Rebirth 2008: I Can Make Money Reading

Chapter 300: A Sensation in the World: A Mathematical Conjecture Proved (seeking a monthly ticket)

For people who know a little about mathematics, if they make some mathematical conjectures, they are not crazy, then they are fools.

To what extent does the former have to love mathematics?

For example, he is not willing to let him pick a beautiful woman, and he doesn't have to be responsible.

For this kind of person, there is nothing more stimulating than mathematical conjecture, fully immersive research.

And you have to be very confident. Generally, people who are geniuses to the extreme are a little crazy. As long as they are sure about something, they can stick to it no matter the wind or rain.

The latter, do not say worth mentioning.

Oh, now there is another kind of person, who is neither crazy nor foolish.

that is,

hang B!

Of course, Mu Yang didn't cheat completely, at least he didn't use his achievement points. The experience was obtained through his own efforts, um, it wasn't cheating.

Can the matter of scholars be called plagiarism?

For Mu Yang, the experience gained through hard work can be called cheating!

Mu Yang’s two mathematical conjectures, Fermat’s Dading and BSD’s conjecture, went from Under Review to Completed accept, and then to Minor Repair twice. The Minor Repairs were all minor problems, which was quite awesome, and finally passed the review. journal.

The Annals of Mathematics and the Magazine of the Beautiful Chinese Mathematics Society originally planned to publish special issues on August 1, but they were delayed for a few days.

Today, August 10th.

Nine o'clock in the morning BJ time.

Mu Yang's mathematical conjecture was finally published in the special issues of two magazines!

Fermat's last theorem, proposed by the French mathematician Fermat, asserts that when the integer n \u003e 2, the equation x^n + y^n = z^n about x, y, and z has no positive integer solution. In 1993, it was proved by Eagle Country mathematician Andrew Wiles.

Now, it was once again proved by Mu Yang with a new way of proof.

The full name of the BSD conjecture is the Birch and Swinnerton-Dyer conjecture (Birch and Swinnerton-Dyer conjecture), which belongs to the field of number theory. The first half is usually called the weak BSD conjecture. It has been proved by several people, but no one has proved the complete body.

Today, Mu Yang is the first person to fully prove the BSD conjecture.

Since it was proposed, the BSD conjecture has puzzled mathematicians for half a century.

Therefore, for many people in the field of mathematics, if these two mathematical conjectures are proved, it is both exciting and doubtful.

Once a mathematical conjecture is confirmed, it will be transformed into a theorem and incorporated into the mathematical theory system, thus enriching the mathematical theory.

The impact of the solution of mathematical conjectures on the development of mathematics lies not only in the proof or disproving of the conjecture itself, but also in the innovative research methods used in the process of solving mathematical conjectures, which are also important factors affecting the development of mathematics.

Just like this, proving the world mathematical conjecture is undoubtedly the dream of mathematicians.

The authoritative journal "Mathematics Monthly" in the field of mathematics research in the world has attracted widespread attention after its publication.

In addition to books, the special issue also has electronic versions that can be read. Not long after the special issue was published, mathematicians in the field of mathematics at home and abroad knew the news.

At the beginning, media reporters reported on overseas scientific websites, such as:

[Shock: Mu Yang, a young man from Huaguo, proves a mathematical conjecture]

["Mathematics Monthly" and "Pretty Chinese Mathematics Society" jointly published a special issue, announcing that Fermat's Dading and BSD conjecture were proved by Mu Yang, a rich man in Huaguo. 】

【21st Century Mathematics Discovery: Fermat's Dading and BSD Conjecture Confirmed】

In a short period of time, mathematicians in the overseas mathematics field paid attention, studied these two papers, and expressed their personal opinions.

Frank Calegari, a mathematician at the University of Chicago, wrote in a blog post: It has been confirmed that the correctness of Mu Yang's mathematical conjecture is only some details, and more details are needed. I hope to make a more detailed explanation public. This is a shocking information.

The reviewer of Ann. of Math., the top international mathematics journal, said in a comment: "This is an excellent research conclusion. The case of Fermat's Dading involves more difficult analysis of digital-analog curves. Mu The research method used in the Yang paper is very different from that of the mathematician Andrew Wiles. In my opinion, the method used in the paper is novel and powerful...”

