Chapter 156: Riemann Conjecture

After the class in the afternoon, Tang Chuan went directly to Professor Hua's office, although Professor Hua gave a high mathematics class to freshmen, but he was a full professor in the Department of Mathematics, and the Department of Mathematics of Huhai University was one of the top three in the country.

Professor Hua has his own independent office, and after Tang Chuan knocked on the door, he heard a vigorous and powerful voice coming from inside.

"Please come in!"

Tang Chuan pushed the door and entered, and saw an old man with gray hair, who was performing something on the whiteboard on a wall.

Tang Chuan's eyes quickly swept over the piece of paper in the old man's hand, and it suddenly became clear in his heart that Professor Hua was calculating the topic of the Tianfang Group Mathematics Competition.

Looking at what he is writing, it should be the second question of the third question, to prove an inequality.

Looking at Professor Hua's solution ideas, it is still very decent, and it is estimated that it will be over in about ten minutes, so Tang Chuan is waiting on the side.

Only seven or eight minutes later, Professor Hua finished solving the question, turned around and saw Tang Chuan, a little stunned, and asked, "Classmate, do you have something to do with me?"

"Professor Hua, I'm Tang Chuan from Class 2 of Computer Science and Technology, you took a leave of absence from class this morning, I heard that Professor Hua came to me?" Tang Chuan said respectfully.

Professor Hua took off his reading glasses, looked Tang Chuan up and down, and then said, "You are Tang Chuan?

Tang Chuan replied: "Yes, I have completely mastered all the knowledge points of the advanced mathematics course. For all your courses, I would like to take a leave of absence. Of course, I will take the exam. ”

This is undoubtedly very provocative for a university professor, but if a student has really mastered the whole knowledge of his course, it seems that it is okay to take such a leave, but there is no doubt that it is unprecedented.

Professor Hua was not shocked by Tang Chuan's words, the old man smiled indifferently, and asked rhetorically: "Just because you won the first place in the preliminary round of the Tianfang Group Mathematics Competition, you think that you have mastered all the knowledge points of advanced mathematics courses?"

Tang Chuan just felt that Professor Hua should know something, and sure enough, the results of the preliminary round had been transmitted to Professor Hua from which channel.

"Professor Hua, your question is not valid. I have mastered all the knowledge points of the advanced mathematics course, and I have no relationship with me winning the first place in the preliminary round of the Tianfang Group Mathematics Competition, and the two are not mutually causal. ”

Professor Hua still smiled and said, "You're right. So, how do you prove that you have mastered all the points of advanced mathematics?"

"You can test me with a test question, and if I pass with a perfect score, can it be counted as proof?" Tang Chuan said.

Professor Hua tilted his head and looked at Tang Chuan, then nodded and said, "It's very in line with the school's exam rules, but I don't plan to adopt it." ”

Professor Hua began to rummage through the pile of papers on the table, then took out a piece of paper, looked at it, and said, "Some people say that you are a mathematical genius, I have seen the answers you gave in the competition, and the idea is indeed very novel.

So, I don't want to test you with ordinary advanced math knowledge points. Last month, a London mathematician claimed to have proved the Riemann hypothesis.

Many people have questioned his proof, and I personally think that he did not succeed in proving it, but as an 89-year-old famous mathematician, I have the courage to do this, and I admire him.

Now, I want to see what other people call a mathematical genius, whether an 18-year-old has the courage to do this?"

Tang Chuan was stunned by Professor Hua's words, and he bet that Professor Hua was deliberately making things difficult for himself, and Riemann guessed that there were seven major problems in the field of mathematics, and let himself prove it.

The Riemann conjecture is a hypothesis about prime numbers. Prime numbers are numbers like 2, 3, 5, 7, 11, which are only divisible by 1 or by itself. On the real number axis, as the value increases, the frequency of these prime numbers decreases, and the distance between the two adjacent numbers increases. Riemann found that the key to understanding the law of prime number distribution lies in the set of numbers: all the zeros of the Riemann ΞΆ function, or the value of s when ΞΆ(s)=0.

The premise of Riemann's formula is that the real part of all s at ΞΆ(s)=0 is 1/2.

Riemann himself proved that this property was correct in the case of the first few prime numbers. Over the past century, it has been computationally proven that this property is also true for many large prime numbers. However, no one has yet been able to prove by formal, rigorous proof that this property is eternal and unlimited.

Although he has integrated the knowledge and information of hundreds of scientists in the field of cutting-edge science and technology, it is impossible to prove the Riemann conjecture.

Professor Hua asked himself to prove that he would get his permission to take a leave of absence for all of his courses, which was a good enough trick.

Seeing Professor Hua looking at himself with interest, thinking of his last sentence just now, Tang Chuan suddenly felt a sense of pride and said, "Okay." I'll try. ”

"Hahaha, good, good, sure enough, the newborn calf is not afraid of tigers, and has ambition!" Professor Hua laughed loudly, as if he had picked up a treasure.

Tang Chuan only felt that his face was black, and he had a feeling that he had been fooled.

Professor Hua smiled, raised his hand, and said, "Okay, you can go, when you can prove it, come to me again." ”

"What about your class?" Tang Chuan asked.

