Of course, Li Mu was not the only one who felt the suddenness, everyone else in the car also felt the suddenness.
However, when Li Mu was recognized, a person sitting in the first row immediately stood up with a smile and extended his hand to him.
"You are Li Mu. Nice to meet you. I am Zeng Mingqiong from Huaguo University of Science and Technology. I never expected that I would be on the same train as our mathematical genius."
Li Mu was stunned for a moment, and then quickly extended his hand: "Teacher Zeng, you are so kind."
And their conversation also attracted the attention of the entire carriage.
Li Mu's name has long been a household name in the mathematics community, and all these domestic mathematics scholars greeted him one after another.
Li Mu also met more than a dozen mathematics scholars from all over the world in a short period of time.
Most people have good intentions towards Li Mu. After all, Li Mu is now equivalent to the face of their Chinese mathematics community.
And Li Mu has indeed won a lot of face for his Chinese mathematics community internationally.
Now when they exchange mathematics with foreign friends, most people will mention Li Mu's name and praise him several times, making them all feel honored.
So in the end, the domestic scholars in the car even applauded Li Mu, which made Li Mu feel embarrassed.
After all, I was in a car full of strangers, and all of them applauded me. It was really embarrassing to think about it.
Finally, after thanking these enthusiastic domestic mathematics scholars, Li Mu and Lin Yao found a seat and sat down.
"How do you feel?" Lin Yao asked with a smile.
Li Mu said helplessly: "It's weird."
Lin Yao smiled and said, "This is all due to your achievements. After all, you have brought us glory internationally, as we should."
Li Mu nodded.
From this point of view, it doesn't feel as cruel as Professor Wu said at the beginning.
People are still pretty nice.
At this moment, a question suddenly came from the side: "Li Mu, I saw the abstract you submitted to the conference. Is it about the twin prime conjecture?"
Li Mu was stunned and turned around to see the participating scholar sitting in the seat next to them.
It seems that he is an associate professor of mathematics from Zengling University, a mathematics school of a second university, named Fan Pairen.
Li Mu nodded and said, "Yes."
Their report on this mathematics academic summit does not need to submit the original text directly. They only need to submit an abstract and explain what they want to talk about.
Therefore, he submitted the abstract long ago.
Fan Pairen continued to ask: "Are you sure you can solve this problem?"
Li Mu was stunned for a moment, then smiled and waved his hand and said, "That's not true."
"After all, this is a world-class mathematical conjecture. Who can say that they are sure? My report this time is basically just a simple sharing."
Perhaps it was an illusion, but Li Mu felt like he heard this man sigh vaguely in relief?
At this time, Fan Pairen continued: "Actually, I have been studying the twin prime conjecture. I have been studying it for almost twenty years and have published many related papers. I am only one step away from the proof. Let's talk about it?"
Li Mu was stunned again.
Published many related papers?
Just one step away from proof?
He recalled in his mind all the articles he had read related to the twin prime conjecture. Among the important papers written by domestic authors, there seemed to be no one named Fan Pairen?
Is this the kind of hidden boss who never comes out of the world?
And if he was really just one step away from proof, he would actually be willing to share it with me?
Li Mu was immediately in awe.
Such an awesome person is quite a nice person.
"You say it, I'm all ears."
He nodded and said.
"Well, the way I think of it is to use the finite field and circle method. My intuitive judgment is that these two methods have a certain similarity."
Li Mu was immediately shocked when he heard Fan Pairen's thoughts at the beginning.
Good guy, this must be a hidden boss, he can actually judge by intuition that the finite field and the circle method can be connected.
In addition, people have said that it has been studied for decades, and it is probably the best among the best.
Thinking of this, Fan Pairen's image in Li Mu's eyes became taller.
"Please tell me."
Li Mu's tone of voice became more respectful.
And it was probably his respectful attitude that gave Fan Pairen confidence.
Then he took a pen and paper from the side, put it on the back of the seat in front of him, and started writing.
And Li Mu also raised his head to take a look.
However, when Fan Pairen wrote out the first few formulas, Li Mu was stunned.
What is this?
Is this how the circle method and finite fields are combined?
Why didn't he know?
There is also this formula. Fan Pairen is sure what he wrote is correct?
This is totally untrue, right?
Can we draw an equal sign between these two sides?
Li Mu was a little confused. What Fan Pairen wrote was completely beyond his understanding of mathematics.
Unable to hold back, he raised a question: "Professor Fan, the two sides of your equation should not be equal, right? The domain of definition on the right and the domain of definition on the left are different. "
However, Fan Pairen said at this time: "I know, I know, but you first read the results I wrote, and I will explain them later."
Hearing Fan Pairen say this, Li Mu was a little confused. How can the contradiction caused here be made up for later?
This is a domain problem.
However, thinking that the other party could connect the finite field and the circle method, Li Mu believed his words for the time being and prepared to continue reading patiently.
The other professors and teachers around also raised their heads with interest.
After all, this is the twin prime conjecture, and no one in the mathematical community cares about this issue.
Professor Fan claims to have been researching for more than 20 years and is only one step away from proof. Is there really anything he can say?
However, as Fan Pairen continued to write, many scholars around him frowned, then shook their heads slightly and stopped paying attention.
At this time, Li Mu was also pulled by Professor Lin Yao next to him.
"Don't look at this person, he..." Professor Lin Yao hesitated for a moment, and then said: "Maybe it's civil science."
Li Mu was stunned for a moment: "Civil science? Can civil science still be an associate professor?"
Professor Lin Yao spread his hands: "This situation is too common. It's possible that they were not civil servants at first, but then they...became obsessed. That's more or less what it means. There was a Professor Li at Yanfeng University some time ago. Do you claim to have overturned Einstein’s theory of relativity?”
Li Mu: "..."
Is there such a thing?
The two of them talked in low voices, while Fan Pairen next to him was still writing by himself, and finally called Li Mu: "Look at me, and I will be able to explain the problem you just mentioned."
Li Mu still turned his head and looked over. After all, Fan Pairen was the first person Li Mu knew who thought that he could combine the circle method with the finite field.
He still couldn't help but believe it.
But after seeing it this time, he gave up on taking chances.
This person is really a civilian!
He couldn't help but ask: "Professor Fan, how on earth did you associate the circle method with the finite field? What kind of intuition?"
"It's just intuition." Fan Pairen said: "The finite field element is like a circle, carrying out an infinite cycle. The circle method is also composed of the unit circle, and then it is connected in this way. "
"Simply because they can all be related to Madoka?"
"Yes." Fan Pairen said matter-of-factly.
Li Mu:......
I'm super, round!
He didn't want to say anything more. With respect for mathematical truth, he directly pointed out several errors in Fan Pairen's calculations.
"Professor Fan, first of all, your subsequent inference cannot explain the previous definition domain contradiction problem. This is the first mistake. In addition, your application of Goldstone's theorem here is also inappropriate. Goldstone's Application needs to comply with several basic conditions... In addition..."
However, Li Mu's explanation did not work.
Fan Pairen shook his head and said: "No, no, it's because you haven't understood the meaning of my method."
Li Mu wanted to say something more, but Professor Lin Yao next to him pulled him back: "Let's change places."
Then he gave him a signal with his eyes.
Li Mu was helpless and knew Professor Lin Yao's intention, so he nodded, got up and changed seats with Professor Lin.
Lin Yao and Fan Pairen smiled: "Professor Fan, keep thinking. I wish you success as soon as possible."
Then he turned to Li Mu and said, "Now I have to teach you something you must know in the world of mathematics, that is, never argue with Minke."
Li Mu nodded in agreement.
really.
