From all-round academic master to chief scientist

"You said that the zero energy condition will cause the growth of the energy storage function to be limited? What is going on?"

At an impromptu group meeting, Tang Qing and Cao Chengqing both looked at Lin Xiao seriously.

When they learned the news yesterday, they felt very incredible. It was precisely because of this that they immediately started the meeting today.

And if it is really like what Lin Xiao said, then something big will happen.

"Do you know what this means?"

Lin Xiao nodded and said: "I know, this means that the dominant behavior of the energy storage function of any expansion strain is determined by the propagation speed of the medium."

After hearing Lin Xiao's answer, Tang Qing and Cao Chengqing both nodded. It was indeed the case.

If this result can be verified to be true, it will bring a big shock to all those who study the Navierstock equation.

I don’t know how many other related topics this will bring about a sudden enlightenment effect, and you must know that there are many people who study problems like these.

At the same time, they couldn't help being surprised. Why did Lin Xiao also know that this was related to the propagation speed in the medium?

Tang Qing asked: "Didn't you know anything about physics before?"

Lin Xiao answered truthfully: "I have been reading books and papers on this topic in the past two weeks, so I understand it."

"This... is incredible."

Hearing what Lin Xiao said, the two professors didn't know what to say at this time. Lin Xiao actually went to learn this knowledge. How long has it been!

He can actually see the physical meaning behind this?

Could it be that someone who is good at mathematics can really master mathematics and physics easily?

Suddenly, Tang Qing remembered what Wang Wei had told him before. Lin Xiao could infer the physical meaning behind mathematical formulas. This ability is quite rare in the world of mathematical physics. Even Tang Qing could not do it.

Now it seems that Lin Xiao's physical talent is not as simple as Wang Wei said.

Of course, putting aside these surprises, the most important thing at the moment is to get verification from Lin Xiao.

Although this conclusion surprised them very much, the mathematical physics community naturally abides by the ancient tradition in mathematics, that is, only through the most rigorous mathematical proof can the truth or falsehood of a proposition be determined.

Without proof, it is all false.

"No matter what, classmate Lin Xiao, you have to come up with a complete proof to convince us now."

"No problem at all."

Lin Xiao nodded and began to write calculations on the blackboard.

Academician Tang and Professor Cao sat down and read it carefully. No matter how shocking the conclusion was, mathematics would not deceive them.

Although sometimes mathematics will show results that are really incomprehensible, they will ultimately conform to all the laws of the world.

Just like the parity non-conservation theory jointly proposed by Chen Ning Yang and Li Zhengdao, this new theory breaks the previously understood law of parity conservation for the world, saying that this world is parity non-conservation, that is to say, a particle is illuminating When using a mirror, the properties of the particles in the mirror image are not exactly the same as the particles themselves.

This conclusion obviously violated everyone's cognition, so even Pauli, who originally proposed Pauli's exclusion law, thought it was impossible, although its mathematical conclusion has made this conclusion obvious.

But later, a well-designed physical experiment proved this result, and the world was shocked. This means that they have defined absolute left and right. If one day we have contact with an alien civilization, as long as the other party also When we know the law of non-conservation of parity, we can use this method to determine whether the place we are in is left or right.

In addition, the theory of relativity is also derived mathematically based on the theory of the invariance of the speed of light, such as the famous mass-energy equation.

So this is why it is said that mathematics is the language of the universe, because as long as its process is correct, the results will often be correct.

So, as Lin Xiao listed the formulas line by line, the two professors also changed from a solemn treatment at the beginning to a sudden realization.

They gradually understood the meaning behind this line of expressions.

Several other graduate students and postdocs in the research group were also here. Looking at the formula written by Lin Xiao, these graduate students fell into confusion again.

A graduate student quietly asked a postdoc: "Senior, do you know what Lin Shen wrote above?"

"I do not know……"

The postdoc said blankly, while the other postdoc shook his head, obviously not understanding either.

Several graduate students were helpless immediately. Good guy, even the two postdoctoral fellows couldn't understand this time. You must know that in the last group meeting, when Lin Xiao went up to write something, the two postdoctoral fellows could still rely on their hard work. Those who were thinking about keeping up could not keep up at this time.

They felt like crying for a while.

Why is it so difficult? !

…

[|Ωu(x)|+|u(x)|Vm……]

Finally, when Lin Xiao almost filled up the blackboard, he came up with the final formula.

