Chapter 110: Witness the Miracle(1/2)
On the stage, Xu Chuan stood there and stopped.
The narrating voice stopped, and the chalk in his hand stayed in front of the blackboard.
Many mathematics professors and mathematics students in the audience were also stunned.
Is your idea stuck? Or is there something wrong with your calculations?
But everyone can understand that, after all, no one can guarantee that they will talk without any pause during the speech.
Especially for this kind of young scholar who takes the stage to give a speech for the first time, it is not only a test of mathematical ability, but also a huge psychological endurance.
Not everyone is a great social worker, and not everyone can be non-nervous when they go on stage to give a speech for the first time.
Especially since there are also mathematics masters such as Professor Deligne, Professor Fehrman, and Professor Terence Teru sitting in the audience.
And more importantly, this question was raised by Professor Feilman, a Fields Medal winner. In this case, the pressure is even greater.
So everyone was waiting quietly in the auditorium, waiting for this young scholar to continue explaining.
The exceptions are top mathematicians who can understand the mathematical formulas on the blackboard.
A few people, such as Terence Tao, Deligne, Feuerman, Zhang Wei and others, felt a little strange about Xu Chuan's stuckness.
In particular, Academician Zhang Weiping was not only strange and curious, but also a little anxious.
Although his mathematical ability is not as good as that of top experts such as Deligne, Fehrman, and Terence Tao, he has carefully studied and read the paper on the weakened form proof of the Weyl-berry conjecture.
Therefore, his understanding in this area is not weak, and after Xu Chuan proposed to use the Dirichlet domain to limit the fractal dimension and the spectrum of fractal measures of Ω, he immediately understood and accepted this new concept.
In his opinion, the calculations on the blackboard were clearly in the process of being completed, and only the last two or three steps were left. Even his student Miao Pingbo could complete it, but this boy was stunned.
There's nothing wrong with the idea, and there's nothing wrong with the calculations on the blackboard. What's going on?
One minute.
Two minutes.
five minutes.
Time passed little by little, and Xu Chuan still stood there, without any movement in his steps. Only his posture changed slightly, and his raised right hand was lowered.
After waiting for some time, there was already some commotion in the auditorium. Some people began to discuss with their friends and teachers around them what was going on.
Some people feel that their ideas are stuck, while others feel that there is something wrong with the calculation steps.
What's more, some people think that it is disrespectful to Professor Fehrman to put an idea that has not been verified into a report meeting and describe the proof on the spot to answer Professor Fehrman's question.
This is a super guy who has won the Fields Medal.
Professor Fellman himself, on the other hand, did not have any such thoughts.
On the contrary, he saw from the calculations on the blackboard that he learned some new knowledge, such as group fields, group theory, field theory, extended fields, and function transformations. These things are the purest and most fascinating for a mathematician.
thing.
Not to mention that the young man on the stage did not fail. Even if he failed, he did not have any opinions or displeasure.
Not only did he not, he would find the young man immediately after the report meeting to enlighten and encourage him.
Next to him, Professor Deligne also held the same view.
This is a genius in mathematics who can solve world-class problems at the age of seventeen. If nothing else, he can go a long way in mathematics.
The only difference was that Professor Terence Tao, who had been sitting on the other side, seemed to have a premonition of something. He stared closely at the calculations on the blackboard. The black hole hidden under the black glasses flashed a glimmer of light. He seemed to have a premonition.
Found something, but not sure.
.......
Standing on the stage in front of the blackboard, Xu Chuan stared blankly at the calculation in front of him for fifteen minutes.
Suddenly, he suddenly came to his senses. He did not continue to use the Dirichlet domain to limit the fractal dimension of Ω and the spectrum of fractal measures. He also did not care about the opinions of the audience and just used his clothes to calculate the spectrum.
Sleeve erased all the calculations on the blackboard.
Immediately, a piece of white chalk fell on the blackboard again, and lines of calculations continued to appear like flowing water.
Staring at the calculations in black and white, Professor Terence Tao, who had been sitting there, suddenly shrank his dark eyes.
His previous hunch came true!
The young man on the stage was just thinking about the comprehensive Weyl-berry conjecture.
Now, he is challenging this world-class conjecture.
