From University Lecturer to Chief Academician

"The research on Goldbach's conjecture is only at S level?"

Wang Hao was really surprised. He had always believed that the world's top mathematical problems would be at S+ level, such as the NS equation.

But if you think about it carefully, it's understandable.

NS equation is not only a mathematical problem, but also a systematic research, which is a very complicated problem. Because of this, it can be selected as one of the seven major mathematical conjectures in the millennium.

Goldbach's conjecture is very famous, but one of the reasons why it was not selected for the Millennium Mathematical Conjecture is that it is just a mathematical problem related to prime numbers.

Of course, the Millennium Mathematical Conjecture cannot be used to judge the difficulty of a research, after all, there are some factors of human judgment in it.

From another perspective, it can be understood by comparing the Kakutani Conjecture.

The Kakutani conjecture is just an "ancillary research" of the S-level research results. The research is mainly a mathematical method to solve a class of problems, which includes the Kakutani conjecture, and also includes other conjectures and problems.

The main result of this research is the mathematical method, not the problem that the method can solve.

Goldbach's conjecture is a problem related to prime numbers, which is slightly more difficult than Kakutani's conjecture, but in the end, it is just a mathematical problem.

From this point of view, the difficulty of S rank is already very high.

The main reason why Goldbach's conjecture is so well-known is that it is easy to understand, even elementary school students can understand it, and even think deeply about it.

In addition, the conjecture has been circulated for more than two hundred years and has been continuously proposed by the mathematics community, so it will naturally become very famous.

In this way, Wang Hao also has a more detailed understanding of the system's judgment of the difficulty of R\u0026D projects.

To put it simply, the difficulty below the D level is an ordinary topic.

D-level difficulty, which has reached the scientific research level, can be said to be innovative research.

C-level difficulty already has a certain application value or is much more difficult and has reached the ordinary SCI level. Some excellent applied research will have great influence.

B-level difficulty can be said to be at the level of top journals. The research may not have much applicability, but the difficulty must be very high.

A-level difficulty is not a problem that can be generally solved. It is like the innovation of the multiplication algorithm of large numbers. Problems of similar difficulty may not have progressed for more than ten years, or more than twenty years.

S-level difficulty is already the top research, the most difficult topic, and every S-level difficulty research can be said to shock the world.

With S+ level difficulty, it is difficult to make a judgment.

Wang Hao's understanding of S+ level difficulty is systematic engineering, or research that can lead to great progress in theory or technology.

After deciding to do research on Goldbach's conjecture, Wang Hao also started preliminary work.

He first found a lot of relevant information and papers.

Then, start researching.

These papers are all papers related to Goldbach's conjecture, including Mr. Chen Jingrun's paper on the proof of '1+2'. ".

1+2, of course, does not mean 1+2=3.

Goldbach's conjecture appeared in 1742.

At that time, Goldbach proposed the following conjecture in his letter to Euler. Any integer greater than 2 can be written as the sum of three prime numbers.

Goldbach himself could not prove it, so he wrote to ask Euler, a famous mathematician, to help him prove it.

However, until his death, Euler could not prove it.

However, Euler still did a lot of research. In his reply to Goldbach's conjecture, he proposed another equivalent version, which is the most widely circulated version now, that is, "Any even number greater than 2 can be written as The sum of two prime numbers'.

Because of this, there is a saying of '1+1'.

1+1 is the sum of two prime numbers.

The ‘1+2’ proved by Chen Jingrun means that ‘any sufficiently large even number can be expressed as the sum of two prime numbers, or the sum of a prime number and a semi-prime number’.

The method he used was the most classic 'sieve method'.

Historically, all the proofs related to Goldbach's conjecture have used the sieve method. The sieve method, that is, the sieve method, is easy to understand.

First, arrange the natural numbers in order, starting from the number 1. 1 is not a prime number or a composite number, so it must be crossed out.

