"What? Polignac conjecture?!"

Zhang Yitang, who had taken off his glasses, was stunned when he heard Qiu Chengtong's exclamation.

What Li Mu is going to talk about next is actually Polignac’s conjecture?

Zhang Yitang was in disbelief, then quickly put on his glasses and looked at the blackboard again.

The feeling of being moved by the charm of mathematics in my heart just now has been overtaken by surprise again.

Then Li Mu wrote the steps on the blackboard, causing him to fall into a brief trance again.

"It's actually true..."

As for the other people around them, the situation is no better than the two of them, and is even more exaggerated.

Why do such awesome people still exist?

The Polignac conjecture is a more general conjecture than the twin prime conjecture.

The statement is: for all natural numbers k, there are infinite pairs of prime numbers (p, p+2k), and the case where k=1 is the twin prime number conjecture.

This conjecture was proposed by the mathematician Alphonse de Polignac in 1849 and became a higher peak behind the peak of the twin prime conjecture.

In the past, mathematicians could only climb the peak of the twin prime conjecture for the time being. As for Polignac, they could only wait until the twin prime conjecture was solved before looking ahead.

This situation of going to Shu before Longdu is conquered generally does not exist in the world of mathematics, because except for civil sciences, most people are relatively self-aware.

As a result, now, Li Mu had just climbed the peak of twin quality conjecture, and he started climbing the next peak without even taking a break?

As soon as you get Long, you want to look forward to Shu?

However, when Li Mu wrote a few lines of new formulas on this half of the blackboard, they knew that this was not about looking at Shu, but about pursuing victory.

Because Li Mu clearly followed his previous method and continued to deduce it towards the back.

This shows that his method can be expanded in the future!

And what Li Mu developed was even more amazing to them.

This method seems to be really useful to prove the Polignac conjecture!

Because Li Mu proved another conclusion in just a few steps!

"...Here we can clearly see that when k is within 50, the Polignac conjecture is true."

After completely filling up the last blackboard, Li Mu explained the meaning of these steps with a smile.

"That is to say, when k belongs to 1 to 50, there are infinitely many pairs of prime numbers of the form (p, p+2k)."

"But how do we extend k to infinity?"

Li Mu put a question mark on the corner of the blackboard.

?

"I'm sure I've found a wonderful proof, but there's too little space for me to write about it."

"in addition……"

He raised his wrist and looked at his watch.

"An hour has passed and my report has just ended."

He smiled slightly at everyone.

"Then, thank you all again for coming to participate in my report. I hope you will be satisfied."

"I also wish our Chinese Mathematics Academic Summit will be better and better."

Bowed slightly.

Then, without waiting for applause, he hurriedly walked backstage.

Just kidding, he can probably guess that the following audience members probably want to curse.

And it was exactly as he expected.

Whether it is Qiu Chengtong, Zhang Yitang or others, they all have expressions full of question marks.

At this moment, I wanted to rush forward and tie Li Mu to it, so that he could continue to prove it.

Damn it, you were convinced that there was a perfect proof method, and then you stopped writing it because you couldn’t write it on the blackboard or you didn’t have enough time?

Do you think you are Fermat?

If it was really Fermat who was here today, they would have to nudge him hard.

If there are not enough blackboards, then bring in some more blackboards. If every school is short of everything, there is no shortage of blackboards.

Time doesn't matter. We won't have lunch. It's no problem to just keep listening here with you.

How dare you run away like this?

It's almost like the author went out of context.

Did you know that last time there was a broken dog who was recognized by readers when he went out and was beaten so hard that his mother didn’t even recognize him?

Of course, no matter how long they complained in their hearts, in the end, Qiu Chengtong and Zhang Yitang looked at each other and couldn't help laughing.

Forget it, it was satisfactory enough to see the proof of the twin prime conjecture today, and they no longer had to know how to prove the Polignac conjecture.

Li Mu didn't say anything, maybe because he had his own considerations.

They just need to wait for Li Mu until the day he sends out the paper.

"Snapped."

"Snapped."

"Pa bang..."

Zhang Yitang stood up and clapped his hands.

Then everyone else came to their senses and clapped.

Even though Li Mu has ended, the applause he deserves is still indispensable.

This applause is given to this young mathematical genius and to their mathematics.

This ends the report.

Almost all the participants were not only shocked after the report, but they were also glad that they did not miss this historic report.

This report is destined to leave a mark in the history of mathematics, and each of them is a witness.

Mathematics scholars from the Chinese Mathematical Society are basically proud of having a genius like Li Mu.

For those students, although they watched the whole report with confused expressions, after knowing what happened, they could only express one sentence in their hearts: The Shepherd is awesome!

At this time, Li Ruyu felt even more excited.

Although she was confused about why her math was so bad despite being born to the same mother, this did not prevent her from being happy for her brother's achievements.

"Xin Xin, did you see that! My brother...ahem, Li Mu is so awesome!"

Li Ruyu was so excited that he almost spilled the beans.

Fortunately, Xin Xin is the kind of person who is relatively slow to react, and the surroundings are quite noisy, so she didn't hear it.

"Yeah, I really envy them for being good at math." Xin Xin's face started to cry: "I originally studied biology because biology doesn't need math very much. Who would have thought that our biology now has to be the same as biology? When dealing with informatics, you have to deal with biostatistics.”

"Okay, let's not talk about these things."

Li Ruyu comforted her, because after hearing this, she also felt a headache.

"Then... let's go find your brother now?"

"Okay, let me ask."

Li Ruyu took out his cell phone and asked Li Mu.

Then, Li Mu quickly replied to her with a message: "Well, I'm surrounded here, please wait a little longer over there." 】

【ah? Who are you surrounded by? Can anyone stop you now? 】

[Uh, Fields Medal winner Qiu Chengtong, our Chairman Yuan Xiang of the Chinese Mathematical Society, Dean of your School of Mathematics, Academician Lian Zhengxing and other big guys. 】

[…As if I didn’t ask. 】
