Chapter 391

"Because, that paper was written by me!" Cheng Nuo shrugged and smiled.

After hearing Cheng Nuo's words, the black classmate's expression changed from the original nervousness to relaxation.

He laughed dryly, "Classmate, are you kidding, this level of thesis is not something that a graduate student can write." ”

Cheng Nuoshen nodded approvingly, "That paper is indeed not something that a graduate student can write." Because, when I wrote this paper, I was still an undergraduate. ”

Black classmates: "......"

How can this guy be so shameless?

It's obviously not his, but if they have to say it is his, this is no different from plagiarism! It's a shame for them to be at MIT.

The black classmate instantly decided that he was in charge of this matter...... Fart!

Because of the "shameless" comparison with Cheng Nuo, his behavior is not much better.

He turned his head and said to Professor Barney in embarrassment, "Professor Barney, some of the theories I just said do borrow some from the paper that this classmate said, but I promise that most of the content was my own idea!"

Professor Barney didn't speak, and after picking up the mobile phone on the desktop to operate for a while, he raised his head and asked Cheng Nuo with a smile, "I don't know your name, classmate?"

Cheng Nuo replied politely, "Professor, my name is Cheng Nuo, and I'm from Huaguo!"

"Huaguo, Cheng Nuo......" Professor Barney muttered to himself, bowed his head to make sure, and then abruptly stood up from his chair.

"You are this Cheng Nuo!" he pointed at Cheng Nuo, his tone mixed with inexplicable meaning.

The black classmate, who didn't know what was going on, looked at the phone that Professor Barney had placed on his desk with a lit screen.

That stops at the interface of a paper.

The title of the paper is familiar to him, which is the article he and Cheng Nuo argued about just now - "When the analytic rank is 1, the proof of the weak BSD conjecture"!

Under the title, there are two names.

He had never paid attention to this, except that the paper was written by two Chinese mathematicians.

The black classmates looked at the two names:

Fang Ruoyu, Cheng Nuo

The black classmate's gaze became blank.

He kept muttering, "Impossible, this can't be, he's a graduate student?!"

............

The black classmate left in shame.

Professor Barney asked Cheng Nuo to sit in the original position of the black classmate, and Professor Barney smiled faintly and sat opposite him.

On Cheng Nuo's side, there were a few classmates who were watching the excitement and eating melons.

Professor Barney looked at Cheng Nuo with a kind smile, "Is that paper really written by you?"

"There's no need for me to lie to you. Cheng Nuo smiled and said, "That was the result of a year of research between me and my teacher, and it was officially published in May this year." ”

Professor Barney knew what Cheng Nuo meant.

A year ago, Cheng Nuo was still an undergraduate, but he completed such a difficult academic research.

Now after that year......

Professor Barney looked at Cheng Nuo with burning eyes, revealing his love for talent, "Your main focus should be on the direction of number theory, right?"

Cheng Nuo scratched his head, "It should ...... Not really. ”

Professor Barney was stunned, "And how did you solve the BSD conjecture?"

"My teacher, Professor Fang Ruoyu, is an expert in the field of applied mathematics, and the weak conjecture of the BSD conjecture can be regarded as one of the important conjectures in the field of applied mathematics, so I followed Professor Fang to do it. Cheng Nuo thought for a moment and replied.

"Okay. Professor Barney decided to ask a different question, "Are you interested in number theory?"

"Interested!" Cheng Nuo replied without hesitation this time.

As the most popular field of mathematics, number theory is also a branch of mathematics with the most famous conjectures in the world.

Professor Barney smiled, as if he had expected this to be asked.

Then, while it was hot, he hit the railroad and said, "How about being my student?"

Even if this is the first time to meet, judging from Cheng Nuo's various performances, this son will definitely not be a thing in the pool in the future!

There's no limit to what lies ahead.

Like him now, he has been mediocre for more than 40 years, and he just barely survives with a Ramanujan Award.

But now, Professor Barney is not worried that Cheng Nuo will reject his proposal.

However, Professor Barney waited for five or six seconds, but did not hear Cheng Nuo's response.

He looked at him quizzically.

Cheng Nuo scratched his head and said hesitantly, "Professor Barney, this doesn't seem to be very good?"

"Why isn't it good?!" Professor Barney glared, "The choice of a mentor is completely voluntary, is there anyone who forces you to fail, or do you disdain me as your mentor?"

"No, no, no!" Cheng Nuo waved his hand again and again, he couldn't afford this crime!

He pondered his tone for a moment and spoke slowly, "Professor Barney, actually, I have another identity, I'm Professor Fresnel's assistant this year?"

"Professor Fresnel?" Professor Barney muttered, then his eyes widened, "You mean that Professor Fresnel!"

Cheng Nuo smiled bitterly, "It should be the Professor Fresnel you said." ”

Professor Fresnel's assistant?

If Cheng Nuo really holds this position, then nominally, he already belongs to Professor Fresnel's students. Even if Professor Fresnel, as an honorary professor at MIT, it is impossible for him to be included in this year's list of graduate supervisors.

Snatching the disciples of other professors is breaking the rules of MIT, and besides, the object of the competition is the Professor Fresnel.

Professor Barney wouldn't be unwise enough to do so.

It's just that what makes him suspicious is ......

He asked in a surprised tone, "Isn't Professor Fresnel majoring in geometry, how did you become his assistant, Cheng Nuo?"

Cheng Nuo replied in a flat tone, "I have a lot of research in the field of geometry. ”

Professor Barney: "......"

Missing a gifted student, Professor Barney said in his heart that he was not disappointed, which was naturally false.

Especially when I knew that Cheng Nuo had a strong talent in almost all branches of mathematics, the feeling of heartache was even stronger.

But it can't be helped, as a professor with a number of 13, he knows that he can't compete with Professor Fresnel.

He smiled wryly and shook his head, "It's a pity that I can't teach you personally!"

Cheng Nuo said politely, "The professor will definitely find students who are better than me!"

Professor Barney waved his hand, "Don't comfort me like that. A student like you is rare in a hundred years!" he took out a business card from his pocket and handed it to Cheng Nuo.

"There is my address and contact information on it, if you encounter any questions related to number theory in the future, please come to me to answer, I will definitely teach you!"

Cheng Nuo took the business card, and he received this favor, "Definitely!"

There are countless mathematicians at MIT, and it's a huge network of relationships that is especially important to every mathematician.

Cheng Nuo does not intend to waste this resource.

In the field of number theory, its attraction to Cheng Nuo has always existed. In the future, there will be no less nagging Professor Barney!
