From University Lecturer to Chief Academician

Chapter 172 Reporter Interview Application Seminar, Embarrassed Academician of Mathematics: Why don&

The Science and Technology Award Conference has come to an end, and the members of the leadership team have left early.

The atmosphere of the venue became more active.

Media reporters are also allowed to enter the lobby and conduct interviews at will.

Many scholars who have confidence in their research projects are waiting for reporters to interview them. Even among the award-winning projects, there are some who have received attention and those who have not.

There are some items that are very much in the spotlight.

For example, it's like a large physics project, and there are some medical related science projects.

Mathematics research is often the least concerned, because a lot of mathematical theoretical research work is divorced from reality, and it is difficult for ordinary people to understand even if it is said.

Today is an exception.

More than a dozen reporters walked towards Wang Hao, even feeling like chasing after a star.

The number of a dozen people does not sound like a lot. In fact, there are no more than fifty reporters who can enter the lobby. In other words, more than one-third of the reporters are all directed at Wang Hao.

Even the official media cares about traffic, and no media wants their reports to go unnoticed.

Wang Hao is the source of traffic.

In this hall, few scholars can match the attention Wang Hao received, including the two old academicians who won the highest science and technology award, and few people pay attention to it among ordinary people.

The reporters all went to interview Wang Hao, and other scholars could only watch with wry smiles.

Of course, other scholars were also interviewed, but there were hundreds of people in the venue, so it would be nice to meet a reporter for an interview.

Zhu Peng and Wang Hao stood together, and they were going to leave together.

When he saw many reporters coming towards him, especially towards him, Zhu Peng subconsciously felt that he was here to interview him. He waved his hand with a smile, and then saw a group of reporters surrounding Wang Wang who was next to him. Hao.

He was directly pushed away.

Zhu Peng put down his hands in embarrassment, moved a few steps to the side, and then simply walked away, swearing again in his heart, "I will never be with Wang Hao again..."

The reporters surrounded Wang Hao.

Because they are all official media, they didn't rush to ask questions. A CCTV reporter asked first, "First of all, congratulations to Professor Wang Hao for winning the first prize in natural science. How do you feel at this moment?"

Wang Hao's face remained motionless, and he said four words lightly, "I'm very excited."

He was indeed very excited when the award was presented, but now his mood is much calmer.

Seeing that calm look, coupled with the excited words on their lips, the reporters felt very weird, and they also thought to themselves, 'Maybe it's because they got the news too early? '

A reporter also asked, "Can you tell me when you found out about the award?"

Wang Hao finally had an expression, and he said a little depressed, "If you ask this, I will have something to say. I don't understand why I won the award myself, and other people knew it earlier than me."

"Now the gossip is terrible. I went to the Science Foundation, and several people told me that I had won the award."

"When I came here in the morning, I wasn't sure that I won the first prize. Everyone else knew about it. I suggest that the official should keep this award a secret. At least ensure that the news channel is fair?"

"Or just announce it directly, why am I the only one who doesn't know?"

The surrounding reporters laughed, and they naturally understood what Wang Hao meant.

The science and technology awards were only announced on the spot, but because many people participated in the award selection, especially the top academicians, some news would definitely be revealed.

But the same is true internationally.

For some top academic awards, some winners are locked early. The relevant top scholars will know the winners, but the winners themselves will not know, because they will not be notified in advance.

Afterwards, another reporter asked, "Professor Wang Hao, you won the first prize in natural science with the "Mathematical Transformation Method for Finding Infinite Columns", which is a research on analysis methods related to number theory. So you think, is this the right one? Your best research?"

"Best research?"

Wang Hao thought about it carefully, then pursed his lips and said, "Probably not. I don't know which research is better, but the one that impressed me the most is the research on Mersenne prime numbers."

"Why?" the reporter asked with interest.

"Exploring in the unknown is very interesting." Wang Hao explained, "This research uses mathematical methods to analyze numbers that others can only discover by luck."

"This is critical. Every discovery of a Mersenne prime will give me a sense of accomplishment."

Wang Hao said very seriously, and he also gave an example, "This is like buying a lottery ticket. We assume that buying a lottery ticket is all about luck, without any human intervention. However, if you can use mathematical methods to analyze the lottery In the end, won’t you feel a sense of accomplishment if you bought the corresponding number and won the prize?”

A group of reporters next to him nodded.

Needless to say!

Just relying on analysis can win the lottery, and the sense of accomplishment and harvest is directly full.

Wang Hao added sarcastically, "It's a pity that GIMPS is poor, otherwise, I would have to let the servers in the computer lab run 24 hours a day."

"..."

Many reporters didn't quite understand the meaning, but the content of the complaints seemed a little unfriendly?

Pinch this part!

A reporter continued to ask, "Ten days ago, you published an argument on the NS equation on your blog, which attracted the attention of the international mathematics community and became the focus of the mathematics community. Is your current research consistent with ns? Equation related?"

Wang Hao nodded and said, "The research I just completed is the ns equation problem."

