Chapter 59 Proof
My future junior, please show some mercy and save your life!
There were still some finishing lessons to do, so Mu Xuewu did not delay and continued his fast-paced lecture, looking in Wu Tong's direction with a smile from time to time. This made the students in Wu Tong's direction sit up straight, letting Old Mu see their seriousness and not to act rashly.
Old Mu's smile is creepy.
In fact, this is not the case. Professor Mu Xuewu is thinking in his mind that the School of Mathematics has had a lot of talents in the past two years. Seeing that Jin Qiu is another genius entering the school, he has to go back and discuss with someone how to bring back a genius to be the pillar of the school.
It also allows the Institute of Physics to return to the era of Lu Shen.
To be honest, he really missed Lu Xiao's glorious days at Peking University. With his own strength, he dominated the two colleges of Physics and Mathematics, and was as blazing as the sun in the sky. No one in the world could compete with him!
Although their half-lifetime achievements were quickly surpassed by that kid in just a few years, it made them, the teachers, feel quite frustrated.
However, the achievement of teaching a genius is worth measuring with their lifetime.
It was this guy who really pissed him off. Why didn't he just study high-energy physics? He started by playing around with computer artificial intelligence and then turned around to work on military power. He also reportedly started playing around with aerospace...
Now the boy's confidentiality level is higher than his, and he is not very clear where the boy is currently staying and what he is doing.
When the class was over, Wu Tong nodded to Professor Mu and quietly left the classroom to avoid being watched by others. She didn't want to be a gorilla yet.
Following the direction of the School of Mathematics, Wu Tong quietly entered the classroom where the training team was giving a lecture from the back door. Li Yisheng, who was giving a lecture on the stage, glanced at Wu Tong. Wasn't this kid attending classes at the School of Physics recently? How did he have time to run back to the classroom today and get caught?
He knew that Wu Tong had asked him for the class schedule and that she was going to attend classes for free, and he supported her. Given the child's level, it would be a real waste to force her to continue studying high school knowledge.
But how come this kid was studying mathematics so hard that he ended up in the physics department? The people in the physics department couldn’t learn mathematics, so they studied physics. Mathematics is the king of all subjects!
Such a gifted child cannot be abducted by those shameless people in the Physics Department!
They are still heartbroken to this day. A promising future mathematician fell into the hands of the Physics Department, and the School of Computer Science took advantage of him. He did not get to shine in mathematics. It hurts just thinking about it!
With the lessons learned from the past, all the teachers in the School of Mathematics now keep a close eye on their own children. In the past two years, the School of Mathematics has been short of talent, while the School of Physics has been in a period of transition, and they are almost jealous.
Li Yisheng is learning some basic number theory, which will be useful in the Olympiad.
"···When Riemann studied the zeta function···he discovered the profound connection between the analytic properties of complex variable functions and the distribution of prime numbers, and thus led number theory into the field of analysis···" Li Yisheng taught him some basic number theory, which will be useful in the Olympiad.
Complex analysis? Euler constant, Diophantine approximation?
A storm of various mathematical formulas swept through Wu Tong's mind. She seemed to be in the classroom, but also seemed to be out of the classroom, looking down on everything from a strange and detached angle.
Infinite prime numbers extended infinitely in her mind. The interlaced numbers and symbols described the language of cosmic truth. Lines of expressions appeared in her mind like heavenly music.
Wu Tong's hand was writing on the flat draft paper. ···Dangdang2^(2^n)
When p < 2^(2^(n+1)), Mp has 2^(n+1)-1 prime numbers. When p<2^(2^(n+1)), Mp has 2^(n+2)- n - 2 prime numbers.
She walked alone on the twin prime conjecture, but before she reached the other side, she unexpectedly got the inspiration to prove Zhou's conjecture.
In 1992, Chinese mathematician and linguist Zhou Haizhong published an article entitled "The Distribution Law of Mersenne Primes", in which he proposed a conjecture using precise expressions. Anyone who studies Mersenne primes in the world has tried to attack Zhou's conjecture.
To this day, nearly twenty years later, Zhou's conjecture remains Zhou's conjecture and has not been proven to become Zhou's theorem.
However, it was in such an ordinary class and the gentle breeze that touched Wu Tong's inspiration. Wu Tong suddenly realized how to solve the problem.
Wu Tong forgot about lunch, forgot about time, and forgot that she was still in class... She completely forgot about everything. The most precious language in the world, in her hands, evolved into lines of formulas, leading to the end of proving Zhou's conjecture.
Li Yisheng noticed Wu Tong's condition at the end of the lecture. He initially thought that Wu Tong was solving some problems, but when his class ended, Wu Tong continued writing without any other movements and did not even notice the bell. He felt something was not right.
After the get out of class, Li Yishen did not leave immediately. Instead, he stayed to help the students in the class and solved a few problems. Wu Tong was still immersed in the calculations.
There were curious students who looked back and wanted to watch. Wu Tong only appeared at the opening ceremony and exams. He rarely appeared in the classroom. It was said that he was listening to university courses. The training team members present were all curious about Wu Tong, the first CMO with a perfect score! Li Yisheng waved his hand, indicating that the students who were leaving class should go to eat and not disturb Wu Tong.
He walked lightly to Wu Tong's side, wanting to see what kind of question could make Wu Tong so engaged, or was she just confused for once?
But when he saw the draft paper that Wu Tong had casually placed on the corner of the table, his eyebrows couldn't help but raise.
Is this, prime number... Zhou's conjecture?
Wu Tong is trying to prove Zhou's conjecture?
Haha...a newborn calf is not afraid of a tiger and really dares to charge forward!
Even though this conjecture is not as difficult as the NF equation, the Riemann hypothesis, the seven millennium conjectures, or the Goldbach conjecture, it is still one of the unsolved mysteries in the world. Scholars who can be called mathematicians have come one after another to conquer this mountain, but as of this moment, they have still not been able to reach the top to enjoy the scenery.
Li Yishen did not deny Wu Tong's attempt to prove Zhou's conjecture. Who among those who study mathematics does not have the ambition to climb the Mount Everest of conjecture?
Wu Tong has been deeply studying number theory at this stage, so it is normal for him to come across this conjecture. The fact that he was able to work on this conjecture also indirectly proves that Wu Tong's mathematical knowledge reserve, at least in the area of number theory, is no less than that of a doctoral student in mathematics.
Without a certain level of knowledge, it would be difficult to even understand the questions, let alone make inferences and calculations.
He could imagine that Wu Tong would make great progress with a good platform and the support of Peking University's resources, but Wu Tong's speed of progress still exceeded his expectations.
With Wu Tong's learning speed, he was not surprised at all. Wu Tong signed the contract and asked about skipping grades. Such a child should not be restricted by ordinary rules.