Well-known mathematician Michael Atiyah, a Heidelberg Laureate, commented on the forum: "Shocking, I couldn't believe it when I saw what was published in the Mathematical Monthly!

At present, I have finished studying the new proof method of Fermat's Last Theorem, and the logical thinking is more concise. As for the BSD mathematical conjecture, I am currently studying it, and some of the process is not very smooth to read. Explain the method of proof. "

...

In addition to foreign experts, there are also domestic experts in the field of mathematics, who are even more shocked.

Sun Binyong and Zhu Chengbo who successfully proved the multiplicity-one conjecture, Li Jianshu, Zhang Shouwu, Jiang Dihua and other Chinese mathematicians who have made achievements in the world, Wang Qin, a researcher at the School of Mathematics of the Chinese Academy of Sciences, Chen Shuping, the director of the Department of Mathematics of Jiangsu and Zhejiang University, and others. Various ways to comment.

In particular, Chen Shuping from Jiangsu and Zhejiang University, after reading Fermat's new proof method, immediately called Mu Yang's tutor Academician Zhou Heng: "Old Zhou, something big happened, something big happened! Mu Yang proved the mathematical conjecture!"

When Zhou Heng received a call from Chen Shuping early in the morning, he was a little confused and didn't understand: "Uh, what mathematical conjecture?"

"Didn't Mu Yang tell you that he published a mathematical conjecture?"

"What mathematical conjecture, are you kidding me?"

"You are unqualified as a tutor. Mu Yang proved Fermat's Dading and the BSD conjecture. "Mathematics Monthly" and "Pretty Chinese Mathematical Society" jointly published a special issue to announce it. Oh, it was announced this morning. All mathematicians around the world will read it. Afterwards, they all commented, and it is estimated that many people are still studying, oh, it’s amazing! It’s amazing, it’s amazing, it’s really abnormal! Old Zhou, you are really incompetent for saying that you are a cheap master.”

Zhou Heng was stunned for a while, a little excited: "I won't tell you now, I'll call and ask about the situation."

Zhou Heng hung up on Chen Shuping, and immediately called Mu Yang to ask, "Xiao Mu, did you really prove the mathematical conjecture?"

"Yes, teacher."

"Okay, okay, very good, Chen Shuping called me just now, I thought he was fooling me." Zhou Heng was very happy and excited in his words.

"Uh, I didn't expect it either, accident, accident."

"Then you should pay attention these few days. It is estimated that there will be many media interviews. I saw that you were on the news LB yesterday, and the interview performance was very good. I guess there will be another round of news LB. I don't understand. Chen Shuping is right about too advanced mathematics, my tutor is really a cheap teacher, haha, let’s do this first, I’ll go and have a look, and you’re busy first.” Zhou Heng hung up the phone after chatting for a while, he knew Mu Yang is very busy, probably even busier now.

At twelve o'clock in the morning, CNN, the beautiful country's cable news network, also published a report on Mu Yang's proof of a mathematical conjecture on its website.

In addition to CNN, foreign media such as "Washington Post" and "The Times" also reported on this "rich Chinese mathematician", and Mu Yang's story spread all over the world.

William Banks, an expert on Carmichael numbers at the University of Missouri, said in an interview with CNN, "If Mu Yang's derivation is correct, it will be an exciting discovery in the field of mathematics."

Xinghai Group,

From two o'clock in the afternoon, reporters from various media gathered in the reception room, all wanting to interview Mu Yang about mathematical conjectures.

Mu Yang was on News LB yesterday, and today he is still on Hot News.

As a result, as soon as yesterday's hot news was replaced, there was news about Mu Yang proving a mathematical conjecture, and there were two of them at once.

Maybe these media reporters don't know what a mathematical conjecture is, but it doesn't mean they have no vision. They haven't seen foreign media reporting it. Mathematicians from all over the world are evaluating the proof of this mathematical conjecture.

Moreover, Mu Yang is a popular figure. Other mathematicians proved that the mathematical conjecture is one, but he has two at the same time. It is not only 1+1=2, but the difference between missiles and nuclear bombs.

