Chapter 111: At the age of eighteen
On the stage, Xu Chuan pinched the fragmentary chalk head, took two steps back, and took one last look at the calculations and proof processes on the blackboard.
Off the stage, Professor Deligne's squinting eyes relaxed, his slightly frowning brow and somewhat tense expression soothed, and a smile appeared on him.
Professor Feuerman, who was sitting next to him, sighed and said, "It is surprising that the fractal dimension and fractal measure of the ฮฉ are limited by the Dirichlet field, and then the fractal dimension and fractal measure are expanded and transformed to establish a connection, thus proving that the ฮฉ fractal dimension and fractal measure based on the Weyl-Berry conjecture are spectral invariants." โ
"It's ingenious, this way of thinking."
Hearing this, Professor Deligne smiled and said, "Yes, the most rare thing is that he is only eighteen years old this year, and he has already solved a world-class mathematical conjecture at the T2 level. โ
After a pause, Deligne suddenly looked at Fairman and said, "What were you doing when you were eighteen years old?" โ
Fellman thought for a moment and said, "I just graduated from college and entered doctoral studies, and compared to him, the gap is too big. โ
Deligne smiled and said, "I'm pretty much the same. โ
.......
On the stage, Xu Chuan stared at the blackboard covered with calculations and verification processes for a while, and finally breathed a sigh of relief.
After all, he completed the proof of the Weyl-Berry conjecture, and if nothing else, it will be promoted to a theorem from today.
And there is a new method in mathematics, physics, and even academia.
In the future, astronomers can use this new method to accurately calculate the size of stars in the distant universe, and can also be used to calculate the exact radius of black holes, and even the radius of huge river systems.
There is no doubt that this is a major discovery and revolution in the world of astrophysics.
Turning around slightly, Xu Chuan looked at the audience under the stage and said softly, "Sorry for delaying everyone's time." โ
"On the basis of the proof of the weakened form of the Weyl-Berry conjecture, the ฮฉ fractal dimension and the fractal measure spectrum are limited by the Dirichlet field, and then the expansion and transformation are carried out to establish the connection, so as to prove that the ฮฉ fractal dimension and fractal measure based on the Weyl-Berry conjecture are spectral invariants."
"Further, we can determine that in any dimension and in any situation, there is a fractal framework such that the boundary? ฮฉ is measurable within this fractal framework. โ
"At the same time, it also makes the Weyl-Berry conjecture valid within the fractal framework."
"Today, the Weyl-Berry conjecture has successfully stepped down from the temple of mathematical conjecture, and although it has not yet been reviewed, I believe that it will succeed!"
......
As Xu Chuan's words fell, there was silence in the second auditorium.
There are surprises, doubts, disbelief, and heartfelt celebrations with a smiling smile.
The math professors, who knew from the beginning what Xu Chuan was doing on stage, had surprises and disbelief on their faces.
And those viewers who came later were a little lost and confused.
As for the elders in the front row, they had smiling smiles on their faces.
All kinds of emotions mingled in the auditorium, the atmosphere was dull and silent, no one spoke, and no one left.
Because no one dared to be sure that Weyl-Berry's conjecture had really been proven by the teenager in front of him.
In the end, it was Professor Feverman who broke the silence and stood up again.
The math professor, who now has a beard and looks a bit like Peng Yuyan when he was young, first cast a praising look at the teenager on the stage, and then applauded.
Bang Bang Bang ยท
Crisp and loud applause passed through the silent auditorium, and then, a tidal wave of applause flooded the entire auditorium.
Both the math professor and the students who followed along, all stood up.
Applause, cheers, whistles poured in.
Today, they have witnessed a miracle in the history of mathematics, a world-class conjecture being proven, and a great mathematician in the future.
......
Bowing to the audience, Xu Chuan just wanted to put down the chalk head that was still in his hand, but after thinking about it, he put it in his pocket again, and then turned around and walked towards the backstage.
In the auditorium, people's eyes and applause followed the figure of the boy until he disappeared.
With the departure of Xu Chuan, the mathematicians in the auditorium gradually dispersed, only Academician Zhang Weiping in the front row sat there without moving, quietly looking at the stage, the picture was reflected in the children's holes, there were several blackboards, and there seemed to be a young man's figure.
Eighteen years old, just an adult teenager, if he enrolls a little late, he may not have taken the college entrance examination yet, and he will just enter the university earlier.
And it is such a teenager who has solved a world problem that has been difficult in the mathematical community for more than 30 years.
There is shock and emotion.
At the same time, Zhang Weiping also made up his mind that when he returned to China this time, he would go to Baicheng in person.
At the age of eighteen, he can solve world-class conjectures, and the difficulty can be ranked to the T2 level, such a talent, if he is not specially trained and cannot stay, it will be a great loss for the country.
