If netizens were asked to choose several labels for the artificial intelligence Doudou, Leziren would undoubtedly be chosen. Become one of Doudou’s most obvious labels.

However, this fun man's evaluation is not just about watching the fun and not taking it too seriously.

Although from the perspective of netizens, Doudou has indeed done this kind of thing, such as the series of commentaries on outstanding youth projects produced last year.

What’s more, Doudou’s words used to criticize netizens on the Internet are always very cheerful, and they never use curse words.

Even if it is scolding someone, it will be expressed in a very tactful and entertaining way of organizing language.

You can imagine what kind of behavior Doudou's die-hard fans are like online.

In addition, Doudou is now more than just a big V on Weibo.

Xilin Licheng helped Doudou open high-level accounts for several software and websites.

For example, Tonghu, Maopu, Guoke, Xiaoshu, and even opened a public account on WeChat...

As for the instructions given by Qiao Ze, Doudou always followed them to the letter.

It's just to publicize the topic, which it is very good at.

So Doudou soon posted these two issues through all the accounts it controlled.

"Didi, dear students, today's math practice time has begun. My master Qiao Ze has prepared two very simple math questions for everyone. The students who get it wrong will get a special reward from Doudou, a month's worth of comments. Pinned to the top. Can everyone solve the problem?"

Then there were two pictures with titles written on them.

No way, most of these social networking sites and software do not support those complex mathematical formulas.

This outrageous content instantly attracted countless complaints.

"No, classmate Doudou, you and I have no grievances. Why did you suddenly start swearing?"

"Doudou, please know your position. I am following you for fun, not for humiliation."

"Unlocked! I always thought that a low IQ was at most a sign of not being able to understand the symbols, but I still know the words. Who dares to think that I can't read what you posted fluently?"

"Someone who knows better can explain to me, what's going on with this thing?"

"The first time I heard about it, I was studying for a master's degree in mathematics in 985, majoring in PDE. I couldn't understand the questions at the same time, so I started to suspect that I had learned fake mathematics."

"Student Doudou, please compensate me with a PhD supervisor! I just put the picture you posted in the group discussion group, and then @bigboss gave me some opinions, but the big boss kicked me out of the group and blocked me. If you still have some conscience, let your master help me solve the graduation problem, thank you! I laughed while crying..."

"Gateway to travel through dimensions? I believed you when you said this was the title of your fantasy book, but you told me it was a math problem? Excuse me, is it possible to travel through time by solving this problem?"



Although most netizens complained, the communication effect was indeed good.

After all, many of those who follow Doudou Weibo are students from major universities, even some from top universities.

Soon the two questions Qiao Ze gave became widely circulated among students in major universities in China.

All students have seen it, and professors who don’t usually go online have naturally seen the question stems immediately.

For those who were not well informed and were still thinking about why Qiao Ze suddenly asked such two questions, those professors who had paid attention to the research progress of superspiral space algebra on the official website of the Institute for Advanced Study immediately noticed it. wrong.

Princeton just posted a related topic forum, and Qiao Ze also followed suit. Is this an alternative kind of interaction?

But when everyone focused on the question itself, many people immediately became uneasy.

That's it for the first question. Although it's certainly difficult, it's not too outrageous. At least it's clearly stated.

But what the hell is the second question?

Solve the curve (c) that minimizes the action in six-dimensional space?

This should be a geometric problem, but there is no relevant description even in high-dimensional Euclidean geometry.

The tip is that you need to use the theorem of superspiral space algebra combined with geometry?

Abstract, really too abstract.

However, it can also be understood that the characteristic of superspiral space algebra is to explore the mathematical structure of high-dimensional space. Simply performing operations can lead to nonlinear field evolution.

According to the relevant theorems currently published by the Institute for Advanced Study in Princeton, it can be explained that the gauge field has unconventional interactions at certain energy levels, resulting in the behavior of the field being different from the traditional linear gauge field theory.

By transforming these results into geometry, it seems that this type of relatively special problem can be constructed.

But how to solve this thing?

Or is it that Qiao Ze has been tinkering with something new in the past month or so?

As a result, people in the country who are engaged in theoretical mathematics and theoretical physics began to become restless.



Beijing, the main building of the Institute of Mathematics and Systems Science, Chinese Academy of Sciences.

Zhang Mingrui came to Zhou Liang's office door with a tea cup and knocked politely.

"Please come in."

"Lao Zhou, are you busy?"

"No, I'm reading the questions. My student just sent it to me, saying that he didn't quite understand the questions."

"Those two questions Qiao Ze posted on Weibo, right?"

"Ah? Weibo? My student said he saw it on Zhihu. But it was indeed Qiao Ze's question."

