From university academician to chief academician

Before Ye Feiren arrived at the hotel, the news that he wanted to prove p=t spread to Stack Exchange, and everyone who saw it didn't believe it.

"Impossible. Ye Fei just proved the singular cardinality a month and a half ago, and now he proves p=t?"

"That is, this is not 1+1=2, but p=t, one of the two major problems of the minimal tower."

"Cantor didn't dare to say this even after he was reborn. It took him one and a half months to prove that p=t. He's a liar!"

"Ye Fei is definitely a liar. I'll wait two hours to see him get slapped in the face."

"..."

On the way to the hotel!

Dong Siyuan asked: "Have you really proved that p=t?"

Ye Feidao: "Is there still a lie?"

"Didn't you just prove the singular cardinality a month and a half ago? It's only been a month and a half!"

After all, the minimal tower problem was an unsolved problem in 1982. If it were so easy to solve, it wouldn't have been unsolved in 1982.

"I know!" Ye Feidao: "But what's the problem?"

"Of course there is a problem." Dong Siyuan said doubtfully: "The time is too short. How could you solve p=t in one and a half months?"

"Haha..." Ye Fei chuckled and said, "Sometimes the burst of inspiration only takes a moment."

"Especially math!"

Dong Siyuan nodded. It was indeed true. After several years of thinking, there might not be a momentary burst of inspiration.

"Congratulations," Dong Siyuan said with a smile.

After returning to the hotel, Ye Fei immediately took out his computer and started writing p=t thesis.

At this time, many people around the world are waiting for his paper to come out.

Zhonghu University!

Professor Lu Yishan is reading literature in his office. In order to keep up with Ye Fei's progress, he has only been studying these days besides sleeping.

Even when eating or going to the toilet, I would read literature while holding it in my hands.

After all, Ye Fei only went to the forum for three days and would come back in the morning of the fourth day.

The time was tight and the tasks were heavy, so he could not relax for a moment.

"Professor Lu, Professor Lu..." Suddenly there was a cry from outside.

Professor Liu Yisheng appeared at the door of the office.

Lu Yishan said without raising his head: "Don't disturb me if you have nothing to do. I'm very busy."

"Professor Lu!" Liu Yisheng said anxiously, "Something big has happened."

Lu Yishan still said without raising his head: "No big deal is important to me. I won't care if the sky falls."

"Ye Fei said he proved p=t?"

"What?" Lu Yishan looked up, unable to believe his ears.

"Ye Fei said on the forum that he had proved p=t, and now many mathematicians studying set theory around the world know it."

"Really?" Lu Yishan stood up in surprise.

Ye Fei worked with him on the minimal tower problem. How could he not know Ye Fei's progress?

They have just worked out half of it, and there is still a long way to go before p=t.

He could still go out for three days and study p=t?

How can it be?

Lu Yishan quickly took out his mobile phone and called Ye Fei.

[The phone you dialed has been turned off]

"Shut down?" Lu Yishan was stunned for a moment and called Dong Siyuan again.

"Hey, Professor Lu!"

"Ye Feizhen said he proved p=t?" Professor Lu asked anxiously.

"Yes!" Dong Siyuan said.

"How could he say such a thing?" Professor Lu asked, "What's going on?"

"Professor Lu, listen to me, the thing is like this..." Dong Siyuan explained the matter in detail.

"This kid..." Professor Lu said with a smile: "Such a good thing happened to him."

He smiled bitterly in his mind and shook his head: "A few years of hard work by ordinary people is not as good as a moment of inspiration from a genius."

"Where is Ye Feiren?" Professor Lu asked.

"He's in his room, writing a paper on p=t."

"Then let him write it!"

Two hours later, Ye Fei finished writing his paper, checked it and sent it to Arxiv.

Soon, many people were reading his paper.

But many people can’t understand it, and those who can understand it haven’t spoken out yet.

After all, this is a problem that has not been solved for 82 years, one of the two major problems of the minimal tower problem.

It is difficult to verify in a short time.

Ye Fei walked out of the room, and Dong Siyuan stepped forward and said, "Professor Lu just called. He already knows about this."

"I know." Ye Fei said, "Let's go and have something to eat."

After that, he walked towards the restaurant.

When Ye Fei arrived at the restaurant, many people were reading Ye Fei's paper. Seeing Ye Fei appear, someone came up and said, "Ye Fei, can you explain the paper you wrote?"

"Yeah, let's explain it!"

"..."