He said seriously, "Here, let me emphasize again that the NS equation solution set is smooth, at least under normal values."

"Buckmaster's research is very interesting. He proved that the output of the NS equation will be unstable when the solution set is allowed to be rough, but this does not negate the smoothness of the exact solution set of the NS equation."

"I have already proved this. If it is a conventional value, even if it is only an approximate solution, the output of the NS equation is bounded and convergent."

"In addition, I relied on the method of function theory and functional analysis to analyze the value of variables, and I can conclude..."

"Ula Ula~~"

A lot of professional terms came out of Wang Hao's mouth, which made the reporters beside him dizzy, and some reporters standing in the back row hurriedly left silently.

The reporter standing at the front pretended to be listening carefully, and then took a moment to say quickly, "Professor Wang Hao, that's it, I'm going to interview other people first."

A reporter even went to interview Zhu Peng in a pretentious manner.

Zhu Peng found that he was very happy to be interviewed by a reporter, so he heard the reporter ask, "Professor, what kind of research are you doing?"

...

Zhu Peng returned to the hotel with Wang Hao with a complicated face.

The awards ceremony that day was very tiring, they just rested in the hotel, and Zhu Peng went to the Science Foundation the next day to deal with matters related to the project.

Wang Hao went to Capital University.

Professor Wu Hui said that Capital University will conduct a seminar on applied mathematics, the theme of which is the application of NS equations.

When he arrived at the gate of Capital University, Wang Hao met Academician Wu Hui.

Wu Hui was with several professors. They came more than ten minutes early to wait for Wang Hao.

After arriving at Wang Hao, everyone walked in together.

Wu Hui and Wang Hao walked in the front and introduced, "This is a symposium on applied mathematics led by Academician Zhang Hongxin. It's not a formal meeting, it's just for everyone to study together."

"It's mainly because of Buckmaster's research some time ago."

"Many people began to worry about the unreliability of the NS equation. Academician Zhang Hongxin organized a seminar with the purpose of using theoretical analysis to give confidence in research in the applied field."

"This time, we will demonstrate the specific NS equation types and values ​​for thirteen major applications, and we will also conduct a series of calculations to try to cover the content of these thirteen major applications."

"At the very least, it must be proved that even if an approximate solution is obtained, the deviation is within a fixed range."

Wu Hui said and looked at Wang Hao, "This is your proof that the NS equation is bounded and convergent under rough values, but you only proved that the output is bounded and convergent, and you didn't determine the range of fluctuations. We need to demonstrate the range of fluctuations , to ensure that the general application will not go wrong."

"Although it is impossible to prove that the NS equation solution set is smooth, at least it must be guaranteed that there will be no problems in application."

Wang Hao listened patiently, hesitated for a long time, and then said, "Academician Wu, I wanted to tell you yesterday, let's say it now... I don't think this argument makes any sense."

"Why?" Wu Hui stood still and looked at Wang Hao full of doubts.

Others also came closer to look over.

Wang Haodao, "Because I have proved that the exact solution set of the applied value of the NS equation is smooth."

Wu Hui said, "I know your argument, but it only negates Buckmaster's research. The bounded convergence of the output of the NS equation with rough values ​​does not mean that the solution set of the original equation is smooth."

Others said, "Yeah, we're doing applied arguments, not just against Buckmaster, but his research is still worrisome."

"Although you proved that the approximate output of the NS equation is boundedly convergent, it does not determine how large the fluctuations are."

"The smoothness of the NS equation is a century-old problem, and it is better to demonstrate it in detail in application."

"When we do basic mathematics, the ultimate goal is to support applications, not just theory!"

"Professor Wang, don't underestimate this meeting, it's very important!"

Hearing the voices of people around him, Wang Hao didn't know what to say for a while. He had already clearly stated that he had proved the smoothness of the NS equation, so why should he argue against it?

He felt that he was almost convinced, but after thinking about it carefully, something seemed wrong.

never mind!

There are so many of you, you are right!

...

This seminar is in a small conference room.

Because it was just a seminar, the number of participants was only a few dozen people, but each of them can be said to be a top scholar in the field of partial differential equations.

Among them, there are only four academicians of the Academy of Sciences, and they are all between fifty-five and sixty-five years old.

Others have the title of professor of mathematics at least, most of them come from various top universities, and a few are from the Institute of Mathematics of the Academy of Sciences.

Wang Hao saw many familiar faces, but some of them could not be named after seeing them only once.

The seminar officially begins.

Because only mathematicians discuss mathematical problems together, there is no such complicated process. Academician Zhang Hongxin, the organizer of the meeting, directly explained the situation, "We are discussing related concerns about the application of NS equations in the recent period."

"We need to use theoretical mathematics to support applications. This seminar is different from the past. The relevant information will be made public. The main task is to perform calculations on various parts."

"We have already summarized the data problems of some applications, and will divide them into thirteen groups to calculate for various situations."

Next is grouping.

