Chapter 166: I've never seen such a shameless one

Huaguo, the campus of the University of P.

"Zhou Gorilla, I remember that your mentor is Mo Kun, right?"

In a dormitory, a young man poked his head out from under the bed and asked another roommate who was watching anime next to him.

Zhou Orangutan, who was brushing the anime, didn't raise his head and responded: "Well, what's wrong?" ”

"Did Professor Mo prove a conjecture some time ago?" The probe youth then asked.

Hearing this, Zhou Gorilla turned his head and glanced at his roommate, and replied with a smile: "Yes, I heard that this conjecture has been proven, and the tutor has received a reward of 100,000 yuan from the school, and he will have the opportunity to be upgraded to a doctoral supervisor next year, maybe I can rub off on the degree." ”

"What, you're envious?"

The roommate shook his head with a strange face and said, "But there are news reports that Professor Mo's certificate is suspected of plagiarism. ”

"Plagiarism? This is the non-null hypothesis of the Rankin-Selberg L-function, one of the core problems of the L-function in the Langlands program. Zhou Gorilla retorted directly.

"But it's Professor Artur Ávila, a Fields Medal winner, who made this news, and there's no way he's going to frame people, right?"

The roommate continued, but Zhou Gorilla was stunned for a moment, stretched out his hand and clicked the pause button of the anime, got up and walked over: "Where did the news come from?" ”

"Now, this, look."

The roommate handed over the mobile phone, and Zhou Yao hurriedly caught it and looked at it with bated breath.

After reading the news, Zhou Gorilla quickly forwarded the link to his prestige, and then returned the phone to his roommate.

"I'll go out."

After saying that, he took his phone and ran away.

.......

On campus, Zhou Gorilla hurriedly ran into an office with his mobile phone.

"Old, teacher, something happened."

Panting, he leaned against the door frame and shouted to a middle-aged professor inside.

Hearing the voice, the middle-aged professor with a horse's face frowned, and taught with some displeasure: "Every time there is a big event, you must meditate first, and you are like talking in a panic like this." ”

"Teacher, you better take a look at this first."

Zhou Gorilla ignored the tutor's lesson, and took his mobile phone and sent a link to the prestige of the mentor in front of him.

"The link has sent you prestige, teacher, and it has something to do with your previous paper on the proof of non-null hypotheses of the Rankin-Selberg L-function."

Hearing that it had something to do with the proof of the non-null hypothesis of the L-function, Mo Kun frowned slightly, touched his mobile phone from the table, and turned on his prestige.

[Fields Medalist Professor Artur Avila has publicly questioned Professor Mo Kun's Rankin-Selberg L-function non-null hypothesis proof for alleged plagiarism.] 】

"Recently, we interviewed the famous Brazilian mathematician, Professor Artur Ávila, who won the Fields Medal in 2014."

"In this interview, Professor Avila raised serious questions and accusations against Professor Mo Kun, a professor of mathematics at Peking University."

Previously, Professor Mo Kun completed the proof of the non-null hypothesis of the Rankin-Selberg L-function, which is an important core problem in the famous Langlands program of mathematics. According to Professor Avila, the Langlands program leads to the final proposition in mathematics - the grand unified theory. This is what generations of mathematicians have pursued. ”

However, in this interview, Professor Avila said that the core theory and some of the computational data of the proof paper published by Professor Mo Kun are from others, and are not Professor Mo's original theoretical ......"

β€œ.......”

"Pocket News will stay tuned to this matter and continue to report for you."

.......

After reading the news, Mo Kun's brows furrowed, and his breathing became two points heavier.

On the side, Zhou Goryu suddenly became annoyed.

He's in a hurry to come over and do something.

This report is not good news, why do you want to be this budding bird?

Not to mention whether there is plagiarism or not, the accusation of a Fields Medal winner alone is enough to make people fall into a whirlpool.

I just thought about telling my teacher about it quickly, but I didn't think about the consequences.

Gan!

I hope it won't affect my graduation.

Thinking about it, Zhou Yu shrank back again, trying his best to lower his sense of existence, so as not to be angry.

