Chapter 535: A Hard Battle(1/2)

"Hello everyone, this is the Paris Convention Center, France."

"What will be held here today is the last day of the 2030 International Congress of Mathematicians, and it can also be called the most important meeting before the closing meeting."

"That is, an academic report on the proof of the Riemann Hypothesis."

"The Riemann Hypothesis is one of the most famous problems in mathematics, and it is also one of the most important and urgent problems in mathematics."

"It was proposed by the famous mathematician Bernhard Riemann in 1859. Its purpose is to analyze one of the most fundamental problems in mathematics, that is, the distribution law of prime numbers. Once solved, it will also be able to provide countless solutions

Mathematicians can provide more directions for progress, which will play an extremely important role in the development of mathematics."

"To this day, there are thousands of propositions that can be established based on the correct assumption of the Riemann Hypothesis. Once the Riemann Hypothesis can be confirmed in absolutely rigorous proofs, then these thousands of propositions will become mathematical

theorem."

"Therefore, whether the Riemann Hypothesis can be proven will attract the attention of all mathematicians, mathematics practitioners and enthusiasts around the world."

"Three months ago, my country's chief national scientist and famous mathematician, Mr. Lin Xiao, publicly published a paper on the proof of the Riemann Hypothesis. After several months of research and analysis by the mathematical community, today, Lin Xiao Mr. Xiao will explain it in today's report and accept the test of the mathematical community."

"This will also be a historic report."

"..."

At the back of the conference hall, a reporter from China was facing the camera in front of him and explaining.

The reporter's face was also filled with pride. After all, the protagonist of this report was a compatriot with him.

When the other surrounding media saw this scene, they couldn't help showing envious expressions on their faces.

Why can people have such powerful scientists?

Of course, what happened later did not attract everyone's attention. Most of the people present were mathematicians.

As for mathematicians, of course they are more concerned about the report itself.

In the end, can Lin Xiao make this report achieve perfect results?

A corner of the auditorium.

An old mathematician came from the door and went to his seat.

When they saw this old mathematician, everyone present quickly recognized him.

"Oh! It's Gould Faltings!"

Ordinary mathematicians or ordinary mathematics enthusiasts who came here couldn't help but sigh with emotion.

It turned out to be this old man.

Of course, surprise means surprise that one can actually see this elder at the scene, but it is completely expected that this elder will appear here.

After all, Faltings was not the only boss at the scene.

After Faltings came to his seat, an acquaintance next to him said to him with a smile: "You are finally here. Why haven't you been seen in the past few days?"

Faltings glanced at the person next to him, it was Andrew Wiles.

After taking a look, he withdrew his gaze, then sat down, read Lin Xiao's paper again, and said at the same time: "I don't have that much energy to read those papers that are not interesting or breakthrough enough."

report, it is better to focus all your energy on this most important one."

"Okay." Andrew Wiles shook his head, "You are still you, but according to what you said, you have already approved Lin's paper? Come to think of it, you have read it all in the past few months.

Bar?"

"I agree with his method, but I still don't agree with his conclusion." Faltings said: "I can say that I have studied the Riemann Hypothesis for half a lifetime, and Lin passed the problem of large prime number gaps and Lindelof

I very much agree with the combination of conjectures and then building the most critical bridge in the middle."

"This idea is obviously more sophisticated than those previously used by the mathematical community, and it almost doesn't look like it was thought up by the human brain."

"Although the method is sophisticated enough, the middle part is a bit rough. It's like the teeth of two gears in a precision instrument that cannot mesh perfectly, eventually causing the instrument to fail to operate normally.

.”

Hearing Faltings' words, Wiles just smiled and said, "Perhaps when you ask Lin Xiao this question later, he will transform into the most powerful mechanical master and tell you that you are the one who uses this

The mechanical approach went wrong.”

Faltings shook his head expressionlessly, "Maybe, but sometimes, I believe more that I am right."

Wiles smiled, then leaned back on the back of the seat, and then told Faltings, "Then just wait, I still support Lin Xiao."

"I have no problem with his proof."