"It can be seen that through these complex changes, it is obvious that our zero energy condition has caused the energy storage function to be limited, which also shows that the propagation speed of the medium plays a major influencing role as an independent variable. .”

Seeing this conclusion, the two professors had no doubt admitted Lin Xiao's inference. Undoubtedly, this result could not only be published as a major success, but also provide considerable assistance to their research.

However, there is an embarrassing problem. They need to wait for Lin Xiao's results to be published first, and then they can cite them, unless Lin Xiao writes the results into their paper.

But can this be said?

Obviously not, it seems like they want the result of free prostitution.

Compared with the importance of Lin Xiao's achievement and their final result, it remains to be seen whether it is more important or not.

Unless Lin Xiao is allowed to do it.

But if Lin Xiao becomes the first author, then Academician Tang, as the project applicant, will obviously be in a more embarrassing position.

Of course, this kind of issue can be discussed later. For now, let’s express our admiration first.

Tang Qing applauded and praised: "Excellent, classmate Lin Xiao, you have once again achieved an outstanding result."

Cao Chengqing also applauded, but with a wry smile on his face: "Classmate Lin, are you really just the result of studying mathematics and physics for two weeks?"

Lin Xiao said shyly: "It seems... it should be three weeks, right? I spent about a week learning the big things before."

Everyone: "..."

Can such a big thing count as mathematical physics?

Undergraduate students in the physics department will not study this book. At most, only science and engineering students who are not majoring in physics will study it.

"Okay, okay, stop attacking me and use your magical powers." Cao Chengqing waved his hands, leaned back tactically, and collapsed on the back of the seat.

The silent pill is spicy!

People who are good at math are monsters!

The other six young people saw that Academician Tang and Professor Cao from the Institute of Physics behaved like this, and they also knew that Lin Xiao had achieved something extraordinary.

At this time, what Academician Tang Qing said made them realize what an incredible achievement this was.

"Please sort out your results and send them to AML. Your process and conclusions are very suitable for this journal."

Upon hearing what Academician Tang said, these young people were immediately shocked.

They study applied mathematics, so of course they know what "AML" is.

"APPLIED-MATHEMATICS-LETTERS", Applied Mathematics Letters.

As a journal in the field of applied mathematics, it has an impact factor of 3.5 in 2018, making it one of the top journals in applied mathematics.

The average impact factor of journals in mathematics is very low, because the impact factor is affected by the number of citations. There may seem to be many people studying mathematics in the world, but compared to other disciplines, there are too few. This leads to the impact of journals. Factors are too low, especially in pure mathematics.

For example, "Annals of Mathematics", one of the four top journals in mathematics, has an impact factor of just over 4 in 2018, while applied mathematics has relatively more, but applied mathematics here refers to the study of other practical technologies. Applications, such as finance, etc., and mathematical physics also belong to the category of counting, but because it still involves basic theory, the number of citations is not that high. "AML" can have an impact factor of 3.5, which is already very high .

Lin Xiao was also a little surprised when he heard Tang Qing's proposal: "Can it be published on that?"

"Of course it's no problem, and it's very suitable." Tang Qing nodded and said, "It mainly provides a channel for rapid publication of important but short papers. You see, you wrote a blackboard style. Although it looks like a lot, if you print In WORD, there are probably not many pages, and the review speed is usually two to three weeks, which is very fast.”

"That's really a good fit."

Lin Xiao nodded.

Regarding Tang Qing's proposal, he did not wonder why he should publish this paper separately. Although he did not know the importance of his paper because he did not have a high understanding of the mathematical physics world, he also It is clear that this result is quite meaningful and can be published separately.

"Haha, and it is also very suitable for our topic. When you publish it, we can just quote it. If the review time is too long, such as "CPAM" which takes an average of 12 weeks, it will be too It’s grown.”

Tang Qing said with a smile.

"OK."

Lin Xiao nodded.

"Then that's it for today." Tang Qing looked at Cao Chengqing and said with emotion: "Chengqing, it seems that we are one step closer to success."

Cao Chengqing, who was still leaning on the back of his chair, nodded.

With Lin Xiao's achievement, they were indeed close to success again.

Originally, they were all prepared for long-term research. The research cycle of mathematics projects is generally very long. The short one may be half a year and nine months, and the long one may even be one to three years. But who would have expected that they would pop up here. Lin Xiao immediately brought them all kinds of surprises.

Perhaps, it won't be long before they can also solve the problem.
