Chapter 131 Creating a Miracle in One Day "Whoo~" In the empty classroom, Xu Qingzhou breathed a sigh of relief when he saw that his submission was successful. The 63-page proof process was finally completed. After uploading the paper, Xu Qingzhou packed up his things and strode out of the classroom. Now, he didn't want to do anything except go back and have a good sleep. This is a huge argument, hundreds of mathematical calculations intricately constructed through thousands of logical links. If just one calculation goes wrong or one link doesn't connect, the entire proof loses its value. Therefore, during this period of time he hardly dared to relax at all and remained tense the entire time. Xu Qingzhou slept for three hours and did not get up until 3 o'clock in the afternoon. After washing up, he took out the Outline of Modern History and Ideological and Moral Cultivation and Legal Basis which had been gathering dust for a long time from the bookshelf, went to the cafeteria to have a meal, and then went to the library. Originally, he planned to finish the paper within five days, but it took until the 29th. Tomorrow I will take an exam on the Outline of Modern History, on the morning of the 31st I will take an exam on Ideological and Moral Cultivation and Legal Basis, and in the afternoon I will take an exam on English. It is so rushed. In the evening, Ding Jiahui and Guo Ziyang made an appointment to celebrate the New Year together.
Then, in addition to the professional course examinations of the School of Mathematics, you also have to take the examinations of the School of Physics. There is no need to take exams for public courses, but for professional courses, one has to take advanced mathematics, linear algebra, and general physics. This is all thanks to Xu Qingzhou who was exempted from the exams and is a lucky guy, otherwise he would have really felt what despair is. Library, 3rd floor atrium. Before the exam week, the library was packed with people, and even a lazy guy like Xu Zhengyang came to sharpen his skills for the exam, seeking psychological comfort. As for him, he is not just sharpening his sword, he is here to create miracles. Xu Qingzhou saw Song Yao in a familiar position, and searched around the library again. Finally, he found a stool and moved it to the opposite side of Song Yao. Song Yao is reading a book called "Principles of Economics". Seeing Xu Qingzhou take out a brand new modern history book, Song Yao stopped writing and asked in a low voice, "How far have you reviewed?" "Just the beginning." Xu Qingzhou said. At this time, looking at the thick book, he actually felt like he had no idea where to start. Song Yao frowned: "You will take the modern history outline test tomorrow night." "Yeah." Xu Qingzhou nodded, his expression serious: "That's why I came here to study hard." Song Yao was a little speechless. She had clearly reminded him to pay attention to the time some time ago. Wasn't it okay to submit the paper a few days later? Now look what happened. He was just waiting to die. Each college has different teachers who set the questions, but the exam content is the same, so even if she wanted to highlight the key points, she couldn't do it. She could only urge him angrily: "Stop talking and recite the book quickly." On the evening of December 12, when Xu Qingzhou was frantically reciting knowledge points, the article entitled "Mathematical Model of Electromagnetic Properties and Thermal Conduction Performance of Superconducting Niobium-Titanium Alloy" was published in the Journal of Physics of Xiaguo. As for the project funds, they were also distributed on the 28th. Xu Qingzhou did not go on the trip. Zhao Shengwen was indeed generous and gave him a total of 4 yuan, including the bonus for the paper. Jinling University. Professor Lu Yangui said: "You have all read those papers from Peking University, right?" "The mathematical model is quite perfect, especially the Navier-Stokes equations and fluid dynamics equations simplified by Fourier transform. Junior Brother Wang, you deserve to lose."
The young man nodded, recalling the contents of the paper with some emotion. On the side, the young man wearing glasses sighed and said helplessly: "Yes, I lost completely." Professor Lu Yangui comforted him, "Xiao Wang, don't underestimate yourself. It's not that the other party is better than you in mathematics, such as you are good at functional analysis and number theory. He is better than you in physics foundation." "Why haven't I heard of this person Xu Qingzhou before?" The young man on the right was curious. "I asked around and found out that it's not from the Physics Department. It should be that guy Zhao Shengwen borrowed it from the School of Mathematics at Peking University." After saying this, seeing that the student surnamed Wang was a little shocked, Professor Lu Yangui patted him on the shoulder: "Okay, Xiaguo's mathematics community is not small, but it's not big either. Those who can come up with this model will most likely not be unknown in the future. As long as you stay in this circle, you will meet them sooner or later." The exam on December 12th came as scheduled, and Xu Qingzhou still lost in the public course exam. I originally thought that I was a genius who was hindered by physics, but I was given a wake-up call in the first exam. As soon as the modern history test paper was handed out, he stared at it with his eyes wide open. In a word: I didn’t memorize anything that I passed the test on, and I didn’t take the test on anything that I memorized. There were also brave brothers who stood up and handed in their papers as soon as half an hour into the exam, leaving Xu Qingzhou with a dashing back view. After taking a deep breath, he lowered his head and wrote quickly. The exam for this subject is not like science, where 1 is 1, 2 is 2, and any deviation will result in zero points. As long as the general direction is correct, you will basically get points. Therefore, Xu Qingzhou tried his best to fill in the test paper, and basically all the answers were given by him based on his experience. Should be pretty much the same? Anyway, how many points you can get in the end depends on the teacher. While Xu Qingzhou was nervously studying for the exam, on the other side of the ocean, in a traditional American house, Elton Prieto, editor of the editorial department of "Mathematical Inventions", had just finished his breakfast. While his wife was clearing the dishes, he was preparing to go back to the study to look at the manuscript. In the study, Elton turned on his computer, logged into the backend of "Mathematical Inventions", and looked at the paper submissions accumulated during the Christmas holidays. Uh ~ He was suddenly attracted by a name. qingzhou·xu It's a bit familiar. Oh, it’s the young man from Xia Guo last time. The paper was well written. Thinking of this, he opened the review email. Discussion on the spacing pattern of prime numbers and proof of Cramer’s conjecture? Looking at the title, Elton smiled bitterly and rubbed his temples. In this year, he had submitted more than a dozen proofs of various conjectures. For example, before the Christmas holiday, I received a proof of Hodge's conjecture from a mathematics enthusiast. What's funny is that this scholar hasn't even solved the problem of algebraic closed chains. Although many mathematics enthusiasts have failed in their attempts to prove conjectures, countless people are still flocking to it. This may be the charm of mathematics, and of course, the attraction of becoming famous. Cramer's conjecture is very difficult. Even the Swedish mathematician Cramer, who proposed this conjecture, once said, "When I discovered this conjecture, I didn't really bother trying to prove it because I knew it would be painful."
There are many people who study this conjecture, such as Fields Medal winner Gerrit Boyle, who currently teaches at Princeton, or Professor Juraj Milton of the Institute of Advanced Mathematics in Cambridge. These people all wanted to find the way to the peak of mathematical truth, but unfortunately, no one succeeded. (End of this chapter)
