Chapter 168: Evidence Thrown in Your Face
Rushing back from Switzerland, Chen Zhengping accompanied Xu Chuan back to NTU.
"Welcome home, Xu Chuan."
Rong Zhizhuan smiled and greeted Xu Chuan at the school gate.
"Dean Rong, Dean Yu."
Xu Chuan respectfully greeted the two elders.
"I heard you're solving the mystery of the proton radius this time, congratulations."
On the side, Yu Yongwang praised with a smile.
"A small achievement, I still have a lot to learn." Xu Chuan said modestly.
Hearing this, Rong Zhizhuan and Yu Yongwang both shook their heads with a smile and sighed: "You, you are still so modest, if solving the mystery of the proton radius is a trivial achievement, then what else can be considered a famous achievement?" β
"If all the students can think like you, there will be no problem that can stop us."
"Okay, let's go in first, it's not good to always stand at the door."
......
The group came to a conference room, and not only the presidents of the two academies of the two institutes of mathematics and materials attended the meeting, but also the leaders of the propaganda department.
Xu Chuan, as the most outstanding student of NTU in the past ten years, is still very concerned by the school.
At the beginning of the meeting, after Xu Chuan briefly introduced the situation, several people in the conference room immediately exploded.
"Shameless! This kind of thing is also done by plagiarism. β
"Peking University is really going back the more you teach, a graduate tutor blatantly plagiarizes and plagiarizes, and has no teacher ethics!"
"Xu Chuan, don't worry, no matter what, the school will not let our students be wronged."
"This time, Professor Mo of Peking University plagiarized and plagiarized your mathematical theories and calculations, and the school immediately contacted media reporters to speak for you."
"In addition, the school will prepare a lawyer's letter, including a lawsuit against Mo Kun of Peking University and "Progress in Mathematics", this kind of plagiarism, the other party must be asked to retract the manuscript and apologize for compensation."
"Plagiarism is the most serious infringement of copyright and should be dealt with seriously."
In the office, the leaders of NTU slapped the table with indignation.
This matter is not only about plagiarism and plagiarism, but also about the protection of students at NTU.
This not only unites teachers and students inside and outside the school, but also expands the reputation of the school.
"This matter is troublesome for the teachers to lead."
Xu Chuan got up and bowed slightly, although he kept the evidence in his hand, he might not be able to hammer Mo Kun to death smoothly.
With the full support of NTU, there will be more hope and certainty.
Not all professors are called beasts, although there are all kinds of birds when the forest is big, but calling beasts will never become the mainstream.
Plagiarism, plagiarism, and embezzlement of other people's research results will eventually be punished.
.......
Peking University, on campus.
Mo Kun walked around the campus humming a song, flipping through the public opinion news on the Internet as he walked.
[Peking University still has strength, and I hope that there will be a few more such talents, so that the country's basic science can develop.] γ
[Na, look, I said it before, it doesn't have to be plagiarism, Peking University responded publicly. γ
[It's still okay, Professor Mo apologized to Professor Avila, and added his name to the paper, juxtaposed, this sincerity is enough.] γ
[And what about the top god in the college entrance examination? ] Don't see his name? didn't apologize like him, looking at the previous news, Professor Avila said that most of the theory and data were completed by Xu Chuan, and he should apologize to Xu Chuan if he wants to apologize. γ
[Hehe, you really believe it, that old man is undeniably awesome, but the Will-Berry conjecture and the Langlands Program are two completely different fields, and not every genius is called Tao Zhexuan. γ
γ......γ
Brushing these comments, Mo Kun's mood is even happier, through his teacher's suggestion, as well as the operation of Peking University, the opinion on the Internet has reversed a lot recently, and it is much better than he expected before.
In his opinion, if there were no other accidents, this matter would basically be over.
And he will also become a proof of a famous mathematical hypothesis, get a school bonus, be promoted to a doctoral supervisor, and go to the pinnacle of life.
"I didn't expect that people would have such opportunities in their old age."
Mo Kun squinted his eyes, thinking beautifully in his heart.
Suddenly, the mobile phone in his pocket rang, and when he took it out, he saw that it was his mentor Tian Gang calling.