The second number 2 is left as a prime number, and all numbers that are divisible by 2 after 2 are crossed out.

The first number not crossed out after 2 is 3, keep 3, and then cross out all the numbers after 3 that are divisible by 3.

The first number not crossed out after 3 is 5, keep 5, and cross out all the numbers after 5 that are divisible by 5...

Doing this all the time will screen out all composite numbers that do not exceed N, leaving all prime numbers that do not exceed N.

This method sounds simple, but in fact, because the screening process is endless, mathematical analysis methods must be used, which involves combinatorial mathematics problems.

Combinatorics, to a certain extent, can be discrete mathematics.

In a broad sense, the analysis of combination numbers is discrete mathematics, but in practical application, combination mathematics in a narrow sense is the remaining part of discrete mathematics after removing graph theory and algebraic structure mathematical logic.

Discrete mathematics is Wang Hao's "specialty".

Therefore, Wang Hao can easily understand Chen Jingrun's research papers and understand the logic of the method.

At the same time, he also made a judgment - just like the common view in the mathematics field, Mr. Chen Jingrun has used the sieve method to the extreme, and only completed the proof of '1+2'.

In other words, this path is impossible.

It's like the research on the exact value of π. Even if you use a computer to calculate tens of billions of digits, it is impossible to get an accurate value of π. π can still only be represented by a symbol, not an exact number.

In other words, it is impossible to solve an irrational number simply by calculation, and it is impossible to prove the '1+1' problem with the 'sieve method'.

Wang Hao put down the paper in his hand, and couldn't help but sigh, "Goldbach's conjecture, it's so difficult to prove it!"

Another reason he sighed was that after reading several related papers, the mission inspiration value only increased by a pitiful 1 point.

This shows that the 'sieving method' will not work at all.

No matter how many similar research papers you read, it will not help solve Goldbach's conjecture, and it will even affect your own thinking and judgment, which has a negative effect on research.

"It seems that we still need to find a new method, and group theory is a good starting point." Wang Hao thought.

Zhang Zhiqiang next to him listened to Wang Hao's whispering, and couldn't help curling his lips, "Goldbach's conjecture is difficult? I also said that Riemann's conjecture is difficult!"

He came over curiously and asked, "Wang Hao, why did you start studying Goldbach's conjecture?"

Wang Hao said depressedly, "Because I couldn't find the direction, I have been studying the NS equation, but the research got stuck and I made no progress, so I wanted to change the direction."

"Isn't the span too big?" Zhang Zhiqiang twitched the corner of his mouth, "NS equations, Goldbach's conjecture, from partial differential equations to number theory, I always think you should specialize and focus on research in one direction."

He seemed to be substituting emotion, and said with emotion, "This is the same as life. Only when you have a single-minded relationship can you reap your own love."

"It's the same for you, Wang Hao. How about you, don't you consider finding a girlfriend? Brother Zhang, I'm from here. If you have any emotional problems, you can definitely ask me."

Wang Hao looked at Zhang Zhiqiang strangely, looked at him carefully, and asked, "Do you have a girlfriend?"

"this……"

"Is there someone you like? Are you pursuing 'single-mindedly'?"

"This...haha..."

Wang Hao suddenly understood, nodded and said, "So, you haven't caught up yet, right? That means you don't have a girlfriend yet."

Zhang Zhiqiang suddenly said depressedly, "You don't need to hit people like this, do you? You haven't either."

"It's different."

Wang Hao said, "I am active single, but you are passive, and you are ten years older than me."

"Even if you say it nicely, you're still single!" Zhang Zhiqiang retorted firmly.

Wang Hao shrugged indifferently.

At this time, a female doctoral student wearing glasses knocked on the door and walked into the office, looked at Wang Hao with admiration, and said in an extremely gentle voice, "Mr. Wang, your annihilation force theory is really amazing. , I read your analysis and research, and I was completely attracted by the description inside."

"I believe that must be the most amazing prediction in the physics world, and it will become a Nobel-level discovery."

