From all-round academic master to chief scientist - Chapter 537 High-dimensional interference theory

This is the end of this report that will go down in history.

And every participant felt that the trip was worthwhile.

Whether it is when Lin Xiao talks about the paper or when he asks questions later.

The level of excitement made everyone feel as if they had watched a perfect performance.

Of course, for the mathematicians present, what they saw was the falling of a curtain and the erection of a monument.

The Riemann Hypothesis, a nearly two-hundred-year-old problem, finally came to an end. From then on, the Riemann-Lin Theorem and the thousands of propositions that were proved and promoted to theorems are obviously monuments.

So naturally, as long as the proposers of the thousands of propositions are still alive, they will express their great gratitude to Lin Xiao in their hearts.

After all, as long as their propositions can be turned into theorems, then they will be able to obtain corresponding honors. In the future, when their theorems are used in other papers, the theorems named after their surnames will be remembered by people.

Of course, similarly, there are inevitably some more sad people in the mathematics community.

Because there are not many people like Faltings who have devoted almost their entire lives to the study of the Riemann Hypothesis.

As a result, the problem they invested so much energy in research was now directly solved by Lin Xiao. How could they not feel uncomfortable?

This is equivalent to saying that everything they spent on it before was wasted.

However, no matter what, the facts have been placed in front of them. Even if they are unwilling to accept it, they can’t change this matter unless they can find some fatal question from Lin Xiao’s proof and Lin Xiao’s answer If they don’t come up, then they have successfully overturned Lin Xiao’s proof.

In fact, some people actually did this later, and began to focus the energy originally used to study the Riemann Hypothesis on finding problems in Lin Xiao’s proof.

However, they had been studying like this for who knows how long, but they still could not find the fatal problem that could overturn Lin Xiao’s proof. Instead, they wasted a lot of time on it.

Of course, Lin Xiao naturally didn’t know what happened after that.

Although you can guess one or two.

After all, this kind of thing had already happened when he proved other problems before, such as the existence and smoothness of the solutions to the Navier-Stokes equation, not to mention the more famous Leigh Man guessed it, so it was not surprising that these things happened.

Of course, during the entire press conference, in addition to Lin Xiao’s eye-catching report, the young man named Shuke Black at the end was also appreciated by many mathematicians present.

Being able to solve problems is an important point, and being able to find problems is equally important, and it is also very challenging.

Just like when Andrew Wiles first announced his proof of Fermat’s Last Theorem, he also did not discover the problems in his proof. In the end, others pointed out the problem.

Therefore, it is also important to identify problems.

Even though the last problem he raised was still solved by Lin Xiao, it was still praised by others.

Afterwards, Faltings went up to express his appreciation in person, saying that he had done a good job, and even half-jokingly told Schultz that he wanted to compete with him for this student.

Schultz naturally refused repeatedly.

My own precious student must not be allowed to be missed by other people.

But no matter what, with the end of this report, this International Congress of Mathematicians has come to an end.

As soon as the morning report ended, the closing ceremony ushered in the evening.

At the closing ceremony, Lin Xiao was invited to give a speech.

Then, the next day, all the participants started to leave.

Of course, the end of this conference does not mean that things are over.

The proof of the Riemann Hypothesis by Lin Xiao caused a stir all over the world.

Although not everyone is interested in purely academic matters such as mathematics, once a gimmick is added, ordinary people will be interested.

After all, the most important problem in mathematics has been solved, and with the name Lin Xiao, which has its own traffic, it is naturally easy to attract the attention of many people.

Suddenly, all the major media in the world were reporting on this matter, and there were also heated discussions on this matter in various forums.

On the foreign version of Zhihu reddit, someone asked a question.

[How to evaluate Lin Xiao’s successful proof of the Riemann Hypothesis? 】

Below this question, a large group of students from mathematics departments of various world-renowned universities emerged.

“A Ph.D. student in mathematics from Princeton University came uninvited. I was present at Dr. Lin’s report. I can only say that Dr. Lin’s speech is always so excellent and perfect that people can’t find any faults. Come on, it’s a pity that I can’t apply for Dr. Lin’s graduate degree. It’s such a pity.」

“Oh, are you sure you want us to evaluate this?” All I can say is that until the paradox of whether God can create a stone that He cannot lift is resolved, I will always believe that even if God comes down, He will not be as wise as Lin.”

“The Riemann Hypothesis was proposed by Bernhard Riemann in 1859. It has a history of 171 years. This problem has always been considered the crown of mathematics. However, no one has been able to successfully take it off. , and in history, some mathematicians have spent a lifetime studying this problem, but they have always been unable to make progress.

The time when Lin Xiao really started to solve this problem was probably only in the past two years. After all, we all know that he spent most of the time solving aerospace technology problems. It is estimated that it was only in the last two years. Only when he has the time to study this issue, of course, this is just a conservative estimate, it may be shorter.

All in all, what I want to say is that for such a great mathematician and his great deeds, it is no longer something that we can arbitrarily evaluate. If we insist on evaluation, I can only say, In the future, when I silently say Amen in my heart, I will think about Lin first and then God. 』

“I don’t think there’s anything to comment on. I already knew that this would happen sooner or later. After all, Lin Lian has solved so many problems. Is it possible that he will let go of problems like the Riemann Hypothesis?” That is to say, I haven’t found any lottery company before that can prove the Riemann Hypothesis. Otherwise, I will definitely study directly.』

“Instead of paying attention to this matter, I think it is better to pay attention to Lin’s previous two awards in a row. Winning the Gauss Award and the Chen Shengshen Award consecutively in one conference is equivalent to making history.”

