Chapter 239: Controversy

Mary's teaching assistant office is much smaller than Mueller's professor's office, and she shares it with another teaching assistant.

Mary invited Shen Qi to her office to discuss the revision of the Riemann Zeta Function ζ (2N+1).

"Mary, the situation seems to be very bad, and our paper needs to be overhauled, and I personally think that this overhaul is equivalent to writing a new one. ”

After Shen Qi studied the feedback from the experts on "The Problem of Riemann Zeta Function ζ (2n+1)", he had a headache: "After several months of hard work, we have not achieved the results as we thought. ”

"You've been working hard for months, and I've spent a whole year on this subject. Mary looked more melancholy and troubled.

"On the other hand, maybe it's not that bad. I believe in the level of the experts in the Annals of Mathematics, and I agree with the experts' opinion that since we are not good enough, then we should do it better. At least the experts have pointed us to a dead end, so we should look elsewhere. Shen Qi quickly came out of the shadow of failure, he had two projects at hand, and he didn't have time to dwell on the past and complain about one of them.

"Tell me about your new ideas. Mary said, intrigued.

A blackboard was hung on the wall of the office, and Shen Qi wrote the formula on the blackboard: ln(1-x)=ln(1-cost-isint)=ln√(1-cost)^2+(1-sint)^2+iarctan......

After writing, Shen Qi said, "Mary, you watch for a few minutes first, and I'll go to the bathroom." When I come back, I hope to hear your advice. ”

Mary stared at the blackboard in a daze, and nodded blankly.

A few minutes later, Shen Qi returned to Mary's teaching assistant office.

I saw Mary take off her suit jacket and put it in her hands, and stand straight in front of the blackboard like a wooden man, without blinking her eyes or speaking.

Syllable!

Shen Qi snapped his fingers in front of Mary, "Hey, wake up, Dr. Mary." ”

Mary woke up like a dream, sweating profusely: "Shen Qi, are you sure this can work? How do I feel that it is not reliable at all, it is not as good as the previous version!"

"Our last edition has been rejected, Dr. Mary, so in this edition we have to think differently and look for a breakthrough from a progression perspective. ”

"But Shen Qi, I always feel a little uneasy, this is a woman's intuition, I feel that there are loopholes in your new ideas, but I can't say it clearly for a while. ”

Shen Qi explained: "There is no right or wrong in the logical thinking setting stage, only the choice of whether to continue to work. ”

"If we follow your idea of series calculation and derivation, we may be in vain in the next period of time. Mary had reservations about Shen Qi's new ideas.

"Mary, you just have to answer me or not. Shen Qi knocked on the blackboard, and said in his heart that if you don't do it, I will do it alone, if I don't have an orbifold topic, I will really do it alone.

Mary hesitated for a few seconds before slamming her suit jacket on the table: "I'll do it!"

"Very good, I wish us a happy cooperation. Shen Qi erased the formula from the blackboard and wrote down a new one.

As soon as they said it, Shen Qi and Mary formulated the overall logical framework and the details of the derivation of the revised version of The Problem of the Riemann Zeta Function ζ (2N+1), and clarified their respective division of labor.

In any case, the principle of the two men to carry out the Riemann conjecture on the basis of the Hadammad system is the same, which is the cornerstone of seeking cooperation while reserving differences.

During the day, Shen Qi worked with Mary on "The Problem of the ζ of Riemann Zeta Function" (2N+1), and at night he worked alone on "Orbifold Basic Group to Characterize the Symbiosis Group".

A week passed.

"Hey, Mary, you made a low-level mistake, this level shouldn't be so restrained! Because of your mistake, we have been working for nothing for a week!"

"Shen Qi, don't put on a critic's face, I did it completely according to your logic! The person who needs to be responsible is you!"

"Dr. Mary, you are unreasonable and unreasonable!"

"Mr. Shen Qi, I said a long time ago, there is a problem with your thinking, there are loopholes!"

……

In the first week of Shen Qi and Mary's cooperation, there were endless quarrels.

Shen Qi and Mary did not question the authority of the Annals of Mathematics, because the journal was sponsored by Princeton and edited by Fields Medal-winning Faltins.

Among the four major mathematics journals, the Annals of Mathematics is the most well-known and the most rigorous review.

The Annals of Mathematics criticized Shen Qi and Mary's first edition of their papers, and they were under great pressure, and they were extremely eager to save face and prove their strength in the second edition of their papers.

It's stressful, and your temper is easy to become hot, and you will quarrel if you don't agree with each other.

The situation did not improve in the second week, and the conflict was escalating.

"Hopeless German woman, I really don't know how you got your Ph.D. in mathematics, so the criteria for awarding PhDs at the University of Bonn depends on the size of the Ph.D. student's chest?"

"Extremely arrogant Chinese boy, you are indulging in your own ignorant and comical conjectures, and your so-called new ideas, hehe, ridiculous series derivation, are worthless in my opinion!"

"Mary, if you have this attitude, then there is no need for us to cooperate anymore, let's go our separate ways. ”

"Whatever you want, please leave my office now, right now!"

Bang!

Shen Qi slammed the door and left angrily.

This German woman has reached menopause, obviously her calculation and derivation have made a serious mistake, and she still refuses to admit it, and she is actually to blame me!

If it weren't for the fact that you and Professor Müller are fellow countrymen, I would have ...... Shen Qi found Mueller, and he complained strongly in anger: "This woman is crazy, crazy and irretrievable, Professor Mueller, please forgive me for not being able to continue working with her, I will complete the "Problem of the Riemann Zeta Function ζ (2N+1)" alone, and ask Professor Mueller for approval." ”

Professor Muller smiled and showed Shen Qi the photos on his FB, which were a set of magical auroras: "The aurora is so beautiful, it shocked me to kneel and worship, and I was very fortunate that my wife and I captured the aurora for three consecutive days." Shen Qi, you should take the woman you love the most to Yellowknife Town, you still have a chance to see the aurora before March. ”

"Professor Mueller, your photograph of the aurora is fascinating. Shen Qi dealt with it absentmindedly, and then said seriously: "I assure you that I study the problem of the Riemann Zeta Function ζ (2n+1) alone, and the efficiency is definitely higher than that of two people. Tired is tired, but it's better than endless bickering. ”

Muller was kind and intimidating: "Shen Qi, one day you will lead your own team to move forward bravely on the road of mathematics, and the importance of a lone wolf is far less than that of a wolf king." And there are all kinds of people in a team, and they have different specialties and personality traits. Learning to be tolerant and good at coordination is a must for a team leader. ”

"Well, I'll admit that something is wrong with my mentality, and I don't know why, I've been particularly prone to getting angry lately. Shen Qi thought about it and felt that what Mueller said made sense.

"Mary is a poor woman, the strength on the surface is to hide the fragility and pain in her heart, tolerate her, Shen Qi, she will be an important partner for you. ”

"I try to reconcile with her, thank you, Professor Mueller, for your admonition. ”

……

I recommend a book "Born to Run", which is a new book by the author of my life, which is worth looking forward to.
