Chapter 245

At present, the vast majority of mathematicians do not know whether the content of Gu Lu's paper is correct.

In other words, it is not clear whether Gu Lu has really succeeded in proving the BAB conjecture.

The reason why Professor Lucas was able to confirm it was because Professor Lucas and Professor Aiken, who was involved in the verification of the paper, were good friends.

Professor Aiken told Professor Lucas the news.

Professor Lucas was so surprised that he contacted Simon urgently, despite the fact that it was still dark.

Now, it is clear that Gu Lu has successfully proved the BAB conjecture only a few people, including Simon, Lucas, and Professor Aiken.

Therefore, the comment area under Gu Lu's paper "Proof of the BAB Conjecture" is obviously polarized.

Most people think that Gu Lu is grandstanding, using the famous conjecture of the 'BAB conjecture' to attract attention and achieve some ulterior purpose.

After all, they didn't think that a young man as young as twenty-four years old would have the strength to prove the BAB conjecture.

However, there are still a few people who firmly believe that Gu Lu's paper is not grandstanding, but that he has really succeeded in proving the BAB conjecture.

Take, for example, Professor Charlie of Harvard University.

Since Professor Charlie has seen Gu Lu's attainments in the minimalist program, Professor Charlie has known that Gu Lu's strength is definitely not limited to performance.

Therefore, no matter how shocking what Gu Lu did, Professor Charlie would still choose to believe it.

There are not a few mathematicians like Professor Charlie who choose to believe in Gu Lu, but there are not many of them.

The two sides disagreed in the comment section.

But the current situation is not enough to scold.

In the eyes of both parties, once someone verifies Gu Lu's paper, the truth will be obvious.

Whether Gu Lu is grandstanding or has real talents, you can see when the time comes.

Now there is no point in arguing.

So both sides waited quietly.

…………

Since Gu Lu's paper was in the first place, Simon clicked directly on it.

He wanted to see how Gu Lu completed the proof of the BAB conjecture before him.

Simon watched quickly.

After all, Simon was also working on the BAB conjecture.

Therefore, for some of the content expounded by Gu Lu in the paper, Simon can understand what Gu Lu is talking about in this part and its purpose with a simple glance.

"Do you want to start with a minimalist program?"

Simon touched his chin and muttered something quietly.

After only reading the first two pages of the paper, Simon understood Gu Lu's intentions.

Unlike Simon, Gu Lu started with a minimal model program.

Simon, on the other hand, is a direct study of the Fano cluster.

Simon and Gu Lu take two different approaches.

But which of the two methods is better or worse, Simon can't draw a conclusion before reading Gu Lu's article.

However, I have to admit that Gu Lu's choice of a minimal model program to start with is quite smack-smacking in Simon's opinion.

Because he didn't realize that the minimal model program could also be related to the BAB conjecture.

Simon, at a speed of almost ten lines at a glance, continued to look back.

In fact, when reading Gu Lu's paper, Simon had the intention of finding faults.

But to his disappointment.

In Gu Lu's paper, there are a few minor faults, but they are harmless.

As for the big problem, Simon didn't find any of them.

But think about it, mathematicians of the level like myself and Gu Lu will not easily show the results of the paper without being completely sure.

Without Simon realizing it, Simon had already subconsciously regarded Gu Lu as an existence of the same level as him.

"Well, really...... A pretty ingenious formula!"

"That's okay! Hey, yes, it's going to simplify a lot of calculations. ”

"Through the flipping of the singularity theory, a universal model of Fano clusters is constructed. This person's thoughts ......"

Simon sighed as he read.

To tell the truth, if it weren't for the fact that he and Gu Lu were in competition, he would definitely cheer for Gu Lu loudly now.

Because, there are many opinions and ideas written by Gu Lu in this paper, even Simon is ashamed of himself.

Even, as he continued to look back, the faint unwillingness in Simon's heart gradually subsided.

A 54-page paper, if someone else reads it, it will take at least half a day or even a day to read it.

But Simon's words, three hours is enough.

After reading it, Simon stared at the computer screen in a daze and was silent for a long time.

Gu Lu's paper, logically and theoretically, does not have any problems.

Simon couldn't find even a single piece of evidence to support Gu Lu's error.

Even, Simon didn't dare to pat his chest and say that the proof paper he was going to complete in ten days would be no weaker than Gu Lu's one in terms of quality.

"What a rival I underestimated!" Simon shook his head and smiled bitterly.

At this moment, Simon no longer has the slightest contempt for Gu Lu.

Clicking on the comments below, Simon looked at the two parties below who were arguing with each other, frowned, and felt a little bored in his heart.

So I typed a line directly and posted it in the comment area.

"The process of proving the BAB conjecture in this paper is correct. Gu Lu, you won!"

After leaving such a comment, Simon closed the computer, stood in front of the blackboard, looked at the schedule of the two or three projects left, and crossed his arms in thought.

After a long hesitation, Simon continued to work on the BAB conjecture.

The BAB conjecture has been overcome, and even if Simon completes the rest of the work and proves the BAB conjecture, it doesn't make much sense.

But Simon chose to start and finish well.

Since BAB guessed that the title of the first cerifier had been obtained by Gu Lu, what Simon did was to become the second.

The main thing is that Simon doesn't want to lose nearly five months of painstaking research in vain.

Simon picked up a piece of chalk and pondered for a few seconds before continuing his research on the BAB conjecture.

…………

On ArXiv, many mathematicians saw Simon's comment and instantly exploded.

Simon became the first mathematician to publicly state that Gu Lu had successfully proved the BAB conjecture.

Dramatically, many mathematicians learned that Simon was also working on the proof of the BAB conjecture.

What does this mean?

Many mathematicians don't understand.

But after that, more than a dozen professors, including Professor Lucas, Professor Aiken, and Professor Disica, have publicly stated the correctness of Gu Lu's paper.

Eventually, New Advances in Mathematics also posted headlines like "The BAB Conjecture Has Been Proven" on its official website to warm up for the next issue of the journal.

So many people are openly saying that the BAB conjecture has been proven, and so far no one has come out against it.

The group of mathematicians who remained on the sidelines instantly understood.

It seems that the BAB conjecture was really proved by a Chinese mathematician named Gu Lu!

Geometry shakes!