Ye Fei stopped helplessly and said, "Since you want to listen, let's give it twenty minutes and I will tell you after dinner."

"Okay!" Everyone said quickly, and they also contacted other people to listen together.

Eventually, thousands of people gathered in the restaurant.

All the math people who participated in the forum came, as well as many people from physics, chemistry, materials and energy.

After all, there is no separation between mathematics, physics and chemistry. Materials and energy are cross-projects of physics and chemistry.

Therefore, people who are good at physics, chemistry, materials and energy are also good at mathematics.

Ye Fei saw that there were too many people and asked the hotel to arrange an event hall.

Ye Fei stood at the front of the hall, with a laptop on the table in front of him and the paper he had just written on the projector screen behind him.

Ye Feidao: "If you want to prove that p=t, it is actually very simple."

"Simple?" Everyone looked like a question mark. If it were so simple, it wouldn't have taken 82 years to figure it out.

"When p=min{|A|:AP(ω), A has a strong finite intersection property, but there is no infinite set a of the natural number set ω..."

"Only by letting α\u0026lt;β and deducing the infinite set can p=t."

"This is my explanation, do you understand?"

Through the explanation this afternoon, Ye Fei learned that many people have very little knowledge and would not be able to understand explanations that are too profound.

Only by explaining it from the bottom can they understand it.

"So that's it!" Everyone suddenly realized: "It turns out that it's really simple. We were all stuck in our thinking in the past."

"It's obviously a very simple question, but we want to complicate it."

"Awesome!" Everyone looked at Ye Fei with admiration: "It actually took one and a half months to prove that p = t. The minimal tower problem has been solved for more than half. The next step is to prove p = t under ZFC. This A problem that had remained unsolved for 82 years has been solved.”

All the young scholars present were conquered by Ye Fei's intelligence. It would be impossible not to admire him!

Who can prove p=t in one and a half months?

No one but Ye Fei can do it.

If they were top academics in school before, then Ye Fei was the academic god.

Many university professors present looked at Ye Fei with admiration: "Judging from his performance today, he will become the world's top mathematician in the future."

"I just don't know if he can reach the same height as Terence Tao?"

Many Xia people are full of expectations for Ye Fei.

Xia Guotai needs a native genius to lead the rise of Xia's mathematics community.

They see hope in Ye Fei.

Around ten o'clock that night, people in the main section of mathematics and the subsection of set theory on Stack Exchange went crazy.

Crazy for Ye Fei!

After all, Ye Fei's behavior was so insane, and it was proven that p=t in a month and a half.

Who can do it?

No one can do it.

Only Ye Fei created a miracle today.

After all, mathematics is not a manufacturing industry. Improving working hours in the manufacturing industry can speed up the completion of work ahead of schedule.

But mathematics is not, even if you want to speed up, there is no way.

It requires the accumulation of knowledge and the explosion of inspiration.

Accumulation of knowledge takes time, and bursts of inspiration require sporadic occurrences.

It cannot be measured in time.

In the set theory section of Stack Exchange, the top fifty hot posts are all attributed to Ye Fei’s proof of p=t.

[Full video of Ye Fei proving p=t]

[Ye Fei, it took him one and a half months to prove the biggest problem of the minimal tower problem, p=t]

[Ye Fei, the most talented genius in the field of set theory this century]

[The eternal god in the field of set theory]

[I declare that Ye Fei will definitely be able to prove the continuum hypothesis]

【……】

Someone clicked on the post and saw countless fanatic fans of Ye Fei.

"Genius, Ye Fei is definitely a genius in the field of set theory."

"Ye Fei is the most talented genius in the field of collection in the past two hundred years."

"According to Ye Fei's research speed, he may really be able to prove the continuum hypothesis."

"It's so exciting. I may see Hilbert's first problem proven in my lifetime."

"Ye Fei, you will be my idol from now on."

"..."

There are also fans in the academic circle, and as long as you have a fan, you will be a die-hard fan, and you will be a die-hard fan for life.

Ye Fei's operation attracted countless fans.

As long as Ye Fei lives and doesn't do anything inappropriate, these people will remain fans for the rest of their lives.

Moreover, these fans come from all over the world and span all age groups.

The key is, these people are high-level intellectuals.

They may be the bosses of listed companies, the world's super rich, professors at well-known universities, researchers at cutting-edge research institutes, or students at the world's top universities.

Although the quantity is not as good as the fans in the entertainment industry, the quality is higher than the fans in the entertainment industry.
