The conference room fell into a quiet atmosphere.
Shao Yuming felt very embarrassed. He hoped that others would react, but everyone looked at Wang Hao and didn't say a word for a long time.
Zhang Hongxin was also embarrassed.
Even his expression froze, the pen in his hand fell to the ground, and he continued to remain motionless, as if he didn't know how to react for a while.
Everyone else was a little embarrassed too.
They recalled carefully that just now Wang Hao did say that he had proved the smoothness of the exact solution set of NS equations under conventional application values, but no one believed it at all, or they thought that Wang Hao was talking about the proof on his blog.
Then they worked on the calculations for two hours straight.
Now after listening to Shao Yuming's words, I know that Wang Hao has indeed made a proof. In other words, they have all done useless work, and the two hours of calculations are meaningless at all.
This is because he did not listen carefully to Wang Hao's words and did not believe what he said.
"But, it doesn't matter!"
Many people think they don't seem to need to be embarrassed.
While the meeting was going on, they didn't speak at all. Since they didn't speak, they hid their distrust in their hearts and no one else would know.
So why be embarrassed?
The people who are embarrassed now should be the people who refuted Wang Hao, namely Shao Yuming and Zhang Hongxin, but they said nothing and did nothing.
Ah Q’s spiritual victory method is effective!
Others immediately surrounded Wang Hao, and someone was the first to say, "Congratulations, Professor Wang, you have completed another major mathematical research!"
After the first person spoke, everyone else breathed a sigh of relief, "No wonder you said you already had the proof, so we shouldn't waste time doing calculations here!"
"Yes, yes!"
"Professor Wang, congratulations. I just won the Natural Science Award and published results in a top journal."
"What a promising young man, a true mathematical genius!"
Others thought of Wang Hao’s paper, “Why don’t we study Professor Wang’s paper together!”
"Anyway, it's not easy for everyone to get together."
"It makes sense!"
Someone has already turned on the computer to search for the latest issue of "New Advances in Mathematics", but only the title can be seen on the Internet - "Smoothness of Solutions to NS Equations under Fixed Range Values".
It is now impossible to get a physical version, and the content of the paper cannot be viewed at all.
But that's okay!
Wang Hao is here!
Someone stood up and continued, "Wang Hao, Academician Shao is right. Everyone is already together. It's not easy. Let's study your paper."
Wang Hao is naturally capable.
Anyway, the papers have been published. If you want to study it, you can study it. He logged on to the website, downloaded his paper, and sent it to everyone else.
At this time, the only ones who were embarrassed were Zhang Hongxin and Shao Yuming.
Zhang Hongxin was the most embarrassed. He hosted a seminar on applied mathematics. The purpose was to study NS equations, use the range of values covered by the application fields to continuously do calculations, and use a large number of mathematical calculations to provide confidence in related application fields.
As a result, the theory has been proven and the seminar naturally loses its meaning.
In addition, he felt even more embarrassed when he thought that Wang Hao had said with certainty that he had proved the smoothness of the ns equation under conventional values.
Wang Hao made it very clear that he had indeed misunderstood.
Yes, misunderstanding!
Zhang Hongxin still came over shamelessly, "Professor Wang, I'm really sorry. I did misunderstood just now. I thought you were talking about the article on the Internet, but I didn't expect you to really prove it."
"Your genius has truly exceeded my expectations..."
This sentence restored face.
Wang Hao was refuted a few times just now and felt very uncomfortable, but when he heard Zhang Hongxin said this
, I really can’t say anything else.
Zhang Hongxin also expressed what everyone felt, and they all understood it this way.
Once things were talked about, the atmosphere became much more relaxed.
Wu Hui also felt quite embarrassed. Now he finally understood why Wang Hao had been talking about the meeting being meaningless since the morning.
It turns out that others have already proved it!
"its not right!"
Wu Hui suddenly realized a problem. He reacted suddenly and shouted in surprise, "Wang Hao! Have you proved the smoothness of the NS equation?"
This voice made everyone else look over.
It's too late, but it's soon.
In fact, it had only been about two minutes since Shao Yuming walked in and told the news. Many people had not responded yet, and the awkwardness had just passed.
Now they all reacted, with shocked looks on their faces.
Smoothness of solution of NS equation?
