind, he saw Ronald's blackboard falling directly to the ground because of the uneven ground.

Lin Xiao shook his head, forget it, it's better not to hang around here.

Get ready to enter the venue.

But at this moment, a voice came from the side: "Is this Mr. Lin Xiao?"

Lin Xiao was stunned, turned around and saw an old man in a suit walking over and shouting to him.

Seeing this person, Lin Xiao's eyes lit up, "Professor Pompieri!"

"Haha, we meet again."

Pompieri came over. The last time he participated in IMO, he was wearing regular clothes. After putting on a suit now, people can immediately feel the majesty of a professor.

Of course, although he seemed more majestic, he was much more amiable when he had a smile on his face.

"What are you doing?"

"Well, I was just looking at a Mersenne prime number judgment formula created by that gentleman."

Hearing Lin Xiao's words, Professor Pompieri couldn't help but laugh: "Haven't you already figured out the Mersenne prime number distribution rules? Do you still need to look at others?"

"I just wanted to take a look..." Lin Xiaogang was about to explain, but suddenly realized: "Huh? Do you also know that I did it?"

"Haha, I know it because of a coincidence." Professor Pompieri smiled and told Lin Xiao about Professor Sarnak and Professor Deligne looking for him together, and then said: "You solved this problem You didn’t even send me a separate email to talk about the problem.”

Lin Xiao scratched his head in embarrassment: "Sorry, Professor, I was too busy with IMO matters at the time, so I forgot about it later."

"Haha, it's okay, at least it's a surprise for me."

Professor Pompieri waved his hand, indicating that he didn't care, and then said: "Are you going to attend the group speaker meeting? I happen to be going to another meeting as well."

"Yes." Lin Xiao nodded, looked at the time, and was suddenly surprised: "Ah, my meeting will start in ten minutes."

Unknowingly, I have been standing here for more than ten minutes.

Professor Pompieri smiled and said: "Don't worry, there are still ten minutes left, let's go now."

Lin Xiao nodded and walked with Pompieri.

But suddenly someone next to me asked Pompieri: "Excuse me...are you Professor Enrique Pompieri from IAS?"

Pompieri smiled and nodded: "It's me."

"Nice to meet you!" The man said with excitement. This is the winner of the Philippine Prize!

"I'm very happy too." Pompieri responded politely, and then left here with Lin Xiao without stopping.

As others watched the old man and the young man walking further and further away, they couldn't help but feel envious of Lin Xiao.

Perhaps only a young genius like this can communicate like this with a Philippine Prize winner, right?
