Chapter 745: The Outlook for the Fields Medal

Chapter 745

Ninth!

Gu Lu, who heard this ranking, was overjoyed.

This ranking was a few places higher than Gu Lu expected.

Moreover.

The most important thing is.

The Department of Mathematics of Yan University is in the top 10.

Although it was just a side-by-side entry, it finally got in.

The task of the system is to enter the top five in the world in the Department of Mathematics of Yan University.

At present, the Department of Mathematics of Yan University is in the ninth position.

Distance to the top five.

Only the last four places remain.

Of course......

After finishing in the top 10, it is extremely difficult to move up to the top 10.

So, even if there are only four places left from the target.

Gu Lu is still not 100% sure that he will definitely be able to achieve this goal.

But to be happy is still to be happy.

Gu Lu was not only happy to be closer to completing the task, but also happy for the entire Yan University Academy.

Make the Yanda Institute bigger and stronger.

I don't know how much this is the lifelong wish of the older generation of the Yan University Academy.

And now the prestige and influence of the Yan University Mathematics Academy in the international arena have been as they wished.

Gu Lu and Bao Songquan glanced at each other, and they both laughed heartily.

Bao Songquan slapped his thigh and said as if he thought of something, "Gu Lu, I estimate that the ranking of our Yan University's Department of Mathematics will be improved again next year." ”

"Oh?" Gu Lu was slightly puzzled, not knowing why Bao Songquan's tone was so sure.

Bao Songquan laughed, "Gu Lu, you forgot, next year is 2022!"

2022 is a year of Filipino awards!

Gu Lu suddenly realized.

"I remember. Bao Songquan took a shallow sip of tea, "Next year will be the year of the Philippine Prize, and according to the series of research results you have achieved so far in the field of mathematics, I don't think it is too much to win a Fields Medal medal." ”

"And once your Fields Medal is in hand, won't the ranking of our Yan University School of Mathematics naturally increase. ”

Bao Songquan was right.

Unless it is the old men of the review committee of the International Mathematical Union who risk the world's condemnation, it is a sure thing that Gu Lu will win a Fields Medal next year.

In the past few years, Gu Lu has solved many world-class mathematical problems such as the BSD conjecture, the equal difference prime conjecture, and the special Hodge conjecture.

These conjectures are equivalent to four twos.

Not to mention.

Later, there is the king bomb of the geometry-algebra-topology grand unification theory.

Four twos plus king fried!

It's an invincible combination.

If there is only one Fields Medal, the jury may still push back the year of Gu Lu's award by one or four years because Gu Lu is too young.

But the key is......

There are four Fields Medals.

No matter how you say it.

Gu Lu should also get one.

When the achievements are high enough, age is no longer an obstacle to Gu Lu's award.

The review committee of the International Mathematical Union will not, and dare not not award this award to Gu Lu.

Otherwise.

The impartiality of the Fields Medal will be questioned by the public.

They don't dare to come nonsense.

Therefore.

Things are just as Bao Songquan is sure of.

As long as there are no accidents.

Of the four Fields Medals next year, Gu Lu can get one 100%.

Although the Yan University of Mathematics has barely squeezed into the top ten in the world this time, compared with the other nine universities in the top ten, it is obvious that the foundation of the Yan University of Mathematics is still a lot worse.

One of the most obvious manifestations is:

The remaining nine universities will have more or less several Filipino Award winners.

And Yan University Academy.

Not a single one!

Or rather......

Since the establishment of the Fields Medal, no mathematician of Chinese descent has won the award.

And Gu Lu's award.

will fill the gap in this area.

The School of Mathematics will also become the first university in China to have a Fields Medal winner.

"Gu Lu, I'm a senior brother, but I want to congratulate you in advance, winning the Philippine Prize at the age of twenty-seven, you will not only become the first Chinese mathematician in China to win the Philippine Prize, but also break the record of the Fields Medal and become the youngest winner in the history of the award!"

Although there is still nearly a year before the International Congress of Mathematicians, Bao Songquan has already congratulated Gu Lu in advance.

Gu Lu waved his hand modestly, "Senior brother, I haven't got the Fei Award medal yet!"

Bao Songquan laughed happily, "Hey, isn't that a matter of time!"

Gu Lu pondered for a moment and asked, "Senior brother, has the time and place for next year's International Congress of Mathematicians been set?"

Each International Congress of Mathematicians takes place at a different time.

But it's basically in August and September.

The last 28th International Congress of Mathematicians was held in Yenjing, China.

I don't know where it will be held this time.

"The time has not yet been decided, but the location has been set a few months ago, in Los Angeles, the United States. Bao Songquan replied.

Los Angeles, United States.

Gu Lu silently wrote down this place in his heart.

At next year's International Congress of Mathematicians, Gu Lu will definitely go there.

There is now less than a year to go until the conference.

There are some things that can already be prepared.

Gu Lu and Bao Songquan chatted for a while, and seeing that the time was about the same, Gu Lu said goodbye and left.

…………

Gu Lu returned to the professor's apartment.

The apartment was obviously cleaned by the cleaning aunt every once in a while, and even if no one lived in it for five months, there was not much dust in the room.

Gu Lu took a break in the apartment.

It's almost dinnertime.

Gu Lu found Su Xi's WeChat and sent a message, "Do you have time tonight, come out for a meal?"

Su Xi quickly replied, "Teacher Gu, are you back?"

Gu Lu: "I just came back today, I'll leave after a while, do you have time tonight, I'm in for a treat!"

Su Xi: "There is time at any time. ”

Thereupon.

Gu Lu and Su Xi, two dinner friends, got together again.

As for the location, it is a home-cooked restaurant that Gu Lu has chosen.

After a full meal.

Gu Lu sent Su Xi, who was slightly drunk and blushing, back to the villa next to Pan's house.

Next.

Gu Lu drove directly to the Institute of the Chinese Academy of Sciences in the center of the city.

It's not the first time Gu Lu has been to that place in the Chinese Academy of Sciences.

Even when he was researching the quantum computer project, Gu Lu lived at the Chinese Academy of Sciences for half a year.

Thereupon.

Gu Lu came to the Chinese Academy of Sciences with ease.

On the way to the physical materials laboratory after getting out of the car, Gu Lu met an acquaintance.

That acquaintance was none other than Ai Liang from the Quantum Optics Laboratory of the Chinese Academy of Sciences.

Ai Liang saw a slightly familiar figure walking opposite from a distance, and he was uncertain at first, but when he walked into a little and fell on Gu Lu's unignorable appearance, Ai Liang must have been sure.

"Gu Lu, it's really you!"

Ai Liang ran up in small steps and greeted Gu Lu cordially.
