Chapter 115: Returning to China

"Then I'll trouble you, Professor Deligne. If there are no other questions, I'll leave first."

In the audit team's office, Xu Chuan smiled brightly and bowed slightly to Professor Deligne.

He knew that the old man in front of him was a regular reviewer of the Annual Review of Mathematics and had a huge influence on the Annual Review of Mathematics. With his guarantee, he did not have to worry about his paper being ruined.

Of course, it is impossible for the Annual Journal of Mathematics to do such a thing, unless they don’t want to do it anymore.

"Xu, I hope to see you again at Princeton in September this year." Professor Deligne said with a smile.

Xu Chuan waved his hand and left the office calmly.

...

The blue and white plane drew an arc in the quiet blue sky. After a long time, the plane landed at the Magic City International Airport.

The plane stopped, and Xu Chuan walked off the plane carrying his backpack and dragging his suitcase.

[Congratulations to ‘Xu Chuan’, a first- and fifth-level undergraduate student from our school, for solving the world’s difficult problem Weyl-berry Conjecture. 】

In the reception hall of Modu International Airport, a large red banner opened attracted the attention of many passengers and airport staff.

The speed of transmitting information on the Internet is always faster than the speed of airplane flight. When Xu Chuan handed over the proof process of the Weyl-berry conjecture to the "Annual Review of Mathematics" for publication, the Weyl-berry conjecture was promoted to the Xu-weyl-berry theorem.

The accurate news that the "Annals of Mathematics" will publish this proof in the next issue has been delivered to the country.

Compared with the stage-proven news at the previous report meeting, the news this time was delivered more quickly.

Although the national news media will not report it extensively before the paper is officially published in the Annals of Mathematics, there is no doubt that the rapid spread of news on the Internet is due to their behind-the-scenes promotion.

The Weyl-berry conjecture is not as famous as top conjectures such as Goldbach's conjecture, Riemann's conjecture, and standard conjecture. Even many people, including math students studying mathematics, do not know the existence of this conjecture.

But its difficulty lies there. Mathematics conjectures at the t2-t3 level will 100% be nominated for top mathematics awards such as the Fields Medal and the Abel Prize after being proven.

If there are no very famous achievements in the mathematics community in the next two years, we can also look forward to the Fields Medal at the 2018 International Mathematics Congress two years later.

Oh, including the Crawford Award in May this year, I hope to win it.

Compared with applied engineering, in terms of basic science, compared with Western countries, domestic basic science is indeed much weaker.

Not to mention other things, in mathematics, no Chinese scholar has ever won some top awards, such as the Fields Medal, the Abel Medal, and the Crawford Medal.

Not to mention Chinese or ethnic Chinese, that means nothing to the country.

The emergence of an outstanding local scholar, especially when he is still so young, only 18 years old, and has just entered university, can greatly enhance the national confidence for the country, promote the development of mathematics, and enable the development of mathematics this year.

And in the next few years, the number of students devoted to mathematics, a basic science, will be greatly improved.

This is undoubtedly important for the development of the country.

Therefore, whether it is Xinwen Network or media workers such as Renren Daily and Youth Daily, they have prepared manuscripts.

All we are waiting for is the paper proving the Weyl-berry conjecture to be published in the Annual Journal of Mathematics.

As long as the paper is published, these state machines will be activated and promoted nationwide and even around the world to help enhance Xu Chuan's reputation and then compete for the Crawford Prize, Fields Medal, Abel Prize and other top mathematics

Awards.

After all, this is no longer a matter of Xu Chuan alone, but is linked to the national honor.

For these formal news media, they will only confirm and publish the paper 100% after it is published, but for the media workers below, it is different.

They do not need the paper to be officially published. After confirming the accurate news that the Weyl-berry conjecture was promoted to the Xu-weyl-berry theorem, they have already started a carnival.

Therefore, those who came to the airport to receive Xu Chuan today were not only Nanda University who hung banners, but also countless media reporters and Jinling City leaders.

When Xu Chuan came out of the airport with a backpack on his back and a suitcase in his hands, the crowd at the reception became agitated.

"Coming, coming, coming out."

Someone in the crowd shouted something, and immediately, photographers carrying cameras and reporters holding microphones swarmed up, surrounding the confused Xu Chuan.

Various flash lights kept sounding along with the clicking sound, and reporters kept asking questions.

"Classmate Xu Chuan, how did you manage to prove two world-class conjectures within one year?"

"Classmate Xu Chuan, can you share with us how you feel now?"

"Classmate Xu Chuan..."

The noisy sounds and flashing lights immediately drowned Xu Chuan, but fortunately the crowd separated after a while.

Mayor Jiang, the president of Nanjing University, the dean of the School of Mathematics and other unfamiliar faces that I had met at school before walked up the road separated by the reporters.

"Classmate Xu Chuan, congratulations, you have proved another world-class problem."

Mayor Jiang walked forward with a smile, cordially held Xu Chuan's hands and congratulated him.

"Mayor Jiang, you are very polite. This is just a trivial matter, nothing worth mentioning." Xu Chuan said modestly.

"This is a trivial matter that is not worth mentioning. You have proved a mathematical problem that no one has been able to prove for decades. Even if it is famous all over the world, you are so humble."

