95, twin prime

"Where's the yin? Who stipulates that if there is a new achievement, it must be announced to the world as soon as possible, besides, at the beginning, the whole world was questioning me, didn't they question it! Then I'll procrastinate. ”

Han Sen walked into the study, and just happened to hear Yao Ruzhi say that he was "yin", of course Han Sen had to defend himself a few words.

"Academician Han." The people in the room immediately got up and greeted Han Sen.

Han Sen nodded, replied hello, and then instructed Zhuang Wen: "Zhuang Wen, go back and copy a copy of Fermat's paper to Xiao Yao." ”

"How's the discussion going?" Then, Han Sen picked up the scratch paper on the table and looked at it.

Suddenly, he caught a glimpse of a piece of scratch paper, and the line of numbers listed on this scratch paper caught Han Sen's attention.

"Huh."

Han Sen sighed lightly, picked up the pen, circled a few maths on the scratch paper, and then recombined and arranged them, and the two sets of data after the arrangement happened to be twin primes.

Han Sen sat in the chair, picked up the pen, and while thinking, the tip of the pen naturally clicked on the manuscript paper, and in the study, Yao Ruzhi, Zhuang Wen, and Qin Lan were quiet and didn't dare to make any sound.

Han Sen wrote a few lines of arithmetic in the blank space of the scratch paper, but after thinking about it carefully, he quickly crossed it out.

Inspiration flashed before his eyes, but then disappeared again, and Han Sen's brain began to work, searching for the inspiration that had just flashed by.

In the quiet study, Qin Lan couldn't help it, and asked in a low voice, "What's wrong?" ”

Yao Ruzhi thought about the scratch paper he had just glimpsed and said, "The few pairs of numbers circled by the teacher seem to be twin primes?" ”

Zhuang Wen also whispered: "Aren't we discussing pseudoprimes, how did we run to twin primes." ”

Yao Ruzhi looked at Han Sen, who was deep in thought, and replied to Zhuang Wen with admiration: "Genius, this is genius, he should have captured the idea of a flash of inspiration." ”

......

Yao Ruzhi guessed correctly, vaguely, Han Sen felt that he had captured something, but it was empty.

A twin prime is a pair of prime numbers that differ by 2, such as 3 and 5, 5 and 7, 11 and 13, etc.

The twin prime conjecture was formally proposed by Hilbert in the report of the International Congress of Mathematicians in 1900, question 8, which can be described as follows:

There are infinitely many prime numbers p, such that p + 2 is prime.

A pair of prime numbers (p, p + 2) is called a twin prime.

In 1849, Alfon de Polliniac proposed a general conjecture that there are infinitely many pairs of prime numbers (p, p + 2k) for all natural numbers k. The case of k = 1 is the twin prime conjecture.

Hansen was not interested in twin primes, but in the Goldbach conjecture, which was closely related to twin primes.

How many scientists have longed for a "flash" of inspiration favored by God all their lives, but this "flash" sometimes costs human life, and how many scientists have spent their lives to prove that their "fleeting" is just a void.

Pinching his eyebrows, Han Sen felt a little headache, no, he had no idea at all.

.....

"Arsen."

After a long time, Qin Jing's soft call interrupted Han Sen's contemplation.

Han Sen, who had recovered from his contemplation, saw his beautiful little Qin Jing, Han Sen was just about to say a few words, when he saw so many people staring at him.

The thought was dragged back, Han Sen stood up from the chair, briefly moved, looked at the clock in the study, it was already twelve o'clock at night, Han Sen spoke: "It's so late, there is a room at home, let's rest at home tonight, Qin Lan, you take them to find a room in a while." ”

Then, Han Sen thought for a while, began to assign tasks, and first spoke to Qin Lan: "Qin Lan, you have sorted out your own papers and sent them yourself, your papers are still very naΓ―ve, you can ask Xiao Yao." ”

Han Sen sat down again, found a few blank pieces of scratch paper, and simply wrote a few pages of arithmetic, although his contemplation just now did not capture Goldbach's conjecture, but for the study of twin primes got a general direction, with students, many things do not need Han Sen to do by himself.

Han Sen handed the finished few pages of the draft to Yao Ruzhi and said, "This is the general research direction of twin primes, Xiao Yao, you take it back and take the two juniors to study it, and ask Zhang Bin if you don't understand the project application or anything else." I've given me the general direction of my research, and I'll leave the rest to you. ”

"Sleep, sleep, sleep!"

After speaking, Han Sen walked out of the study and led Qin Jing back to the bedroom.

.......

Next, the days began to pass day by day, and Han Sen began to work from home.

"Any integer greater than 2 can be written as the sum of three prime numbers;

Any integer greater than 5 can be written as the sum of three prime numbers;

Any odd number greater than 7 can be written as the sum of three prime numbers. ”

Han Sen only had these few words in his head recently.

Qin Lan's paper was published, and the publication of Qin Lan's paper was the "Journal of Tsinghua University" of Tsinghua University, but because of the discussion on "academic arrogance" some time ago, Qin Lan's paper published the "Journal of Tsinghua University (English Edition)", he himself is the first author, and Yao Ruzhi and Han Sen are the joint second authors.

The publication of this paper has caused a lot of sensation in the world mathematics community, especially the second author of this paper is Han Sen, everyone knows that Qin Lan, as a student, deliberately added Han Sen's name and marked it with "origin".

It's "prime number" again, and this is Han Sen's student's article, that is to say, the general direction of Han Sen's research is still number theory, so did he prove Fermat's theorem!

The key is that Qin Lan's paper has a relevant part of Fermat's theorem!

The arrogant international mathematicians looked down on the Chinese mathematicians, but now, each of them is thinking of contacting the Chinese mathematicians, because there are rumors that the Chinese mathematicians have long been proved by Fermat's theorem.

However, when the arrogant international mathematicians lowered their bodies in front of the Chinese mathematicians and asked them if they had read the papers proving Fermat's theorem, the Chinese mathematicians answered very respectfully and said: "Hehehe, why don't you come to our school to teach for a few semesters?" ”

Han Sen is the chairman of the Chinese Mathematical Society, he has no real power, but he is still influential, and the guiding ideology of "making a fortune in a muffled voice" was released, and the shrewd Chinese people immediately understood, and now they have the initiative, and this group of arrogant international mathematicians took the initiative to come together, of course, they will not be able to get what they want easily.

The ambiguous shrewdness of Chinese mathematicians makes nerd-like international mathematicians look confused, what does it mean? In the end, the certificate did not prove to give an accurate reply.

This makes the whole world mathematics community itch in their hearts! Come in!!

As for the previous doubts about Hansen's proof of Fermat's theorem, it has begun to decrease, but the entire mathematical community has itched.

As the person concerned, Han Sen has been "retreated", and he is no longer visible on the campus of Tsinghua University.

In the office of the "Han Sen Academic Committee" of the PBC School of Finance, Kuang Tong sits here, all kinds of people who go in and out every day, Kuang Tong has done management, he recently sorted out the relevant funds and enterprises under Han Sen's name, and found a mess, Kuang Tong is establishing an asset operation company for Han Sen.

In the office of "Academician Han Sen" in the Department of Mathematics, three young teenagers, Yao Ruzhi, Zhuang Wen and Qin Lan, were bored in this office all day long, and several pieces of Han Sen's scratch paper with the general research direction of twin primes had been turned over by them.
