From small town academic to chief scientist

As soon as Birkar said these words, everyone fell silent.

Every day in the Research Assistant Mathematics section, many mathematics professors claim to have proved the Riemann Hypothesis.

As for the generalized Riemann Hypothesis, there are countless others.

There are also some well-known professors among them.

But in the end their papers were found to have irreversible errors.

So it’s hard to say whether Xiao Wanyi’s paper is correct or not.

Their level in the field of analytic number theory has not yet reached the pinnacle of this field.

So I have to find a big boss to take a look.

Who to look for is highly debatable.

They know a lot of people from abroad, and they also know a lot of people from home.

The strongest institution in the field of analytic number theory in China is definitely Chongqing High Court.

Both Zhouyi and Maynard were experts in analytic number theory.

Needless to say, its achievements are

As for foreign countries, they also have a wide network of contacts. From ugly countries to European and island countries, there are basically no top experts in the field of analytic number theory that they don't know.

Qiu Chengtong hesitated for a while and said:

"Even if Wanyi's paper is wrong, it can still be regarded as going in a different direction.

It will provide some ideas to many people, so look for Zhou Yi and others.

I called them personally, Wanyi, what do you think? "

Xiao Wanyi wrinkled her beautiful eyes and said coldly:

"How else can I look at it? I am not wrong. I think I am not wrong. I am a beautiful girl with a genius in mathematics."

Everyone rolled their eyes. No one thought their thesis was wrong.

But there are always a lot of wrong people.

Qiu Chengtong also rolled his eyes. Since Xiao Wanyi won the Fields Medal,

His personality has also changed a lot, and Qiu Chengtong doesn't bother to care.

"Then Wanyi has no objection, let's just do it."

Qiu Chengtong said decisively.

"It's mainly because of Junior Brother Zhou Yi's face that I am willing to evaluate them."

Xiao Wanyi said unconvinced.

Since we can’t get the people and hearts of Zhou Yi, if we can surpass Zhou Yi in the field of mathematics,

That can also be very satisfying.

Moreover, Zhou Yi was busy all day long,

The time spent on studying mathematics is far less than mine. Even if Zhou Yi's talent is worse than mine,

But time and effort will always make up for it.

Not long after, Zhou Yi received a call from Qiu Chengtong.

"Hey, Zhou Yi, I'm Qiu Chengtong."

Qiu Chengtong said on the phone.

"Teacher Qiu, what's wrong?"

Zhou Yi pretended to be confused while pretending to understand.

Qiu Chengtong cursed secretly in his heart and then said seriously:

"Wanyi proved the generalized Riemann hypothesis. We are a little unsure about the paper and would like you and Maynard to help us take a look at it."

Zhouyi said:

"Okay, Teacher Qiu, I will make time to read it."

Qiu Chengtong rolled his eyes and said:

"It's best to check it out in the next few days and just tell me if there are any mistakes."

Zhou Yi also rolled his eyes, my system task is to do this.

Xiao Wanyi proved it right, what should I do with my mission?

I wish I had chosen the rest of the Millennium Mathematics Conjectures.

Although a generalized Riemann hypothesis is very important, compared with a complete millennium mathematical problem,

Still not enough.

It can only be said that it is the first step in the long march to solve the Riemann Hypothesis.

Only those who truly solve the Riemann Hypothesis may be able to compare with the current Zhouyi.

This is also the reason why many people are ready to take action.

Zhou Yi alone created nearly three branches of mathematics.

If you don't prove the most powerful mathematical conjecture, there is no way to compare with it.

Who doesn’t want to step on Zhou Yi’s head and become the leader?

Zhouyi replied:

"Okay Teacher Qiu, after all, I am not as important as Senior Sister Xiao."

Qiu Chengtong frowned and said:

"Don't do it, kid, a generalized Riemann hypothesis cannot surpass you, and my intuition tells me,

Wanyi’s article is most likely wrong. I don't know much about analytic number theory, so it depends on what you say. "

Zhouyi said:

"OK."

Zhou Yi sighed, it's a good thing he didn't tell Xiao Wanyi in person, otherwise the family member would not only sigh and feel weird,

Xiao Wanyi will probably fly directly from Shangjing to Chongqing High Court.

If you don't handle it well when the time comes, you will have to suffer the consequences yourself.

Not long after, Zhou Yi saw an email received on his mailbox.

The email contained Xiao Wanyi's essay.

Zhou Yi sighed. In the past, his papers were reviewed by others for free.

Now I review other people's papers for free.

Cause and effect cycle.

In the past, others would look at their papers with excitement, trembling and unwillingness.

Now I have no choice but to read other people's papers.