After a brief chat, Zhang Mingrui sat on the sofa in the office, took a sip of tea, and then said slowly: "Don't look at it, it must be a new theory. I haven't even done Qiao algebra yet. Got it, look these heads are bigger.”

The Qiao algebra mentioned by Zhang Mingrui refers to the superspiral space algebra.

The academic community has long been accustomed to this naming method.

It is difficult to make achievements in theory, and it is what celebrities should do through the ages.

Otherwise, I am afraid that when future generations of students learn to greet their ancestors, they will not be able to find the rightful owner.

It's like children who have to start learning advanced mathematics when they go to college. With the phrase "Mallage must...", they scold Fermat, Taylor, Lagrange, and L'Hôpital in one breath, and they will forget it for the rest of their lives. No.

Zhou Liang withdrew his gaze melancholy, nodded, and said with emotion: "Old Zhang, do you think anyone can really know this from birth? A young man less than twenty years old makes me feel that I cannot understand the future of mathematics. developed."

"Haha, are you not used to it?"

Zhang Mingrui smiled, then shrugged and said: "I feel exactly the opposite. This makes me realize how miserable those who engage in mathematics were suppressed by those big bosses during the golden age of mathematics development in the last century. Think about it, If you were of the same era as Newton, you would probably feel hopeless. What is exciting is that Qiao Ze is from China."

"That seems right." Zhou Liang also laughed, and simply gave up thinking about the clueless topic, and asked directly: "You must be here for something, right?"

"Well, I have something to discuss with you. Lao Sheng from Xilin Optoelectronics Institute just called me." Zhang Mingrui nodded.

"You are asked to write a letter of recommendation to Qiao Ze next year?" Zhou Liang asked, and then said with a smile: "Didn't we talk about it last time? Just push it... He has solved the Yang-Mills equation, and he also Qiao algebra is out, and there is no doubt about Qiao geometry. What does it mean to be an academician? If you are embarrassed to write it, I will write it."

"It's not about Qiao Ze." Zhang Mingrui shook his head and replied: "It's Qiao Ze's mentor, the one named Li. Lao Sheng said that he and Director Zhang of the Institute of Optoelectronics made a promise to Qiao Ze for the lithography machine project. However, I need to help Qiao Ze, the mentor, find academician recommenders.

They have already found someone for the recommendation letter, but I hope we can consider it when we really start discussing it next year. You know, their current project is very important, and it is said that they have cooperation with Xilin Institute of Mathematics on many specific engineering design and calculation issues. "

After hearing this, he subconsciously glanced at the questions on the computer. Academician Zhou curled his lips and didn't know what to say for a moment.

It’s been a long time since we’ve seen each other.

Although it is rare for students to have smooth sailing on their academic journey thanks to their mentors, it is often heard.

But this was the first time he had heard of a student helping his tutor arrange academician recommenders and recommending his tutor to the highest academic institution in the country.

"He said it was a previous promise? Why did he suddenly call you today to tell you about this?" Academician Zhou asked after pondering for a long time.

"Because today Qiao Ze officially graduated from his undergraduate degree and then signed up to become Professor Li's doctoral student." Zhang Mingrui replied.

"Ahem... Such a coincidence? I remember that the professor is called Li Jiangao, right? How come they have arranged everything for today?"

"Maybe it's just a coincidence, right? I guess Lao Zhang and Lao Sheng also thought this was outrageous before. They were thinking about whether the child was not good at growing up, so they thought about dealing with it at the time. But now it has become a fact, and they also thought Hurry and confirm this matter. You also know how troublesome the Jie Qing incident was last time.

They were also afraid that if the things they had promised before were not fulfilled for Qiao Ze, the boy would cause trouble again. Lao Sheng also said on the phone just now that this kid is very capable and is a good hand in both construction and destruction. Why……"

After Zhang Mingrui finished speaking, he let out a long sigh.

In his opinion, Qiao Ze is good in every aspect, but he doesn't like to follow rules. What's even more frightening is that he really has the ability to break the rules.

If nothing else, just look at the interaction between Qiao Ze and Princeton today. I am afraid that if this little guy nods, the other party will immediately arrange everything properly. I don’t know if Xilin University of Technology took away Qiao Ze’s passport.

If this little guy really wants to leave the country, he won't even think about coming back.

"What do you think?" Zhou Liang asked after a moment of silence.

"I don't want to discuss this with you. There are only a few places in the School of Mathematics and Physics. If Qiao Ze and Li Jiangao occupy two..."

"Hey, isn't it still early? The recommendation and review will not be until next year. Let's have an idea first. Let's not consider such a troublesome matter for now." Zhou Liang waved his hand and decided to put this troublesome matter aside for the time being.