But surprisingly, Mo Kun didn't get angry, but just explained to him in a hurry: "Zhou Yao, help me contact the reporter of this news, I want to respond to this matter." ”

Zhou Gorilla was stunned for a moment before he reacted, and hurriedly said, "I'll go now." ”

After saying that, he ran away in a puff of smoke, but a doubt rose in his heart.

"Is there something hidden in this? Or is plagiarism or something just rumor-mongering? After all, choosing to take the initiative to respond to this must be a bit certain? ”

No matter what Zhou Gorilla thought, Mo Kun snorted as he looked at the report on his phone.

"This foreign devil is really wide."

Shaking his head, Mo Kun put down his phone.

He had expected this matter for a long time, but he didn't expect the whirlpool of public opinion to come so quickly, and the paper came within a few days of its publication.

But fortunately, he was prepared.

.......

The media reporters of "Pocket Hot News" came quickly, and after receiving the contact from Zhou Gorilla, they arranged for a beautiful reporter and a photographer to come to interview them as soon as possible.

"Hello Professor Mo, I'm Lin Qing, a reporter from 'Palm Hot News'."

The beautiful reporter took the microphone and walked around Mo Kun with a bright smile.

When they were previously accused by Brazil's Fields Medal winner, Professor Artur Ávila, they were keenly aware that this could be a breaking news.

Fields Medal winner, mathematics professor at Peking University, plagiarism in academia, and Xu Chuan, the top student in the college entrance examination, each has its own huge popularity.

These are put together, if they work well, there is no problem in being on the hot search or even the first hot search.

Yesterday, they were still thinking about how to contact and interview the parties this time, Professor Mo Kun and Xu Chuan, but they didn't expect someone to send a pillow when they dozed off today, and Professor Mo Kun of Peking University actually took the initiative to contact them.

"Hello, Reporter Lin." Mo Kun said hello.

"That, Professor Mo, are you convenient now? If it's convenient, let's start the interview now? After saying hello, Lin Qing went directly to the point and asked.

Mo Kun nodded, indicating that he could.

"I heard that you proved the non-null hypothesis of the L-function in the Langlands program at the beginning of September? Can you tell us more about that? ”

Mo Kun nodded, and said with a straight face: "Of course you can." ”

"The Rankin-Selberg non-null hypothesis of the L-function is one of the core of the L-function problem in the Langlands Program."

"If the Langlands Program is regarded as an edifice, the non-null hypothesis of the l-function is the cornerstone of the edifice........"

Mo Kun talked loudly, and Lin Qing took a voice recorder to record the content completely.

"Professor Mok, what do you think about the recent questioning of your 'plagiarism' by the Brazilian mathematician Professor Artur Ávila? Is it true, as Professor Avila said, that you are using other people's theories and calculations? ”

Mo Kun: "First of all, I would like to solemnly state that I did not plagiarize, and Professor Avila's accusations against me are unreasonable. ”

"The reason for this was at the Morningstar Prize in Mathematics in May this year, when I had an exchange with Professor Avila at the gala, and this time I was inspired to prove the non-null hypothesis of the l-function."

"So you did use someone else's theory?" Lin Qing couldn't wait to interject and ask.

Mo Kun frowned, and replied with some annoyance: "Yes, yes, but I also mentioned Professor Artur Avila and the others at the end of the paper, and thanked them. ”

"I don't think there's anything wrong with using my own ideas to communicate with other people, after all, I'm the main person in this exchange."

"So Professor Avila's accusations against me are unjustified, there is no such rule in the academic world, and a scholar cannot use his own communication ideas to prove a mathematical conjecture."

Hearing this, Lin Qing, a beautiful reporter with hot news in her hand, her eyes lit up, and she quickly asked, "That is, so you didn't plagiarize?" The inspiration for proving the non-null hypothesis of the l-function came from your previous conversation with Professor Avila? ”

Mo Kun nodded and said, "Yes, I don't know how the plagiarism was arranged on my head, but this is obviously unreasonable." ”

.......

Xu Chuan has completed a report on the "most ideal search for decay channels for the coupling of Higgs with the Yukawa of the third generation of heavy quarks".

As expected, this new achievement in calculating physical theory from a mathematical method surprised everyone as soon as it appeared.

The physicists who participated in the presentation were full of discussions.