Faltins smiled and said, "Maybe if I tell you the problem I discovered, you will understand what I mean."

"Forget it, I don't want to watch this report with a questioning attitude now. Now I just want to treat this report as a pleasure, and then take a look at how Lin Xiao made it happen in the end.

You guys are all convinced."

Wiles waved his hands, then held his head with both hands and leaned back on the chair, with a look of enjoyment on his face.

"I'm already seventy-seven years old, and you're one year younger than me, so you might as well listen to me. Sometimes, it's better to let yourself relax."

Faltings shook his head, "You are not me, and I am not you. I have spent half my life studying problems like the Riemann Hypothesis. I will only keep thinking about the proof of this problem forever."

"Well, it seems that I gave up my pursuit early."

Andrew Wiles shook his head and said no more.

Faltins also said no more.

It is not surprising for mathematicians like them to have their own ideas in their later years.

After all, the most important achievements in a scientist's life are often made when they are young, and then in middle age and old age they basically patch up the achievements made in their youth.

Of course, there are inevitably some scientists who still want to make some important achievements in their later years to achieve their own self-breakthroughs.

But obviously, this is often difficult, because the physical condition declines in old age, and it is already difficult to achieve any breakthroughs.

Of course, there are many people like Faltings who refuse to accept old age.

After all, as he said, he spent half his life studying problems such as the Riemann Hypothesis.

Just like there was once a young Chinese-American who was studying with him at Princeton University, and he was also working at Princeton University at the time.

Then one day the young man came to him and asked for a project, and he replied: I have done all the easy problems, and the rest are very difficult, such as the Riemann Hypothesis.

Therefore, mathematicians like him obviously always pay attention to issues such as the Riemann Hypothesis.

As for the solution to the Riemann Hypothesis, he naturally attaches equal importance to it.

Of course, there were not a few mathematicians present who had the same idea as him.

Come to think of it, for such mathematicians, if their pursuit of truth is ultimately blocked not by their own brains, but by their own age, they will probably feel unconvinced.

In this way, as time passed, the hour hand finally pointed to the number "9".

The host came on stage and was responsible for controlling the situation, and this host was personally served by President De Doron of the International Mathematical Union.

"Okay, everyone must have been waiting for a long time."

"Will the mystery hidden in the Riemann Hypothesis come to an end in this lecture, or will the legacy left by Mr. Riemann continue to be passed on, waiting for someone to inherit it one day in the future?"

I’ll give you an answer in an hour.”

"Then let's invite our genius mathematician, Lin Xiao!"

"Let him answer this, the question of the century in mathematics!"

The applause erupted instantly, and everyone present welcomed the protagonist’s appearance with their own applause.

And amid a steady sound of footsteps, Lin Xiao's figure finally appeared at the front desk from the backstage.

This is a very huge conference hall, which can accommodate thousands of people. Although it is not as grand as the ten thousand people auditorium in the Great Hall of the People, it still has a sense of solemnity.

And this is a unique sense of historical solemnity that belongs to a discipline that has been passed down from ancient times to today.

Lin Xiao's eyes drifted to an unknown distance. It was not until the applause gradually ended that his eyes focused on the present moment again, and then he bowed slightly.

If the earth is about to perish, let this time of truth shine as the last greatness of mankind.

Of course, if the earth does not perish, then he will let the light of truth envelope the earth until his death.

"Today, I will officially start my explanation of the paper that proved the Riemann Hypothesis three months ago."

"I also hope that everyone can gain something."

Lin Xiao said to the people present with a smile.

Then he turned around and opened the first page of the multimedia PPT.

What is shown above is exactly a formula.

【ζ(1/2+it)/(t^e)=O(√plnp)】

"Then, we must first start with the Lindelof conjecture and the problem of large prime number gaps, and gradually expand our problems..."

As Lin Xiao's explanation began, everyone present, who could keep up, tried their best to understand and did not dare to be distracted at all.

Because once you get distracted at such a top academic conference, when you come back to your senses, you will probably see that Lin Xiao has already talked about more than ten pages of the paper.

It's like taking a math class.
To be continued...