Isn’t that one of the seven major mathematical problems of the millennium?
Wang Hao explained, "It's just a part. The proof is a limited range of values, not all values. On the issue of infinite values, I haven't found a proof method yet."
"Even the range value is amazing, it's an NS equation!"
"Yes, this should be the biggest breakthrough in recent decades, right? It must be Fields-level research!"
"I just realized that this is one of the millennium math problems!"
"Absolutely the best achievement in the world!"
After the shock was over, they quickly studied Wang Hao's thesis together.
Just now, some people thought that they came to the seminar and worked very hard on calculations for two hours. As a result, the underlying logic has been proven and everything has become useless.
Now they all feel they have come to the right place!
Even if you only get to see a paper that is destined to be taken seriously by the international mathematics community for the first time, it is completely worth the trip.
…
This is indeed an influential mathematical result.
After Wang Hao's paper was published, it immediately became the most watched research in the current issue of "New Advances in Mathematics".
Fields winner Martin Hare, a famous Austrian mathematician and one of the giants in the field of partial differential equations, commented on the paper, "This proof has made substantial progress in the study of the smoothness of NS equations."
"At the same time, the research has laid the foundation for the application field of NS equations. This is a great result!"
Great, this word is not used lightly.
Generally, it will only be used to evaluate the most advanced research in the world that can promote the development of human science and technology.
This shows the influence of Wang Hao’s research.
From the perspective of mathematical theory, Wang Hao has completed the smoothness proof of part of the NS equation solutions.
This part is probably only "one-third", and it may even be far less than that, because there is a huge difference between finite values and infinite values.
For example, there is almost no difference in mathematical logic between proving the value of 1 to 100 and proving the value of 1 to 10,000.
Because compared to proving the values from negative infinity to positive infinity, the range covered by finite values is too small.
The two are not the same concept at all.
However, from the perspective of applied mathematics, Wang Hao's research contribution is very large. His results allow applications in all related fields to no longer have to worry about the possible failure of NS equations.
This allows mathematical theoretical research to truly play a supporting role in applied mathematics.
Bruce Pulitzer believes that Wang Hao's research is the result of "half Fields", and his evaluation criteria are based on the contribution of mathematical theory.
However, the results of this half Fields are much more significant to applied mathematics than most Fields-level results.
It's just that the Fields Medal pays more attention to the role of mathematical theoretical research direction rather than the promotion role of applied fields.
In any case, Wang Hao’s research
The impact is very large.
The international mathematics community pays close attention to his paper, and scholars in fields related to the application of NS equations also pay attention to his paper.
The news has not yet been received in China, or the media that have noticed and reported it have not received much attention.
Domestic reports still focus on Wang Hao winning the first prize in natural science.
Wang Hao won the first prize in natural science at the age of only 26, becoming the youngest natural science prize winner.
At the same time, he is also the youngest scholar in this Science and Technology Award Conference and the only scholar under the age of 30.
Some media reported on Wang Hao's research, while others introduced him in detail, allowing many people to know more about Wang Hao.
"Wang Hao won the first prize in natural science", ranking sixth in the morning's Internet popularity.
But it's not the most popular.
There is an entry ranked third in popularity, which is also directly related to Wang Hao. The popular keyword is a bit strange, it is "mathematical analysis lottery."
"Mathematical Analysis Lottery"?
Many people saw this content and clicked on it to see a related interview report.
"If you could use mathematical methods to analyze the lottery results, buy the corresponding numbers, and win the jackpot, wouldn't you feel a sense of accomplishment?"
The comments below are naturally all "very fulfilling".
"I really want to be able to do this, so that I don't have to go to work anymore, and I can become a rich man by analyzing lottery tickets every day."
"The sense of accomplishment is overwhelming! Professor Wang Hao, YYDS, tell me the next winning number quickly!"
"Begging for the winning lottery number!"
Many people even commented on Wang Hao's Weibo, hoping that he could help analyze the winning numbers for the next lottery draw.
Another passage Wang Hao said in the same interview also aroused heated discussion.
"When buying lottery tickets, we assume that it all depends on luck and there is no human intervention?"
Someone immediately analyzed, "Is this the inside story of the Inner Lottery results?"
"It must be on the inside!"
"It turns out that this is why I couldn't win 5 million. The society is too dark!"
