Chapter 368

For a whole day, the topic of discussion in the mathematical community was this incident.

After all, this incident involved five geniuses in the field of mathematics.

Any one of these five is enough to serve as the leader of the research group of a large-scale project.

And now, all five of them are stuck in the subject of the narrow Hodge conjecture.

Many people regretted it.

They share the same views as Chairman Gonds.

Gu Lu and the five of them fought, which was equivalent to a personnel internal friction within the mathematical community.

It was a very unwise behavior for the five of them, and for the entire mathematical community.

But at the same time, everyone is clear.

They couldn't change the minds of the two groups of people, Gu Lu and Konstantin.

This battle is destined to be fought.

The only thing they can do is eat melons.

Someone posted a poll post on the forum asking people to guess their respective winning percentages.

The final data is......

Eighty percent of the people think that the Konstantin trio wins, and only two out of ten people think that Gu Lu's duo wins.

It's a one-sided grind.

And most people are optimistic about Konstantin them.

The reason is simple.

Because on paper, it is clear that the two teams have an absolute advantage on Constantine's side.

There were three people on Constantine's side, and there were only two people on Gu Lu's side, him and Simon.

Of course, it doesn't mean that you can win as long as there are more people.

In the face of Gu Lu and Simon, even if they pull out more than ten of their melon-eating people, they may not be Gu Lu's enemies!

The crux of the matter is......

In the case of similar individual strength, the gap of one person is enough to lay the foundation for victory!

Konstantin is a Filipino Prize winner and is known as an all-round mathematician, and his strength is certainly nothing to say.

And Gu Lu, as a rising star in the mathematical world, is almost as good as Konstantin in terms of hard power!

But in terms of experience, Gu Lu still lacks a lot.

This gives Konstantin a certain advantage, but it is estimated that this advantage will not be too great.

As for Simon and Carl.

Before Gu Lu became famous, these two were the two most well-known geniuses in the entire field of algebraic geometry.

The two are of the same age, and they are mixed together in the European mathematical community, so there will naturally be no shortage of contradictions and disputes.

The two have won and lost each other, and neither can help either side of the other.

The level of the two is almost the same as that of five or five.

In this case, the four of them will be offset by twos.

However, there is one more person on Konstantin's side.

Danish mathematician Alec!

This is the undisputed first of the younger generation of mathematicians in the field of algebraic topology!

Its strength is almost the same as Simon and Carl, and it is still victorious.

With Alec's main force on Constantine's side, of course he will have an absolute advantage.

That's why the mathematicians who eat melons chose to support Konstantin's side.

Then Gu Lu's side has no advantage?

In the eyes of everyone, Gu Lu and Simon still have an advantage.

This advantage is all about time.

According to everyone's calculations, Gu Lu and Simon began to prepare for the overcoming of the narrow Hodge conjecture as soon as the International Congress of Mathematicians ended.

Then in terms of time, Gu Lu and Simon have a time advantage of about half a month compared to Constantine.

However, even if Gu Lu had the advantage of time, everyone was still not optimistic about them.

The work of proving a narrow conjecture is certainly a rather lengthy process.

It will take at least one to two years to get it done.

Compared with such a long research cycle, half a month ahead is almost equivalent to nothing.

As long as Konstantin wants to chase, it is still easy to catch up.

There was overwhelming support for Konstantin online.

And many people are paying close attention to Gu Lu's movements.

In everyone's opinion, since Constantine has brought in two helpers, Gu Lu can bring in another person to help in addition to Simon to make up a 3V3 situation.

With Gu Lu's fame and connections in the mathematical world, it is not too difficult to pull a mathematician with the same strength as Simon.

However, to everyone's surprise......

For several days, Gu Lu did not make any movement.

It seems that he is going to prepare to live with Simon like this.

Simon: "Gu Lu, we really don't pull each other anymore, I know Geguri from the University of Munich, I can let him join us!"

The Ggully mentioned by Simon is a super boss in the field of algebra who has won the Cole Algebra Prize.

Facing Simon's proposal, Gu Lu smiled lightly and shook his head, "No, we won't pull people, just the two of us!" Simon, I believe you!"

There are more people and there are more people, and there are fewer people and fewer people.

There are only two people, him and Simon, who are very convenient in terms of communication and task assignment, and can even be flexible.

Three people are a lot more cumbersome.

Simon was a little moved by what Gu Lu said, "Simon, do you really want me?"

Gu Lu nodded, "Well, of course, I won't look for anyone else!"

Simon clenched his fists heavily, "Okay, Gu Lu, from now on, I will be your person!"

Gu Lu smiled slightly, his gaze calm, "Simon, believe me, I won't let you down...... Trust. ”

............

At the same time, the other side.

ETH Zurich, Switzerland, where Constantine, Carl and Alec met for the first time.

A small conference room.

The three of Konstantin each held a cup of coffee and chatted while drinking.

The atmosphere was relaxed at first.

The three of them know each other, and their previous relationship is not good but not bad.

Karl agreed to join Constantine's chariot because of Simon.

Alec, on the other hand, was simply interested in the topic of the narrow Hodge conjecture, so he agreed to Konstantin's invitation to join the team.

Among the three, Konstantin is the oldest, and purely on paper, Konstantin is also the strongest.

Therefore, this meeting was led by Konstantin.

Facing the two, Konstantin rarely put down the shelf this time and greeted him with a smile.

Then, we got to the point, "Our top priority at the current stage is to seize the time to build the theoretical framework of the subject as soon as possible!"

Carl nodded approvingly, "I agree! Moreover, I heard from the grapevine that Gu Lu and Simon have successfully built the framework of the project!"

"So fast!" Alec was surprised.

"No surprise. As an opponent, Konstantin can be said to know Gu Lu's strength very well, "After all, that's Gu Lu!"

Even he has to be deeply jealous of existence.

Otherwise, Konstantin would not have pulled in the two people, Carl and Alec, to compete against Gu Lu and Simon.
