Wang Hao told Zhou Qingyuan about his research and briefly introduced his ideas for research on solving the "Thirteen Kinds" of Partial Differential Directions.
Said one thing, said another...
Zhou Qingyuan's mouth straightened as he listened. He felt that if he continued to listen, his facial muscles would become stiff.
The solution of a certain type of partial differential equations is generally a very small research topic. Many doctoral students and graduate students can also do it. Some university lecturers will also use similar research to "make up papers".
This sounds like high school students studying "other solutions" to a problem, and the meaning is similar.
Of course.
Partial differential equations are much more complex. As long as there are methods that have not been discovered by predecessors, they are cutting-edge and pioneering research. However, it is undeniable that adding new solutions to special equations has little significance for the development of mathematics.
Not all partial differential equations are solvable.
Partial differential equations that are often of great research value generally cannot be analytically solved.
These are the key research objects.
The partial differential equations subject of the National Science Foundation project that Zheng Yaojun applied for is centered around the study of the existence, regularity and manifold classification of canonical metrics in Riemannian geometry and complex geometry.
The partial differential equations project supported by the National Fund is centered around 'developing the theory of geometric partial differential equations'. In other words, partial differential equations and geometric figures are connected, and studying the properties of important partial differential equations is the core direction of research and development.
difficulty.
It contains too many areas, too many.
Research on canonical measures, mathematical general relativity, existence, uniqueness, regularity and asymptotic behavior of various types of complete nonlinear partial differential equations...
etc.
Wang Hao also studies the solution of partial differential equations. His level is definitely much higher than that of ordinary graduate students and doctoral students, and his research results on various solutions are obviously at a higher level.
However, it can still be classified as "small research", and each study can be submitted separately, which is probably "on the edge of SCI".
Thirteen types...
Thinking of the number of studies, Zhou Qingyuan only had admiration in his heart. Each study was indeed a small one, but the superposition of quantity can also lead to qualitative changes. Putting a dozen small results together...
I dare not say anything else!
Because the solution of partial differential equations is often closer to the bottom level and more practical than other research, comprehensive research on the solution of thirteen types of partial differential equations, after the paper is published, it will definitely have a very high citation rate.
"Wang Hao..."
Zhou Qingyuan only felt admiration in his heart.
If it is just a small study, it can be easily completed by summarizing it in daily life. Putting thirteen small studies together, its difficulty and complexity are no less than Zheng Yaojun's project, right?
In fact.
Wang Hao has a bigger content that he hasn’t started writing yet, which is to prove the regularity of the Monge-Ampere equation under certain conditions.
There has been no breakthrough in research on the properties of the Monge-Ampere equation for more than 20 years. It only proves a property of the Monge-Ampere equation under certain conditions, which is also the top result.
"There is no problem with core journals, but I don't know if I can try to submit to top mathematics journals?"
Wang Hao thought.
New week, new content.
The "Partial Differential Equations" course enters the "Properties of Solutions" section to study the uniqueness, stability and asymptotic properties of the solutions.
This part of the content is the basis for the study of partial differential equations, but for undergraduates, the knowledge requirements are not high.
Wang Hao still established a research and development task, related to the 'research on the properties of solutions to specific partial differential equations'. The difficulty of the research and development task was level C. He didn't think about doing any research, he just wanted to accumulate 'inspiration points' through the task. When settling,
Just exchange and accumulate some learning coins.
Now he has discovered the problem.
If he only does low-difficulty research and development, it is easy to obtain enough inspiration value through teaching, and his life will become a constant writing of papers.
The problem is that the research content is not very difficult and the impact is generally not great.
Publishing a paper also requires review fees and publishing fees, and the school's subsidy is simply not enough for publication.
From a financial perspective, it is a loss.
In addition, for low-difficulty research, the inspiration value is accumulated quickly, and the rate of exchanging teaching coins for settlement tasks is also very low.
So you can do small research, just publish a few articles occasionally. You can only make up the number of SCI papers, but the number of his SCI papers far exceeds the standard. If you continue to "lose money" to publish small research, it feels like the gain outweighs the gain.
What is the difference between publishing ten articles a month and publishing twenty articles a month?
They are all ‘unimaginable’ numbers!
After Wang Hao thought about it carefully, he decided to focus on major research, at least until he finished writing the current paper.
