The white professor was still a little unbelievable: "But Qin Ke is too young. I heard that he is less than twenty years old and is still a freshman? I know that there are many talented mathematicians among Xia people, such as the current mathematics department at the University of California, Los Angeles.
Professor Tao of the department is known as the 'genius among geniuses', but a genius like him had obtained a master's degree at the age of twenty, but he was unable to achieve such dazzling academic results until he was thirty."
Professor Usman shrugged his shoulders and smiled at Professor Kelvin Thomson next to him: "Professor Thomson, Professor McCann has doubts about Qin Ke's genius. I think you have more say than me. After all, listen
Say you were at the Tiger Hotel and witnessed Qin Ke solve two world-class propositions within half an hour."
Professor Kelvin Thomson is a professor in the Department of Mathematics at Princeton University. He is famous in the mathematics world for proving the Grish conjecture about the direction of the Diophantine equation.
Professor Thomson had already heard the previous conversation between the two, and he sighed:
"Professor McCann and Professor Usman's evaluations are not exaggerated. I think if Qin Ke is willing, he can probably get a doctorate in mathematics from Xia Guo University at any time. He is such a genius. To be honest.
, I was not surprised that he conquered the Polignac conjecture. This time I heard that he was going to participate in the selection of the Mathematics Breakthrough Award, and I almost didn’t think about it. But I was also very curious about the ‘Green Lemon Number Theory Super’ proposed by him.
Geometric Mapping Method', that's why I came here to attend the meeting."
Professor Thomson's words are a bit exaggerated. Being able to participate in such an academic seminar and report one's academic achievements in front of countless international senior leaders and peers is a rare honor and an experience that can be recorded on the resume. Naturally, I will not miss it.
.
Not only him, but Professor Lyons Bowie, a professor at the University of Cambridge in Eagle Country who proposed the "Weak Polignac Conjecture", also came.
After all, the number of places for the Mathematics Breakthrough Prize ranges from one to four. The key is whether the academic report can impress the judges.
As long as there is a glimmer of hope, who is willing to give up early?
If it doesn't work out, it's a consolation to win the New Vision Award. After all, it's a prestigious award.
…
The calendar flipped, Chao Mo Zhao was in Silicon Valley, a land where high-tech companies gather, and the time came to June 7, the day before the academic seminar officially started.
According to the itinerary, this day is mainly for the reporters to visit the Ames Research Center, which is a free participation project.
Scholars from all over the world gathered in twos and threes in the hall of the research center and whispered together. After everyone gathered, researchers led a tour.
Today's visit is only attended by scholars from this academic seminar, and those distinguished guests are not participating. Therefore, the number of scholars in the hall is not large at present, only about fifty or sixty people.
Some scholars are interested in the Ames Research Center, and the topic naturally revolves around today's visit. However, most mathematicians are more concerned about the report meeting and the grand prize starting tomorrow, and the topic is focused on the two Xia Guo who have not yet appeared.
Students come.
When Qin appeared holding Ning Qingyun's little hand, countless eyes focused on the two of them.
These two talented students are easy to identify. Among such young Asian boys and girls, the only ones who can wear participant ID badges to enter the Ames Research Center are Qin Ke and Ning Qingyun.
Ning Qingyun was somewhat unaccustomed to being looked up and down by so many scrutinizing eyes, so she subconsciously squeezed Qin Ke's big hand nervously.
Qin Ke smiled at her, then brought her to Professor Thomson, and said hello in English: "Professor Thomson, it's been half a year since the lecture at the University of Pennsylvania, and your style is even better than before. My guess about what you will hold tomorrow proves the theme.
The report is full of expectations.”
Professor Thomson's mentality when facing Qin Ke was a bit complicated, with some mild hostility and unwillingness, but more of it was heartfelt recognition and respect. After all, this young man's strength in number theory was indeed better than his.
The fourth-order transformation method of lime number theory also gave him great inspiration.
Seeing Qin Ke's sunny smile at this time, Professor Thomson couldn't help but smile back:
"Qin, I'm glad to see you again. We were discussing you just now. We are all looking forward to the academic report of you and your girlfriend Ning the day after tomorrow."
He also introduced mathematicians such as Professor McCann and Professor Usman to Qin Ke who were acquaintances nearby.
Qin Ke's memory is now very good. In addition, he and Ning Qingyun were familiar with the process of the report meeting last night. He knew the brief introductions of all the candidates and the contents of the reports. At this time, he shook hands with several mathematicians and exchanged greetings.
They could all accurately tell each other's identity and proud academic achievements after "admiring their names for a long time", which made several people feel that Qin Ke really valued them, rather than just formal politeness. They immediately felt good about him and soon became friends.
Chatting and laughing with Qin Ke.
Ning Qingyun is not very good at communication, but Qin Ke skillfully introduced her to the topic and introduced her to several scholars. Ning Qingyun's excellent English speaking skills and quick mathematical thinking ability also surprised and impressed everyone.
For a time, Qin Ke and Ning Qingyun became the focus of communication in the hall.
Of course, not all of the fifty or sixty candidates would be willing to approach Qin Ke and Qin Ke. Some big names in the fields of life sciences and basic physics were not interested in these two talented students in the mathematics circle at the beginning.
