Chapter 240: The Turmoil Caused by Wu Zhe in the Foreign Mathematical Community

In the case that Wu Zhe and Tang Meng didn't know yet. The name Wu Zhe has begun to be frequently mentioned in foreign mathematics circles.

This is partly due to Qiu Lao's reasons, and partly due to Wu Zhefa's photocopy.

The most numerous papers on the AR XIV forum are a group of mathematics enthusiasts, the so-called civil sciences. The conjectures above have basically been proven by the civil sciences. It is estimated that there are no less than 20 papers that prove the "Goldbach conjecture" alone. But if you study and read carefully, then you will lose. The logic of mathematicians and the logic of civil science lovers are fundamentally two different things, and many people laugh when they see such a paper.

But even so, many people who study and study mathematics will have an account on the AR XIV forum, because there are still a lot of dry goods on it, and even if it is useless, it can sometimes bring inspiration to themselves.

Wu Zhe proved that the "Sitapan conjecture" was not as unknown as he thought it was in the outside world, but because of his age, it has been noticed by many universities. Many people see him as a star of tomorrow.

Now many people call Tao Zhexuan of Xingguo, Schultz of D country, and Wu Zhe of Huaguo as the genius three musketeers in the mathematical world.

Among them, Wu Zhe is the youngest.

Therefore, after Wu Zhe's paper was hung on AR XIV, many people still noticed it. It's just that many people don't have the knowledge, and they can't see why.

But Tao Zhexuan, Schultz and others, who are also geniuses, also noticed it. After two days of research, it is almost certain that Wu Zhe has proved those three conjectures. All those who read and understood Wu Zhe's proof were numb by Wu Zhe's three-in-a-row conjecture and proof show.

Tao Zhexuan was the first to tweet: "Some people say that I am the most intelligent person in the world, and I used to feel complacent about it and proud of my mathematical talent. I am proud to be a full professor at the age of 24. But just now, my pride was shattered by an even more talented man. I want to know who he is, right? He is the genius of Huaguo, Wu Zhe, but the key is that he is only 15 years old. Want to know what he did? You can look up his new paper on AR XIV. MY GOD, in addition to that Sitapan conjecture, he sent three world-class conjecture proofs in one day. Many people may think that he may have sent a random paper, but after my checking, at least I didn't find any mistakes or omissions------"

This is a long blog post, and Tao Zhexuan, as the youngest professor at the University of Los Angeles, has a lot of fans, and many students take him as an example, so after seeing this article, they all went to the forum to find Wu Zhe's original paper. This thing began to ferment.

And as more and more people began to study those papers, they were all fascinated by Wu Zhe's talent, but now there is no mathematician or a Fields Medal boss to make the final affirmation for Wu Zhe.

The "Annals of Mathematics" of Princeton University also published the news that it was organizing people to verify the accuracy of Wu Zhe's papers, and also took the opportunity to reveal to the outside world that Wu Zhe's papers were submitted to the "Annals of Mathematics".

And the Annals of Mathematics are not lying, they have been verifying it for a long time. Professor Yau Chengtong personally called the editor-in-chief of the journal, Dimmons, and strongly recommended Wu Zhe's three papers to him.

It is common to know that it usually takes a month or even half a year to review papers, one is that there are many papers, and the other is that the professor of thesis review may not be available at any time.

For example, Hua Guo's essay is conventionally ranked last, and a 15-year-old child, even if he has a little grade in the front. But when Yau Chengtong said that Wu Zhe had continuously proved the three conjectures of Zhou, Polignac, and twin primes, he only thought that this old friend had drunk too much and bragged to him.

It was only under Yau Chengtong's repeated assurances that he believed it half-convinced. This is also due to Yau's status as a Fields Medal winner, and he believes that Yau will not joke with his academic reputation.

So he personally went to the door and invited a number theorist: Professor Feverman of Princeton University, a Fields Medal winner.

However, as soon as I arrived at Professor Feverman's door, I saw Feverman and another old man walking out.

After Dimmons was stunned for a moment, he hurriedly greeted the two respectfully: "Hello, Professor Feverman and Professor Deligne!" Are you going out? ”

Without being disrespectful to Dimmons, Professor Feverman was a Fields Medal winner. And the other professor Deligne is even more impressive. He is a Fields Medal, Crawford Medal, Wolf Medalist. This year, he also received the title of Viscount.

Feverman looked up at Dimmons and smiled, "Dimmons, Delgne and I are about to go looking for you?" Qiu called me and asked Deligne and me to go to your place to read a few papers. ”

Dimmons couldn't help but sigh that Yau Chengtong's face was big enough, so it wasn't enough to call him, and he also found a heavyweight reader for Wu Zhe.

He immediately replied: "I came this time for Wu Zhe's paper, and I hope you can be his reviewer." ”

Deligne was a little impatient in the audience, and urged: "Why do you talk so much nonsense? Let's go and take a look now. Hehe, world-class conjectures, or three. If Qiu wasn't joking this time, then the mathematical world would be lively. ”

Several people came to the office of the Annals of Mathematics, and Wu Zhe's paper had already been printed.

Professor Feverman and Professor Deligne each found a desk and sat down, picked up the pen they had with them, and began to verify it.

At first, the expressions of the two were relaxed, and there was even a little playful smile on their faces, but as time passed. The expressions of the two became more and more serious, until the surprise on their faces became stronger and stronger.

Raising their heads almost at the same time, both saw the answer in each other's faces.

Deligne said directly: "I will take this paper back to study, and I will give you the answer in three days." What about you, Peverman? ”

Again, although I didn't find any errors and logical loopholes the first time, it was too important. I don't dare to jump to conclusions, I have to be cautious. This Wu Zhe is a super genius, and his mathematical thinking is too wild. ”

Seeing Feverman sighing, Deligne also nodded: "It's the key point to be cautious, this is related to the ownership of the Fields Medal." ”

Feverman glanced at Deligne and said with a smile: "We may still be just a Fields Medal medal, but you mean more to your old friend than this medal." The distribution of Mersenne primes and the proof of twin primes are important to the Riemann conjecture. And your mentor Ron Dick's health hasn't been very good lately, has he? ”

Deligne didn't speak. Although his teacher Ron Dick is known as the emperor of modern algebra, his research on the Riemann function has never made a breakthrough, and he still haunts it. Now the teacher is seriously ill and bedridden, but on the dark road of the Riemann Zeta function, a little flame suddenly appeared. Even if this flame is small, it is not a consolation for those who have studied the Riemann function all their lives.