To solve the thirteen types of partial differential equations, just summarizing is a huge task.
Each type requires six or seven pages, and more than a dozen types amount to hundreds of pages. The huge workload is very troublesome.
"Take your time and you will definitely get it done!"
Wang Hao cheered himself up, and when class came on Monday, he became energetic again. Lectures are the most rewarding. He can gain a lot of knowledge, ideas, and a lot of inspiration.
If you want to gain more inspiration value, students need to listen more carefully to the lectures, and the high requirements of the course must continue to be maintained.
For students majoring in applied mathematics, Zheng Yaojun taught Thursday’s exercise class. Zheng Yaojun, who likes to get close to students, has won the favor of more than 90% of the students.
Even students who love their students will hope that their teachers will always laugh, have a good temper, and be approachable.
Now, it's Wang Hao.
When Wang Hao is in class, he will occasionally smile, but it is definitely not a smile that is close to the students. When he finds a student sleeping or deserting, he will immediately show his majesty.
"What's your name? I've written it down!"
This is what Wang Hao often says. As the course progresses, the previous sentence gradually disappears.
Most of the students who always had "problems" had their names written down by Wang Hao, without even asking.
Some people who don't like studying have simply given up on the course.
Currently, there are only ninety-seven people majoring in applied mathematics who are attending class. Two of them were absent from class once and were called on several times in class, so they decided to give up in advance.
Looking at the young and handsome figure who was teaching seriously on the podium, the students majoring in applied mathematics missed Teacher Zheng who was in the exercise class last week.
Zheng Yaojun...
What a great teacher!
On the second day, first-year graduate students and sophomore students majoring in applied mathematics expressed very similar sighs, except that they missed Wang Hao.
Zheng Yaojun's teaching level is relatively poor, and of course he does not "understand the 20% bonus". He was inspired by Wang Hao's suggestion over the weekend, and he has been focusing on research and development recently.
The quality of lectures has naturally declined again.
In the "Differential Equations" class, Zheng Yaojun's explanation speed was very fast. Some students who had not previewed the class quickly couldn't keep up with the progress, and later simply gave up without knowing what was being said.
This is actually normal and is directly related to the student's ability.
Xihai University is just an ordinary university, barely labeled as a 'key' university. The strength of the School of Science is not strong, and many of the graduate students recruited are 'transferred'. The students' abilities are naturally different from those of top universities.
difference.
The key is that there is no difference in course difficulty.
It is not easy for most students to keep up with the course progress. If the teacher's teaching level is worse, it will naturally become more difficult to keep up with the progress.
Anyway...
At this time, many first-year mathematics students began to miss Wang Hao very much.
Some even thought of going to the Academic Affairs Office to make suggestions, asking Teacher Zheng Yaojun to take a break, and let Wang Hao take over the rest of the classes.
…
Teaching, making summaries, and writing papers.
Wang Hao's life is only filled with three things, and time flies by in a hurry. Two weeks have passed in the blink of an eye.
In two weeks, three papers were completed and submitted separately.
There is a small paper related to the "property of solutions", which was submitted to an ordinary SCI mathematics journal.
Thirteen types of papers on solving partial differential equations. The compressed and re-compressed summary reached 62 pages. They were submitted directly to "Theoretical Mathematics Weekly". "Theoretical Mathematics Weekly" publishes it once a week, and each time it publishes five to ten articles.
The important thing is that it does not limit the number of pages of the paper, and the review is relatively loose, and it will not be rejected due to minor issues such as format.
The reason why I submitted my article to "Theoretical Mathematics Weekly" was because the paper had too many pages.
Sixty-two pages.
The Theoretical Mathematics Weekly charges US$42 per page, and the printing fee for sixty-two pages is US$2,600.
"What a big loss!"
When Wang Hao paid the publication fee, he felt that he had made a big loss. "Theoretical Mathematics Weekly" was not a core journal, and the school subsidy that the paper could apply for did not exceed 8,000 yuan at most.
The net loss was more than 10,000.
For another paper, "Proving the Regularity of the Monge-Ampère Equation", he thought about it carefully and decided to "bet a bigger one" and try to double his losses and earn back, and submitted it to "Acta Mathematica"
.
