Chapter 453

In the past year, there have been two major tremors in the geometric world.

The first time was at last year's International Congress of Mathematicians, when Cheng Nuo's theorem was proposed.

And another time, just now, the Jacobian conjecture was declared a successful proof.

Attentive people found that the first author of the paper that announced the proof of Jacobi's conjecture was a familiar name - NuoCheng.

Cheng Nuo, or Cheng Nuo!

Since the end of that academic exchange activity, there has been little news about Cheng Nuo from the outside world.

Many people thought that Cheng Nuo felt that he was in the limelight and was ready to be silent for a while.

And it turned out to be exactly what everyone expected.

But what they didn't expect was that Cheng Nuo would directly make a "big move" as soon as he was born!

Cheng Nuo proved Jacoby's conjecture!

Five leading mathematicians in the field of geometry have personally demonstrated this, and no one will doubt the truth of the matter.

After half a year of silence, that kind of energy shook half of the mathematical world like a volcanic eruption.

On September 10, 2023, Cheng Nuo just celebrated his 21st birthday.

And Jacobi guessed that it was his birthday gift to himself.

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

September 15th.

Institute of Mathematics and Physics, University of Cambridge.

Alding frowned and looked at the resignation letter in his hand, and looked at the young man standing in front of him, "Can't you stay?"

Cheng Nuo smiled, "I have exceeded the one-semester exchange student period. It's been more than ten days since the Massachusetts Institute of Technology (MIT) started, and I'm going back to report. ”

"Then isn't it good for you to transfer directly to our Cambridge? Our Cambridge is not weaker than MIT, and if you stay in the graduate school, you will also get our resources tilted. ”

In the bottom of his heart, Alding still hopes that Cheng Nuo can stay.

Cheng Nuo had a wry smile on the corner of his mouth, "You don't want to think about it, will MIT agree?"

A word wakes up the dreamer.

Oldin instantly understood.

Now, it is no secret that Cheng Nuo proved the Jacobi conjecture.

If there is no such thing, it is difficult to get the MIT side to agree to Cheng Nuo's transfer to Cambridge University, but it is not impossible.

But as soon as this incident came out, it was impossible for the MIT side to agree to release him anyway.

Cheng Nuo opened his mouth and said, "To be honest, Professor Fresnel has urged me many times, otherwise I would still be able to stay in Cambridge for a few days." ”

"Alas!" Alding sighed, "Well, knowing that I can't do it, I won't force it." ”

"But ......" Alding threw Cheng Nuo's resignation letter into the trash and said with a smile, "I don't agree to your resignation!"

"I'll keep your status as a researcher, and I'll keep that office for you. Come back when you want to, I still hope to kill in the casino with you again!"

"Definitely!" Cheng Nuo smiled reluctantly, turned around and walked away.

Alding looked at Cheng Nuo's departing back, a little stunned in his heart.

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

September 18th.

Massachusetts Institute of Technology Laboratory Building.

"Senior Hull, good morning!" Cheng Nuo pushed open the door, carrying his office bag, and greeted Senior Hull, who was still sitting at the door.

Hull looked up and looked at Cheng Nuo, who was smiling brightly at him, but didn't react for a while.

He was stunned for a few seconds before he swallowed his saliva fiercely, "Cheng ...... Cheng Nuo, are you back?"

Cheng Nuo smiled, "What, you're not welcome?"

"No, no. Hull waved his hand and whispered, "I thought you wouldn't come." ”

"You wait, I called the teacher, and the teacher said that you are back and let you inform him as soon as possible. With that, Hull dialed Professor Fresnel's phone.

Ten minutes later, Professor Fresnel hurriedly pushed the door open.

Seeing Cheng Nuo, he first patted Cheng Nuo on the shoulder with laughter, "Haha, I know that that guy Alding doesn't dare not let go!

As he spoke, he pulled Cheng Nuo into his office.

After getting the news that Cheng Nuo proved Jacoby's conjecture, Fresnel has been worried about whether Cheng Nuo will stay in Cambridge all the time and will not come.

You must know that Cheng Nuo has obtained the status of a formal researcher at the Institute of Mathematics and Physics at Cambridge University, and he is just a small assistant accepted by him at MIT.

The status of the two is naturally very different.

Now that Cheng Nuo has returned, Professor Fresnel naturally can't treat Cheng Nuo with his original attitude.

But Cheng Nuo's identity is still a student, and Professor Fresnel is only an honorary professor at MIT, and he does not have the right to give Cheng Nuo the right to hold a higher position as a student.

Therefore, it is necessary to pay close attention to remove Cheng Nuo's student identity.

Professor Fresnel thought for a few seconds and said, "Cheng Nuo, with your current level, there is no point in continuing to study in graduate school. So my idea is to get you out of school as soon as possible. ”

Cheng Nuomo rubbed his chin, "Professor, I have no opinion." ”

Indeed, continuing to remain a student does not have any superfluous effect other than to make others look down on you.

However, if you want to graduate, you must submit a graduation thesis, just like at the undergraduate level.

Professor Fresnel's advice to Cheng Nuo was to submit his thesis proving Jacoby's conjecture as a graduation thesis.

In this case, it is still the title of the strongest graduation thesis in history.

But Cheng Nuo didn't plan to do that.

Cheng Nuo can't do this thing.

"Professor, I'm going to rewrite a thesis as my graduation thesis. Cheng Nuo said.

Professor Fresnel is not averse.

"Yes, but you have to hurry. ”

"No problem, a month is enough. ”

"By the way, the college is going to have you give a presentation on the proof of the Jacobi conjecture, what do you think?" asked Professor Fresnel.

Cheng Nuo frowned slightly, "I want to get my graduation thesis during this time, can you push it until after I finish writing my thesis." ”

Professor Fresnel nodded, "I'll talk to the academy, it should be fine." ”

In fact, as long as Cheng Nuo comes back, it will be the most satisfactory result, and the rest of the things can be discussed.

Otherwise, a talent who was finally recruited was finally picked by Cambridge University, and it was really a blood loss.

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

After resting for a few days, Cheng Nuo began to study again without asking about the world.

After choosing a topic for a day and deciding on the direction of your graduation thesis, you will start working unhurriedly.

The general direction of Cheng Nuo's graduation thesis is still related to geometry.

After all, geometry is the field I am most familiar with.

His three major achievements at present, in addition to the proof of the weak BSD conjecture, Cheng Nuo's theorem and the Jacobian conjecture, oh no, should now be called the Jacobian theorem, are all in the field of geometry.
