Chapter 456
November 10.
U.S. capital, New York.
The award ceremony of the 16th Veblen Prize was held in the Great Hall of the Headquarters of the American Mathematical Society.
More than 300 mathematicians attended this awards ceremony.
The big names in digital geometry and topology came to the scene.
For example, Professor Fresnel, the prover of the Poincaré conjecture, and Professor Dexter, who has the title of “King of Topology”…
As candidates, Cheng Nuo and the other five nominated mathematicians sat in the second row of the hall.
Mr. Odd Lens, the president of the American Mathematical Society, who was nearly 70 years old, walked to the microphone tremblingly on crutches.
Received a sealed letter from the staff, which contained the list of winners of this Veblen Prize.
Under the attention of everyone, President Odder tore open the envelope and took out a piece of cardboard.
The names of three people are written on it.
“I am very happy to present this sacred award once again. The Veblen Award has been around for nearly fifty years since its establishment. The original intention of this award was to recognize those who have made contributions in the field of geometry and topology. Mathematicians who have made great contributions. Let their research results get the honor of application. Also work hard to make the world recognize the weight of Veblen’s prize.” President Odder said in his modest voice, “Now I can be sure In other words, we did it. And those award-winning mathematicians did not live up to our trust, and continued to continue to shine in the mathematics career, climbing one limit after another.”
“Now, it’s up to me to announce the winners of the 16th Veblen. They are…”
President Odder’s voice suddenly increased a bit.
Everyone in the audience also raised their ears, looking forward to this tense moment.
“They are: Cheng Nuo! Noah Emmet! Kenneth Emmet! Let us congratulate the three mathematicians!”
On the scene, thunderous applause!
A faint smile appeared on Cheng Nuo’s mouth when he heard his name.
Although I had expected it for a long time, winning the Veblen Prize is indeed a delight.
The Veblen Award, although not known to the public, has a very high gold content in the industry.
Especially in the fields of geometry and topology, the gold content of this award is second only to the Fields Medal, the highest award in mathematics.
Sometimes, with such an award in hand, it is enough to stay in a university and wait for death.
Of course, Cheng Nuo’s goal is the Fields Award, and he will never stop his progress just because he won the Veblen Award.
“Following, three award-winning mathematicians will come to the stage to receive the award.”
Under the envy of the mathematicians, Cheng Nuo and the other two award-winning mathematicians got up and walked onto the stage.
When Cheng Nuo, a young and handsome man, stood on the podium, he instantly became the focus of everyone.
It has long been heard that a young mathematician named Cheng Nuo has sprung up some time ago and has become the hottest winner of the Veblen Prize.
Seeing Cheng Nuo’s true appearance now, the group of elderly mathematicians scratched their sparse hair speechlessly.
Even if Cheng Nuo is young, the key is… he is so handsome.
Looking at the brilliant Cheng Nuo on the stage, he knew that he was an award-winning mathematician, but what he didn’t know thought he was a special star invited by the Mathematical Society!
President Audder hung three medals made of pure gold on the necks of the three of them, and then handed each of them a red leather award certificate.
Cheng Nuo has also become the youngest Veblen Prize winner at the age of 21!
The three winners then took turns to express their acceptance speech.
Cheng Nuo also said some routines like thanking the school, thanking the teacher, thanking the parents, etc., and returned to his seat amid the applause of everyone.
After the awards, there will be a dinner.
As the youngest winner in history, Cheng Nuo is naturally the focus of attention.
Many people came to talk to Cheng Nuo, some were to talk about academic issues, and some came purely to establish a relationship with Cheng Nuo.
Cheng Nuo has a promising future, and there is Professor Fresnel behind the mountain. They don’t want to be friends with Cheng Nuo, they just want not to be friends with Cheng Nuo.
Cheng Nuo did not refuse.
It is only now that he has really come into contact with the “high-end society” of mathematics for the first time. There is no academic style in the United States, and Cheng Nuo does not need to stand in line.
Making good friends with mathematicians from major colleges and universities will only benefit oneself, not harm.
During the conversation with Cheng Nuo, everyone found that Cheng Nuo was not as arrogant and defiant as they thought. Instead, he was very humble, saying that he was very young and that he would need guidance from seniors in the future.
After the dinner, stayed in the hotel for one night, and the next schedule Nuo rushed back to MIT with Professor Fresnel and several MIT mathematicians.
…………
In terms of professional title, Cheng Nuo is currently an associate professor at the Massachusetts Institute of Technology.
But this semester has already arranged the class schedule, Cheng Nuo has no teaching task. Cheng Nuo also wandered around the laboratory building and library every day.
However, within a few days, Cheng Nuo received an invitation from the college to give a lecture on the Jacobi Conjecture.
About the lecture, Cheng Nuo remembered that Professor Fresnel mentioned it to himself more than a month ago. But then he turned down after busying with his graduation thesis.
But Cheng Nuo is now a regular employee of the Massachusetts Institute of Technology ~www.mtlnovel.com~ and there is no important work on hand, so it is no longer easy to refuse.
After confirming the time with the college, Cheng Nuo briefly prepared the content of the lecture.
The day of the lecture.
Cheng Nuo thought it would be good if there were thirty or forty students who could come to listen. After all, there were more than one or two big bosses at MIT.
The Veblen Prize he won can definitely be the king in an ordinary university, but at MIT, only the Nobel Prize and the Fields Medal are eligible.
During the same period, there were several big men who gave lectures with him. Unexpectedly, there were more than one hundred students.
The small lecture hall was full of seats.
In fact, what Cheng Nuo didn’t know was that the purpose of the hundreds of students who came to the scene was not to hear the specific content of the lecture, but to meet Cheng Nuo.
The youngest doctor of science, the youngest Veblen Prize winner, the youngest associate professor of the School of Mathematics…
There are too many legends in Cheng Nuo.
Most of the students present were older than Cheng Nuo, but they were still studying for PhD and postgraduate studies, and Cheng Nuo… had already achieved fame!
Not convinced?
It must be there.
All of them are the pride of heaven, and they have long been used to being hailed as geniuses!
But they found that compared with Cheng Nuo, their genius name is simply a big joke!
As a result, their self-esteem was severely hit, and they were like seeing with their own eyes, whether Cheng Nuo was as enchanting as the rumors!
