In the end, I chose to refer to Xiao Ran's opinion for the submission of the paper on the proof of the Riemann conjecture.

Professor Wang Shicheng also felt that this should be, although Xiao Ran did not participate in this exploration throughout the whole process, but Yang Chengyou was a student trained by Xiao Ran.

Yang Chengyou wanted to consult Xiao Ran's opinion, which was normal.

This is not a trivial matter, Xiao Ran decided to go to Yenching University in person to participate in all matters of thesis submission.

In the evening of the next day, Xiao Ran arrived at Yenching University, and Dean Pan also came back with him.

At the main gate of Yenching University, Yang Chengyou and Professor Wang Shicheng came out to greet them.

Xiao Ran came over this time, and there was no fanfare, so not many people knew about it, and after a few people met and greeted each other, they went directly to the Institute of Mathematics of Yenching University.

"A paper of 1.5 million words, even if you read it once, it will take at least a few months, and if you review the manuscript, not to mention the difficulty, it will take at least a few years if you review it carefully. Xiao Ran looked at the papers on the giant screen, and a solemn light flashed in his eyes.

He knows very well what the Riemann conjecture proves to mean, it is really a super event that will shake the whole world, a bad one, it is estimated that many industries will be affected by security.

Normally, the Riemann conjecture will be a gradual process of exploration.

In this process, people continue to discover new things and continue to promote the progress of related fields, until finally, the Riemann hypothesis is fully proved, and at the same time, all fields are able to digest the impact of the proof of this conjecture.

However, due to the appearance of Xiao Ran and the appearance of king-level students such as Yang Chengyou, the Riemann conjecture was directly proven, which was too advanced for other fields, and they couldn't react at all.

What should have been a gradual process is now a one-step process.

Therefore, when dealing with this matter, we must be cautious and cautious.

"Professor Wang, do you have any good suggestions?" Xiao Ran thought that he should first ask the opinion of this highly respected Professor Wang.

Professor Wang Shicheng is now in his 70s, and his hair is gray and gray.

"I'd recommend hanging to A first

xiv, because the proof process is too long, even if the email is sent, it cannot be sent, and it needs to be sent in batches, which is too troublesome. Professor Wang Shicheng said after thinking about it.

a

XIV is a website that collects preprints of papers in physics, mathematics, computer science and biology, where you publish your own papers, with the right to originality.

To put it simply, in order to prevent our ideas from being plagiarized by others before the paper is accepted, we will upload the draft manuscript to A

vix is pre-indexed, so it's a document inclusion site that can prove the originality of the paper (upload timestamp).

Yang Chengyou's proof process is too long, and the review time is a long-term process, so it is uploaded to A

XIV is a very sensible choice.

Xiao Ran nodded and said, "Professor Wang's suggestion is very good, and on the issue of submission, I suggest submitting papers in stages." The proof of the Riemann conjecture is divided into 108 stages, each of which is a very meaningful stage result, and we can first submit the manuscript to the top international journals for publication. ”

Xiao Ran's suggestion is also what everyone thinks, after all, the proof process is too large, and the difficulty of reviewing the manuscript is also very high, which requires a process.

As for the author of the paper, the first author is naturally Yang Chengyou, and the other authors include professors from the Institute of Mathematics at Yenching University who participated in this project.

Originally, they wanted to write Xiao Ran's name, but Xiao Ran refused.

This project was carried out at the Institute of Mathematics of Yenching University, which is also named after the Institute of Mathematics of Yenching University.

The paper was naturally written by Yang Chengyou himself, then reviewed by Professor Wang Shicheng, and finally submitted to the editorial office of the Annals of Mathematics in Princeton.

After visiting Yenching University for a day, Xiao Ran returned to Lingshui Comprehensive School the next day.

......

The first stage of the paper needs to be sorted out and then translated into English, which is actually not difficult, because the whole proof process is much less, only more than 10,000 words. Coupled with some explanations that are essential in the paper, the entire paper is less than 30,000 words long.

That night, Yang Chengyou had already prepared his thesis.

The next step is to upload a proof of the Riemann conjecture of 1.5 million words, which is actually equivalent to a mathematical work after the entire proof process is uploaded.

The dissertation is divided into 108 stages, each of which is written as a chapter, for a total of 108 chapters.

Yang Chengyou opened A

xiv's official website, and registered an account, nicknamed "White Butler-Yang Chengyou", and then he directly uploaded his paper.

Since the paper is too long, the upload time is also relatively long.

