Speaking of strange people in the world of mathematics, in the eyes of most ordinary people, most mathematicians meet this standard. It is true that most mathematicians are dominated by odds, both in terms of habits and behavior. Actually, it's nothing, after all, the IQ of mathematics is relatively slightly higher than other people, so it's a very normal thing to have a little quirk.

Of course, if this criterion is changed to mathematicians as the audience, then the strange people in the mathematical world in the eyes of mathematicians are really strange people. Far away, Fermat, who was mischievous, wrote the conjecture of Fermat's Great Theorem on the edge of the book, and added a prank that he had a brilliant idea, but it was too small to write here. Recently, there is also the famous Russian mathematician Grigory Perelman, who proved Poincaré's conjecture, who is obviously recognized as the person who proved Poincaré's conjecture, can receive a prize of one million dollars, but people simply ignore these things, and even force them to live in seclusion. In fact, Perelman's life was quite poor, eating a little black bread every day and drinking cheap brand of yogurt.

Of course, in Junxin's eyes, in fact, the Shi Wanxiong mentioned by Professor Yau Chengtong just now is also a strange person in the mathematical world. Speaking of Shi Wanxiong, many people in later generations have forgotten this person. Professor Wan Xiong was a well-known person in the mathematics community at that time. He was the most proud disciple of Professor Yau Chengtong, and his status was even higher than that of Professor Cao Dongping, who later caused a stir because of the proof of Poincaré's conjecture, but this man had learned from Perelman a long time ago and lived a reclusive life.

After living in seclusion, Shi Wanxiong does not participate in any work and does not receive any guests, but once a week he visits the university library to check the latest research results. Half of his college classmates and only two or three friends have now begun to use a combination of mathematics and physics to guess multidimensional geometric manifolds that go further than Poincaré's conjecture. He wrote to this old friend many times, sent checks, hoping that he would return to China to teach, and asked students who went to the western United States to bring him tea leaves from his hometown and greet him, but he said that he would see him at his house at eleven o'clock, and he left at ten o'clock, and even his mentor Qiu Chengtong could not contact him.

According to people who also met Shi Wanxiong in the later period, the furnishings in his home were extremely simple, there were no sheets on the bed, only sponge pads, and there was only one telephone in the office except for a writing desk. And he asked a teacher with concern: "Are you married?" The first reaction was, "What do you mean by 'starting a family'?" Later, it was his "half" friend who speculated that maybe he was too concerned about "becoming a mathematician".

His parents divorced when he was a child, he grew up with his mother in FJ, and after he was admitted to the University of Science and Technology of China, his father in AH happily came to see him, but he refused to see him. Whether or not the loneliness of his childhood made him develop a peculiar kind of thinking, no one knows now.

The most humorous thing that happened to this "math geek" was that once the tutor drove him and a group of peers and students into a car accident on the highway in the United States, and all the students who were obviously only slightly injured were groaned and groaned when they were investigated by the police about the consequences of the accident, and Shi Wanxiong replied the most, saying that he was "Notasbeautifulasbefore." It's going to make people laugh!

Shi Wanxiong is indeed a true genius, he was born in 1963, the same year as Junxin in this time and space, but he has become a disciple of Professor Yau Chengtong, studying for a doctorate under him, and at the same time, he is the same as Horowitz, a doctoral student at the Institute for Advanced Study in Princeton. However, the difference is that although Horowitz is also a disciple of Professor Yau, he is in the Institute for Advanced Study in Princeton all the year round, while Shi Wanxiong is doing research at Harvard University with Professor Yau.

Of course, when Professor Yau Chengtong called all his disciples over, Jun Xin found that Professor Yau Chengtong called only his three disciples from China, that is, Shi Wanxiong, Zhou Peineng and Cao Huaidong.

Later, when Professor Yau was slandered by the New Yorker newspaper, Professor Hamilton wrote a letter to Professor Yau's authorized lawyer, in which he mentioned the significant achievements of the three men in the Richie Stream, and gave a very high evaluation: Cao Huaidong proved that the normalized Ricky flow in the regular Kaehler case always exists, and has convergence to zero or negative Chen classes. Cao's results were the basis for Perelman's exciting work in the Kaehler study of the Ricky flow, in which Perelman proved that the Ridge flow is bounded to the radius of the positive Chan class and the curvature of the scale.

In addition to his outstanding work on other geometric flows, Zhou Peineng also extended my (Hamilton's) work on Ricky flow on two-dimensional spheres to the case of curvature variable signs.

Shi Wanxiong pioneered the study of Ricky flow on complete non-compact manifolds, and on the basis of many beautiful arguments, he proved the local microquotient estimation of Ricky flow. The amplification of singularities usually produces non-compact solutions, and it is proved that the convergence of the amplification limit always depends on Shi Wanxiong's micro-quotient estimation, so Shi Wanxiong's work is the key to all the limit argumentation methods used by Perelman and I (Hamilton).

"Three, uh, should you be called senior, or senior brother?" Jun Xin shrugged his shoulders and said with a cynical smile, and Professor Yau Chengtong on the side laughed nonstop.

"Jun, you're really..."

"You're older than me!" Shi Wanxiong also learned from Junxin and shrugged his shoulders and said.

"Yes, but your degree is higher than mine, so I can't do anything about it!" Jun Xindao.

"Then you can do whatever you want!" Shi Wanxiong pondered seriously for a while, and said very seriously.

Compared with this sometimes out-of-tune classmate, there is no doubt that the other two disciples who are Professor Qiu are much more normal, and they say hello to Junxin in a proper manner, so that they can be regarded as acquaintances.

The two of them naturally knew Junxin's current status in the world, so they were naturally a little restrained when talking to Junxin. But Junxin didn't have anything, but I felt that I was a little excited to suddenly meet so many Chinese people abroad at this time.

This era is not the era when there are a lot of overseas students in later generations, it is not the kind of era where you can meet two or three international students casually, and it is not uncommon to see a lot of them, and it is really not easy to meet an international student abroad. Junxin stayed in Princeton for almost four months, during which in addition to the exchange students they went to the past together, he only met an international student named Wu Zhenjiang from SH Fudan University, but although he met, because he was a doctor of biology, he usually only met occasionally to say hello or something, basically the kind that did not contact.