On the other side, Professor Deligne and Professor Fellman, who had been paying attention, seemed to have noticed something after following the chalk in Xu Chuan's hand falling on the calculation on the blackboard.
The two of them had exactly the same reaction, staring intently at the proof on the blackboard. Professor Terence Tao, on the other hand, after confirming his thoughts, relaxed, leaned back, and fell back on the chair, with a confused look on his face.
Looking at the young man on the stage with a smile.
It seems very interesting to challenge a complete world-class mathematical conjecture at a lecture at Princeton.
Should he try doing this next time?
But after thinking about it, he gave up the idea.
If it succeeds, it will undoubtedly be a good story and will become a story that will be circulated forever in the mathematics community and even academia.
But if it fails, it will probably become a joke in the mathematics community.
It's better to be young and have courage.
This kind of courage and aggressiveness can only be achieved by a young man in his twenties.
If this kind of thing is given to him, even if he is confident, he may not be able to do it.
After all, at his age, already in his forties, he has a lot to consider.
He could already imagine that if this young man failed this time, reporters from outside news media would not know how they would report this matter.
A seventeen-year-old 'genius boy' or 'natural idiot' from China tried to prove world-class mathematical problems at a mathematics exchange meeting, and finally fled back to his country with his tail between his legs?
This chapter is not finished yet, please click on the next page to continue reading the exciting content! For foreign media, this is definitely a good opportunity to attack the reputation of the red country opposite and deny the other party's achievements in mathematics.
They won't miss it.
But for the world of mathematics or academia, courage, aggressiveness and innovation are essential. This is why many famous achievements in mathematics and academia appear at a young age.
For example, when Einstein was 26 years old, he wrote four epoch-making physics papers on the 'Photoelectric Effect', 'Brownian Motion', 'Special Relativity', and 'The Relationship between Mass and Energy'.
In one year, four epoch-making physics results were achieved, which is simply incredible.
Therefore, Tao Zhexuan felt a sense of expectation for this young man on the stage.
Although the Weyl-berry conjecture is not famous, its difficulty is not low.
According to the division of mathematics, its difficulty is the same as that of Model's conjecture derived from Poincare conjecture, weak Goldbach's conjecture derived from Goldbach's conjecture and twin prime conjecture, Hilbert's 20
Some of the questions in the three questions are similar.
It is almost at the bottom of level t2 and at the top of level t3.
If such a mathematical conjecture were solved by the young man on the stage today, then his achievements in the new generation would probably be only as good as Schultz who constructed the 'ps progressive-geometric theory'
The professor is a little inferior.
You must know that Professor Schultz is hailed by the mathematics community as the successor of the Pope of Mathematics. He is not yet 29 years old, but he has already won many mathematics awards.
Even for the highest honor in mathematics, the Fields Medal, he only needs to wait another two years.
A professor of mathematics at the University of Bonn once commented: "Schulz found a most concise and precise way to integrate previous work in this field. This elegant and powerful theoretical framework can surpass almost all known results, and he
The breakthrough of the "Langlands Program" using this set of results is even more amazing."
The only slight regret, or slightly "embarrassing" situation, is that so far Schulz has not really solved a big problem in mathematics or proved a big theorem.
And his predecessors, Deligne or Faltings, when they were about the same age as him, had already proved such big problems as Wei Yin's conjecture and Model's conjecture respectively.
Now, such a talent may be born again, and that is the young man standing on the stage.
The premise is that he can solve the Weyl-berry conjecture.
If it succeeds, we can definitely expect the Fields Medal in two years' time.
A mathematical conjecture at the t2-t3 level, its importance is beyond doubt.
But correspondingly, the young man in front of him also has a slight flaw, that is, his current ability in the field of mathematics does not seem to be that broad.
After parting ways with Xu Chuan the day before yesterday, Tao Zhexuan took a look at the achievements of the young man in front of him.
Imo ipho's gold medal results are brilliant, but they are only for high school students.
After that, the only results he could achieve were the weak weyl-berry conjectures derived from the weyl-berry conjecture.
But these two conjectures belong to the same field of problems.
Of course, this does not mean that he is not capable enough.
In fact, the mathematical ability of the young man in front of him has surpassed more than 90% of mathematicians.
If he can prove Weyl-Berry's conjecture today, then this proportion will directly increase to more than 99.99%.
But no matter what, his age is there.
To be continued...