Zhang Zhiqiang was numb all over when he heard this, and sat aside full of envy and hatred.

"oh……"

Wang Hao is a little strange. When other people talk about his research, they usually talk about mathematics. Why did they suddenly talk about annihilation force?

The annihilating force was just a 'small analysis' he did, and he didn't even build a mathematical foundation, and there wasn't even a single related paper.

"My name is Wang Yue, and I am doing superconductivity research with Teacher Xiao Xinyu."

Wang Yue made a self-introduction, and then said, "By the way, Teacher Xiao asked me to come over and ask when you have time to go to the physics laboratory, saying yes..."

She took a deep breath and said, "We may have found evidence of the existence of annihilating force!"

"——??"

Wang Hao was shocked when he heard this, the news was really unexpected.

Zhang Zhiqiang also became surprised, and asked curiously, "Your physics laboratory has found evidence of the existence of the annihilation force of the eye, are you kidding?"

Wang Yue glanced at Zhang Zhiqiang and said, "This is the conclusion reached by Teacher Xiao and Professor He, so I came here specially."

She explained in a flat tone, and then looked at Wang Hao with admiration, "Mr. Wang, when do you have time?"

"There are now."

Hearing this situation, Wang Hao definitely couldn't sit still, so he simply went to the physics laboratory with Wang Yue.

Looking at the backs of the two, Zhang Zhiqiang couldn't help but said depressedly, "Women nowadays really have no eyesight. Wang Hao's looks are average, but younger. Didn't you say that? Thirty men are a flower, and the more mature they are, the more attractive they are." "

After he finished speaking, he looked at Luo Dayong, as if seeking support.

Luo Dayong found another mirror from nowhere and placed it in front of Zhang Zhiqiang. Zhang Zhiqiang took a look and found that his hair in the mirror was much thinner.

The more Zhang Zhiqiang looked at it, the more depressed he became, and he asked Luo Dayong, "What do you mean?"

"I'll see you off."

Luo Dayong finished speaking very calmly, as if he had just done something trivial, so he continued to turn his head and look out the window, humming a song--

"I have no direction, how can I have strength. I don't have a dream, so how can I talk about realizing it, thank you for exposing my cowardly side..."

Zhang Zhiqiang felt a little baffled. He searched one of the lyrics out of curiosity, and when he looked at the search results, his head was full of black lines.

The title of the song is, "See Yourself Clearly".

...

physics lab.

He Yi, Xiao Xinyu, Yan Jing and others are discussing the experiment that just passed.

Wang Hao knocked on the office door and was immediately welcomed in warmly.

Xiao Xinyu introduced, "Professor Wang, I asked you to come this time because we may have discovered the 'annihilation force' you mentioned in the superconductivity experiment."

"...What experiment?" Wang Hao's tone was filled with disbelief, because it was so strange.

If it is in microscopic experiments such as particle collisions, through a large amount of data analysis, it is possible to find traces of the annihilation force.

But, the superconductivity experiment?

The superconductivity experiment is not a microscopic physics experiment, so how can it be possible to discover microscopic forces in the experiment?

Xiao Xinyu explained.

They just finished the 'Communication Gravity' experiment.

The theory of 'Communication Gravity' was proposed by Dr. Li Ning thirty years ago.

Li Ning, a physicist at the Space Plasma and Upper Atmospheric Physics Research Center at the University of Alabama in American, believes that ions in a Bose-Einstein condensate are trapped in a high-temperature superconducting disk with a variable magnetic field. At medium time, the anti-gravity effect can be achieved, and its lattice structure can store a large amount of energy. Theoretically, this will generate a gravity-like field, which can increase or decrease the influence of gravity.

Li Ning calls it 'communication gravity'.

The experiment created a beam-like effect above the disk, affecting matter over a distance.

This supports the theory of communicating gravity.

