Princeton University, Institute of Advanced Mathematics.
The Annals of Mathematics is known as the largest journal in the field of mathematics and is affiliated to the Institute of Advanced Mathematics at Princeton University.
Although it was late at night, several offices in the Institute of Advanced Mathematics were still brightly lit.
“Bill, get me another cup of coffee!” An old professor with a white beard told his students without looking up.
“Professor, you have not rested all day and night. For your health, I suggest you stop working.” Bill persuaded.
The old professor wearing reading glasses leaned down and scanned the line of formulas on the paper with infatuation, seeming to look at another peerless beauty.
“Genius, what a genius brain is to write such beautiful mathematical language!”
Seeing that his teacher was already immersed in his own world, Bill shook his head helplessly, picked up the coffee cup and walked out of the office.
As soon as I left the house, I saw a blond young man with a coffee cup coming out of the office next door. The two looked at each other and both smiled bitterly.
“Hey, Bill, you said what happened to these professors. They cherished their bodies to their deaths before, but since the dean called everyone up for a meeting the day before yesterday, they all seemed to be beaten up with blood and worked endlessly. Dozens of hours.” The blond young man asked.
Bill shook his head, “I don’t know the details.”
“But I heard from the teacher that a few days ago, the Annals of Mathematics received submissions of four papers. At this stage, what several professors are doing is the verification of these four papers. As for the content of the papers, and the submission It’s not clear which mathematician is for the four papers.”
“But I got a gossip. Tomorrow, Professor Fresnel of MIT, Professor Koper and Professor Dickens of Harvard University will all come to our school to assist the Annals of Mathematics in verifying four papers.”
“Fuck…fuck!” The blond young man was already speechless in surprise.
After a long time, he murmured, “Fresnel, Korbain, Dickens, these three are all Philippine award winners!”
“Add in the three professors of our school who have won the Philippine Award, so there are… six in total!”
The blond young man spit heavily, “Six big Philippine awards, such a luxurious lineup, what are they verifying? And, what kind of article is it to invite these six big bosses!”
Today, there are only eight Philippine Prize winners who are still active in American mathematics.
And the “Annual of Mathematics” gathered six people in one breath this time. Is this… Is there an earthquake in the mathematics world?
…………
The blond youth was right, the mathematics community is indeed about to usher in an earthquake.
The editor-in-chief of “The Annals of Mathematics” and also the dean of the College of Mathematics, Brewer, had such a premonition when he saw Cheng Nuo’s four papers.
Cheng Nuo, the editor-in-chief of Brewer is no stranger to this name.
At that time, Cheng Nuo’s paper to solve the two major problems of the minimal model program was published in the “Annual Journal of Mathematics”.
Originally, at that time, Brewer saw that Cheng Nuo had great potential and high mass production, so he had the idea of establishing a fixed contract relationship with Cheng Nuo.
But when Cheng Nuo suddenly returned to China, the matter was stranded.
Until later it came out that Cheng Nuo was conquering the BSD conjecture, and this plan was officially aborted.
After that, the editor-in-chief of Brewer paid little attention to Cheng Nuo, and rarely heard of the news of Cheng Nuo in the international mathematics community.
Until…that day!
When Brewer saw the titles of Cheng Nuo’s four essays, he was completely confused.
The first reaction is, how is it possible?
Then he spent more than a day staying up all night to read Cheng Nuo’s first paper, which is the “Three-step Proof of BSD Conjecture”.
Although there are several parts in the middle, he did not fully understand, but as a whole, there is no logical error in Cheng Nuo’s paper.
This surprised him.
But at the same time, it also made Brewer aware of the seriousness of the situation.
BSD conjecture, has it really been proven?
So he immediately called a meeting to bring some top professors from the Advanced Mathematics Institute over to discuss this time.
At the meeting, Brewer handed over four papers to several professors for reading. In the end, they received unanimous attention from several professors.
A review group dedicated to these four papers by Cheng Nuo was quickly formed.
The members include three Philippine Prize winners and two Wolf Prize winners.
But after two days of research, Brewer found that the panel of reviewers was completely insufficient.
There are four papers in total, and the paper that proves the BSD conjecture needs at least five professors to review and check.
For the remaining three papers, each paper needs at least two professors.
With a total of more than 300 pages of papers, the workload is quite huge.
No way, Princeton’s manpower was almost exhausted by Brewer, and he could only ask for help from other universities in the United States.
I heard that the BSD conjecture may be successfully proved. No one in the universities that received the news could sit down. They sent mathematicians to Princeton one after another.
Professor Fresnel took the nearest flight to Princeton Town as soon as he got the news.
After more than a year, Professor Fresnel finally heard the familiar name-Cheng Nuo!
And what is implicated by Cheng Nuo this time is one of the seven famous conjectures in mathematics, the BSD conjecture!
The moment he heard the news, Professor Fresnel was overjoyed and surprised.
After more than a year of silence, Fresnel was really worried that his proud student would be devastated by the frustration of BSD conjecture, and finally lost his way to everyone.
But now, Cheng Nuo has submitted a proof paper of the BSD conjecture to the “Annual Journal of Mathematics”.
Based on Professor Fresnel’s understanding of Cheng Nuo, since Cheng Nuo dared to submit a paper and successfully made his research public, he must have absolute confidence.
Cheng Nuo will never do things that are uncertain.
Although I don’t understand how Cheng Nuo did it~www.mtlnovel.com~, Professor Fresnel is proud of himself as a student, and also proud!
Twenty years ago, he proved the Poincaré conjecture, one of the seven major mathematical conjectures, and became famous!
Twenty years later, his student Cheng Nuo proved the BSD conjecture among the seven mathematical conjectures!
This will definitely become a beautiful talk in the history of world mathematics.
…………
Six Philippine Prize winners, four Wolf Prize winners, plus professors from other schools, a total of 20 mathematicians form a luxurious panel in the history of mathematics.
Even the review of the Poincaré conjecture proof process twenty years ago did not mobilize so many bigwigs.
With the participation of several bigwigs, the review process was cut in half.
It took ten days to work overtime and four papers were reviewed.
The official website of the Princeton Institute of Advanced Mathematics also announced to the outside world this news that would cause a sensation in the world:
The BSD conjecture was successfully proved!