"Where are you? Now come to my office. β
After speaking, Tian Gang hung up the phone.
Mo Kun pinched his phone and frowned slightly, he was a very sensitive person, and the tone of his mentor Tian Gang's speech was a little different from usual, and he immediately thought of the L-function non-null hypothesis proof.
As the saying goes, if you don't want people to know, you can't do it unless you don't do it.
If you do something bad, even if others don't know it, you will always know it, and this is what you are most afraid of.
It can be said that whenever there is a little wind and grass, you will involuntarily associate it with it, suffer from gains and losses, and be frightened.
Taking a deep breath, Mo Kun no longer had the good mood he had before at the moment, and walked towards the teaching building a little dullly.
There was a knock on the office door, and a voice came from inside.
"Come in."
Mo Kun walked in, and Tian Gang was sitting on an office chair with a tablet in his hand.
"Tell me, what's going on?"
Seeing Mo Kun, Tian Gang pushed the platform over from his desk, and on it was an open news report.
Mo Kun flipped through it, and it was NTU's criticism and accusations, accusing him of seriously plagiarizing the mathematical ideas, theories and data of Xu Chuan, a doctoral student at NTU.
As soon as this news report came out, it instantly pulled up the public opinion that had gradually calmed down.
A top 985 university in China has come to an end, and there are a lot of things involved.
Unlike the previous Professor Artur Γvila, although he was a Fields Medal winner, he was not a domestic person after all, and had less influence on the country.
But NTU is different, although NTU is not as good as Peking University in the ranking of domestic universities, but it has been established for a long time, and has cultivated a lot of celebrity alumni, and has enough energy in China.
NTU personally ended, and Peking University also had to worry about the situation.
"Didn't you say this was your exchange with Professor Avila? What is the situation with Xu Chuan? Tian Gang asked as he knocked on the desk made of mahogany.
"He was indeed there, and in addition to him, there was also a student from Sun Moon University, as I mentioned before."
Mo Kun replied calmly, he still had to find a way to stabilize the situation.
"But you didn't say he was the main contributor to the theory." Tian Gang asked in a slightly raised tone.
"Xu Chuan did participate, but the contribution was not high, teacher." Mo Kun replied to Tian Gang's words, and continued.
"He's just a doctoral student, a doctoral student, and he's only eighteen years old, even if he learns well, what ability can he have?"
"He and the other person are just students, since they are students, they are still in the learning stage, and the non-null hypothesis of the L-function is the core problem of the L-function in the Langlands program, and he probably has not been exposed to such a problem."
Mo Kun was still quibbling for himself, he was gambling that no one could know the details of what happened a few months ago.
Hearing this, Tian Gang laughed angrily: "He has no mathematical ability? Did you enter the Morningstar Math Award in May for nothing? β
"He proved the world-class Weyl-Berry conjecture and won the Morning Star Mathematics Gold Award, such a mathematician, you say he has no mathematical ability?"
Mo Kun: "But the Weyl-Berry conjecture is a difficult problem in the field of isospectral and partial differential equations, while the non-null hypothesis of the L-function is in the field of number theory. β
"These are two completely different fields, and in just one year, you can achieve significant results in both fields, do you think it's possible, teacher? Even Tao Zhexuan has not been so evil. β
Tian Gang snorted and said, "I don't think it's possible not to be important, the key is that people directly threw out the evidence!" β
"Evidence? What evidence? β
Mo Kun was stunned for a moment, his heart suddenly panicked, and he quickly flipped the tablet in his hand.
Sure enough, at the back of the news report, several pictures full of modifications came into his eyes.
Below the picture, there is also Xu Chuan's accusation against him.
[If Professor Mo can find a little bit of his handwriting from these data calculations, Professor Artur Γvila and I will drop the charges and apologize to him.] γ
But I can assure you that he can't find anything in it that belongs to him. γ
[In other words, this Professor Mo not only copied the ideas and theories that I exchanged with Professor Avila, but also plagiarized the calculation process and calculation data that we improvised during the exchange at night.] γ
[Such absurd things, such serious academic misconduct, I don't know how he can confidently say that he is the main communicator.] γ
[This is a vicious academic plagiarism incident, and I hope that Peking University and the "Advances in Mathematics" that logged in this paper will pay attention to this matter and deal with it seriously. γ
The familiar picture made his Tong Kong shrink violently.
