The winners of the Fields Medal were announced, and the topic of the famous international mathematical forum MathoverFlow was instantly high.

Although it was a bit surprising that the Gauss Award was awarded to Professor Xu, it was not too surprising and discussed for many melon-eating netizens on the forum.

After all, this is well deserved.

However, the Fields Medal that followed surprised all netizens who were squatting on the results.

This year's International Congress of Mathematicians awarded two Fields Medal medals to women for the first time in history.

And one of them is a genius girl who is only twenty-six years old.

Twenty-six-year-old, female Fields Medal winner, tutor is the first person in the field of mathematics today. Layers of aura were added to the body, instantly obscuring the light of the other three winners.

In front of her, another female Fields Medal winner, Professor Marina Vyazovska, the light of which is as bright as the difference between a candle and the sun and the moon.

【? The 26-year-old Fields Medal winner, this is too fierce. Professor Race is a year younger, it's terrifying. 】

[There is an insider! ] There's definitely an insider! 】

[Isn't it normal to have an insider? You won't be surprised to know who her mentor is. 】

[Although the age of 26 is surprising enough, the proof and influence of Bloch's conjecture undoubtedly deserves such an honor.] Moreover, she not only proved this conjecture, but also expanded the regular family of all-pure functions and the regular family of subpure functions, which is undoubtedly a new direction for functions. 】

[What surprised me even more was that there were two women in this year's Philippine Awards, which is incredible! ] 】

[What's wrong with women? Don't women deserve the Philippines Award? Women just eat your rice? We women can also awaken in mathematics and make great achievements! 】

[6, this awakening is okay, awakening every day (squinting smile)]

The MathoverFlow forums are hotly discussed, not just about Fields Medal winners, but also about some of the most famous things of our era.

There is no doubt that the birth of two female Fields Medal winners this year is a big upset, and some people have also found opportunities to start their own performances.

However, compared with other fields, the mathematical community has not been deeply penetrated.

After all, this is also a field of enclosure and self-play, and the threshold for entering this field is not low.

Even if you want to register an account on the MathoverFlow forum, you need a minimum bachelor's degree.

So the number of people who can enter this circle is still very small.

At the same time, on the other side, in the lecture hall of the Imperial Hotel in Talon, applause poured in waves and stretched endlessly.

Four Fields Medal winners have already worn their medals, and the most exciting part of the International Congress of Mathematicians has passed.

Whether it was the scholars who stood on the stage to receive the awards, or the other scholars who came to participate in the conference, they all had excitement and smiles on their faces.

In the front row of the lecture hall, Xu Chuan also applauded, with a happy smile on his face.

Although it was a little surprising that Amelia could win the Fields Medal at this conference, he was also sincerely happy for himself as a student, and he was also glad for himself.

After all, being able to bring out a Fields Medal winner is not a burying of the other party's talent.

However, to Xu Chuan's surprise, it seems that his award is gone.

After all, the Fields Medals are all gone, unless the International Mathematical Union is ready to break the rules and make an exception to award a fifth Fields Medal.

However, it should be unlikely that this will be done, after all, the reason why the Philippine Award is a Philippine Award is that it has always adhered to academics, with academics as the core, and is not disturbed by outside politics, positions and worldliness.

The enthusiastic applause gradually subsided like a raging storm.

Standing on the lecture platform, Professor Kennig glanced around the lecture hall, looked at the teleprompter in his hand, took a deep breath, and said slowly: "According to the process, after the announcement of the Fields Medal list, the opening ceremony of the International Congress of Mathematicians will officially fall. ”

"Still."

After a pause, he continued: "In response to the deliberations of the Executive Committee of the League of Nations and a number of internationally renowned mathematicians, the final award will be presented after the announcement of the winners of this year's Fields Medal, in order to encourage and reward the great contributions made by the winners to the mathematical community."

As Professor Kenneg spoke, the entire lecture hall fell silent.

Many scholars who came to the mathematics conference raised their heads and looked at the lecture table in surprise.

After the Fields Medal is presented, there is another award?

What is it?

What award could have been put to the end more than the Fields Medal?

After thinking about it, many people's eyes showed a deep curiosity.

On the lecture platform, Master Kenneg's eyes scanned the lecture hall again, and finally landed on a seat in the front row, and met the figure in the seat for a moment.

With a smile in his eyes, he slowly spoke: "We often think that mathematics is the foundation of all other sciences. This is because mathematics provides a precise and logical way of expressing natural phenomena that can help scientists better understand and explain natural phenomena, thereby advancing scientific research. ”

"But there are very few people in the mathematical community who can do that."

"And for the winner of the last award to be presented today, although he is still very young, the mathematical problems he solves, the mathematical tools he creates, and the scientific and technological research development he integrates and promotes are enough for the vast majority of scholars to study for a lifetime."

"I believe that every scholar and even everyone here has heard of his deeds. It is difficult to tell those wonderful and great stories at today's opening ceremony, but the books of civilization will always be remembered, and his name will be engraved in the long river of history."

On the lecture stage, Professor Kennig's presentation was slowly progressing.

Under the stage, the scholars present, and even the staff who maintained order were listening attentively, and most of them had already guessed who this additional award would be awarded.

Except for the extremely young pervert, there is probably no second person who can make this decision from the International Mathematical Union.

Whether it is a mathematical method for exploring high-energy particle channels, a mathematical method for calculating distant galaxies and celestial bodies, or a method for controlling the turbulence of high-temperature plasma, or a material calculation model, each such name can be said to be a result that can make people proud for a lifetime."

"After deliberation by the International Mathematical Union Committee, it was decided to establish the 'Fields Medal Special Award' and award it to this scholar who has made great contributions to mathematics!"

Taking a deep breath, Kennig looked at the lecture desk and said calmly and forcefully, "And the scholar who won this 'Fields Medal Special Award' is"

"Professor Xu Chuan!"

The moment the words fell, thunderous applause struck like a summer rainstorm and wind, resounding throughout the lecture hall.

Standing up amid a warm applause, Xu Chuan took a deep breath and walked smoothly onto the report table.

He really didn't expect that the International Mathematical Union would make such a decision.

A Fields Medal special award is enough to show the recognition and attention of the mathematical community!