Not to mention, based on this Weyl-Berry conjecture alone, he will definitely be nominated for the Fields Medal in two years' time.
It's hard to say if you can get it, but it's definitely okay to get a nomination.
Moreover, awards such as the Cole Algebra Award in the field of national algebra can definitely have his share.
In addition, domestic mathematics awards, such as the Chern Mathematics Award and the Zhong Jiaqing Mathematics Award, have also been awarded, on the one hand, he can fully win these awards.
On the other hand, it's because of the Fields Medal.
If he can win the Fields Medal in two years, but he doesn't win any famous awards in China, wouldn't it be a slap in the face?
There is no shortage of Chinese people in the Fields Medal, but no Chinese mathematician has ever won this award.
From that young man, Academician Zhang Weiping saw hope.
Even if it is difficult to say about the Fields Medal in two years, he is only 18 years old, and there are still 22 years to go before the 40-year-old age set by the Fields Medal.
In recent years, Huaguo has shined in international mathematics competitions such as IMO and AMO, and has won many gold medals, but after that, in the face of worldwide mathematical achievements, there are not many achievements that can be achieved.
Perhaps there is no shortage of Fields medals, but China is in dire need of such a medal to boost morale.
At the same time, the old professor also secretly made up his mind.
In any case, he wants to turn Xu Chuan from physics to mathematics.
.......
Leaving backstage, Xu Chuan successfully avoided the mathematicians who followed his footsteps and hid back in his hotel room.
Stepping back into bed, he stared at the ceiling and cracked the corners of his mouth, revealing a smile.
Even if he has won countless honors in his previous life, and even won the Fields Medal, it is still a happy thing to make a breakthrough in a new field.
Especially today, it is a heart-beating thing to boldly complete the proof of the Weyl-Berry conjecture on the stage of the report meeting.
No one has ever done such a thing before.
Silently staring at the ceiling for a while, Xu Chuan turned a carp upright, and was just about to tidy up the harvest again, when a knock on the door outside the room rang out.
Walked over and opened the door, and there was a bunch of people standing outside the door.
There are his senior brother Lin Feng, Sun and Moon Zhang Weiping, Miao Pingbo and others, as well as domestic mathematics professors he doesn't know.
"Why are you all here?" Xu Chuan looked at the group of people in front of him with some surprise.
"Aren't you welcome?" Zhang Weiping asked with a smile, Xu Chuan reacted, got out of the way, and invited a group of people into the room.
Nearly ten people poured into the small room, and it instantly became crowded, so that the sofa chairs could not sit and finally had to sit on the bed.
"Congratulations, Xu Chuan, this time there was an earth-shattering big news."
In the room, Zhang Weiping said with a smile, attracting a chorus from others.
"Freshman year can prove world-class conjecture puzzles, demon."
"When I was a freshman, I learned algebra to death."
"Can you compare to Kawajin? How can mortals be compared to gods? โ
In the room, some of the more active graduate students and doctoral students made jokes.
Xu Chuan coughed embarrassedly and said, "It's just a conjecture, it's nothing, and the proof of Weyl-Berry's conjecture hasn't been rigorously sentified, so no one can say whether it has really been confirmed." โ
On the side, his senior brother Lin Feng suddenly cast a resentful gaze: "That's it, it's nothing..... So what is it that I have been busy for six or seven years and have not certified anything? โ
With him taking the lead, other students also denounced.
"That's too much Versailles!"
"That's it, if Versailles is too much, you will be thundered, and Professor Deligne and Professor Fairman have read your proof, and there is no problem, which means that the Weyl-Berry conjecture has become the Weyl-Berry theorem."
"What is the Weyl-Berry theorem, it should be the Xu-Weyl-Berry theorem."
The room was very lively, Zhang Weiping said with a smile: "You kid should be graduating from college when you go back this time, right?" Have you thought about where to go to graduate school? โ
Xu Chuan thought for a while and said, "If you graduate, it may be too early, and I'm afraid that I won't be able to finish my physics for the time being." โ
"Of course, math is fine, but I want to wait until I graduate with physics before thinking about doctoral students."
Mathematics has solved two world-class conjectures in one year, of course, it can also be said to be one, after all, the first is a derivative weakening proof of the second.
That's enough for him to graduate from college and get a PhD.
No one would even go directly to any university at home or abroad, including Princeton, to apply for a professorship.
Compared with mathematics, he can be said to have made no achievements in physics at present.
The only result was a paper written in high school, and it was still mathematical.
Hearing this, Zhang Weiping immediately persuaded: "What kind of physics do you kid study, your talent in mathematics is so strong, you should go on the road of mathematics, physics or something, just put it down for the time being, and concentrate on studying mathematics in the future." โ
"If you still want to learn physics in the future, it's not too late to pick it up when the time comes, as for now, mathematics is enough for you to toss........"