After Song Xuelu heard the news, she also called Mu Yang to inquire about the situation. She didn't know that Mu Yang had discovered the paper on mathematics, but she understood the influence of being able to prove mathematical conjectures. She was still shocked at this time.

At five o'clock in the afternoon, Xinghai Group had already gathered a large number of media reporters, many of whom had rushed over from Jiangnan Province, and some were stationed in City H and wanted to interview Mu Yang.

On this day, Mu Yang was bombarded by phone calls from all parties, and realized that the influence of this time was really greater than yesterday's news LB.

He himself released two atomic bombs in the mathematics community, which caused a sensation in the global mathematics community. He read a lot of comments, and various mathematicians hoped that he would hold a public speech and explain the two mathematical conjectures in more detail. Some people are a bit inferior , it is difficult to understand the published proof method.

Especially the BSD conjecture is more difficult to understand.

Mu Yang knew that the media reporters would not leave for a long time. He just knew that he was working in the company. He hoped that he could interview him after get off work. Even a sentence is enough, otherwise, many of them would not be able to communicate with the unit.

After thinking about it, he was willing to accept an interview and asked the HR department to arrange it.

The media reporters who got the response were very happy and gathered in the conference room to wait for Mu Yang to arrive.

After a while, when Mu Yang just walked into the meeting room, the reporters asked questions one after another, but fortunately, security guards blocked him.

"Everyone be quiet, I know the purpose of everyone's visit, but I will not answer your questions today, because there are still uncertainties about some things, I am very sorry to make everyone come here for nothing.

Let me just say a few words, the mathematical conjecture was indeed submitted by me, and there are still many scholars and seniors in the field of mathematics who want to know more detailed proof methods.

In the name of Xinghai Group, I decided to invite mathematicians and experts in the field of mathematics from all over the world to send invitation letters to Huaguo to participate in the mathematics symposium. I will give a more detailed explanation at the symposium. The specific location will be notified separately, and the time is set at nine o'clock in the morning on August 20.

Of course, for those who may not be able to be invited, or who are missing, they can also send invitations to Xinghai Group.

Friends from the media who are interested can come and help spread the news.

It will be dinner soon, and our company will arrange for you to have a buffet in a nearby hotel, for the time being. "

After Mu Yang finished speaking, he left. The media reporters were very helpless, but they also interviewed important news: Mu Yang was going to hold a global conference on mathematics.

What does free invite mean?

Is it a free round-trip ticket? Probably, with Xinghai Group's financial resources, it's not a problem at all. As a result, more mathematics experts are willing to come to China, otherwise, it will cost a lot of money to go back and forth.

These media reporters wrote reports one after another and announced it. In less than half an hour, the matter of Mu Yang's preparation for holding a mathematics lecture was announced on the Internet.

In less than half an hour, it immediately became hot news.

At 7:30 in the evening, the news clip of the news channel of China YANG TV station told the audience all over the country about the report of Mu Yang proving the mathematical conjecture.

This short message report of less than one minute, after all, is only published publicly at present, and it is estimated that it will be questioned.

Only after Mu Yang's mathematics theory conference is over and those mathematicians are conquered, then Yang TV will report in more detail.

Domestic audiences are eating melons again.

Mu Yang is on the news LB again!

And it's been two days in a row!

Who can be on the news LB continuously, except for the biggest leader.

For the general public, they don’t understand what a mathematical conjecture is. If you tell them that Fermat is determined, many people will definitely ask, “What kind of horse is Fermat? Does this horse run fast? Is this horse meat delicious? ?”

"You mean conjecture? What BSD thinks, I only know my own ideals, I don't understand!"

"Oh, I don't understand the mathematical conjecture, but I know that Mu Yang is on the news LB again, so it's just very good anyway."

Mu Yang is on the news LB again, and on the hot news again, and it is still in the screen swiping mode.

Even the entertainment news, and even the colorful websites have reports about Mu Yang.

Many celebrities who like to gossip about hot spots have announced that they like to watch mathematics, and they also showed their mathematics scores in elementary school, saying that when they were young, they often got 100 points in the test, but after entering junior high school, they were delayed by some things. If not, maybe Also a mathematician.

