Although it was still during the holiday, after the sample issue of the paper was mailed to Xilin University of Technology, Xu Dajiang arranged the review and defense within the school and the review and defense during the holiday.

Basically it can be understood as just going through a process.

Because the previous application for completion of the project had already been submitted under Xu Dajiang’s reminder.

The "Annals of Mathematics" has confirmed the quality of this kind of paper for school professors, and the defense is nothing more than proving that the paper was completed independently by the authors.

Since no faculty member of the School of Mathematics of Xilin University of Technology has published a paper in the "Annual Review of Mathematics", the professor responsible for the defense of this kind of on-campus project is somewhat lacking in confidence.

After casually preparing a few questions, Qiao Ze and Liu Chenfeng answered them casually, and the process was completed.

Qiao Ze and Liu Chenfeng were not even invited to the celebration banquet, but Li Jiangao was invited to celebrate.

Qiao Ze didn't like this meal, and the professors wouldn't force it.

The biggest effect of this kind of dinner is to bring each other closer.

Calling Qiao Ze on such an occasion made everyone wary when talking, so it was really unnecessary.

After applying for the old subjects, the new subjects were naturally approved quickly.

It's not Qiao Ze who's anxious, but the college's.

After learning from Su Mucheng that Qiao Ze had been in contact with Princeton University, Xu Dajiang had been thinking about nothing more than food these days.

Although Qiao Ze's response to the other party was very strong and he liked it very much, people's ideas are always changing after all.

It would be good to have a way to tie Qiao Ze to Shuyuan.

So the college here approves very quickly.

Even though it is during the holidays, we must hurry up and get approval for overtime work.

The efficiency is so high that it can only be said to be breathtaking.

In two days, Xu Dajiang personally took the application submitted by Qiao Ze and completed all the procedures.

The funding for this project is still 500,000 yuan.

It’s not that I don’t want to give more, but if I want more, I need to go through more approval procedures, which is too troublesome.

However, these procedures can be approved during the holidays, but if it involves transfers, you still have to wait until after the National Day holiday.

Of course, Qiao Ze is not short of money, so it doesn't matter.

Xu Dajiang's series of operations probably gave Qiao Ze the illusion that the academy's project approvals were extremely fast.

This is probably the reason why many unworthy projects are selected.

But there are also inefficiencies.

For example, the expert application he submitted has not been officially responded to yet. It's already October, and the communication review will begin soon. Projects that have passed the preliminary review at this stage may be canceled at this stage.

Fortunately, when discussing the problem with Zhang Hongcai, the mathematics professor at Yanbei University simply mentioned to him that his application had been approved by the mathematics group and had been reported to the fund management committee. As for the final result, It is no longer within their control.

In addition, Zhang Hongcai also hinted that Uncle Li's project would most likely be passed, at least before the review at the meeting.

The words were not so serious, but Qiao Ze could understand the subtext.

He also became quieter.

In this case, there is no need to worry. The conference review is in November. Even if he is not rated as an expert, with the help of these professors, he will most likely be able to pass.

If he really couldn't pass, at least someone would tell him who opposed his mentor's project.

Besides, Qiao Ze also had his own matters to attend to. Since the school quickly approved his new project, he planned to send out the paper he had prepared before.

No way, not long after this proposition was determined, Mr. Cheng from Apple came to Xilin University of Technology. While donating the scholarship, he also gave Qiao Ze some inspiration and asked him to think through the issue of this unity proof. , and also used supercomputer to conduct multiple verifications, and the results were perfect.

These days, he has begun to think about the ultimate proposition of the mathematics stage. When resting his brain, Qiao Ze finished writing the paper on the new topic.

Because there was no need to rush this time, it took Qiao Ze about a week to complete this more than 60-page paper.

There was no other way, so Uncle Li suggested that he try to write down the process in more detail.

The delay to this point was really not because of the research funds, but mainly because Qiao Ze felt that he had to fulfill all his previous promises.

After all, he promised Liu Chenfeng to take him with him for the project he applied for this time.

As for the unit of submission, it is naturally the "Annals of Mathematics".

There was no other reason, mainly because Qiao Ze felt that he and Lot Dugan were very compatible.

