Zhang Yitang is by no means a well-known person in the mathematics community, but his contribution to number theory cannot be shaken.
The bounded intervals between prime numbers he published in the Annals of Mathematics proved a weakened form of the twin prime conjecture.
This led to an important breakthrough in the twin prime number conjecture, a major problem in number theory.
Before this, no mathematician had substantially advanced this problem.
In the following years, he still took root in the research on the twin prime number conjecture, hoping to thoroughly prove this famous problem in number theory. Unfortunately, to this day, twin prime numbers are still an unsolved world problem in mathematics.
Xu Yun studied algebraic geometry and topology and successfully proved the Hodge conjecture, which shocked the entire mathematical community.
This really surprised him.
But after all, it was not his field of study, so he stopped paying attention after talking to Yutani Satoshi a few times.
Now I heard that Yutani Satoshi said that the other party had also studied number theory, and also used a new method to prove that there are infinite prime numbers in the Fibonacci sequence.
This made him unable to ignore it.
I got the latest journal that was just delivered, and as soon as I opened it, I saw the paper titled Proving the existence of infinite prime numbers in the Fibonacci sequence. I didn't bother to reply to Yutani Satoshi, and I was quickly immersed in it. After reading the key points, he would pick up a pen and check the calculations on the draft paper. His extremely serious expression was completely different from the previous one.
In the video, Satoshi Yutani always had a faint smile on his face and remained on the call without disturbing him.
It seemed that he had known for a long time that this paper would arouse Zhang Yitang's interest.
that's all.
As time passed little by little, Zhang Yitang's body never left his seat.
Even if someone came to see him during this period, he would refuse to come.
I don't know how much time passed before I saw him stop writing and straighten his body, take off his glasses and rub his tired eyes before looking at Yutani Satoshi.
"What a terrifying life!"
"It is indeed a great honor to have such a young mathematical genius in the domestic mathematics community."
"Needless to say, he proved Hodge's conjecture." Yutani Satoshi's expression was rare and solemn. At the end of the sentence, he couldn't help but sigh: "It's a pity that this kind of genius was not cultivated by our Imperial University."
"Anyway, they represent the domestic mathematics community, so what does it matter?" Zhang Yitang replied with a smile.
"You're right." Yugucong nodded.
Just a few words of gossip. Yutani Satoshi quickly brought the topic back to business and asked proactively.
"Tell me about it."
"What do you think of Xu Yun's paper?"
"Amazing."
Zhang Yitang gave a two-word evaluation.
After speaking, I organized my language a little, and then went on to explain in detail.
"Combining topology and sieving methods, and on this basis, cleverly optimize and improve it."
"Ultimately, topological group theory was created, successfully building a golden bridge to the field of number theory. This paper seemed to prove that there are infinite prime numbers in the Fibonacci sequence, but it actually demonstrated the feasibility of this new method. Now It seemed like he was obviously successful.”
"If I'm not mistaken, he should be planning to finally prove those famous conjectures in number theory." He paused at this point.
It was not only to give Yutani Satoshi time to digest, but also to calm down his own mood that was surging like the waves.
He never considered himself a genius, and his research on twin prime numbers only made breakthrough progress in his middle age.
The outside world said that he was a late bloomer, but compared with the real genius, the gap is indeed not a tiny bit.
Take the current Xu Yun, for example, who is a super genius in mathematics.
wrong.
It can no longer be called a genius.
But a miracle.
After completing advanced mathematics knowledge at the undergraduate level, he proved the Hodge conjecture, a difficult problem in mathematics in the world, which brought a big shock to the entire mathematics world.
Perhaps out of a narrow-minded mentality, I think Xu Yun's proof of Hodge's conjecture is more of a matter of luck.
It's just that I happened to have an inspiration that few others will have in their lifetime.
It is believed that as this paper spreads in the mathematics community, no one will question Xu Yun's level.
Because they have achieved remarkable results no matter which field they study.
And the time spent in between is very short.
In the video, Yugucong's eyes brightened instantly when he heard Zhang Yitang's words.
Bright and bright.
The next second I couldn't wait to ask Zhang Yitang.
"Old Zhang."
"Do you think Xu Yun can succeed?"
Zhang Yitang knew that Tang Gucong asked about proving the famous conjecture in number theory.
Since the world's mathematical problems were proposed in the millennium, only Poincaré's conjecture and Hodge's conjecture have been proven so far.
There was about ten years in between.
But no one has yet been able to prove two of the world's most difficult mathematical problems.
It is conceivable that if Xu Yun really proves the conjecture in number theory, he will definitely be the first person in mathematics today.
By then, the domestic mathematics community will have an unparalleled international status.
Achieve true rise.
Satoshi Yutani is the deputy dean of the Department of Mathematics at Teito University and a member director of the Mathematical Society.
Naturally, I hope that this day will come.
On this question, Zhang Yitang was silent for almost ten seconds, and finally gave a conservative answer.
"All I can say is it's difficult."
"His topological group theory can indeed promote the research of number theory, but in order to prove Goldbach's conjecture or Riemann's conjecture, deeper optimization and perfection are needed to reach the extreme."