"..."
A lot of content on the Internet is always artificially amplified and misinterpreted.
In fact, Wang Hao was only subconsciously thinking mathematically at that time, and he needed to eliminate the possibility of any interference.
Human factors are naturally one of the possibilities.
Only when all interfering factors are eliminated can the logic be 100% correct.
However, after being analyzed in this way, it was as if he had an inside story on the Inner Lottery results, which also aroused public opinion and many people began to start conspiracy theories.
No one can tell whether there are specific problems with the lottery results.
However, after Wang Hao's words were analyzed in depth, it is obvious that the person in charge of the relevant agency may have a headache over this.
…
The popularity of public opinion tends to decline rapidly over time.
It is difficult for a mathematician to be popular for a long time, even if he wins the first prize in natural sciences. In fact, most people don't care because genius is far away from their lives.
What no one expected was that the heat was still there in the afternoon, but the topic turned to Wang Hao's latest research results.
After many media began to report it, the popularity naturally increased.
Some bloggers have also begun to explain the significance of Wang Hao's latest achievements. In addition, it also proves part of the NS equation problem, one of the millennium mathematics problems.
This topic continued to become popular as the topic in the morning.
Many people participated in the discussion.
The vast majority of people simply don’t understand what the NS equation is, but that doesn’t stop them from discussing it. “Although I don’t understand what it is, it just feels like it’s awesome.”
"Professor Wang Hao's research is very impressive."
"Professor Wang Hao is really a great master. He is only 26 years old and has achieved so many achievements. He has already begun to challenge top mathematical problems and has achieved certain results."
"From now on, I would like to call Professor Wang Hao 'god'!" "
"King God?"
"God King!"
Wang Hao didn't even expect that he would get an extra account inexplicably, and it sounded like he couldn't bear it at all.
When he was dining in the Capital University cafeteria at noon, he was surrounded by many students. Fortunately, the students were very well-educated and did not come around to disturb him. Most of them discussed in low voices from a distance.
Things will be different after returning to the hotel in the afternoon. Many reporters are already waiting there, and they must take advantage of the heat to interview.
After Wang Hao simply answered two questions, he found that the questions were asked one after another, so he found an opportunity and ran into the hotel.
The heat dropped off a bit the next day, but there were still reporters squatting in front of the hotel.
Wang Hao quickly got out of the way.
He bought a temporary ticket and flew back to Xihai City directly.
The feeling of being a mathematics star is not so good. The main reason is that Wang Hao does not make money with his personal image. He is not a real star, but a pure scholar.
Scholars do not need popularity.
If you only accept interviews occasionally, it feels good to think about being in the news, but too many interviews will be a bit annoying.
This time Wang Hao went back by himself because Zhu Peng would stay in the capital for a few more days.
After getting off the plane from Xihai Airport, Wang Hao breathed a long sigh of relief. After walking out of the airport, he saw the person who came to pick him up, who was specially sent by the school.
Wang Hao won the first class in natural science and was constantly popular among public opinion. Naturally, the school took it very seriously. They even sent two security guards to help.
However, Wang Hao purchased the flight ticket temporarily, and his trip was very unexpected. There were still reporters waiting for the interview, but there were only two of them.
Wang Hao did not accept the interview, not because he was a big name, but because the other party was an entertainment reporter. If it were an academic reporter or a regular TV reporter, he would definitely have accepted the interview.
The school has already prepared an exclusive interview.
Wang Hao went back to rest for a while, and then accepted a formal interview the next day. He won the first prize in natural science, which naturally attracted much attention.
Putting aside the issue of public opinion, there are also many reporters who want to interview Wang Hao.
The weight of the first prize in natural sciences is completely different from that of the Chen Shengshen Mathematics Prize.
The Chen Shengshen Mathematics Prize has an average of one winner per year, while the First Prize in Natural Sciences has only had three mathematics prizewinners for decades.
The meanings of the two awards are also different.
The Chen Shengshen Mathematics Award is only an award of the Mathematics Society, while the Natural Science Award is a national-level award, which represents a huge contribution to national-level scientific research. The nature of the affirmation is much greater than the award itself.
Xihai University also attaches great importance to it.
A special meeting was held within the school and it was decided to carry out a special promotion for Wang Hao from a fourth-level professor to a second-level professor.
