At this time, I don’t know if Master is at home.
Yu Hua walked hurriedly through the campus and came to the West Campus, which is the area for school professors and their families. Returning to Room 28, his wife Wu Xiaoyuan went out to buy groceries. His master Hua Luogeng happened to be at home after finishing his senior class in the Department of Mathematics.
study.
The quiet atmosphere, the afternoon sunshine, the white smoke that lingers like cooking smoke, and the fiery red cigarette butts revealed, everything seemed so familiar.
"The quality of this article is very high. Both the content and the format of the article are very sophisticated and concise. There is nothing that needs to be revised. It can be seen that you have not slackened off during this period, and your research on discrete logarithms and analytic number theory is very thorough.
." Hua Luogeng leaned on the chair, crossed his legs, put down the 5,000-word paper he had read in his hand, took the last puff of his cigarette, put it in the ashtray and put it out, and smiled at Yu Hua who was directly opposite him.
"Master, don't you need to modify it at all?" Yu Hua asked after hearing this.
Hua Luogeng smiled and asked: "Are you questioning my review level?"
"Hehe, no, how dare I." Yu Hua chuckled.
"Okay, that's it. Are you going to submit this article domestically or abroad?" Hua Luogeng shook his head, waved his hand, and asked.
When Yu Hua heard this question, he did not rush to make a decision. He pondered for a while and asked: "Master, I don't understand the publishing process very well. What is the difference between domestic and foreign countries?"
"The difference lies in influence. The influence of foreign mathematics journals is several times more than that of domestic mathematics journals. In addition, there are factors such as review standards and time. Domestic mathematics journals have short publication cycles and low standards. Take the journal of our school as an example.
Submit now and the first draft will be passed tomorrow and enter the review stage. It will probably be in time for the latest issue of the journal next month to be published nationwide."
Hua Luogeng picked up the teacup on the table, took a sip, and said slowly: "If it is submitted abroad, the average cycle is about two months, and the review cycle of top academic journals is about three months. The review standards are very high, and the rejection rate is
It’s also very high, but it will be open to the world.”
"If they want to be submitted to foreign countries, which academic journals should students submit to?" Yu Hua continued to ask thoughtfully, having a basic understanding of the differences and characteristics of articles published in domestic and foreign journals.
"Of course it is Princeton's Annual Journal of Mathematics, which has thirty-six articles per year. It is the top academic journal in the field of mathematics. With the influence of this article, if it is submitted to the Annual Journal of Mathematics, there is a high probability that it will be published."
Hua Luogeng said without hesitation: "I can sign it for you when you send it, so that it won't be rejected due to the negligence of the review editor at the first draft stage. The review cycle is about three months. If it's quick... it can be done in about one month.
, after all, the port city now has air routes with the United States, so it is not slow in terms of efficiency."
"Are you going to submit it to the Annual Journal of Mathematics?" Yu Hua was stunned for a moment, a little surprised.
Hua Luogeng smiled and said: "Why, you don't want to? This is the top mathematics journal in the world. How many people want to apply but are not qualified. I happened to meet Professor Lefshetz, the editor-in-chief of Princeton Mathematics Annual, and he was able to sell me one.
face."
Yes, you are the boss...
No, you are the best among the best.
The corners of Yu Hua's mouth twitched slightly, and he shook his head and replied: "No, I'm just a little surprised."
"Submit this article to the Annals of Mathematics so that it will not be buried. This is a major breakthrough in the field of cryptography. Once the paper is officially published, you will be a real cryptography expert with a very good level... I have to say, Xiao
Hua, your growth rate is much faster than I expected."
Hua Luogeng stared at Yu Hua, who was young but extremely steady, and said with some emotion: "Now, based on your level, you can barely be regarded as a young mathematician."
He watched with his own eyes as Yu Hua grew from a high school student studying the elementary mathematics system to a young mathematician with extremely high mathematical attainments and academic standards in just a few months.
Yes, Yu Hua, who has now officially researched the results of asymmetric cryptography, is qualified to be called a mathematician.
"These are all your teachings, Master. Without you, students are nothing." Yu Hua shook his head and said respectfully.
"If I don't say this, my ears are almost ringing with noise, so I decided to submit it to the Annual Journal of Mathematics." Hua Luogeng smiled and shook his head, and the conversation returned to the main topic: "Is there anything else you want to say?"
"Student, there is one more thing."
Yu Hua heard this and said quickly.
"Say." Hua Luogeng nodded.
"The student would like you to sign this article as the corresponding author." Yu Hua looked at Hua Luogeng and said.
Signed corresponding author?
When Hua Luogeng heard Yu Hua's words, he frowned slightly: "Give me a suitable reason." He did not intend to sign this article, and the corresponding author and the first author both defaulted to Yu Hua.
If he signs as the corresponding author, he will get at least half of the results of asymmetric cryptography theory.
But the problem is, he didn't participate at all.
"Firstly, this article has your theoretical guidance and help from the beginning. Master, you should be signed. Secondly, this academic achievement is too heavy for a student to eat alone. I want to make the Japanese and other countries around the world believe in asymmetric cryptography, and quickly
To enter, you must rely on your identity and influence." Yu Hua bowed and saluted, his words were full of respect, and then gave the most important reason.
What is your identity now?
A slightly famous top scorer in the Peking Joint Entrance Examination and a top student at Tsinghua Park, he is just an organization that hires scientific research talents. In this three-acre area of Tsinghua Park, Yu Hua is somewhat famous.
But in the real world of mathematics, he is just as transparent as a tick, and he is not even as famous as he is.
The academic circle is extremely cruel and realistic, and only recognizes achievements and not people.
Yu Hua, who is as transparent as a small one, published such important results on asymmetric cryptography, but the final result is difficult to predict. Even if it can be published in the Annual Journal of Mathematics, it will not achieve the desired effect.
However, it's different when you bring your own master.
Hua Luogeng, who studied under Hardy, is famous and influential in London and is well-known in the international mathematics community. With his signature on this article, the effect will be different immediately.
"You kid... Even if you don't become a mathematician, you are destined to become a strategist." Hearing this reason, Hua Luogeng was stunned for a moment, fell into silence, and glanced at Yu Hua with admiration and sigh in his eyes.
After finishing speaking, he picked up the pen in his right hand and wrote his name in the blank space in the corresponding author column at the end of the article.
"Thank you, student, for your compliment." Yu Hua accepted Hua Luogeng's words with a smile.
Hua Luogeng shook his head. After signing his name, he carefully tidied up the paper: "I will be responsible for the submission. How are you going to deal with the first set of encryption algorithms and algorithm cipher tables?"
"The country should give top priority to communications security." Yu Hua replied without hesitation.
The first set of encryption algorithms and cipher tables were given to the country, which was a manifestation of maximizing interests. Nanjing needed the results of asymmetric cryptography more than the organization.
The red secret deciphering data can allow the Blue Shirt Club and organizations to grasp the movements and conditions of the Japanese army, while the asymmetric cipher can keep China's information communications in a secure state for a longer period of time.
As long as the encryption algorithm and password table are not stolen, it is simply impossible to decipher the asymmetric password through external attacks.
Manpower is far from meeting the requirements. If timeliness of deciphering is required, such as deciphering within an hour, the Japanese must use high-performance supercomputers to do it.
This is also a decision Yu Hua made after thinking for a long time.
