Chapter 211 Excited? Of course not! Work report, Wang Hao: I
Use it to explain electromagnetic force!
The atmosphere in the office of the Government Affairs Building suddenly became a little complicated.
After Wang Hao finished his acceptance speech, the others looked at each other, not knowing what to say.
applaud?
What is there to applaud for such a fake acceptance speech?
Excited?
Even the winners are not excited, so who should they be excited for?
opposite.
At the opening ceremony of the International Congress of Mathematicians, the atmosphere was even more complicated than in the office of the Government Affairs Building.
Claudio Prochesi was sitting in the front row. When he saw Wang Hao's expression on the screen and his flat tone, he couldn't help but twitch his lips. He regretted the live communication.
This idea is indeed a good one, but Wang Hao's acceptance speech was so fake that it could be seen at a glance.
His eyes exuded a complete lack of care, which was written directly on his face, which also made the atmosphere at the scene become a bit depressing.
The mathematicians on site were in much more complicated moods than the people in the Government Affairs Building.
They just feel very hurt.
have a look!
Fields!
This award represents the highest achievement in the field of mathematics. It is impossible for most of them to win the award, but the winners framed on the screen obviously don't care at all.
Claudio Prochesi also had the same complicated mood, but as one of the leaders of the Executive Committee of the International Mathematical Society, he did not have time to experience the complicated mood. He noticed Wang Hao's action of looking aside and hurried back to the stage.
Take action.
The signal was quickly cut off.
At this time, the host had already reacted. Faced with a scene that was so calm that there was no applause at all, he quickly cheered up the atmosphere and shouted, "Congratulations to Dr. Wang Hao for winning Fields, so let's move on to the next step."
"Gauss Prize!"
He shouted with all his strength, and then breathed out softly.
This period is finally over!
…
For many domestic media, after Wang Hao received the Fields Medal, the Mathematicians Conference was effectively over.
The main reason why they pay attention to the International Congress of Mathematicians is because Wang Hao will win the Fields. After it was confirmed that Wang Hao won the award, there were many reports in the public opinion.
This is something quite remarkable.
Wang Hao became the first domestic scholar to win a Fields award, and also became the youngest Fields winner in history. He set two records alone.
A large number of reports were followed by a lot of discussion, but the focus of the discussion was not the award, but Wang Hao's indifference. "I have known for a long time that Professor Wang Hao won the award, but he didn't seem excited."
"Maybe it's because I wasn't there?"
"That acceptance speech was so fake. I laughed out loud when I heard it. He had Fields' medal hanging around his neck, but he actually said he just learned about the award?"
"Could it be that Fields' staff passed through the magic circle and arrived in Xihai City instantly to award him the award?"
"This is too funny!"
"He said he was very excited, but I didn't notice it at all. It was probably just a show-off."
This is a feeling shared by everyone.
At the same time, many media reporters also came to Xihai University for interviews.
Most media interviews are declined, but exclusive interviews with reporters from CCTV are still accepted because the relevant interviews will appear on prime-time TV news reports.
Wang Hao also took time out to be interviewed. As a figure who has received positive publicity, he also cares about his image.
The CCTV reporter's interview was very professional and came directly from a column team.
A sweet-looking female reporter sat face to face with Wang Hao, as if making small talk, "Professor Wang, you won the Fields Award for your research in the fields of number theory and partial differential equations. Both fields cover a wide range of fields."
It’s very big, and you have made many achievements in both fields, so can you tell me what you think your best research is?”
"NS equation." Wang Hao said the answer without hesitation.
"Why? In the field of number theory, even after completing the proof of Goldbach's conjecture, is it not as good as the NS equation?"
"certainly."
Wang Hao explained, "Goldbach's conjecture is just a mathematical problem and has no practical significance. The NS equation is of great significance in application. It is more than one mathematical problem and is related to many fields."
Of course he thinks that the best research is the NS equation, because the research on the NS equation is not one result, to be precise, there are five results.
In the end, two of the results were used to solve the problem, and one result of finding an approximate solution was published in the top issue. The other two results with the highest application value were filed and kept confidential.
These cannot be said to the outside world.
The reporter continued to ask, "How do you feel about winning the Fields Medal?"
"Very excited." Wang Hao said.
The reporter pursed his lips, suddenly winked playfully, and said with a smile, "Professor Wang, can you ask a question that may be difficult to answer?"
"go ahead?"