These kinds of comments are all for the purpose of attracting traffic, but they were strongly complained by netizens, saying that it depends on the time to gossip about hot spots, why not gossip about the hot news of big leaders and see if you want to live in a small black room.

All kinds of online media, netizens commented again.

"Muyang Niucha is amazing, entrepreneurs have become mathematicians!"

"Mathematicians who have been delayed by business, I think Xinghai Group should be managed by me. Boss Mu should study mathematics and make contributions to mankind."

"Not doing business properly!"

"Mu Yang was good at playing high-tech, a top student, but everyone paid more attention to his wealth, but suddenly he was going to prove some mathematical conjecture, which made us low-level people a little confused. Sure enough, rich people really know how to play. I don’t play with cars, boats, or airplanes and cannons, but I just go to play with mathematics.”

"I didn't graduate from junior high school, so I don't know what a mathematical conjecture is. It's easy for everyone to comment, but I don't think it's clear."

"Everyone, I also have a mathematical conjecture: two straight lines draw a triangle!"

"Bullshit conjecture, fallacy, how can two straight lines draw a triangle!"

"You don't understand this. If it is so easy to prove, then it is not a conjecture. So, you have to think about it, I think it should be possible."

...

night,

Mu Yang's parents knew that their son was on the news LB again, and Ma Lan asked him, "Son, have you donated money to the TV station? Why do you broadcast your news every day?"

These words made Song Xuelu and Mu Yang laugh out loud.

Mu Yang asked: "Mom, if I can buy YANG TV, I will also let you go to news LB."

Ma Lan said with a smile: "I won't go, I will be pointed at when I go out."

"Then I will be pointed at by others, you don't hate others."

"You have a thick skin, and you are not afraid of being criticized. Besides, there are too many people talking about it. Your mother can't talk about it." Ma Lan occasionally heard people commenting on his son. Her son has too much money and exploits the common people.

Ma Lan knows what her son's company does, and she is very clear about whether it is exploiting the common people. At first, she would go up and say a few words, but after listening too much, especially on the Internet, there are too many people. .

Now, no matter good or bad, she is happy. If someone said something bad, it must be because she was jealous of her son, otherwise she didn't want to say it.

Mu Yang invited experts and mathematicians in the field of mathematics from various countries to Huaguo to participate in the forum, which was taken seriously by the Z government of Jiangnan Province, and it was regarded as an investigation by foreign leaders.

The president of Jiangsu and Zhejiang University approached Academician Zhou Heng and asked Mu Yang if he could put the forum in Jiangsu and Zhejiang University and ask Jiangsu and Zhejiang University to help organize it.

After Mu Yang received a call from the teacher and explained the situation, he thought about it and decided to put the math conjecture forum in Jiangsu and Zhejiang University.

In fact, Mu Yang originally planned to put it in the hotel lobby, but it was no better than a university, which has an academic atmosphere, and now that Jiangsu and Zhejiang University are willing to undertake it, he couldn't be better.

From the night of August 10th to August 11th, the public relations department sent invitations to mathematics experts in the field of mathematics from all over the world. Mu Yang also sent invitations to "Mathematics Monthly" and "Pretty Chinese Mathematical Society", hoping that the two magazines would help mathematics The bigwigs in the world deliver the news.

Mathematics masters mainly work in the mathematics departments of universities in various countries, and it is still easy to find relevant figures, but some mathematicians are older and have left school.

The invitation to the mathematics forum issued by Xinghai Group was also broadcast by overseas media, and an interview letter was also sent to Xinghai Group, hoping to conduct an on-site interview.

If it is a general mathematical conjecture forum, it may not be a big deal. At most, it will be a sensation in the field of mathematics for a period of time, and relevant people will be written in textbooks.

However, Mu Yang is not only the proof of the mathematical conjecture, releasing two nuclear bombs at once, but also the chairman of a large enterprise Xinghai Group, one of the youngest rich men in the world, very news topic.

One update, try to write more codes this month. Last month, 190,000 words were updated, which is 10,000 short of the target value.