This is no longer something that the school can decide unilaterally, but must be reported to the province or even to the national department.
Wang Hao won the first prize in natural science and was promoted to a second-level professor, so there was no problem.
In fact, this award is worthy of a first-level professor, but Wang Hao is too young and his teaching experience is completely insufficient.
It is very difficult to be promoted to the level of full professor. There are many corresponding regulations for each level of promotion.
Teaching years are also one of them.
To put it bluntly, a professor is a teaching position, and naturally there are requirements for teaching years. It is already quite remarkable to be specially promoted to a second-level professor.
As a full professor, each level up is very difficult, even higher than all levels below associate professor combined.
Many PhD graduates from prestigious universities can serve as associate professors when entering a university, but they want to graduate from fourth-level professorships to
Being promoted to a third-level professor may not be achieved in a lifetime.
Not to mention, most of the professors at the next level, let alone the second-level professors, are simply out of reach.
First-level professor is the highest level, and the lowest qualification is to be evaluated as an academician. Many people have already been evaluated as academicians before they can be promoted to first-level professor.
After Wang Hao returned to Xihai University, except for accepting interviews with some reporters, his life was still very leisurely.
It’s the end of the semester again, and several courses have ended.
He relaxed for a few days.
Then I went to the physics laboratory, because the new equipment and materials in the laboratory were already in place and the experiments were ready to start.
Wang Hao still attaches great importance to the physics laboratory project.
When leaving Capital University, Wu Hui also talked to him about the issue of communication gravity research. The other two large laboratories have already started the first round of experiments, and have even entered the second round of experiments, while the physics laboratory has not yet officially Start experimenting.
This time gap is about half a month.
"Normally speaking, for this kind of comparative study, results can be obtained after more than a dozen experiments." Wu Hui said with certainty, "No more than twenty times at most. A dozen experiments can provide a lot of data." "
"Based on the efficiency of the superconducting laboratory, it is estimated that it can be completed in three months at the earliest and no more than half a year at the latest."
These are Wu Hui's original words.
Wang Hao also felt a sense of urgency. Knowing that the physics laboratory was ready, he came over immediately to participate in experimental research.
Physics Laboratory, Director's Office.
He Yi was busy organizing information and notifying everyone to prepare for the meeting. He asked Wang Hao, "Should we start today? However, the expert team from the Science Foundation is coming, why don't we entertain them?"
Wang Hao said nonchalantly, "What are we entertaining? They are just going through the motions. Our research is the most important."
An expert team from the Science Foundation is here to inspect.
In fact, what they sent was not a team of experts, just a few people to the physics laboratory to take a look, record and go through the motions.
The project has been decided and will definitely be approved.
However, the rules are like this. Before reviewing a large project, the Science Foundation must send a team of experts.
Wang Hao was not in the mood to entertain people from the foundation. He quickly asked everyone from the laboratory to come over and organized a discussion meeting to first demonstrate how to conduct the experiment.
As for the Science Foundation, it is too slow to review the grant, and it says that the grant will not be made until next year. Who knows whether the research will be completed by then?
Wang Hao didn't care at all.
When the expert team from the Science Foundation arrived at Xihai University, they were embarrassed to find that no one was there to entertain them.
The person who came to greet him was Zhu Jianhua. There was no one in the physics laboratory.
"Although we are just going through the motions, this is too much." Someone from the expert group couldn't help but complain.
No one came to entertain them in the physics laboratory, but they had to go there anyway.
Fan Qingxue is the leader of the expert team, and he is also the only superconducting expert among the visitors.
In fact, because they were just sending people for a formality, the Science Foundation did not send out "experts" at all, just a few ordinary staff members, some of whom were not even physics majors.
Fan Qingxue was specially appointed by Wu Hui. He wanted Fan Qingxue to come and help the physics laboratory, provide special guidance on experiments, and even stay to help, in order to prevent the physics laboratory from "losing too miserably."
The other two institutions that did not receive funding from the foundation completed their research quickly and efficiently, while the physics laboratory had no results to speak of. As a result, the foundation funded the physics laboratory, which is not good to hear.
Even if it is an informal project, it must at least be acceptable.
Fan Qingxue complained a little that no one came to entertain him in the physics laboratory.