"You don't have to come to the school, as long as you prove it, of course I will give you a full score. But ......"

"Why does this old professor like to talk so much?" Tang Chuan was speechless for a while by Professor Hua's big gasp.

"However, if you don't prove it, I'll give you a failing course. After Professor Hua finished speaking, he picked up the teacup on the table and drank the tea.

"Huh......? I don't have a packing ticket to prove it, how can I get the credit for your course if you fail the course?" Tang Chuan was a little dumbfounded.

Professor Hua smiled and said, "You can make up for the exam! Then you have to come to my class honestly next semester." ”

Tang Chuan gritted his teeth and said, "Okay, I'm leaving." ”

Tang Chuan didn't want to talk more to this old slippery head, anyway, before he proved Riemann's conjecture, he was eaten by him.

Then simply don't go to class, the big deal is to make up the exam, and if you don't believe that you have answered all the questions correctly, Professor Hua can continue to fail the course?

Tang Chuan walked far away, and he heard Professor Hua's uncontrollable laughter.

But what Tang Chuan didn't know was that after he left, Professor Hua made a phone call.

"I asked him to prove the Riemann conjecture, yes, you heard you right. I'm not crazy, the 89-year-old people have the courage to prove that our mathematical geniuses in China should also know the difficulties.

Even if he is not Chen Jingrui, he must have the courage to challenge the seven major problems of mathematics, otherwise he will be blind to such a good mathematical talent.

Besides, what if he succeeds in proving it? Is this the pride of our Chinese?"

"Don't worry, a genius is a genius, if you don't make a splash today, you will be a blockbuster tomorrow. A true genius will not be destroyed by the wind, and a true genius will only fly higher with the clouds when the wind rises. ”

"What? Do you want a reporter to come and interview him? Don't, after all, it hasn't been proven yet, if it is reported in advance, the final result will not be proven, but it will hit him, and it will really become a killing.

After all, Tang Chuan's situation is different from that of the London mathematician, and this will also have a negative impact on our school. ”

"Okay, I'll keep you updated on the progress. ”

......

Tang Chuan walked on campus, and the more he thought about it, the more he felt that he seemed to be in the way of Professor Hua today, and he respected the university professor too much.

Who let his predecessors never go to college, he always has great respect for these university professors, but he didn't expect to be exploited by Professor Hua and let himself be burdened with a thunder.

Think about Riemann's conjecture, Tang Chuan is really a bit big, this is really not an ordinary thunder!

"The cool night misses Chenghe for you......" The mobile phone ringtone rang at this time, Tang Chuan took out his mobile phone and looked at it, it was Lin Jiahui calling.

After connecting the phone, I heard Lin Jiahui say, "Xiaochuan, have you come back from Dongjiang?" ”

Tang Chuan smiled and said, "Yes, I just finished class." By the way, did that Wang Daofeng make any new moves later?"

Lin Jiahui said: "I was about to tell you about this. Your brother Qin went to thank him, but Wang Daofeng said that you are the nobleman, and your brother Qin has not said anything about your situation, so Wang Daofeng said that your origin and family are the Tao.

He also said that let's have a good relationship with you, and it will be of great use in the future. How did you say he knew about your family situation? This frightened your brother Qin again. ”

"Sister-in-law wasn't bluffed. Wang Daofeng must have other channels for obtaining intelligence, besides, I made a record for the traffic police that day, and after obtaining these basic information, I can know the further family situation after a little further investigation. ”

"In this way, there should be at least one person in Wang Daofeng's gang who specializes in obtaining information, otherwise even if there is information to check, it will not be so fast. ”

"My sister-in-law is really from a criminal police officer, so I guessed it. Let me tell you, behind Wang Daofeng, there is indeed a person, he is the chief physician of the Department of Psychology of the Affiliated Hospital of Huhai University of Chinese Medicine.

This man is likely to be an important figure in the gang, and his hypnotism is very powerful, and he can make people do something without realizing it. Tang Chuan said.

Lin Jiahui was stunned for a moment, and then asked, "How do you know? Haven't you been back to Dongjiang these days? How did you find out about this person so quickly?"

Tang Chuan had already prepared and explained: "This matter is purely a coincidence, before I returned to Dongjiang, I happened to buy a restaurant, but the equity transfer process had some twists and turns, yesterday I went back to Huhai to see the original shareholder, and found that she was hypnotized by someone, and wanted to terminate the contract with me." ”

"How do you know she's been hypnotized?"

"Didn't I tell you, I have studied ancient Chinese medicine, and I know a lot about the art of Xuanmen, which is able to find people who are under hypnosis. I cracked the hypnosis and learned about the concern from the shareholders. ”

"Then how do you know that caring about Yu and Wang Daofeng's affairs is related?"

"So it's a coincidence, after I left your house that day, I went to Wang Daofeng to squat at a while, and I saw that Guan Yu and Wang Daofeng left the numerology club together. I didn't think much about it at the time, but when I checked about it, I found that the photos I found turned out to be the people I had seen. ”

"I said you should be a police officer. Yes, good luck, the mind is also bright, and the head of analysis is the Tao. However, you have said so much, and there is no evidence. ”