I had a cold. Others such as Jiang Quansheng and Professor Lyons Bowie of Cambridge University did not come to join me.
However, Qin Ke was very interested in scholars in the physics and life sciences circles and took the initiative to make friends. As the saying goes, don't hit the smiling person, not to mention these physicists and biologists have no competing interests with Qin Ke. Qin Ke is outstanding.
Thanks to his eloquence, he quickly became friends with the two of them.
During the visit, the scholars in the physics community also took the initiative to introduce the situation of the Ames Research Center to the two of them. The professional-level physics theory level that Qin Ke inadvertently demonstrated also surprised the scholars in the physics community.
.
No one expected that this mathematical genius would have such solid and profound knowledge of basic physics theory.
This chapter is not over yet, please click on the next page to continue reading! After more than half a day of visiting process, no one among the fifty or sixty scholars in the audience dared to look down on this young Xia State student couple. At the same time, both parties became familiar with each other. Qin Ke
The two also made real friends with several scholars in physics and life sciences, and exchanged email addresses.
The next day, the Scientific Breakthrough Award academic lecture officially began.
Qin Ke and Ning Qingyun sat in the audience and listened carefully to the academic lecture all day long.
This academic lecture will be held in three lecture halls at the same time, corresponding to the fields of life sciences, basic theoretical physics and mathematics. There are about five lectures arranged in each day. The time of some lectures overlaps and you can only choose one of them.
Listen.
Qin Ke and Ning Qingyun made their selections based on the meeting process. They selected five mathematics reports and one physics report on the first day.
After listening to the five mathematics reports on the first day, I naturally wanted to know others and myself, and learn from the experiences of others in giving reports for my own use.
As for the physics report, it was to relax my mind and increase my knowledge.
It has to be said that the level of these candidates who can be invited to give academic reports is quite high, and the entire speech process is excellent, such as the "Will Morey Conjecture and Geometric Flow" theme report given by a mathematics professor at the Ecole Normale Supérieure in Paris.
, which gave Qin Ke and Ning Qingyun a refreshing feeling, and naturally won applause from the entire audience.
Professor Usman's report "Constructing a High-Dimensional Space Regularity Structural Theory for Stochastic Partial Differential Equations" also attracted great attention and discussion, and received thunderous applause.
After returning to the hotel, Ning Qingyun said uneasily: "Qin Xiaoke, the professors who gave the report today are so amazing. I think the results they made are so outstanding that we can't compare to them."
Qin Ke couldn't help but feel happy when he saw that Ning Qingyun's confidence was obviously shaken.
"Do you think they are exaggerating too much, as if not awarding them the Fields Medal would be an apology for their huge contributions to the mathematics community?"
Ning Qingyun was amused by Qin Ke's mocking tone and couldn't help but roll her eyes at him: "It's not that exaggerated. I just think their academic achievements are very impressive, which makes me feel eye-opening."
Qin Ke curled his lips: "Actually, the actual content of their reports is just like that. For example, Professor Usman created a 'new theory of high-dimensional space - regularity structure theory'. It sounds very high-level, but it is purely because he is good at it."
Packaging, the essence of his report is to propose a general method for the determination of stochastic partial differential equations with singular noise under subcritical conditions. It is novel, bright, and in-depth, but it is far from the height he boasted."
Speaking of this, Qin Ke himself also laughed: "However, today's report meeting is indeed very fruitful. The two of us still have too little experience in giving reports at such high-end academic seminars. We did not expect to be able to package knowledge like this. This time
I’ve learned something.”
Qin Ke had participated in an academic seminar at Pudong University before, but there was no award selection that time - oh, except for the "Best Speaker" which was not an award - so the language of most speakers
The style is relatively pragmatic, concise and direct to the core, in order to show one's academic achievements in the shortest possible time.
But the style of this Science Breakthrough Award report meeting is completely different. Everyone is rushing to win the award, and they use every possible means to package their academic achievements. In addition to not cheating, appropriate exaggeration is simply not considered a crime.
Things, let alone the luxurious packaging of the names and meanings of his academic achievements, it is simply promising that he will have a new style.
——Oh, who is Mochizuki Shinichi? This elder is a professor of mathematics at Kyoto University. His academic achievements are famous for being "cool and amazing." For example, in a certain paper, he established a system called "
The new world of "interuniversal theory" defines many mysterious terms that are unheard of in the mathematical world, including the so-called "alien arithmetic holomorphic structure", which makes people confused, seems reasonable but makes no sense.
By the way, Mochizuki Shinichi is a student of Faltings. Faltings, which has always been known for its academic rigor, actually has a student with such a sudden change in painting style. Isn’t it dumbfounding?
Qin Ke suddenly felt that the names of the mathematical methods he had chosen, whether it was "Ling Lemon Theory Fourth-order Transformation Method" or "Ling Lemon Theory Number Hypergeometric Mapping Method", were simply nothing compared to the various exaggerated naming methods used by professors today.
It's so weak, look at this, "new theory of high-dimensional space", tsk tsk.
Ning Qingyun frowned slightly: "But I can't imitate their style. You are so good at talking, so you can probably do it."