When Li Ning put forward this theory, it was not taken seriously at all, because anti-gravity is too advanced, and the theory of communicating gravity sounds, even a bit sci-fi.

However, 20 years ago, during the anti-gravity experiment conducted by the Dutch team in the magnetic field, it was unexpectedly discovered that the objects on the disk were less affected by gravity by 2%.

This represents an anti-gravity effect, and new results have been achieved.

After that, there was no relevant news in the international physics community. It is said that the Ministry of National Defense of American took over the relevant research.

It has been 20 years until now, and no other news has come out.

The physics laboratory just wants to do research on 'superconducting anti-gravity', and they hope to see the phenomenon of 'gravity reduction'.

Of course, it failed in the end.

There may be many reasons for the failure, but the failure is also expected, because the relevant experiments have no reference content except for some published materials.

Domestically speaking, the 'anti-gravity' phenomenon has not been discovered in superconducting experiments.

Even a failed experiment has brought a lot of results. Every large-scale experiment in physics can be said to be an improvement. Whether there is a result or no result, we can study some related results according to the experimental data and analysis. .

Whether it is an experience summary or a theoretical derivation, it is very valuable.

For example, this "failure" experiment, which was prepared for several months and cost more than 500,000 yuan, was completed with less materials, which is enough to summarize and complete several papers.

Of course, it can definitely be said to be a 'loss' after spending more than 500,000 yuan and only writing a few papers.

When summarizing the experimental data in the physics laboratory, I found a strange problem——

The 'mass deviation' of the superconducting material before and after the experiment.

Although the quality deviation of the superconducting material after the experiment is very small, normally, it is not particularly noticed, but thinking of the annihilation force mentioned by Wang Hao, to a certain extent, it can also be understood as "the annihilation force plays a role, causing The quality deviation of superconducting materials'?

He Yi and Xiao Xinyu hope to understand it in this way.

Of course, even they themselves know that this statement is really untenable, and the possibility of experimental calculation data errors is higher.

So after Xiao Xinyu came out of the explanation, he looked at Wang Hao expectantly, but he was more 'not confident', "Professor Wang, what do you think?"

Wang Hao shook his head silently.

As soon as he heard it, he knew it was impossible. The annihilation force was aimed at the unit of mass. Even electrons, compared to the unit of mass, might be very, very large.

Will a superconducting material lose mass due to the loss of a large number of electrons in experiments?

Possibly possible, but definitely not detectable.

It's like using an ordinary scale to weigh a cow. If you walk over and pluck out a cow's hair, you can't weigh it at all.

However, it is actually reasonable for Xiao Zhenyu and He Yi to understand it this way, because they don't have a clear concept of annihilation force, at most they have read the narrative article published by Wang Hao.

The introduction of that article is very vague, and it is not very precise. Only by combining the mathematical analysis and research of the spectrometer to detect the disappearance of the hyperon decay signal, can we have a deeper understanding of the speculation of the "annihilation force".

Wang Hao was about to shake his head in denial when he suddenly received a system prompt——

[Task 3, inspiration value +13. 】

[Inspiration value: 29. 】

"??"

He froze for a moment.

Because the exact direction could not be found, the research related to the annihilation force has not obtained inspiration for a long time.

Now it has risen so much?

Combined with the information obtained in the brain, it can be confirmed that the discovery of annihilation force has a certain relationship with superconductivity. In other words, superconductivity experiments are also a way to discover annihilation force.

Wang Hao immediately nodded vigorously, "Professor Xiao, Professor He, your research is too important."

"Although the mass loss of superconducting materials is definitely not related to the annihilation force, I think your experiment may have a certain relationship with the annihilation force."

"—?"

This time it was Xiao Xinyu and He Yi's turn to be surprised. They said they discovered the annihilation force, but they only analyzed a very small possibility.

In the end, Wang Hao denied their possibility, but still said that the superconducting experiment was related to the annihilation force?

What is the logic?

Is it to give us some comfort...
