Scholar’s Advanced Technological System

Two o'clock.

Lu Zhou, dressed in a suit and leather suit, walked up to the podium, and the lecture hall, which was a bit noisy because of his ears, quieted down.

No one was disciplined, everyone was tacit, and they stared at the man on the podium, doubting, expecting, or expressionless.

If you change people, let alone talk about math problems, being stared at by so many big guys, I'm afraid the legs are soft.

But Lu Zhou, who was standing on the podium, looked calmly, without being afraid of the stage because of the pressure passed by the pair of eyes.

The mental preparations that should be done are already prepared while off the stage.

Moreover, this is not the first time he has faced such an occasion.

"Thank you all for coming to Princeton from all over the world and listening to me standing here to report on the research results of Goldbach's conjecture."

In accordance with usual practice, I thank the scholars who were invited to attend the report, and Lu Zhou began to explain the process of the report.

"The content of my speech will be divided into two parts, one is about the group construction method I used to prove Goldbach's conjecture, and the other is about the proof of Goldbach's conjecture."

"I believe that everyone has read my dissertation before coming here. For the lengthy and tedious steps in the dissertation, I will abbreviate them in the PPT. As for my explanation, I will focus on the key steps as well as the thoughts and ideas. aspect."

"In addition, I will spend as much time as possible in the questioning session."

Preparing the reporter's dissertation before the academic conference is a practice in academia is also a necessary etiquette. If it comes to the questioning section, standing up and asking the questions are all written on the dissertation, or it is irrelevant, it will be considered a very rude and levelless thing.

For all Daniels here, such a problem naturally will not arise.

Similarly, those parts that have been clearly written in the dissertation do not need to be included in the PPT again. After all, everyone's time is precious, but not a special trip to Princeton to watch slides.

After the opening remarks, Lu Zhou went directly to the topic.

"The so-called group construction method is the abbreviation of" group theory's overall structure research method ". Its core idea is to use the concept of cyclic groups to study the problem of infinity as a whole. Based on the integer modular p multiplication group, it is always a cyclic group This theorem, we can get ... "

While explaining, Lu Zhou's laser pointer walked along the white curtain.

[... with a finite group G and | G | = p1α1p2α2 ··· piαi, where pi is a prime number and αi is a positive integer. Let p∈π (G), define deg (p) = | {q∈π (G) | p ~ q) |

Let deg (p) be the number of vertices p. Redefine C (G) = ……】

Compared to the proof of Goldbach's conjecture in the second half, the theory of group construction is more critical, because only after understanding this part, people sitting in the lecture hall listening to him can understand what he did What exactly is work.

Therefore, the content of this part, Lu Zhou's explanation is extremely detailed, as far as possible to make every point clear.

The people sitting down the stage, whether invited scholars or unsolicited students, listened very carefully.

Especially James Maynard, sitting in the middle of the meeting with his arms folded, listened very carefully.

As the so-called counterpart is the enemy, he is also a leader in the field of analytical mathematics among the new generation of mathematicians in Britain. As one of the popular candidates for the Philippine Awards, he originally intended to use the twin prime problem to win an 18-year Fields Prize, but he did not want to be finally landed by Lu Zhou, and he was angry with his manuscript.

It can be said that he made a special trip here from the United Kingdom to provoke faults to competitors.

But that's what it says ...

The more he looked down, the more intriguing his expression was.

The Chinese scholar's logic is so rigorous that he is not only not aware of any problems, he can't help but applaud ...

Sitting next to him was his doctoral student, also an English guy named Evan.

Looking at the lines of text flashing on the curtain, the British guy gradually started to keep up with the rhythm.

Finally he couldn't help but asked in a low voice.

"Professor, what is his group formation method talking about?"

Maynard stared meticulously at the screened PPT, silent.

He can answer this question, but he cannot answer it.

For one thing, he didn't want to miss any details because of distractions. For another, he was afraid that when he spoke, he couldn't help praising this clever method in his words ... and the day before yesterday, he also spoke on his personal blog, These 50 pages of papers are all waste paper, which will be revealed on the spot at a lecture in Princeton.

However, even if he is unwilling to admit it, he still has to admit that there may be more than one Filipino prize in the gap between his strength and his opponent ...

Yes or no, mathematics is such a reality.

On the other side, in the back row of the lecture hall, the two old men sat in the corner of the conference hall in a low-key manner, watching the lecture and whispering the old in a chatty tone.

"I didn't expect that I had only been away for a few years, and Princeton Advanced Institute had another talent." Looking at the young people on the stage, Andrew Wiles nodded approvingly, "Yes, I have half the style of that year. "

After returning to his alma mater, Oxford University, to teach in 2011, Andrew Wiles rarely returned to Princeton Advanced Institute. The post of Princeton University's Mathematics Department also gave way to another genius, Charles Feverman.

The year in his mouth was the most important mathematical lecture of the late 20th century held by the Newton Institute 13 years ago. More than two hundred mathematicians listened to the speech, although only a quarter of them at the time could fully understand the Greek letters and calculations on the blackboard.

As for the remaining three-quarters, they traveled to Britain thousands of miles just to witness history.

Same now.

Although Goldbach's conjecture is more like a test of intelligence than the widely used Fermat's Theorem, this intelligence test can be put into the eighth question of twenty-three by Hilbert. Its position in number theory and the entire field of mathematics.

Solving it may not change the world like the millennium problem, nor will it change mathematics like Fermat's Last Theorem, but the tools created in solving this problem are invaluable to the entire mathematical community.

There is no doubt that everyone sitting here ~ www.readwn.com ~ is witnessing history.

"Oh," Deligne opened a smile and ruthlessly retorted. "I don't know who it was, and it looks like a doomsday expression all day. I plan to apologize to the New York Times and plan to open it. Champagne goes back. "

With a slight cough, Wiles took the black history lightly: "Only when a person is facing despair, can the burst of inspiration be promoted. I just push myself into a dead end, and then die forever ... As a result, I did it. "

Deligne unceremoniously exclaimed, "Isn't your last explanation a performance art?"

"Okay, my dear friend, let's change the subject," Wiles said calmly, and turned to the content on the curtain. "Goldbach guessed that I didn't know very well. From your point of view, Look, is his paper proof? "

Deligne: "You should ask Ivanets and Faltins on this question. They are experts in analytic number theory, and I am only involved in the problem of prime numbers. Of course, after reading his thesis , My point of view is more optimistic. "

If he is not optimistic, he will not arrange this briefing for Lu Zhou, but propose to amend it.

Wiles looked surprised: "Faltings is here too?"

"It's not that he's here, too," said Deligne, after a pause, "but no one wants to miss--"

Just then, a whisper of exclamation sounded in the venue.

That was a wonder.

It also contains praise.

Deligne and Wiles stopped communicating and looked up at the stage.

After a while, Wiles said with a smile: "It seems our fears are superfluous."

Looking at the formula on the curtain, Deligne's mouth finally stretched a smile of relief.

"I never worried."