When I arrived at the physics laboratory and saw how busy the laboratory was, my complaints in my heart eased a little, "They are probably too busy."
I was busy and forgot. "
That's what he thought.
When we arrived at the physics laboratory, we were greeted by someone.
Zhang Feng was responsible for entertaining the expert group, taking them to visit the physics laboratory, and then introduced the preparations for the experiment.
Because I already have experimental experience, the laboratory preparation is relatively sufficient.
Fan Qingxue felt confident and asked, "Are you ready to start the experiment? It seems that the experiment will be conducted today?"
He was referring to the lab being busy.
"I don't know either." Zhang Feng shook his head, "It still depends on Professor Wang Hao."
As they were talking, they heard someone shout, "Zhang Feng, get ready for the meeting!"
"coming!"
Zhang Feng replied, looked at the expert group apologetically, and then trotted to the conference room.
People from the expert group simply went to the conference room.
After entering the conference room, Fan Qingxue finally saw Wang Hao. He had just wondered why he didn't see the person in charge. They were all in the conference room. He couldn't help but mutter in his heart, "Are you avoiding us?"
Because the meeting had not officially started, Fan Qingxue said hello to Wang Hao, then walked over and whispered, "Academician Wu asked me to help."
"Thanks!"
Wang Hao thought that the expert group was just there to go through the motions. Unexpectedly, there was one of his own among them, and he suddenly became more enthusiastic. "We are really busy today. We have to prepare to start demonstrations, and there are also experiments. I had to prepare, so I didn’t have time to entertain you, I’m really sorry.”
"It's okay, Professor Wang, let's listen to the meeting as well, won't we hinder it?"
"That's so welcome!"
Wang Hao enthusiastically greeted several people from the expert group to sit next to him.
Before the meeting started, Fan Qingxue chatted with Wang Hao for a few more words, "Are you having a meeting to allocate experimental work?"
"We are studying theory together." Wang Hao said.
"ah?"
Fan Qingxue was a little stunned when he heard it. He subconsciously said, "What theory is there to study? Just conduct experiments and compare the data."
"no."
Wang Hao shook his head and said, "The theoretical meeting must be held. We need to demonstrate how to conduct experiments with maximum efficiency and strive to draw conclusions with the least number of experiments."
"..."
Fan Qingxue felt that the research methods mentioned by Wang Hao were beyond the scope of his knowledge, and he couldn't help but wonder, "Is it because Professor Wang Hao is doing mathematics research?"
"That's right!"
"He doesn't know how to study physics or superconductivity. No wonder Academician Wu asked me to come!"
Fan Qingxue felt that he understood it completely. He immediately said, "Professor Wang, Academician Wu asked me to help. I will make some suggestions, and you will allocate experimental work, and then directly conduct experiments, conduct continuous experiments, and compare data. Naturally, You will get the result.”
Wang Hao shook his head, "Professor Fan, I said, we need to study the theory first."
He thought for a while and made an explanation, "Let's put it this way, Professor Fan. Do you think it is possible for us to conduct research in a normal way and do research faster and more efficiently than in the superconducting laboratory?"
"this……"
Fan Qingxue really wanted to say "the possibility is zero", but he said more implicitly, "It's a little possible."
"no way!"
Wang Hao said with certainty, "There is a big gap between us and the superconducting laboratory in terms of personnel, experience level, R&D funding, equipment, etc. Therefore, if we want to surpass them, we cannot use conventional methods."
Fan Qingxue thought it made sense and couldn't help but nodded.
Wang Hao continued, "That's why we need to do theoretical demonstrations, and we need to find the most efficient experimental method."
"Uh~~"
Fan Qingxue was a little stunned when he heard this, and he found that he could not refute it at all.
However, theoretical arguments
?
Are there any theoretical arguments from comparative experiments? Isn’t this just a waste of time?
However, Fan Qingxue found that he could not refute. After all, what Wang Hao said was very reasonable, so he simply sat aside.
At the same time, I couldn’t help but think, “No wonder Academician Wu asked me to come, it’s so unprofessional!”
"What other theoretical arguments are there..."
"And you don't listen to advice, you don't listen to advice at all!"
"It seems that they still have to suffer a failure before they realize that any theoretical argument has no meaning at all!"
(Ask for monthly ticket)