Yang Chengyou set the time and uploaded it chapter by chapter, and then he left it there.

......

But what he didn't know was that five hours later, the whole mathematical world shook.

It is night in the east, but day in the west. Some math enthusiasts, so-called civil subjects, are bored to log in to A

xiv, and then feel free to browse through some past papers.

Because there have been no good papers published in recent years, the entire mathematical community is like a pool of stagnant water, except for Yang Chengyou's "Proof of Zhou's Guess on the Distribution Law of Mersenne Prime Numbers" published in the "Annals of Mathematics" last year, which caused a wave of waves, and the mathematical community has gradually returned to a state of calm after that.

But just today, a series of papers on the proof of the "Riemann conjecture" swept through the entire A

xiv, a full 108 papers. One page displays 10 headings, and 108 papers directly occupy 11 pages.

The author of each paper is the same person, and it is not a big name in the industry.

Countless math enthusiasts have downloaded and studied it, only to find that they can't understand it at all, not at all.

"Neurotic, who is this person, uploading 108 papers at once, all of which have a word count of 1.5 million, this person is sick, right?"

"Is the Riemann conjecture so well proven? a nobody, nothing more than grandstanding. ”

"Although I don't know if his proof was successful, I just look at the process of his proof of 1.5 million words, and I will convince him. T Klaas !!"

"Hey, have you noticed that this name seems to be a little familiar, Yang Chengyou, isn't it the high school student who proved Zhou's guess last year? He should only be in his third year of high school this year!!"

"I have a hunch that the Riemann conjecture is proven. This Yang Chengyou is a disciple of Xiao Ran, a legendary educator who is mysterious in the East, and what he releases is not indiscriminate garbage?"

......

At the beginning, only some civil sciences or some PHDs paid attention to these, and their abilities were limited, and many people couldn't read Yang Chengyou's papers, so they didn't know whether they were right or wrong, so they could only publish some of their own speculations there.

And mathove

Flow, the largest exchange forum in the international mathematical community, has already emerged as a related topic.

But they are all shocking exclamations, and instead of discussing the content of the papers, they publish shocks about 108 papers and the incredible process of proving 1.5 million words.

[It's unbelievable that someone actually proved the Riemann conjecture, although I don't believe it much, but the process of proving 1.5 million words made me have to give in.] 】

[108 phased achievements, each of which is justified, although my theory is limited and I can't understand it, but I have a feeling that Yang is right. 】

[I am amazed that the Riemann conjecture, which has not been proved by countless mathematics enthusiasts and scientists for nearly a hundred years, was proved by a high school student in such a violent and direct way, and I am so impressed that I am so impressed. 】

......

During his participation in the International Olympiad in Princeton, Yang Chengyou got acquainted with Professor Alberg, the world's top number theorist and Fields Medal winner, and left a deep impression on him.

This paper was the manuscript of Yang Chengyou's conjecture about the distribution of Meisenne primes, and Yang Chengyou later came to Princeton to participate in the Olympiad, and his performance during this period was even more praised by Professor Alberg.

In addition, Professor Alberger and Yang Chengyou are also friends in distress, when Yang Chengyou and others were attacked by a group of men in suits and sunglasses on the way out, Yang Chengyou and Lu Jiajia and other six people showed extraordinary skills that Professor Alberger will never forget.

Unfortunately, Professor Alberg has repeatedly extended invitations to Yang Chengyou, but has been repeatedly rejected.

Princeton is one of the world's mathematics centers, where most of the world's top mathematics experts are gathered, and Professor Alberger personally invited Yang Chengyou to study abroad.

If Yang Chengyou agrees, then in less than two years, he will become a returnee professor under the age of 20.

Today, Professor Alberg was doing his own research when suddenly the editor-in-chief of the Annals of Mathematics approached him directly, his tone was full of shock, and he was invited to review a paper.

The name of this paper is very simple, it is called "The first stage of the 108 stages of proof of the Riemann conjecture".

As soon as Professor Alberg heard that it was a proof of the Riemann conjecture, and that it was a paper from the Institute of Mathematics of Yenching University in Oriental China, his passion had already been extinguished. However, when he saw the name of the first author, he couldn't help but have a gleam in his eyes.

"Yang, you've finally made a new achievement. ”

Alberg was a little excited, he opened the paper, read it very carefully, and as he read, he took out a pen and paper to follow the calculus.

As time passed, the smile on Alberg's face grew brighter.

"Yang, you're really the best!"