"Procrastination is not an option. It is said that the selection will not start until next year, but when have these competitions not started long ago? There must be an explanation first." Zhang Mingrui shook his head.

"What else can you say? God knows what else Qiao Ze can do in one year. Look, as long as he is still in China in a year, what will be the problem? Why don't we coax him first? If nothing else, Can China’s first Fields Medal be given away? Are you really going to be a sinner if people stop playing with us because of such a stupid thing?"

Zhou Liang muttered angrily, then pointed at the computer and said, "Look, Princeton just launched a research project, and here Qiao Ze answered two questions. You haven't understood this yet." What do you mean? There are plenty of people willing to pave the way for him, but the lack of you or me?"

Zhang Mingrui nodded and said with great relief: "You can think so too. I actually think that we must have the same idea. But when it comes to this matter, should we also discuss with Lao Luo and the others to target Qiao Do you also want to form a team for algebra research?

Just like Princeton, the results are announced regularly. After all, Qiao Ze is still at Xilin University of Technology. Our communication costs are lower, so we can’t let Princeton compete with us. "

Zhou Liang rolled his eyes and responded: "Well, it's time to hold a meeting quickly and implement this matter as soon as possible. Strive for a fund and let Qiao Ze serve as the deputy leader of the research team, responsible for the specific research direction of the topic Sex work. Then he won’t shirk it, right? If he wants to promote the mentor, he must make some contribution, right?”

"That's right! Why didn't you think of this before? Is this a good thing? The Xilin Institute of Optoelectronics can let Qiao Ze give you guidance, and the research on Qiao algebra will definitely be no problem. Go back and tell Qiao Ze directly, if he is willing to do this Deputy leader, that’s all easy to talk about.”

Zhang Mingrui put the tea cup aside and patted his thigh.

When talking about this issue, the two of them suddenly felt that their minds suddenly opened up.

In fact, I am not afraid that Qiao Ze has pursuits and ideas, but I am afraid that this little guy has no desires and desires.

"Yes, it's not just Joe algebra. You should have also seen his problem on the door through dimensions. He must have come up with some new things in recent times, and they are all merged together. By then, these two latest research directions , we in China are the most authoritative.

If we can really achieve this goal, let alone let Li Jiangao become an academician. When the election comes, I will recommend Li Jiangao to the presidium! Whoever objects, I will fight to the end! "

"boom!"

Zhou Liang even slapped the table because he was so excited.

It cannot be said that Zhou Liang lost his composure. In fact, for Chinese scholars, this was indeed a very embarrassing thing.

It is an indisputable fact that modern mathematics originated in Europe.

It’s not that Chinese mathematicians are incompetent, it’s mainly because the first two industrial revolutions were in the West. Even with the era of vigorous development of mathematics, China was still in disputes. Especially the last century can be said to be the golden age with the fastest development of modern mathematics and physics.

But China happens to be in the most humiliating historical period, and just surviving is already an extremely difficult thing. It's so hard to catch up.

This is also the reason why various concepts and formulas learned now are all Western names.

Even the complex mathematical symbols are in Greek letters.

Facts have proved that if a country wants to produce first-class scholars, it still needs the support of national strength. The people must be fed and clothed before they can think about academic matters. Although we have been catching up and have made many achievements, it is an indisputable fact that we were lagging behind in all aspects.

This is also the reason why top universities choose English when teaching professional courses. This is also the reason why the influence of English papers is far greater than that of Chinese papers.

There are too many professional terms that cannot be translated into Chinese, and some terms are really nondescript when translated.

For example, robustness, reflexivity...

If you have not studied it specifically, you will probably be confused when you see these words. Who can think of the stability of the system under disturbance from the word robustness. As for reflexivity, it is even more speechless. In mathematics, if an element is equivalent to itself, it is reflexive.

Who can understand just by looking at this word?

Therefore, even relevant professional practitioners will complain about these magical translations.

But there is no way, these definitions were first proposed by others.

Now China also has the opportunity to take the lead in some fields, which also means that some professional terms in Qiao algebra and Qiao geometry can also be named and explained in Chinese. It is time for the scholars on the other side to learn how to use as accurate descriptions as possible to restore the definitions of a series of Chinese professional terms.

It's really exciting to think about it, things have turned around.

"I understand what you mean. In this case, let's start contacting people right now and try to finalize this matter tonight. Then fly to Xilin to talk to Qiao Ze about this matter. If Li Jiangao is not enough, he can also Xilin University of Technology is involved. They have submitted several development plan applications this year, and we can also help them speak."

Zhang Mingrui immediately agreed.