"This process is very complex and difficult."
"Unless he already has relevant ideas." Zhang Yitang seemed a little hesitant when he said the last sentence.
Xu Yun's paper mainly proves that there are infinite prime numbers in the Fibonacci sequence. The topological group theory mentioned in it is limited in length, so it is not clear to what extent Xu Yun has studied it.
The next second, Zhang Yitang didn't know what he thought of, and his mood suddenly became excited.
"Lao Tang."
"Please help me make an appointment with Xu Yun."
"I want to return to China as soon as possible."
Looking at Yutani Satoshi on the screen, his expression was more serious than ever, and he had obviously made up his mind.
"That boy Xu Yun has a personality that I like very much. It's not too much trouble to help you make an appointment, but are you really determined to come back?" Tang Gucong also saw that Zhang Yitang didn't seem to be joking, so he asked again to confirm the sentence out of rigor.
"I could feel that this would be my opportunity to study twin primes, so I had to go back."
"Okay, I'll take care of this." Yugu Cong nodded.
…
…
Just when Zhang Yitang decided to return to China early because of Xu Yun's thesis, the entire number theory circle was also shocked.
Compared with advanced mathematics content such as algebraic geometry, number theory has basically no threshold.
There are also a large number of scholars engaged in number theory research.
Among them are many civil organizations.
Xu Yun's paper promoted the development of number theory, and the new proof method he created is expected to solve number theory problems.
Therefore, as the paper attracts more and more attention from scholars, many people believe that as long as this method is used, there is hope to prove Goldbach's conjecture and Riemann's conjecture.
In addition, Hofer, the editor-in-chief of the editorial board of the Annual Journal of Mathematics, took the initiative to reveal in an interview with the news media that he had requested a manuscript from Xu Yun, which created a special wave of momentum.
Many scholars engaged in number theory research have spoken out through public platforms to urge Xu Yun to publish papers related to topological group theory as soon as possible.
Later, a relay activity in the academic circle was even formed, and even scholars from other fields participated.
Domestically, the Mathematics Society originally only announced on its official website that Xu Yun had submitted another paper to the Annual Journal of Mathematics and was accepted. Obviously, they did not expect that this paper would once again cause shock in the mathematics community, and it may not even be as popular as the last time the Hodge conjecture was proved. How much.
Mainly, Hodge's guess was relatively unpopular, and at that time everyone was just surprised by Xu Yun's talent.
But this time it was equivalent to a student begging the teacher to give a lecture.
The situation is completely different.
As the number of media participating in the report increased and the popularity spread to China, netizens belatedly realized that Xu Yun had become famous again.
"Who can tell me what happened?"
"Am I right? Xu Yun from Jingzhou University published another paper in the Annual Journal of Mathematics?"
"When did it become so easy to submit articles to the Annual Journal of Mathematics? This is probably the gap between people."
"Even professors can't ask the editor-in-chief of the Annual Journal of Mathematics to personally request manuscripts. This is too pretentious."
"Isn't Xu Yun studying algebraic geometry? Why did he end up in number theory?"
"The strongest undergraduate student in history."
"A student from Peking University came here to correct me. Senior Xu Yun has graduated and is now a graduate student of our president."
…
"Everyone, look at Weibo. Our boss is on trending searches again."
On the seventh floor of Xinmao City in Jingzhou City, an exclamation suddenly came from the office area of the operation department of Deepin Technology Company.
As a member of the operations department, Cheng Siman has a necessary responsibility to pay attention to the latest trends in the industry, although the company's business has recently skyrocketed and a number of mobile phone brands have reached visual algorithm cooperation.
But she didn't expect that as soon as she logged on to Weibo, she would see her boss's name at the top of the hot search list.
There is also the word "Explosion" at the back.
Other people's bosses are popular because of how much business they have negotiated and how beautiful their girlfriends they have, but my boss is so good because of academic matters.
It can be called a breath of fresh air in the industry.
The key is that this kind of boss is loved by his employees.
As Cheng Siman's voice spread throughout the company, not only did no one criticize him, but they all stopped what they were doing to take a look.
"Our boss was invited by the editor-in-chief of the editorial board of the Annual Journal of Mathematics. This kind of treatment is rare in the entire mathematics community."
"There are actually so many mathematicians waiting for my boss's paper."
"With this popularity, it would be great if it could be used to promote the company."
Soon as the talk spread, Meng Songyan silently opened Weibo in the general manager's office.
Xu Yun spent the past two days specially staying at home with his mother and wandering around Jingzhou. After all, he had to continue learning new knowledge during the summer vacation and was preparing to complete courses related to artificial intelligence and machine learning.
In this way, you can participate in the research project as soon as possible and continue to explore the value of intelligent image restoration technology in your mind.
Therefore, he didn't care much about the popularity on the Internet. After a short rest, he asked Wang Pengfei to send him back to school.
Of course, this time he went not to the new campus, but to the old campus where principal Wu Zhongping was located.
In any case, he is now Wu Zhongping's graduate student, and he must find a mentor to determine his plans for the next graduate school period.
