Chapter 324: Winning Two Fields Medals?
Jinling, Nanda.
After dealing with things related to the NS equation, Xu Chuan also reappeared in the office.
"Professor, you're out!" In the office, after seeing his mentor, Gu Bing shouted in surprise.
Xu Chuan nodded and said hello to the two students.
On the side, Amelia asked a little excitedly: "Professor, you proved the NS equation this time, will the International Mathematical Union give you another Fields Medal?" ”
Hearing this, Xu Chuan was stunned for a moment.
To be honest, he hadn't really thought about it.
But honestly, it doesn't seem impossible?
The Fields Medal is selected by the Executive Committee of the League of Nations on strict criteria, with only outstanding breakthroughs in a field of mathematics to be eligible for the prize, and the laureate must be under the age of forty.
Because one of its main purposes is to encourage young scholars to climb the heights.
Although it is true that no one in history has won the Fields Medal twice, it seems that there is no explicit rule that a person cannot win the Fields Medal twice?
He won a Fields Medal for solving the Hodge conjecture before, and this year he solved the NS equation, maybe there is a chance to win another one?
However, this is not certain, after all, the nature of the Fields Medal and the Nobel Prize are still somewhat different.
The Nobel Prize is awarded to achievement, and if you contribute enough, you can win it twice.
The Fields Medal is awarded to individuals, a bit like the Wolf Prize, which is a lifetime achievement award, and is not given once.
Originally, Xu Chuan didn't think about winning the Fei Award for the second time, but when Amelia asked him like this, he was a little curious.
After all, the weight of the two millennial problems is still quite heavy for the mathematical community.
He was also a little curious about what the International Mathematical Union would do.
If he were to be awarded a second one, it would break the rules of history.
If it is not awarded, I am afraid that none of the other mathematical achievements can be beaten in front of the NS equation.
More critically, if it is awarded this time, he also has in his hands the seven millennial problems 'the existence and quality gap of Jan Mills,' which is the result of his last life.
If you get it this time, you will definitely be able to win another Philippine award in the future.
After all, he is less than twenty-four years old this year, and it is only eight years to wait for two more mathematics conferences, and he is not yet forty at that time.
Three Fields Medals for one person, which is also terrifying.
After thinking about it, Xu Chuan also felt that it was a little unrealistic.
After chatting with the two students for a while, Xu Chuan turned on the computer in the office and dealt with the emails and things of the past two days.
After a while, there was a knock on the office door.
Xu Chuan shouted to please come in, and it was Cai Peng who walked in with a schoolbag.
"Congratulations, Professor, for solving another century of puzzles." Cai Peng congratulated with a smile.
Seeing Cai Peng, Xu Chuan reacted, he had left a few test questions for him before, which was originally given him three days to do it, but he forgot about it later because of the NS equation.
Smiling, he said, "It's just a paper, and everything is undecided without peer review." ”
"What about the question I gave you last time, are you done? Show me. ”
Hearing this, Cai Peng hurriedly turned his backpack from behind him, took out a manuscript paper and handed it over, and said with some embarrassment:
"Well, Professor, I only made three questions in three days, and I only made two questions later. I separated, the top three lanes, and the bottom one behind. ”
Xu Chuan took the manuscript paper and said, "I'll take a look first." ”
For Cai Peng's self-confession, to be honest, he still has a good impression.
After all, more than a month has passed, and he hasn't checked it, Cai Peng can say that he has made all five questions in three days, and no one knows whether it's true or false.
At least in terms of academic honesty, so far he has passed.
Flipping through the manuscript paper in his hand, Xu Chuan looked at the answer of this former senior brother, and put down the answer sheet after a while.
Looking up, he looked at Cai Peng with a smile and said, "It's okay, congratulations on passing the assessment." ”
For him, looking at the answer is not simply to test Cai Peng's knowledge, but also to see his relevant ideas for solving problems and whether he has some things of his own.
For him, these can basically be seen at a glance.
Professor Zhou Hai said before that there is indeed no problem, after experiencing the second opening of the problem, Cai Peng's talent in mathematics seems to have been opened up to the eight veins of the Qi Jing, at least in the field of differential equations, he has begun to have his own unique ideas.
Hearing this, Cai Pengqiang held back his excitement and clenched his fists tightly to make himself appear a little calmer: "Thank you, Professor!" ”
Xu Chuan smiled and said, "Don't thank me, this is the opportunity you won for yourself." ”
"In addition, it is not so easy to study with me, if you want to complete your studies from me, you need at least one SCI research paper."
Cai Peng nodded vigorously and said, "I will work hard!" ”
Xu Chuan smiled: "Come on." ”
After a pause, he shouted to the other two students in the office, "Gu Bing, Amelia, come here." ”
As soon as the words fell, Gu Bing and Amelia quickly ran over, and one of them slapped Cai Peng on the shoulder.
"Congratulations, Senior Brother Cai!"
"Beautiful!"
Seeing this, Xu Chuan touched his chin and smiled: "When did your relationship become so good?" ”
Amelia said with a smile: "Senior Brother Cai has been coming here every day for the past month, so he is naturally familiar with it. ”
Xu Chuan smiled, he didn't care too much, he estimated that not only did he come here every day, but it seemed that there should be something else.
But none of this matters, as long as the academic knowledge and academic honesty are passed.
"Okay, you'll get along." Xu Chuan said with a smile: "Cai Peng, you find a place to sit by yourself, your direction is differential equations, if you don't understand anything, you can ask me directly, if I am not there, you can find Gu Bing first, he should be able to teach you some." ”
"In addition, if you have any other questions about your student status, I will take you to the Academic Affairs Office to deal with it when I find a time."
"Okay professor."
Cai Peng answered, found a place and sat down.
In the academic world, it is a very normal and traditional thing for a senior brother to lead a junior brother.
After all, professors at the doctoral level often have their own research in their hands, and sometimes they are busy and often nest in the laboratory for months.
At this time, it is normal for the senior brother to teach some basic knowledge of the junior brother who has just started and answer some doubts instead of the tutor.
After dealing with Cai Peng's affairs, Xu Chuan just wanted to go back and deal with his own affairs, when he heard Gu Bing shout with some hesitation.
"Professor."
Xu Chuan turned his head, glanced at Gu Bing, saw that he was entangled, and asked curiously: "What's the matter, say something directly." ”
After being entangled for a while, Gu Bing still spoke: "Recently, there is a foreign media report that smeared you, professor, do you want to take a look?" ”
Hearing this, Xu Chuan was stunned for a moment and asked, "Smear me?" ”
"Hmm. About the NS equation. ”
"Oh? What about the news? Send me the link to see. Xu Chuan asked with interest.
To be honest, he really can't think of anything he can hack, and as for the NS equation, could it be that someone can point out the problem in his paper?
If that's the case, he's even more to watch.
"I've sent you, Professor." Gu Bing picked up his mobile phone and sent the news link to Xu Chuan.
Honestly, this kind of thing shouldn't be
"Thank you." Xu Chuan thanked him and clicked on the paper to read it.
But as soon as the news link opened, he frowned slightly.
Because the reporter of the news media is a notorious media outlet.
Founded in 1982 by a Korean-American, "Some" religious leader named "Moon Mingming," the Washington Times has always been one of the most crooked in the press industry.
Especially for scholars of Chinese nationality and nationality, it can be said that every time you log in to this newspaper, there is basically nothing good.
But he wanted to see what the newspaper said about him, or what hacked him.
After all, whether it is academics or character, he has nothing to hack.
PS: It's late, make up for yesterday's second watch, and ask for a monthly pass