Others didn't know why the official website of "Annals of Mathematics" promoted Qiao Ze's paper, but Qiao Ze understood the moment he learned the news.

This is a tacit understanding.

And recently, Qiao Ze also noticed that the little old man paid a price for his willfulness. So this submission is somewhat of a repayment.

This is probably the most meaningful thing Qiao Ze did during this National Day holiday.

But as usual, Qiao Ze didn't tell anyone about such a small matter as submitting an article.



Lot Dugan is certainly a little annoyed these days.

After the magazine was released, the electronic version of Qiao Ze's paper was posted directly to the website.

The number of downloads is staggering.

It’s not just the appeal of the name Qiao Ze.

The key is that being able to get such a level of publicity from the Annals of Mathematics has made too many people have great expectations and left many people unconvinced.

Being able to construct a causal learning framework through group theory is enough to cement Qiao Ze's reputation as a genius.

There is also news that the m60p's group intelligence voice system has been upgraded, which was born out of Qiao Ze's theory, and has even been proven by many papers published in succession.

But application and number theory are two fields after all.

It can be seen from the title that the paper Qiao Ze published in the "Annals of Mathematics" is in the field of pure number theory.

Moreover, it was listed on the official website for more than half a month to promote, which is something that has been rare in many years.

No matter how difficult it is to publish papers in the "Annals of Mathematics", at least 6 magazines publish about 80 articles every year, but those who can enjoy this level of publicity may not be able to get one in a few years.

Therefore, on the day when the electronic version of Qiao Ze’s paper was released online, the number of downloads was astonishing, reaching more than 3,000 times.

Don't underestimate this number.

According to statistics, there are only more than 40,000 first-class mathematicians in the world, and they are scattered in different research subdivisions.

If there is less research specific to number theory.

For mathematicians who are interested in a specific direction, the number three thousand is already very scary.

A few days are enough for everyone to read Qiao Ze's paper and then give an evaluation.

"Annals of Mathematics" or the pressure of little old man Lot Dugan also comes from this.

Fame is a double-edged sword after all.

While people are convinced, they will also put forward higher requirements for the journal itself.

There is no doubt that the vast majority of people still believe that Qiao Ze's paper meets the requirements for publication in the "Annals of Mathematics", and it is even considered outstanding among this year's papers. After all, Qiao Ze has proposed some new mathematical tools, and there is still a lot of useful information.

But having the "Annals of Mathematics" publish its official website to promote this paper for half a month made many mathematicians find it incomprehensible.

You didn’t reach that level, you know?

If Qiao Ze's paper is qualified to be pre-promoted on the official website of "Annals of Mathematics" for more than half a month, let alone previous years, there will be at least seven to eight papers this year worthy of such promotion.

So why should I recommend this article instead of other famous math figures?

The mathematician is upset, he really knows how to be serious.

Not only direct criticism on Facebook, but also the official email of "Annals of Mathematics" and Lot Dugan's private email received many questions during this period.

In fact, Lot Dugan himself didn't care much about this.

The responses given were also very uniform.

"Before you question, please pay attention to the author's age. Qiao is only eighteen years old! Yes, if you, an eighteen-year-old, can write a paper of this level, I don't mind using the little power in my hands to fight for you. To the position of advance publicity in the Annals of Mathematics. Do I need to remind you why the age limit for the Fields Medal is 40 years old?”

Not surprisingly, Lot Dugan’s formulaic response email was directly posted on Facebook.

Then came another wave of criticism.

To sum it up, it can be summed up in three words: “unprofessional”!

Many people understand Lot Dugan's little thoughts, and they also understand the level of talent that an eighteen-year-old child can produce such a paper.

But that doesn’t mean everyone can accept this explanation.

Do academics, do academics.

If Princeton wants to poach people and please a future mathematical genius, why should it waste the professionalism of the Annals of Mathematics for publicity?

If Qiao Ze writes a paper worthy of publicity in the future, everyone will naturally have no objection.

But this paper just didn’t meet the accepted publicity standards. This has nothing to do with the age of the main author!

This view is obviously not wrong.

But in the eyes of Lot Dugan, these people are just sour. He didn't bother to pay attention.