Mayor Jiang patted the back of Xu Chuan's hand, and after the two exchanged pleasantries, he introduced him to the unfamiliar leader next to him.

This chapter is not finished yet, please click on the next page to continue reading the exciting content! This time, in addition to the city leaders of Jinling City, the secretary-general of the province also came to pick him up, which shows the importance they attach to him.

.

After all, generally speaking, if you want provincial leaders to take the initiative to pick you up at the airport, it usually involves high-level foreign diplomacy or the arrival of top domestic figures.

However, for a well-known scholar like Xu Chuan who has already proven a world-class problem at such a young age and is even expected to win the Fields Medal two years later, it is normal to make an exception.

The group did not spend too much time at the airport. After chatting for a while, the group got into a special car and went straight to Jinling.

After all, this is a magical city, and we have already left the province. If we want to hold a welcome ceremony and award ceremony, we won’t be here.

In the special car arranged by the school, Xu Chuan sat in the same car with his tutor Chen Zhengping, Dean of the School of Mathematics Rong Zhizhuan, and President Liu Gaojun.

After the group chatted for a while, the instructor Chen Zhengping looked at Xu Chuan and asked: "You should have graduated this time when you come back."

It is said to be a question, but in fact it is an affirmative sentence. As long as Xu Chuan wants to, NTU is ready to let him graduate at any time.

"If I graduate, I should be fine in mathematics, but in physics, I don't have any outstanding results, so I plan to postpone my graduation in mathematics and graduate with physics."

Xu Chuan also knew what his instructor meant, but he did not follow his instructions.

"It's okay. Physics isn't a problem for you. I'll arrange a physics exam for you after you return to school. It's just an undergraduate exam. Once you pass it, you can get your diploma. It won't be difficult for you."

On the side, Rong Zhizhuan, the dean of the School of Mathematics, said quickly. After finishing speaking, he added: "After you graduate, the school will arrange a direct PhD for you. We have already contacted Princeton. Then you will go out to study mathematics as an exchange student.

, you just need to prepare."

Behind the scenes, as long as I didn’t directly say that you failed the physics exam, there would be no problem.

"Well, this is not good."

Xu Chuan was dumbfounded by Dean Rong's words. Are you going to make the decision for him? He didn't say anything.

Without continuing to answer the conversation, Xu Chuan changed the subject and said, "Dean, when I return to school, I would like to apply to borrow the school's astronomical observatory and astronomical observation equipment."

"Huh? Why did you borrow those things? Why are you suddenly interested in astronomy?" Rong Zhizhuan asked curiously.

"It's not about astronomy, but it's related to the Weyl-berry conjecture I proved before. The core of the Weyl-berry conjecture is derived from drum fractal and spectral theory."

Xu Chuan shook his head slightly and continued: "To put it simply, after proving the Weyl-berry conjecture, we can use this conjecture to verify and calculate the precise size of distant stars."

"For example, stars, black holes, and galaxies, these stars and galaxies that could only be judged by some numerical values ​​in the past, can now make more accurate judgments through this theorem."

"I had considered this aspect before when the weakened form of the Weyl-berry conjecture was proved, but at that time, on the one hand, the Weyl-berry conjecture was not fully proved, and on the other hand, our school's astronomical observation equipment had its own

It’s a mission, so I’m too embarrassed to speak.”

"Now that the Weyl-berry conjecture has been proven, I would like to borrow the school's astronomical observation equipment to study and demonstrate it."

Rong Zhizhuan suddenly understood, nodded and said: "This is no problem, just how long do you need it to take?"

The school's astronomical equipment does not belong to him, but since Xu Chuan has spoken and it is related to Weyl-Berry's conjecture, it will naturally not be postponed, but the time will have to be discussed. After all, these astronomical equipment also have their own tasks.

Xu Chuan thought for a while and replied: "It shouldn't take long, half a month at most, or a week or ten days at the shortest. However, it requires the participation of many equipment such as radio telescopes and astronomical observatories."

He only needs to collect data about Betelgeuse, and it is some designated data, so it does not take too long.

"That's no problem at all. I thought you would need it for a few months. I'll just apply for it after I go back in ten days and a half."

Hearing this, Rong Zhizhuan breathed a sigh of relief. It was only half a month and it wouldn't affect anything.

"As for the fact that you need to use astronomical equipment to study the Weyl-berry conjecture, the school will coordinate the equipment for you, but you remember to set up a scientific research project and apply to the school for the amount of scientific research funds required. This is related to the Weyl-berry conjecture. If something goes wrong

The results can be publicized, not just by the school, but also by higher-ups."

On the side, Principal Liu Gaojun, who had been sitting silently on his chair, suddenly interrupted.

He understood the importance attached to the Weyl-berry conjecture better than Rong Zhizhuan. If Rong Zhizhuan only considered the mathematical value of Xu Chuan and the Weyl-berry conjecture, he considered it even more.

For the above, from the weyl-berry conjecture, no, it should be said that the results derived from the xu-weyl-berry theorem, the bigger the better.

This can secure publicity resources to a greater extent, let more people know about it, and expand its influence.