"It's really surprising that the coupling energy level of the Higgs and the Yukawa of the third generation of heavy quarks is actually closer to the energy level of the Higgs particle."

"I was even more surprised by the method he used, although I didn't know much about mathematics, but it really opened my eyes to the fact that mathematics can still be used in this way."

"It's math physics, right? The thinking of young people is really amazing, and the jumping is too powerful. ”

"Maybe this is just a wrong method, according to the previous theory, the Yukawa coupling energy level of Higgs and the third generation of heavy quarks should appear above 150 GEV, not as low as 128 GEV, which is the experience of countless previous Higgs particle decay experiments."

"The calculations are not all right, and the experience can be problematic, after all, we know too little about the micro level, don't we?"

"I heard that the experiment has been temporarily arranged, and just a week later, I don't know which unlucky ghost was squeezed."

In the venue, many physicists were constantly communicating.

This is not a completely new path, it has been thought of for a long time, but unfortunately, it is a difficult path that requires the calculator to have both high mathematical and physical skills.

So there's never been much that anyone can do in this regard.

How can we not be surprised that a result in this regard has suddenly popped up today.

There are many people who agree with this kind of use of mathematical methods to calculate physical theories, because on the surface, there is nothing wrong with the report and the paper.

And this is certified by the council, and a collision experiment is specially arranged for it to temporarily cut into the queue.

Change source app, view the latest chapters of the book on multiple sites at the same time. 】

Therefore, from all aspects, it is very likely that the coupling energy level of the Yukawa of Higgs and the third-generation heavy quark is in the range of 128gev~131gev.

For this reason, it is also worthwhile to arrange a temporary collision experiment to verify it.

Of course, there are those who agree, and there are naturally those who oppose it.

There are many opponents, and the most important theory is that from the experience of previous particle collision experiments, the coupling energy level of Higgs and the Yukawa of the third-generation heavy quark should be in the range of 150 GEV or even higher, rather than close to the energy level region where the Higgs particle appears.

The figure of 128 GEV completely contradicts previous practical experience.

In particular, a certain atomic power research institute in Korea has been particularly vehemently opposed to this.

However, it also has something to do with the fact that their application for this year's collision experiment was squeezed into next year.

That's right, a certain atomic force research institute is the unlucky guy who Xu Chuan temporarily cut in line and squeezed out, and their collision application was directly squeezed until next year.

Therefore, in the report meeting, I asked all kinds of questions, trying to find Xu Chuan's trouble, trying to prove that there were huge flaws in this calculation paper, and it was not worth using collision experiments to verify it.

But it is a pity that there are very few people in the entire atomic force research institute who understand mathematics, and even if they can understand the calculation process, they cannot find any flaws and problems.

The few places that he barely found that he thought were problematic were also easily resolved by Xu Chuan.

......

At the end of the report meeting, Xu Chuan came down from the podium.

On the whole, the presentation was quite successful, and although the final question session was asked a bunch of superficial and even erroneous questions by someone who didn't know whether it was Korea or a small island country, this set of calculation papers was still accepted by many physicists.

And the degree of support is also more than half, which is enough to continue the subsequent collision verification experiments.

In the event that a large number of physicists join forces to complain about a collision experiment, even if it is a collision experiment that has been decided a long time ago, they will consider whether to continue it.

After all, it is inseparable from the support of these physicists from all over the world, and without many physicists, LHC cannot operate.

Leaving the venue, Xu Chuan returned to the hotel.

The report will be completed, the collision experiment has been scheduled, and all that remains is to wait a week.

When I turned on my mobile phone, someone sent a message from Weixin, including news about Professor Mo Kun's targeted response from Peking University.

β€œ...... There is no plagiarism, and Professor Avila's accusations against me are unfounded......."

β€œ....... Inspiration does come from communication, but I'm the main person who communicates......."

β€œ...... There is no such rule in academia that a scholar cannot use his or her own communication ideas to prove a mathematical conjecture......."

β€œ........ I don't know how the plagiarism was arranged on my head......."

The news of the hot news in the palm of your hand landed their interview with Mo Kun in detail, and Xu Chuan laughed angrily when he saw the detailed report.

TMD, what a shame-Ξ²!

I've never seen such a shameless person.