Grouping is based on individual wishes. People who are familiar with each other are definitely willing to be together, and some people are not assigned to groups, so they are treated as supplementary personnel, that is, whichever group needs manpower, they will go to whichever group.

Wang Hao was not assigned to a group. He was also a free agent. Several groups looked at Wang Hao and hoped that Wang Hao could join.

They all know that Wang Hao's mathematics level is absolutely top-notch, especially in terms of calculation, young mathematicians are always more efficient than old mathematicians.

After the groups were divided, Zhang Hongxin asked, "Does anyone have any questions?"

Everyone looks at each other.

Wang Hao hesitated for a moment, but still raised his hand.

Zhang Hongxin smiled and nodded at Wang Hao, "Professor Wang, what's your question?"

Wang Hao said seriously, "I thought about it, and I think I should say it again. Under the value range of conventional applications, the exact solution set of the NS equation is smooth."

Zhang Hongxin nodded suspiciously.

He didn't quite understand what Wang Hao meant. Of course they also believed that the NS equation was smooth, but there was no exact proof, so they could only demonstrate it for applications.

Wang Hao continued, "This is not a pure opinion, but I have already proved it and submitted a manuscript, which should be published soon."

He was very straightforward.

However, others never thought that he proved the smoothness of the solution set of the NS equation, and thought he was talking about his proof of Buckmaster's research, that is, the proof of "the rough value of the NS equation has bounded convergence".

Zhang Hongxin was silent for a while, as if pondering over his words, he said, "Professor Wang, we are conducting an application demonstration now, not to refute Buckmaster's research."

"yes!"

Another academician Shao Yuming said, "Professor Wang, your argument is your argument. Our argument is different. We are in the field of argument application."

"Although you think the NS equation is smooth, there is no 'thinking' in mathematics, and it is uncertain without proof."

After he finished speaking, he added, "With so many of us arguing together, it will be more professional and the scope of coverage will be larger."

He still didn’t say a word in his mind, ‘It’s just that you think that our argument is meaningless? Are you here for a seminar, or are you here to cause trouble? '

‘Even if you get the first prize in natural science, you can’t do this! '

Many people in the conference room had the same thoughts as Shao Yuming.

They felt that Wang Hao was making trouble, the seminar was about to start, and their argument was about to start.

What is this young man emphasizing?

he thinks……

He thinks that he thinks that we are going to conduct an application demonstration!

Both Zhang Hongxin and Shao Yuming felt that they had restrained their temper, and told Wang Hao in a good voice that if it were someone else, they would have been kicked out a long time ago.

Isn't this here to make trouble?

We are only doing application argument here, you say application argument is meaningless?

It's too much!

Wang Hao was refuted by two academicians, and felt very depressed when he felt the strange eyes of other people.

He kindly reminded him, and even said bluntly that he had proved it...

As a result, no one paid attention!

never mind!

Wang Hao shook his head and simply sat on the sidelines without formally participating in the work. He thought that someone would come looking for him, so he would do the calculations for him.

This argument makes no sense and is simply a waste of time.

It's already a shame that I didn't leave on the spot.

Maybe it was because of what Wang Hao said just now, or maybe it was because the application argument was not difficult, and no one came to ask Wang Hao for help.

The calculation work of the demonstration lasted for nearly two hours.

Most of the scholars are very active. When they feel tired, they take a break in the middle and continue to work. Each group sits together, discusses, calculates and records continuously.

There is a positive atmosphere in the conference room.

Wang Hao sat alone by the wall, seemingly isolated by everyone, but he was also very leisurely, with his legs crossed, drinking tea, and killing time while swiping his phone.

Others looked over occasionally, and couldn't help but twitch their mouths.

Perhaps this is the generation gap?

Scholars who were busy with calculations did not notice that a person at the door shouted Academician Shao Yuming away with a strange expression.

Shao Yuming went out for more than ten minutes, and when he came back, his expression became very weird. He looked at Wang Hao several times, and when he looked at Wang Hao, his face was extremely embarrassed.

He stood at the door for a long time, and seemed to have finally summoned up his courage, and shouted at everyone, "Everyone, stop!"

"Stop, listen to me!"

Everyone looked over.

Shao Yuming still looked at Wang Hao, cleared his throat, and asked softly, "Professor Wang, why don't you talk about it? Is that what you said in the meeting just now?"

"ah?"

It happened so suddenly that Wang Hao didn't react for a while.

"Forget it, let me tell you."

Shao Yuming pursed his lips hard, braced his face, and said, "That's right. I just got the news that Professor Wang Hao has a new research result, which is related to the NS equation. The result was published in "Mathematics New "Progress", the content is..."

"Proof of the smoothness of the exact solution set of NS equations for a range of values."

Everyone else was in a daze.

"Ahem..."

He felt very embarrassed when he said that, his old face even turned red, "That's it, that's why, that's it..."

"this……"

"Our argument can stop, or else..."

"This... It's not easy for everyone to get together, let's study together, the latest achievements of Professor Wang Hao..."
