Chapter 0416 Just Do It!

After Tao Li finished speaking, he looked at the two people with his eyes, wanting to see how the two people would react.

"Brother...... Goldbach conjecture?Mr. Tao, are you talking about the Goldbach conjecture that no one has proven for hundreds of years?" Zheng Tongya was stunned, and then said with a look of surprise.

"Teacher Tao, do you mean, are you going to guide us to prove Goldbach's conjecture?" Zhang Xingchen also looked incredulous, although he had already made a prediction in his heart before this, he never thought that it would be such a big proposition!

After all, that's Goldbach's conjecture!

"Of course, it's the Goldbach conjecture you are familiar with, isn't there any other conjecture called that name in the world of mathematics?" said with a smile. The reaction of the two men was exactly what he expected.

"Is it the one that Chen Jingrun wanted to prove but didn't prove?" Zheng Tongya still didn't believe it and continued to ask.

"That's right!" replied with a nod of his head.

"it, Mr. Tao, you want to take the two of us to do this, it's really fake!" Zheng Tongya, who finally began to believe, couldn't help but burst into foul language.

"Mr. Tao, are you serious? Goldbach's conjecture is not so easy to prove. Zhang Xingchen also looked at Tao Li and asked seriously.

"Why, you don't believe me?" Tao Li asked with a smile.

Zhang Xingchen and Zheng Tongya glanced at each other again, then nodded heavily, and said at the same time, "Of course I believe it!"

The two of them have known Tao Li for more than a year or two, especially Zhang Xingchen, who has an almost crazy trust in Tao Li, which is just like religious belief, Tao Li is his spiritual leader, what Tao Li says, Zhang Xingchen believes!

When Tao Li took over the 18th class for the first time, who would have thought that he would be able to take the 18th class step by step from the class with the lowest grades to the first place in the province in the college entrance examination?

Who would have thought that Tao Li would be able to take them to the provincial team, be selected for the national team, and then win the gold medal in the IMO for the first training mathematics competition?

Who would have thought that Tao Li said that if he wanted to take them to write a paper, he could really get that paper published in a top domestic mathematics journal?

Therefore, in Zhang Xingchen's opinion, there is nothing Tao Li can't do, as long as you follow Tao Li, you will definitely not be disappointed!

"Okay, since you two are willing to believe me, then I will also give you a thorough understanding, I can give you guidance on any problems you encounter, but just like the last time you wrote your paper, most of the work still needs to be done by yourself, and I am only responsible for providing you with technical support. ”

Tao Li looked at the two and said solemnly.

"Yes, what does Mr. Tao want us to do, we will do as you say. ”

"Yes, Mr. Tao, even if you assign us a task, we will do it. ”

Zhang Xingchen and Zheng Tongya hurriedly replied. With such a profound topic, the two of them have never been exposed to such an important proposition as Goldbach's conjecture, and it is impossible to start if they really let them do it themselves.

"Okay, then I'll tell you about my arrangement. You probably don't know what Goldbach's conjecture is, and your task now is to use half a month to fully understand what Goldbach's conjecture is, and at the same time understand how many ideas there are to prove this conjecture. I will prepare the appropriate materials for you during this time. ”

Tao Li thought for a moment, and then said. Although the final proof of Goldbach's conjecture has not been reached, there are many derived proofs, and if Zhang Xingchen and Zheng Tongya do not understand these, the subsequent proofs will definitely not be completed.

"I'll give you a list tonight and I'll give you a list tomorrow. You can also go to the library to check these materials, and if the library database is not enough, you can also contact your classmates at Yan University to help. The three of us meet once a week to take stock of the progress, and I'll adjust the plan based on your progress. ”

Tao Li continued.

"In addition, you need to learn more about number theory, and there will definitely be many theories that you don't know to use in the subsequent proof process. For the time being, I'll only think about that, and we'll talk about the follow-up questions later, what do you think?"

"Okay, we all listen to Mr. Tao. Zhang Xingchen and Zheng Tongya listened and quickly recorded.

"By the way, there is one more thing I want to tell you, don't tell others about it for the time being, and they won't talk about it, Mr. Chen, and wait until we have made substantial progress, and then tell them. Tao Li finally emphasized.

"Hmm!"

"Got it. ”

The two of them nodded and said.

After coming out of the conference room, the three of them returned to the office together, and Tao Li began to check the information related to Goldbach's conjecture for the first time, of course, he obtained it directly through the system, and he only stayed at the initial stage of this conjecture, if he didn't know more, what would he talk about to guide Zhang Xingchen and them.

In the following time, Tao Li's life was enriched again, in addition to the daily review class, he also paid attention to Zhang Xingchen's teaching progress, and the rest of the time was used to understand the relevant knowledge of Goldbach's conjecture, and the textbook of number theory was also picked up by him.

And Zhang Xingchen and Zheng Tongya, their daily lives are also very fulfilling, because they do not need to undertake teaching tasks independently for the time being, so they have enough time to prepare for their dissertations.

Half a month passed quickly, and they would communicate once a week, although Zhang Xingchen and Zheng Tongya spent a lot more time studying than Tao Li, but because Tao Li had systematic help, the speed of mastery was naturally much faster than theirs.

In this way, every time he reports, Tao Li can give targeted guidance and task arrangements to the two of them, and the knowledge reserve in the early stage of the paper is also advancing step by step according to Tao Li's expectations.

"The information I just gave you is something I sorted out during this time, you can go back and take a look. In addition, I also attached the next stage of the task at the end of the information, you can follow the task I gave, if there is any problem, we can communicate at any time. After listening to the reports of the two people, Tao Li sent the information in his hand to the two and said.

"Then Mr. Tao already has a clue about proving Goldbach's conjecture?" Zheng Tongya asked. During this time, they have been consulting the literature on this conjecture, and the more they look at it, the more they can feel the greatness of this conjecture, and it is no wonder that no one has been able to give a complete proof for so many years.

Since Tao Li asked them to come over to study this topic, he should have his own ideas about the proof process.

"Of course, I'll go back tonight and sort out my thoughts. Tao Li replied with a smile.

After such a long time of preparation, Tao Li felt that he was already capable of reading the proof process of this conjecture, so he decided to go back and exchange the proof process of Goldbach's conjecture.