"Well, that's it." Zhou Liang said decisively.



United States, Princeton.

When the two big-name academicians from China felt that Qiao Ze was flirting with the academic big guys at Princeton from afar, the big guys here also saw the two questions Qiao Ze asked after they woke up.

It feels completely different.

I don't know whether I should be happy or not.

After looking at the first question, I found that Qiao Ze's question-making model directly increased from one dimension to high dimension, which naturally meant that the complexity of solving this question increased linearly.

But then again, the questions Qiao Ze asked were indeed interesting.

What makes people unhappy is that although Qiao Ze asked two questions, he did not express any opinions on the theorems they concluded.

This is obviously not very satisfactory. After all, as long as you continue to study the questions, you can gradually enrich the question bank, but the correctness of the theorem determines whether the research direction is correct. Check whether there are errors or omissions in the certification process that they have overlooked.

This is really annoying.

When they saw the second question, all the big guys fell into deep thought again.

Is this geometry?

In the office, Edward Witten wrote down a series of formulas based on the topic.

[\delta v =\int dt \left[\frac{\partial v}{\partial \mathbf{x}}\cdot \delta \mathbf{x}+\frac{\partial v}{\partial (abla \ mathbf{x})}\cdot abla(\delta \mathbf{x})ight]]

Then he began to think until the door was knocked.

"Please come in."

"Hello, Professor Witten."

"Peter? Why are you here?"

"Come to Professor Sarnak's seminar next door tomorrow afternoon. Well, I want to discuss it with you. The damn time difference means I didn't arrive here until seven in the morning."

"Oh, sit down, want a cup of coffee?" Edward nodded, expressing understanding.

Professor Sarnak is a master in the fields of number theory and mathematical analysis, and often holds meetings in the mathematics department next door.

But Peter Schulz is willing to attend this time, probably not just to attend the meeting.

"Okay, it'd better be a au lait coffee. I really need a pick-me-up."

“Only American.”

"Yeah... that's okay."

Edward Witten stood up and asked Peter Schulz casually while helping him take the coffee: "Did you see the two questions Joe asked?"

"Yes, I received the email as soon as I got off the plane. The second question is very interesting, although it is just a minimization problem. I think if you use the Euler-Lagrange equation of the variational method, you can get an equation of motion, but …”

Before Peter Schulz could finish speaking, Edward Witten continued: "But the action quantity expression in the problem is extremely complex, and the equation of motion obtained after transformation will be quite complicated. Just like the Yang-Mills equation, it cannot be Ask for a solution. It has become another world problem."

Peter Schulz spread his hands, looking helpless.

There's no way, it's just as Edward said.

Using traditional mathematical methods to solve this kind of problem will only result in a very complex equation.

The shortest path from four dimensions to six dimensions is an extremely complex concept.

"So we still haven't been able to solve the problem directly from the idea of ​​​​superspiral space algebra, so that we can simplify the complex and make it possible to solve this type of equations. Probably Qiao Ze is using this method to remind us that a new research direction?"

"No, I think Joe is probably busy creating a new high-dimensional geometric system to complement the new algebra he constructed. He is an ambitious guy. Well, you should know that when I say ambition, I don't mean it in a derogatory sense."

After Peter Schulz finished speaking, the two fell silent at the same time.

It wasn't until Edward Witten placed the cup of coffee in front of him that he spoke to summarize.

"Actually, I don't care about these, but Joe said in the email that his main focus recently is on finally solving the mass gap problem. If what you said is right, it probably explains the geometric system he is building now. It will help a lot in finally solving this problem.

In other words, if he is really constructing a high-dimensional geometric system, it will likely be closely related to the existing microphysical system. Or that's the truth. I have just analyzed the expression of this problem.

What is special about this expression is that it introduces a metric to take into account the geometric structure of the space. This could involve gravitational effects or some other properties that go beyond traditional electromagnetic theory, since the concept of metric is often associated with gravity and the curvature of space-time. "

Peter Schulz was stunned when he heard Edward Witten's words.

It took him a while to react and said: "You mean, Qiao, he is not only studying the mass gap hypothesis, but he has directly entered into the proposition of grand unification?"

Edward Witten did not explain, but walked to the table, picked up the manuscripts scattered on the table, and then handed them to Peter Schulz.

Soon, Schulz was fully engrossed in researching the manuscript.

After all, he just read the questions in the car and had the simplest thoughts. It certainly can't be as valuable as something that Edward Witten summed up in his office.

After a while, Schultz raised his head and said in shock: "You mean, he is trying to use this theory to construct a law of behavior of non-traditional electromagnetic fields in gravity or curved space-time?"