Zhou Yi did not ask Maynard to read it together, he read it himself first.

The paper is a bit long, but Zhou Yi's old rule is to look at the abstract for ideas.

It didn't matter at this glance, I directly saw Xia Xue being taken home in the early hours of the night.

Xia Xue still knows a little about Zhou Yi's current scientific research tasks,

He is far less busy than before. It is impossible to be so busy that he doesn’t go home now.

Mostly working overtime again.

The assistant doctor repeatedly told Xia Xue that for the sake of Zhou Yi's health, it was best to rest regularly and not work overtime and stay up late.

For the sake of Zhou Yi's health, Xia Xue will definitely urge Zhou Yi to take a good rest.

Zhou Yi said as he walked:

"Teacher Qiu called me today."

Xia Xue held Zhou Yi's arm and asked softly:

"Is it a big deal?"

Zhou Yi nodded and said:

"It's a big thing, a conjecture even more important than Goldbach's conjecture."

Xia Xue raised her head and looked at Zhou Yi with eyes like stars, as if she had guessed something and asked:

"Maybe it's Senior Sister Xiao who has made a big breakthrough."

Zhou Yi glanced at Xia Xue guiltily and said:

"almost."

Xia Xue rolled her eyes at Zhou Yi and said:

"Most of the papers Mr. Qiu wants you to read are in areas of mathematics that he is not good at.

The only field that the Yau Shing-tung Mathematics Center of Shuimu University is not good at is probably Senior Sister Xiao's field of analytic number theory. "

After saying that, Xia Xue blinked at Zhou Yi, as if to say, am I very smart?

Zhou Yi held Xia Xuexue's white hand and said:

"That's right. Senior Sister Xiao claims to have proved the generalized Riemann Hypothesis."

Hearing this, Xia Xue's mouth turned into a shape of O,

Having been with Zhou Yi for so many years, I have learned a lot about the frontiers of mathematics.

"Then wouldn't it mean that Senior Sister Xiao is going to be famous all over the world?"

Xia Xue said with a hint of surprise.

Zhouyi said:

"It's not necessarily right. There are a few places where I see some problems. Unless something goes wrong, it's probably an irreversible mistake."

Xia Xue said softly:

"Senior, you are also studying this problem. Xueer definitely hopes that you will solve this problem."

The beauty of my wife is my private self.

Zhou Yi held Xia Xue's hand tightly, their eyes facing each other, under the moonlight,

The two long figures were all silent.

Zhou Yi said forcefully:

"It must be me."

After returning home and washing up, Zhou Yi did not stay up late anymore.

Listen to Xia Xue and go to sleep directly.

The next day, Zhou Yi did not read Xiao Wanyi's paper during the day.

Now that you find something wrong, don't worry.

It’s best to deal with the moon landing issue at hand first.

Regarding the moon landing, it is not only the issues that Zhou Yi told the aviation institute before, but

In addition to Zhou Yi's selfishness, he also needed to build a transfer station to defend against aliens, all of which needed to be done on the back of the moon.

Since the Zhouyi overthrew the traditional rocket,

A new generation of spacecraft models is also beginning to be designed.

Zhou Yi said to a group of designers in the laboratory at this moment:

“Since we have abandoned traditional spaceships, our new spaceships must not only be full of technology,

It must also meet the requirements, and it must also meet our calculation requirements.

Ten nuclear fusion engines are enough to support a thousand-ton starship. "

These designers were transferred from other places and have been engaged in the aerospace field.

In order to prevent the spacecraft from falling apart, some mathematicians and physicists participated in the design.

"Okay, Academician Zhou, we will work hard."

After talking to the people here, Zhou Yi came to the Institute of Genetics and Life Sciences.

This institute was built with Professor Yan as the main body.

Professor Yan changed from his own field to the field of studying Zhouyi.

Plants that can grow in space, as well as small animals in captivity,

Various biological experiments will be conducted on the moon.

As for the life and death of these creatures, that is none of the researchers' business.

There is a saying that the mouse is man's best friend.

"Academician Zhou, we are almost ready here. We have been preparing for many years.

Just waiting for the spacecraft to be completed. "

Professor Yan was also looking at Zhou Yi expectantly at this moment.

When the time comes, the people aboard the spaceship will also be people from their research institute.

When you bring it, you can imagine how great the impact of the articles they publish is.

Zhouyi said:

"That's good. By then all the papers will be published in the "Natural Journal of Chongqing High Court".

The impact factors of our series of magazines need to go up.

Our battle for the academic center with the West and the U.S. has not ended yet. "

Professor Yan’s eyes gleamed and he said:

"It is only a matter of time before we surpass them. What we have accumulated over the years has not exploded.