Wang Hao felt that apart from confidential research, there was nothing to say, and it was impossible for reporters to ask about confidential research.
The reporter asked, "Now you can look at the public opinion on the Internet. Many people think that when you gave your acceptance speech, you were not excited or nervous. It can be said that you were very calm. It made people feel as if you couldn't wait to finish your speech and leave.
.”
"Excuse me, was this how you felt at that time?"
"Uh~~"
Wang Hao did not expect that the reporter would ask such a straightforward question. He was too involved in research and did not pay special attention to the award ceremony.
He thought for a while, shook his head and said, "To be honest, I'm really not very excited. I feel very bland. Maybe it's because I knew it very early?"
The reporter nodded in confusion and asked, "That is the Fields Medal, the highest award in mathematics. We don't quite understand your calmness. Can you explain it?"
Wang Hao was silent for a moment after hearing this. He thought for a while and asked, "Do you know Einstein?"
"certainly."
While the reporter nodded affirmatively, he felt as if his intelligence was being despised. How could he not know about Einstein when he was a top student in journalism?
Wang Hao continued to ask, "Did you know that Einstein won the Nobel Prize in Physics?"
"I know..." the reporter hesitated for a moment and continued to nod.
"Can you tell me what research he won the Nobel Prize in Physics for?"
"..."
This time the reporter couldn't tell.
She thought about it carefully and felt that it was reasonable for her to be despised for her IQ.
Einstein is one of the most famous physicists in human history. Why don’t you even know why he won the Nobel Prize in Physics?
Wang Haodao, "It's not surprising that you don't know, because many, many people don't know. Let me popularize science here. Einstein won the Nobel Prize in Physics for his research on the photon hypothesis. He used the photon hypothesis to successfully explain the photoelectricity
effect."
"Of course, that's not important."
"Einstein has many achievements, including the theory of relativity and the mass-energy equation. Every one of his research can be said to be of great significance to the development of human science and technology and human understanding of the universe."
"But if you think about it carefully, if Einstein was still alive and the Nobel Committee decided to award him a second Nobel Prize in Physics, do you think he would be very excited?"
"this……"
The reporter thought about it carefully and found that there was really nothing to be excited about. It had already reached that level. Do you still care about a Nobel Prize in Physics?
She looked at Wang Hao again and suddenly understood.
Wang Hao's several achievements are enough to win Fields, and it is natural for him to win Fields.
Even if he doesn't win the Fields Award, no one can deny his achievements. He doesn't need an international award to affirm his research.
Wang Hao continued, "I'm not comparing myself to Einstein, but I'm just explaining why I feel calm, because even if I don't win the award, my research is there and I don't need the award to confirm it."
"Sometimes, I get very excited."
"For example, if I go to participate in a marathon, even if it is a city marathon or a university marathon, if I can win the championship, I will be very excited."
"That kind of award is the recognition for me."
The reporter was silent for a moment and asked curiously, "Will you run a marathon?"
"……Maybe."
Wang Hao pursed his lips hard.
…
Fields' award is over, but the International Congress of Mathematicians is not.
Wang Hao had promised to give a report in advance, but he didn't know what report to make because he was too busy with work and had not made any preparations. In addition, he had no new research results recently.
If it were the original results report, it would be meaningless to him.
He communicated with Claudio Procesi, who found it a bit incomprehensible. Wang Hao had so many great achievements, and it would be great to give a report with just a few details.
Prochesi said, "You can choose partial differential equations or number theory, both fields are acceptable, and you can even give a work report. I believe many people are interested in what you are studying."
The last sentence reminded Wang Hao.
Because the report is made through a video link, many people will definitely watch it, and a lot of inspiration may be gained.
He couldn't wait to think about it.
That day he explained the content of the report he was going to make, "Research on New Geometry."
New geometry?
Prochesi was a little surprised when he saw the title of the report, but because Wang Hao did not submit specific content, he did not know what the new geometry was about.
Wang Hao has been doing research on new geometry with Lin Bohan.
The new geometry is aimed at the microscopic morphology of the atomic structure of single-dielectric metal conductors, and uses geometric means to solve microscopic morphological problems.
This research is the core of "superconducting annihilation topology", or can be understood as the "first step" in solving the problem.
For metallic conductors, the essence of current is the movement of electrons, and the essence of temperature is the vibration of atoms, but the reality is much more complicated.
Even if it is a single-dielectric metal conductor, when it is energized, there are more than just electrons and atoms inside, and the microscopic movements are very complicated.
