Chapter 452

Gu Lu and Simon successfully proved the narrow Hodge conjecture, and Bao Songquan was undoubtedly one of the happiest people.

Even Bao Songquan's excitement is higher than that of Gu Lu, who is one of the parties.

The reason is simple.

Gu Lu proved the special Hodge conjecture.

This is arguably the biggest breakthrough in the field of algebraic geometry in mathematics in the past five years.

And let everyone see the dawn of a thorough proof of Hodge's conjecture.

The position of the narrow Hodge conjecture in the mathematical community is much higher than that of the BAB conjecture and the conjecture of equal difference primes proved by Gu Lu last year.

Now, Gu Lu has completely conquered the peak of the narrow Hodge conjecture.

Next, it's time to reap the fruits of victory.

First of all, in that battle with Konstantin, Gu Lu became a complete winner, there is no doubt about this.

In the future, after seeing Gu Lu's amazing speed, Konstantin probably won't have the slightest idea of challenging Gu Lu.

Bao Songquan didn't care about this victory.

In Bao Songquan's opinion, Gu Lu can defeat Konstantin once, then he can defeat Konstantin a second time.

Konstantin did not have that qualification and became Gu Lu's lifelong enemy.

However, for another matter, Konstantin is very concerned.

That's the Fields Medal!

After last year's International Congress of Mathematicians, Gu's several world-class research achievements have enough strength to touch the threshold of the Fields Medal.

In the past four years, as long as Gu Lu has completed a topic that is equivalent to the BAB conjecture, then at the next International Congress of Mathematicians, Gu Lu will win the Fields Medal Medal.

But I didn't expect that Gu Lu was even more ruthless here.

BAB guessed that the level of the subject was obviously no longer enough for Gu Lu.

So Gu Lu put his mind on the problem of the century of narrow Hodge conjecture.

But what no one expected was.

Gu Lu succeeded!

In terms of difficulty, the narrow Hodge conjecture is more than twice as high as the BAB conjecture, but Gu Lu really succeeded.

At the same time, Gu Lu's success also means another thing.

If it was said that the possibility of Gu Lu winning the Philippine Award was eight or nine in the past, then this time, it can basically be said that it is a certainty!

And that's not all.

Except for Gu Lu, Simon and Gu Lu are in a similar situation.

With the results of the narrow Hodge conjecture in hand, plus some previous scattered mathematical achievements, Simon can also be sure of a place in the next Fields Medal.

Such.

The four Filipino Prize places were decided more than three years before the next International Congress of Mathematicians.

Many mathematicians don't know whether to cry or laugh when they come to this conclusion.

The next Philippine Awards ceremony should be the most suspenseless award ceremony in history!

The crowd was silent in their hearts.

…………

Bao Songquan didn't care if Simon would win the next Fields Medal.

But whether Gu Lu can win the Fields Medal is one thing Bao Songquan has always been concerned about.

It's been mentioned before.

Since the establishment of the Fields Medal, no mathematician of Chinese descent has won the award in China!

This is a brutal truth.

This also makes the Chinese mathematics community in recent years, although the status of the international community has improved, but when some domestic mathematicians meet some mathematicians from mathematical powers, they still can't proudly straighten their waists.

The Fields Medal has become a knot in the hearts of many mathematicians.

After the turn of the millennium, I don't know how many Chinese mathematicians have launched an attack on the Fields Medal, but none of them have failed.

The vast majority of people don't even touch the edge of the trophy.

And now Gu Lu is undoubtedly the mathematician who is most likely to win the Fields Medal among Chinese mathematicians, and there is no one!

Coupled with the proof of the results of the narrow Hodge conjecture, Gu Lu has already surpassed most of the previous Philippine Award winners in terms of research results.

For example, Konstantin, who won the Fields Medal last year.

Gu Lu's current mathematical achievements are added together, and he has slightly surpassed Konstantin.

It can be said that Gu Lu's only drawback now is his age.

Gu Lu is too young.

Just after the New Year, Gu Lu is only twenty-five years old this year.

Bao Songquan is worried that the International Mathematical Union will postpone Gu Lu's Fields Medal to the next year, or the next year, because Gu Lu is too young, so as to give up the quota to those mathematicians who are close to the required number of years to win the award.

This is not unheard of in history, for example, Konstantin was treated like this.

Anyway, according to Gu Lu's age, he can also participate in the selection of three or four Fields Medals.

Bao Songquan's worries are in this place.

However, on the whole, Bao Songquan is still more happy than worried.

After all, Gu Lu's winning the Fields Medal is already a sure thing.

The difference is nothing more than the morning and evening of time.

Anyway, the Chinese mathematics community has been waiting for so long, so it doesn't matter if you wait a few more years.

"Gu Lu, do you have any ideas to open a special report on the narrow Hodge conjecture?" Bao Songquan turned the pen in his hand and looked at Gu Lu with a smile.

Gu Lu was stunned for a moment, "Special report?"

"That's right!" Bao Songquan nodded, "My idea here is to ask you to hold a special lecture on the special Hodge conjecture in our school, and when the time comes, we will invite mathematicians from all over the world to come and participate." ”

"It should take a lot of manpower and material resources to prepare for such a briefing. Gu Lu's brows furrowed slightly.

Gu Lu has the experience of participating in this form of report meeting.

It was at Princeton University in the United States, and Gu Lu remembered that it was a Wolf Prize winner who came to the stage to report at that time.

At that time, the old professor's appearance on the stage made Gu Lu envious for a long time.

And now Gu Lu also has the opportunity to hold this kind of academic seminar.

However, as far as Gu Lu knows, this kind of report will require a lot of manpower and material resources.

This is because the audience for the report is not only well-known mathematicians in China, but also for the world.

Add to that the attraction of the topic itself of the narrow Hodge conjecture.

Gu Lu estimated that there would not be a small number of foreign mathematicians present at that time.

This is a big challenge for the reception of Yanda's personnel.

However, before Bao Song's comprehensiveness, these are not problems, "You don't have to worry about this matter, just leave it all to me." ”

"What you need to be responsible for is to prepare the content of the report seriously, so that the group of foreign mathematicians realize that there is no shortage of geniuses in our Chinese mathematical community!"

Gu Lu nodded and asked, "Senior brother, when is the time for the report meeting?"

Bao Song tapped on the table with his fingers and muttered for a few seconds, "It's set for April 12th!"