When it breaks out later, it will definitely be earth-shattering and attract the attention of people all over the world. "

After arriving at Professor Yan's side, Zhou Yi went to the Institute of Physics again.

In space, there are many physical experiments that need to be done.

All personnel must be prepared in advance.

When all kinds of things are almost handled,

Zhou Yicai continued to read Xiao Wanyi's paper.

In the mid-19th century, the German mathematician Riemann published a blockbuster opinion in a paper that the secret of the distribution of prime numbers is completely hidden in a special function, which is the famous Riemann zeta function.

A series of special points that make this function take the value 0 will have a decisive impact on the distribution of prime numbers.

These points are called non-trivial zeros of the Riemann zeta function.

If the Riemann Hypothesis is expressed in the most concise language, it is that the real part of all non-trivial zero points of the Riemann zeta function is equal to 1/2;

If the graph is drawn on the complex plane, these zero points are distributed on a straight line with a real part of 1/2.

After the Riemann Hypothesis was proposed, in order to study the distribution of prime numbers on arithmetic sequences, the German mathematician Dirichlet introduced the Dirichlet L function.

This function is regarded as a generalized form of the Riemann zeta function.

Many mathematicians, including Zhou Yi, believe that the zero points on the Dirichlet L function are also located on the straight line with the real part equal to 1/2. This is the generalized Riemann hypothesis.

The generalized Riemann Hypothesis is as important as the Riemann Hypothesis, and its value is unimaginable.

The correctness of many mathematical propositions has been verified assuming that the generalized Riemann Hypothesis is correct.

If the generalized Riemann hypothesis is wrong, a large number of wrong mathematical propositions will follow.

The mathematical disaster brought about is very big.

As for the Landau-Siegel zero-point conjecture,

It is also a conjecture born from studying the generalized Riemann Hypothesis.

The German mathematician Siegel and his mentor Landau discovered when studying the Dirichlet L function that

An abnormal zero point may not exist on the straight line with real part 1/2,

Instead it is located very close to 1.

This zero point is also named the Landau-Siegel zero point.

If this zero point really exists, then the generalized Riemann hypothesis will be overturned.

Although the generalized Riemann Hypothesis has not yet been proven, many mathematicians agree that it is correct.

Therefore, it is speculated that the Landau-Siegel zero point does not exist, which is the Landau-Siegel zero point conjecture.

The result of Xiao Wanyi's previous verification was that the Landau Siegel zero point did not exist.

The final improvements were made based on Zhang Yitang's work and completely solved this problem.

That's why Qiu Chengtong and others were hesitant about Xiao Wanyi's paper.

Because there are only a few people in the world who are most qualified to prove the generalized Riemann Hypothesis.

And Xiao Wanyi is one of them.

Regarding the paper, Zhou Yi spent more than a week reading it.

Regarding Xiao Wanyi's talent, Zhou Yi had to sigh that it was powerful.

The error in the paper was discovered by Zhou Yi.

But some of the correct content involved in it can open up a new branch of mathematics.

Form an introduction to a branch of mathematics.

However, it requires someone with a strong foundation in analytic number theory and geometry to complete it.

If Zhou Yi has arrived now and still doesn’t understand what Qiu Chengtong means,

I have lived so many years in vain.

Obviously, Qiu Chengtong discovered the error here accurately.

And Qiu Chengtong must have discovered the value inside.

His level in analytic number theory was not enough to support the birth of this branch of mathematics.

Xiao Wanyi's current level cannot support the birth of this branch of mathematics.

The entire Shing-Tung Yau Mathematics Center cannot support the birth of this branch of mathematics.

But the Chongqing High Court can do it, and the Zhouyi can do it.

Zhou Yi's achievements in analytical number theory and geometry were too high.

It's simply impossible to ignore.

The strength of the Yau Sing-tung Mathematics Center at Shuimu University is undoubted and it is the world's top mathematics academic center.

But the situation of his successor is not very strong.

If there was a successor comparable to Schultz,

Then Qiu Chengtong will not have to worry about the successor at all.

But if you want to open up a branch of mathematics, you can imagine how difficult it is.

That's something only a math master can do.

Among the younger people in the world, only a few people such as Zhou Yi and Schultz have done it.

If Xiao Wanyi can open up a new branch of mathematics, the significance to the Yau Shing-tung Mathematics Center of Shuimu University will be unparalleled and very important.

Zhou Yi also clearly knew the respective problems, sighed, and helplessly began to write out the errors in the paper and some useful conclusions in the paper.

They helped him improve "Fundamentals of Algebra and Number Theory" at the beginning. Now, no matter what the reason is, Zhouyi wants to help him.