Wang Hao's latest research believes that a microscopic morphology will be formed inside the metal in a conductive state.
This microscopic morphology is directly related to the generation of electromagnetic force. At the same time, there is a 'force field' inside that resists the annihilation force. When the temperature drops to a certain level, it means that the tremor of the atoms drops to a certain level, and the microscopic morphology can no longer be maintained.
, will be squeezed and broken by the annihilation force, thus forming a special superconducting state and stimulating the generation of AC gravity field.
The exchange of gravity fields is just a manifestation of the fragmentation of microscopic forms.
But regardless of the specific principles, they are now using geometric methods to study microscopic morphology.
A single-dielectric metal conductor has only one kind of atom inside, so the microscopic shape formed is naturally the simplest.
soon.
When the time came the next morning, Wang Hao's report was scheduled for the second session in the morning.
This time period is the best.
After the "warm-up" of the first session, the scholars in the lecture hall have already entered the state, and there will be many people who listen carefully to the second session.
Others also knew that Wang Hao was going to give a report, and the second lecture hall was already packed with people.
Now Wang Hao's appeal is too great.
He is the number one mathematician in the world because he has top achievements in the fields of number theory and partial differential equations. In addition, he is only 26 years old and has not yet reached the peak period of recognized scientific research (30 to 40 years old).
), there may be many more results in the future.
When they learned that Wang Hao was going to give a work report, many people immediately became more interested. They all wanted to know what kind of research Wang Hao was doing.
This time I was still in the office of the Government Affairs Building, but the background was changed to a whiteboard.
Because it is a video connection, it is difficult for the mathematicians in the lecture hall to see what is written on it. Fortunately, Wang Hao is not doing a research report, he is just doing a work report, but occasionally he needs the help of the whiteboard.
.
Wang Hao appeared in front of the camera and smiled towards the camera.
At this time, it was obvious that his mental state was completely different from when he received the award yesterday, and his eyes even revealed expectation and excitement.
He said, "Thank you Mr. Prochesi for the invitation. I will give a brief work report. It will only last twenty minutes and will not take you too long."
The conference hall was quiet.
Everyone looked at Wang Hao in the screen shot, wondering what kind of report he was going to make.
Is it a partial differential equation?
Or number theory?
At the same time, many scholars who have not participated in the International Congress of Mathematicians are also following Wang Hao's report through online live broadcast.
With everyone's attention, Wang Hao said, "I am doing research on geometry. My colleague Lin Bohan and I have studied a new type of geometry."
"We already have some results, but we haven't given it a name yet, so I call it new geometry."
"This new type of geometry must first satisfy the following axioms. First, all straight lines on the graph intersect."
"The second is that in its topological phase transition form, all straight lines do not intersect."
"Let's make an agreement first..."
Wang Hao spoke carefully.
Everyone was listening attentively, and everyone was very surprised.
The report given by Wang Hao was very unexpected. He has made many achievements in the fields of number theory and partial differential equations. Others took it for granted that he would do research in these two directions.
result……
Geometry? New geometry?
This has almost nothing to do with number theory and partial differential equations. They can be said to be completely different fields.
However, the new geometry mentioned by Wang Hao is indeed somewhat attractive. It is very difficult to create a new type of geometry. Just imagining the geometric shape feels like it has overdrawn the brain cells.
Geometry, especially involving complex geometric problems, can become very difficult to understand.
Riemannian geometry is like this, Euclidean geometry is like this, and Roche geometry is like this.
One problem is that all new geometric research has a purpose, rather than relying on imagination to specifically create a new geometric definition.
That kind of work makes no sense.
Wang Hao continued to speak for more than ten minutes, and then he basically finished talking about the results of his work. People at the venue also listened patiently. They found that Wang Hao's results were very good, and he was able to study a new type of geometry to this extent.
.
If we can continue to improve it, add more propositions, and form a strict axiom system, it will be possible to achieve harmony, completeness, and independence among the various axioms.
This process is very long.
As long as the research can be completed, it will be great, which is equivalent to adding a new subject to geometry, just like Riemannian geometry and Euclidean geometry.
But, what's the use?
When all the reports were over, a scholar in the front row asked through the moderator, "Dr. Wang Hao, can you tell us what problems your new geometry research is aimed at?"
Wang Hao smiled softly and replied, "I am going to use it to explain electromagnetic force."