These pictures, as he knew very well, were the result of a discussion between Xu Chuan and Professor Artur Γvila at the Morningstar Mathematics Prize Gala.
The core of his proof that the non-null hypothesis of the l-function was taken from this.
But why, why is this thing still there?
Why did the manuscript of this preliminary controversy remain in his hands?
Normally, this kind of manuscript paper that records preliminary data will be sorted out and thrown away, and the manuscript paper after secondary sorting cannot be used as evidence at all.
Only this generation of manuscript paper, through the comparison of handwriting and the derivation of theoretical ideas, it can be seen at a glance that he is indeed plagiarized.
The drawings are quite complete, and you can clearly see the extension of the theoretical and computational data from beginning to end, and there are no gaps.
γ
In other words, he simply can't excuse the other party for not taking out the manuscript data he participated in.
What's more, none of these manuscripts have his handwriting.
If there was one, he could have continued with the previous reason, and he did participate in the discussion.
But without a single one, it is impossible to say that he provides the theory, and the others are responsible for the calculation, right?
In other ways it may be possible, but mathematics, don't dream.
If your basic knowledge is not up to standard, you will not be able to write the calculation process, even if the theory is given to you.
If you are involved in this discussion and are the main communicator, you will inevitably leave your own calculations on these papers.
But he didn't, and in this case, to say that he was the main communicator would be untenable at all.
Chinese can also copy the answers, but mathematics, you can't copy the answers, because you don't understand the calculation process.
It's just that Mo Kun never figured out why these original manuscript papers are still there?
Shouldn't the contents be thrown away or broken after tidying up?
Mo Kun was stunned, he couldn't help but stiffen a little, and cold sweat was faintly breaking out on his forehead.
As soon as these picture evidence came out, he couldn't do it if he wanted to deny plagiarism.
In any case, the crime of using other people's theoretical ideas and computational data without their consent cannot be escaped.
Even if he is also a person involved in the exchange, he can't get away with this crime.
.......
In the office, Tian Gang looked at his student's somewhat trembling body and sighed in his heart.
Judging from the current situation, not to mention that he plagiarized it completely, it is not far away.
Mo Kun didn't explain the situation to him.
If it had been a simple plagiarism of Professor Artur Γvila, it would not have come to this.
But when it comes to the teenager, it's even worse.
Maybe Mo Kun didn't know the significance of the NTU student to the national level, but he did.
At the age of eighteen, winning the Morningstar Mathematics Prize, and indirectly promoting the Morningstar Mathematics Prize to be awarded nearly two months earlier, this energy is already quite terrifying in the domestic academic community.
After the "Weil-Berry Conjecture" was proved, the genius of NTU has been defined by the upper echelons as the "leader of the young generation of mathematics".
The purpose of the attention and promotion of major official media is to further his reputation, expand the influence of Huaguo in the international mathematical community, and win the Fields Medal two years later.
This year, Yau Chengtong cooperated with the above to hold the Morningstar Mathematics Prize two months earlier, and the purpose is also to win the Cafford Prize in December this year, as well as other international mathematics prizes in the next two years.
These are awards that no one in China has ever won.
If he had known from the beginning that Mo Kun's paper was mainly plagiarized by that teenager, and it was plagiarized in this way, he would definitely not have chosen to respond publicly.
Now, it's too late.
This year's Clafford Prize has entered the preliminary selection process, and the name Xu Chuan has also entered the eyes of the judges of the Royal Swedish Academy of Sciences.
At this juncture, aren't you asking for trouble when you plagiarize his theories and calculations?
And you are not copying the theory alone, you are even copying other people's manuscript paper data, plagiarizing all of them, the core can be said to be almost all other people's things, you have done some corner beating and subsequent expansion.
This nature is completely different.
Retraction, apology, these are for sure, and I hope to protect this student.
Tian Gang sighed, after all, he had been with him for so many years, but if he really couldn't keep it, there was no way.
The Department of Mathematics of Peking University must draw a clear line with him, and he must not be involved in the water because of this incident.