“Hey, I think your focus is wrong. After all, isn’t it natural for Lin to win these two awards in a row? So it is he who proved the Riemann Hypothesis that deserves more attention. 』

“…”

There were all kinds of strange answers, and some of them made people feel dumbfounded. Some people compared Lin Xiao with their God, which further showed the status of Lin Xiao in their hearts now.

Of course, there is nothing we can do about it. Perhaps for people who study mathematics, Lin Xiao has become God in their minds, even more omnipotent than God.

Perhaps in the past, Lin Xiao already had such a lofty status in the hearts of mathematics students, and now, this lofty status has obviously been strengthened again.

Of course, Lin Xiao basically didn’t care much about these things.

After the closing ceremony, when he was about to return to China the next day, a piece of bad news came, causing him to temporarily stop his plans to return to China.

Jean-Pierre Serre died last night.

He died peacefully and peacefully until his family members woke up this morning and were about to ask Serge to have breakfast.

Originally, yesterday, Serge had read Lin Xiao’s report in its entirety. After seeing that the report meeting ended perfectly, he seemed to be radiant, his energy had recovered a lot, and he even had an appetite when eating. But now it seems that it is just a flashback.

Still in that villa.

Lin Xiao came here to see the last face of his teacher.

Although this was not the last time the teacher saw him.

“We have contacted the funeral home and it will be sent to the funeral home today and the burial will be held tomorrow.”

Jean-James Serre on the side whispered, with a sad look on his face.

Looking at the teacher who had been covered with a layer of white cloth, Lin Xiao nodded slightly.

France is a traditional Catholic country, so when it comes to burials, cremation is often not given priority, but burial is. At the same time, burials are usually carried out the day after the death, so it does not take too long. Because that would be considered disrespectful to the deceased.

At this moment, Lin Xiao didn’t know what kind of emotion he should feel in his heart. After all, people are subject to birth, old age, illness and death.

Professor Searle was able to die at the age of one hundred and four, which is considered perfect.

Finally, he let out a long sigh, and then said to Jean-James next to him: “Don’t be too sad. In our country, it is rare to say that there is joy or sorrow, and it is a rare thing to die without a disease, and Professor Serre has such a high reputation. So the family members of the deceased usually don’t feel too sad at this time.”

Jean-James nodded.

“thank you, I know now.”

Lin Xiao nodded slightly, and then he stayed and watched the teacher’s body being taken away by the funeral parlor. During this period, many people came to express their condolences, and those who had not yet had time to attend the International Congress of Mathematicians naturally came here to attend. Send off.

After all, Jean-Pierre Serre has a very high qualification in the world of mathematics. He had a close relationship with Grothendieck and studied the Weil conjecture with Pierre Deligne, making The latter was a master of mathematics who later successfully proved Weil’s conjecture.

Therefore, it is naturally respected by many mathematicians.

After everyone expressed their condolences, a formal burial was held the next day.

As an important figure in the French mathematics community, he is also world-renowned, so the French government also personally selected the site for his burial, namely the French Panthéon, where Voltaire, Rousseau, the Curies and other important figures in French history are buried. Celebrities, and Jean-Pierre Serre was also buried here with his previous honors.

This is naturally a great honor.

Just like that, the funeral ended here.

Lin Xiao didn’t stay long. He quickly boarded the plane back to China and returned to the country.

When he returned to China, he also received a grand pick-up ceremony from the domestic mathematics community.

After all, it was he who brought this great achievement of the Riemann Hypothesis prover to their country.

This alone is enough for the country to applaud it, not to mention other things.

However, because he had just seen off one of his teachers, his mood was not very enthusiastic. Those who picked him up also saw it and of course knew the reason, so they did not celebrate too much. It was over soon.

Finally, Lin Xiao finally returned to his house.

Picking up Mimi next to him, he started to pet the cat.

Although he was not at home, he made Xiaomi responsible for feeding Mimi and scooping poop and changing cat litter. Sometimes Xiaomi would even use a cat teasing stick to play with Mimi.

So basically you don’t have to worry about problems with your breasts.

While petting the cat, I looked out the window at the darkening sky.

This is the end of the time for the truth to shine on mankind. Next, it is time to usher in a crisis for mankind.

The Mars Savior has been launched, and it has been more than two months now.

It is expected to return in July next year.

So there’s still a year to go.

Of course, for now, the crisis that Jayden Armstrong will bring, so the most critical issue still lies in the anchor destruction technology.

Then, next, he will need to spend all his time on the research of high-dimensional interference theory.

In addition, we still need to find time to destroy the ruins on the earth.

His eyes gradually widened and became extremely deep.

…

Time passed quickly.

In the blink of an eye, we have arrived in 2031.

“Congratulations to the host, for successfully completing the research on high-dimensional interference theory. It is difficult to spy on high dimensions with low dimensions, and it is even more impossible to interfere with high dimensions from low dimensions, but you, host, have successfully done it This! Even though there were some adventures in the process, it’s still incredible!”

“Reward 30,000 points of mathematics experience, 80,000 points of physics experience, 1,100 points of truth, [Question of Super Dimensions].”

“[Superdimensional Question] allows the host to ask a question at a 30% discount.”

I had a fever yesterday morning, with the highest fever reaching 39.1 degrees. The fever completely subsided today.

I don’t know if it’s due to yang, but I feel like the effect is not as serious as said.

This afternoon I regained a little energy, so I hurriedly wrote another chapter, and I felt a little dizzy again while writing.