"Acta Mathematica", "Annual Review of Mathematics", "New Advances in Mathematics", and "Journal of the Amerikan Mathematical Society" are internationally recognized as the "four kings" in the field of mathematics and are the top journals in mathematics.
Because the number of papers published each year is relatively small, the impact factor is far from high, but it is still considered a "top academic journal" that is a level higher than core journals.
If the paper can be published in the Journal of Mathematics, the minimum school subsidy will reach 200,000 yuan.
Another good news is that there was a reviewer at the STACS conference. I had a phone call with him, and later exchanged several emails to discuss the research issue of 'Large Number Multiplication Algorithm', and then the paper he submitted was approved.
paper.
In June, he will go to STACS to give a report.
So Wang Hao went to the Academic Affairs Building.
He went to the school's Science and Technology Department, found Director Zhu Jianrong, and talked about thesis subsidy.
"Cauchy issue paper, "Medical Image Analysis," should be a core journal, right?" Wang Hao said simply, "I have already applied, and it has been two days since I came here, and it has not been reviewed yet."
Zhu Jianrong checked and saw Wang Hao's application and read the content in a low voice, "Cauchy non-negative matrix factorization expression? "Medical Image Analysis", IF, 17.89."
He raised his head and said, "The subsidy must be no problem. The school's subsidy is based on the classification and ranking of academic journals searched by the Academy of Sciences. This paper should be able to get about 30,000 yuan."
Li Ming, who was next to him, listened and asked, "Wang Hao, if I remember correctly, this is already the seventh paper, right? Seven ordinary SCI papers, four core papers, you..."
He made a little joke as he said, "Are you planning to make a fortune from school subsidies?"
"yes."
Wang Hao nodded and admitted with a smile.
Li Ming and Zhu Jianrong looked at each other. They thought about it carefully. With the speed at which Wang Hao published papers, he could indeed make a fortune from subsidies.
How long has it been?
A month and a half?
Seven SCI articles, four of which were published in core academic journals, received more than 100,000 yuan in paper subsidies.
Salary of 10,000 yuan and subsidy of 100,000 yuan!
If this happens every month, just by publishing papers, your annual income can easily exceed one million.
Really...
I'm jealous!
Zhu Jianrong suddenly asked, "Are you just here to ask about the subsidy? Even if it takes two days without review, it's not worth a special trip, right?"
"of course not."
Wang Haodao, "I'm mainly here to ask about reimbursement for participating in an international first-class academic conference."
"A kind of academic conference? What conference?"
"STACS."
Zhu Jianrong was stunned for a long time with his mouth half open before he managed to say, "Are you sure?"
He knows STACS.
STACS is the top academic conference in the computer science field.
There are not too many participants in this type of professional top academic conference, but it is very difficult to get invitations. Either they are top academic leaders in the computer field, or they are related to review, organization, and management work. The most direct ones are
That is, the paper passes the review.
Of course, there is another way, which is to attend at your own expense. You can also attend by purchasing tickets.
Wang Hao cannot be the first two, and the last one is extremely unlikely. Very few scholars will attend academic conferences at their own expense.
Then it can only be that a paper passes the review.
What papers can pass the application for the STACS conference? The reports made at the STACS conference must be the top international research. It can be said that every research paper is qualified to be published in top academic journals.
"I am very sure."
As Wang Hao spoke, he took out his mobile phone and showed Zhu Jianrong a photo of the invitation letter he received, which also marked the specific time for the academic report.
Zhu Jianrong looked at it carefully for a long time and said blankly, "The school must fully fund the report for a first-class meeting. According to regulations, passports, visas, air tickets, hotel accommodation, meals, etc., all expenses can be funded.
, you can also bring someone to participate.”
He added, "Just go and remember to keep all the receipts."
Wang Hao got a satisfactory answer.
gone.
Li Ming didn't know about STACS. He asked with confusion, "What is STACS? Is it a first-class conference? Which country is it held in?"
Zhu Jianrong did not answer, but took a deep breath and said seriously, "It seems that we can't wait until the summer vacation! Now, we have to discuss and come up with a plan on how to keep Wang Hao!"
"If he goes to another school, we won't have time to regret it!"
"Right now!"
"Hurry up and contact Dean Luan, Secretary Cai, Professor Wu Lifang, Professor Zhou Qingyuan..."
