Chapter 211 Discussion

At the celebration banquet, there were clinking glasses, lively conversation, elegant music, graceful scholars with different temperaments, a wide range of delicious food, and attentive waiters. As the organizers, the Beijing Office and Shanghai University put in a lot of effort. The whole banquet venue was filled with a strong atmosphere and the joy of both guests and hosts was everywhere.

Wu Tong was the absolute center, hosting waves of important scholars who came to congratulate him.

The smile had to remain on the corners of her mouth, upturned. Wu Tong felt that even with her physique, her face would become stiff. It was not easy to be the protagonist of the celebration banquet.

Wu Tong used the teacher's figure to quietly rub her stiff cheeks, which made several teachers who saw her actions laugh. The good things that others could not even ask for, were actually a burden and a rarity for Wu Tong!

Seeing that all the important people have already been greeted, even some big shots who are impatient with socializing have already said goodbye and left, the family feels sorry for their own children.

Pan Wenhua couldn't help but say, "Wu Tong, it's getting late. You've been busy all day. Go back and rest early. Your parents are probably waiting for you to celebrate at home!"

In order to prevent the news from leaking out and causing people to notice something wrong, Wu Tong's parents made the arrangements through their superiors at Beijing University, and Pan Wenhua was one of the persons in charge.

"The ones left here are basically companies and scholars who are interested in cooperation. You can go back without worry. It won't be rude!" Zhou Wenping confirmed and added that commercial cooperation is a win-win situation for the government and enterprises, but there is no need to drag Wu Tong here. Wu Tong has already given her face by staying until now and accepting her statement to build the platform for this celebration banquet.

Besides, there are the teachers and people from the Beijing University office to support us.

"Okay, thank you Dean Pan and Teacher Zhou, I'll leave first!" Wu Tong really wanted to go back early to share the joy with his parents. After confirming that everything was fine, he naturally followed suit. Under the escort of An Wenshu, he quietly left the banquet, got into the car driven by Cai Yi, and went home with his family.

After a good night's rest, he got up early for morning exercises and sent his parents off to work. They had asked for leave yesterday, so they couldn't waste any more time today. Although they were all engaged in low-level jobs with limited income, according to Wu Tong's current financial situation, it was enough to support them even if they didn't go to work.

However, for Wu Jingzhong and Jin Yu, they never thought of sitting back and reaping the benefits, but just wanted to enjoy the convenience brought by their daughter.

They have hands and feet, and are still young and strong. They work diligently and fulfill their responsibilities. They no longer need to worry too much about their children. Pursuing their own careers is also another positive attitude towards life. They cannot give up now and let their daughters support them. Their purpose is not to cause trouble for their daughters.

People always have to have some pursuits and things to do, otherwise they will be useless at a young age!

Wu Tong reserved a leisurely morning for herself, enjoying the spring sunshine and relaxing. It would be impossible to say that she was not a little nervous in the past few days.

Faced with the academic conference on the Goldbach conjecture held by the world, which was held in the Great Hall of the People and rose to the national level, although Wu Tong was very confident, she still wanted to strive for excellence, so she was naturally cautious and kept up the spirit.

Until yesterday, the report meeting was successfully held and ended successfully beyond her expectations. Wu Tong was relieved and relaxed. In the half-day leisure time, Wu Tong followed the teacher's advice and took a real rest, leaning on the lounge chair on the balcony, enjoying the warm spring sun, and the rare leisure time, and she was in a very good mood.

With a happy mood, Wu Tong went out and rushed to the afternoon seminar. After greeting a group of familiar seniors one after another, everyone sat in the reserved meeting room. The participants were all top mathematicians in the country, many of whom were winners of the Fields Medal, and many of whom were winners of various other important awards such as Abel and Wolf.

Andrew Wiles and the older Langlands were the organizers of this seminar. They spoke first, gave a brief opening and pointed out the main theme of this seminar, which was to achieve new progress in mathematics.

"When in Rome, do as the Romans do. There is a Chinese saying, 'throwing a brick to attract jade'. Let me start with that. When studying Wu's achievements, I made a special discovery. Wu attached great importance to building bridges. She always cleverly built bridges to produce results that amazed us again and again. She used the bridges she created to connect unconnected areas, giving us new help on the road to the true unification of mathematics!"

"To connect everything with a bridge, I have made a preliminary application in the Langlands Program. Before I proposed this program, my predecessors had actually done preliminary research. The results and methods of semi-simple Lie groups, the Selberg trace formula of Selberg and others, I proposed the direct connection between the above theory and number theory based on the functor property, as well as the rich overall structure in its conception..."

Langlands went on to explain that he has devoted his entire life to the Langlands Program and hopes to witness the birth of the grand unification of mathematics.

Immediately afterwards, Deligne, Feynman, and even Edward Witten spoke one after another. At the main seat, two great academic leaders cast expectant glances at Wu Tong.

Wu Tong was not vague. He nodded slightly to greet everyone and continued the discussion: "Whatever can be done for a half-simple (or reduced) Lie group, should be done for all.

Thus, once we recognize the role of some low-dimensional Lie groups—such as GL2—in the theory of modular forms, and conversely the role of GL1 in the theory of class fields, we can at least speculate on the general situation of GLn.

The idea of ​​the cusp form comes from the cusps on the modular curve, which in spectral theory corresponds to the discrete spectrum; in contrast, the continuous spectrum comes from the Eisenstein series. But as the given Lie group becomes larger, the more parabolic subgroups there are, and the more complicated the technology becomes.

There are various techniques in this line of research—often based on facts such as Levy decomposition, which have properties that induce representations—but the field has always been difficult.

In terms of modular forms, there are also aspects such as Hilbert modular forms, Siegel modular forms and theta-series..."

"Once we find a suitable generalization of the Dirichlet L-function, it will be possible to generalize the Artin reciprocity law, the holomorphic functions and the Dirichlet L-function on the upper half-complex plane that satisfy certain functional equations. This can be applied to a certain type of infinite-dimensional irreducible representation of the general linear group GLn on the Q-Adair ring..."

"Every Artin L-function from the finite-dimensional representation of the Galois group of a given number field is equivalent to some L-function from the self-morphic cusp representation!"

The lively discussions, with sparks of thought colliding between the two, made the participants feel deeply rewarded. Wu Tong's keenness and vast knowledge reserves once again impressed everyone.