However, the "Annals of Mathematics" does not belong to Lot Dugan after all, he is just the editor-in-chief.

So many people started to complain directly, and now even the mailboxes of Princeton University and the nearby Institute for Advanced Study were blocked.

Lot Dugan is indeed a senior mathematician, but he is not the only senior mathematician.

Not to mention Lot Dugen's somewhat extreme behavior, which made him have almost as many friends as enemies.

In short, while everyone is celebrating the National Day, the world's mathematical community is also quarreling over Qiao Ze's paper.

Qiao Ze also knew this news.

Although he rarely went to the Internet, Lot Dugan kept in touch with him by email.

The old man also complained in front of Qiao Ze.

He even threatened to repay the favor in the mail.

"Oh, Joe, have you seen it? In order to support you, I am making an enemy of the whole world! This is really a very, very terrible thing! So you are so cruel that you don't even consider coming to Princeton to study that wonderful thing with me. A subject? Trust me, as long as you come here once, you will find that this is your holy place."

Another person would probably be so stimulated by this statement that he would get goosebumps all over his body.

Fortunately, Qiao Ze didn't have so many messy thoughts and ideas in his mind.

In fact, in some aspects, Qiao Ze has always been frighteningly naive, just like if there are study materials written in his folder, it must be study materials. Even if you click on videos, they are still learning materials.

Chen Yiwen has the most say on this matter.

Because he was really 100% sure in some way that Qiao Ze was so tall that he had never even seen a special product of the island country.

The saucy words that would make many young boys smile knowingly, but telling Qiao Ze only resulted in a confused look from him.

That look seemed to ask again, "Are you seriously ill?"

For this reason, Chen Yiwen even sympathized with Su Mucheng from the bottom of her heart for three seconds. Thinking that he thought the two of them were really going to get married in the future, Su Mucheng might be embarrassed if she wanted to teach Qiao Ze something.

So Qiao Ze rejected Lot Dugan's invitation as always. Specifically, after briefly chatting about a few mathematical problems, he added a sentence at the end of the email.

"Lotte, thank you for your support, but I don't want to go. However, the new topic has been completed, and I have uploaded the new paper through the submission system of "Annals of Mathematics". I hope my paper can be helpful to your research. "

However, it was already two o'clock in the afternoon after Qiao Ze finished writing this email and clicked send. The damn time difference made the old man opposite him sleep soundly.



The town of Princeton, USA.

The weather in the town in October was very jumpy, maybe it was more than ten degrees the day before.

But after a spell of rainy weather passes, the temperature drops to single digits.

When he woke up in the morning, listening to the sound of raindrops coming from the window, Lot Dugan felt a little gloomy.

As people get older, they often prefer sunny weather.

Especially in the fall in Princeton, even if the sky is clear, the temperature is only 18 or 9 degrees. Even if you stand directly under the sun, you will not feel hot, only warm.

Get up and wash up as usual. My wife has already prepared breakfast, a sandwich and a glass of milk.

He threw the cat off the dining table and started enjoying breakfast.

Today's sandwich also came with a fried egg, which was delicious.

When he went out, Lot Dugan took a big umbrella with him.

The advantage is that it can hide his whole body under the umbrella, so that he can feel confident and not say hello to anyone along the way.

There's nothing he can do about it, he's really not in a pretty mood.

Just walked into his office.

When I turn on the computer out of habit, the pleasant email notification sound rang through the office.

I received a dozen more emails yesterday.

No need to ask, a small number of them are from former students to express condolences, and some express dissatisfaction.

And Qiao Ze’s.

The time difference makes it difficult for the two to communicate in real time.

After all, both of them still have their own things to do.

After clicking on the email and looking at it, Lot Dugan blinked, then took off his glasses, wiped them, and confirmed again.

Ignoring the nonsense about Qiao Ze's rejection of the invitation, he focused on the second half.

Have you completed a new topic?

The paper has been submitted?

Well, one paper a month?

How many babies did his cat give birth to last time?

Thinking of strange things in his mind, Lot Dugan did not reply. Instead, he opened the paper submission system with a suspicious attitude. He quickly found the paper submitted by Qiao Ze and fell into deep thought.
