Chapter 489: The Report Begins

Chapter 489

The fact that the vice president personally sat in the chair is enough to show that Tsinghua University attaches enough importance to this report meeting.

A five-star hotel near the university was rented directly by Tsinghua University, which has deep pockets, and was used to entertain scholars from all over the world during the conference.

Time is tight.

From the confirmation of the time of the report meeting to the official convening of the report meeting, there was only less than a month.

But Tsinghua University's efficiency also lives up to its reputation as one of the world's top universities.

It's like a huge machine, running in an orderly manner.

By mid-April, all the arrangements had been made.

Mathematicians from all over the world who participated in the conference also came to China one after another.

This is the first time Cheng Nuo has appeared in public since Ramanujan's award ceremony two years ago.

The theme of the seminar was the "BSD Conjecture", which attracted worldwide attention.

Therefore, most of the mathematicians who received the invitation chose to accept the invitation from Tsinghua University if they did not have anything too important.

A total of 587 mathematicians from more than 60 countries and regions around the world.

Among them, half of the mathematicians are excellent mathematicians in their respective fields of mathematics.

This lineup is no less than any medium-sized academic conference.

Even at the level of high-end mathematicians, there are still wins.

After all, it is not easy to invite one or two Philippine award bigwigs to a middle-level academic conference.

But this time, there are four Filipino Award winners who came to participate in this report meeting!

Except for Professor Fresnel, who may have come to support Cheng Nuo, the remaining three all came for the content of Cheng Nuo's report.

They were also curious to see how a young man in his early twenties could prove the BSD conjecture of the century in just two years!

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

A number of top mathematicians in the field of mathematics came to Tsinghua University.

This kind of scene can be traced back to the International Congress of Mathematicians held in China in 08.

In recent years, it is all Chinese mathematicians who have gone to other countries to participate in lectures and academic conferences.

It's like this, so that scholars from other countries come all the way to listen to a lecture.

And they are all the top scholars in their respective countries.

This kind of scenario......

In the field of mathematics, it is not an exaggeration to say that it is a rare occurrence in ten years.

At the same time, Yenching University, next door, is about to leave with envy for Tsinghua University to host such a high-end academic report.

They regret it!

If Cheng Nuo could be snatched to their school six years ago, now it must be a different scene!

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

April 14th.

There is less than a day left until the presentation.

Cheng Nuo came to the office of Dean Ding of the Building of the Academy of Sciences to discuss the specific matters of tomorrow's report meeting.

The hospitality and security of those mathematicians were not what Cheng Nuo was worried about.

Cheng Nuo is only responsible for the specific content of the report meeting.

After checking the PPT that Cheng Nuo was preparing to give a speech several times, and found that there was nothing wrong, he pulled out the USB flash drive plugged into the computer and handed it to Cheng Nuo, thought about it for a while, and spoke in a worried tone.

"Actually, I didn't expect that this report meeting would eventually turn into such a big battle. At that time, we just wanted to invite a few mathematicians from the world to come and make up the numbers, and the main body was still some colleagues in China. But now, it seems that this group of mathematicians in China has become a soy sauce fighter, such a big battle......"

Dean Ding smiled helplessly.

Cheng Nuo smiled, knowing what Dean Ding was worried about, so he said with relief, "Dean, don't worry, I haven't seen any big scenes." I can still hold on to this battle easily. ”

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

April 15th, 7 p.m.

The auditorium of Tsinghua University is as bright as day.

Many mathematicians, dressed in suits and ties, walked into the auditorium in twos and threes, sat down in their seats, spread out their notebooks, put them on their laps, and waited quietly for the lecture to begin.

Suddenly, the entire auditorium went dark. Then a light hits the stage.

Cheng Nuo wore a handsome and straight suit and walked to the center of the stage.

"Hello everyone, I'm Cheng Nuo. ”

All the lights in the auditorium were brightened, and applause rang out in the applause.

Looking at the crowd under the stage, Cheng Nuo had a faint smile on his face.

His gaze swept gently.

Cheng Nuo saw Dean Ding and Professor Fang sitting in the first row, and also saw Professor Fresnel who came to support himself.

After briefly saying the opening remarks, Cheng Nuo went straight to the topic.

So many mathematicians came all the way over, and they definitely wouldn't listen to Cheng Nuo's nagging, so Cheng Nuo went straight to the dry goods.

"For the proof of the BSD conjecture, I will make it a simple quantile of three parts, namely elliptic curves, abelian clusters, and modal groups. ”

Below, I will describe the tasks of each of the three parts, as well as the specific derivation process. Guys, look at the big screen!"

"First of all, for elliptic curves, the first task we had to solve was ......"

Cheng Nuo talked about it one by one.

Many mathematicians below are quickly recording in small notebooks.

Cheng Nuo's 214-page paper has been read by most of the mathematicians present.

But it's one thing to see it, it's another thing to understand it.

After all, for many people, the whole formula paper is still too obscure.

Now Cheng Nuo's personal explanation is much more vivid than looking at those dry formula symbols.

At the same time, you can also sort out some of the doubts you had before.

And the dozen or so bigwigs sitting in the first few rows also stared at Cheng Nuo's explanation without blinking.

When you encounter a wonderful place, you can't help but admire.

"This place is simply a stroke of genius, using the common ground between the two theorems, it is easy to establish a connection!"

"Why didn't I think of it! Wouldn't replacing the first three formulas with characters solve this problem?"

For Cheng Nuo, this group of bigwigs was extremely surprised.

Two hours later......

Cheng Nuo's throat was dry, and he finally finished all the content on the PPT.

The blackboard next to the curtain was also wiped back and forth four times by Cheng Nuo.

After taking a sip of water, Cheng Nuo moistened his throat and said with a smile, "The proof part of the BSD conjecture is finished, if you have any questions, you can directly raise your hand and ask." ”

As soon as Cheng Nuo's voice fell, he saw the position of the back rows of the audience, and a hand was quickly raised.

"Okay, that's it, sir. ”

The man stood up and was a middle-aged man with a big back and round-rimmed glasses.

The little girl of ceremonies wearing a cheongsam handed the microphone to the man.

"Mr. Cheng, I am a professor from the University of Tokyo in the island country, and I have a question about the proof process of the BSD conjecture that you described earlier. The island professor stared at Cheng Nuo, his eyes were not good, and asked.

Cheng Nuo shrugged his shoulders and stretched out his hand to signal, "Please speak!"
