Chapter 209 Relationship
"Look, what a wonderful little sun, her light illuminates the world, even better than when I proved Fermat's Last Theorem!" Andrew whispered happily to Deligne to share his good mood. His first report meeting that year ended in failure.
Of course, this did not affect his confidence and persistence in continuing his pursuit, and he still successfully proved Fermat's Last Theorem.
Deligne glanced at some people, "No one can compare to you!" After all, this person has set many records in the report meeting! Is it fun to tease them? Not everyone is as bad as him.
"Hehe... Life has to have some fun. I'm still having fun holding lectures, but Perelman didn't even hold a lecture. Isn't this even more willful?"
"The youngest winner of the Philippine Medal has been born! Wu Jiang is unprecedented in this age group!" As Wu Tong's narration came to an end, this was the thought that flashed through the minds of all the participants.
Currently, the youngest Fields Medal winner in the world is Jean-Pierre Searle, who won the Fields Medal in 1953 when he was less than 28 years old. He set the record as the youngest winner of the award, and no one has broken it so far.
Wu Tong is not yet 18 years old, and she will be only 21 when the next Fields Medal is awarded. This is to make way for those who are more in need. Even if it is delayed for one session, Wu Tong will only be 25 years old and will still be the youngest Fields Medal winner.
However, who can make Wu Tong give way? Who can deny that, with the speed at which Wu Tong creates results, she will not be able to produce more shocking results before the next International Congress of Mathematicians?
Under such circumstances, if the Fields Medal is not awarded to Wu Tong, it will be a serious blow to the authority of the Fields Medal, not a loss for Wu Tong. The Fields Medal has never been awarded to anyone who is close to reaching a certain age, but is awarded to young people who have made great contributions to mathematics.
It is very likely that Wu Tong will reduce the minimum age for Fields Medal to seven years, which will become an insurmountable gap! At the age of 21, when others may not even have graduated from college, she has already won the Fields Medal.
In other words, she is just about to become an adult, and at an age when others are preparing to go to college, she has already set her sights on booking the Fields Medal. How shocking!
"By introducing the theorem, we can see that any even number greater than 2 can be written as the sum of two prime numbers. I am sure that I have given a perfect answer!" In the one and a half hour report, Wu Tong spent half of the time presenting the method she created. Once the method came out, the result was just a natural thing.
As soon as this new method came out, the top scholars in the front row all understood that proving the Goldbach conjecture was just a process. Perhaps proving the conjecture was shocking, but for scholars who really understood it, the emergence of the new method was the real essence.
New methods mean new progress in mathematics. People who truly love mathematics are always happy about it.
There was no particular time limit. Wu Tong's report was detailed, clear and concise, with nothing to fault with. The experts in the front row all had no objections, and those in the back row with a stronger foundation also understood a lot.
There is nothing you can do for those who really don't understand. Even if Wu Tong breaks it down and explains it again, without a certain foundation, you still won't understand.
Among them, only 1% can really play it and understand it.
There are only so many top scientists in the world. Mathematics has always been a game for geniuses, and the top circle is even more niche. They just come to join in the fun for the Goldbach conjecture. They don’t care if they don’t understand it, because they have already expected it.
It's not that the speaker was bad, but that they didn't have the basics. Didn't the big guys in the front row have any opinions? They just wanted to witness the proof of the Goldbach conjecture in person, so that they can talk about it in their resumes and feel proud of it.
When Wu Tong finished speaking, the whole audience burst into thunderous applause again, which lasted for a long time. Under the tacit leadership of the top experts in the front row, the whole audience stood up to thank Wu Tong for his new contribution to mathematics, and thank Wu Tong for giving Ge Guess a perfect ending. He also removed a huge mountain for the mathematics community.
Wu Jingzhong and Jin Yu clapped their hands vigorously, their excitement and excitement almost went to their heads. The girl who performed so well on the stage was their daughter, their Tongtong, their Tongtong, the best. Look, the whole audience was paying tribute to him.
Their Tongtong is a mathematician, a great mathematician!
Wu Jingzhong felt that he could only smile foolishly at this moment, and Jin Yu himself was not much better. However, he still had a trace of rationality, and poked his lover who was laughing so hard that his mouth could reach his ears. Be reserved, be reserved, stand up for Tongtong, don't let people laugh at you!
Wu Tong stood on the stage and bowed to the people below. She had a faint smile on her face. This academic conference had come to the end of the 99th step, and there was only one step left before it could be truly passed by the whole audience.
When the applause gradually died down, Wu Tong raised her hand and lightly pressed the button. The people on the scene took their seats. She asked the last question of the process: "Does anyone have any questions?"
However, for a long time, no one in the audience raised their hand. None of the big guys in the front row moved, and naturally no one in the back had the nerve to expose their ignorance.
The most important outcome of the entire conference is still the big guys in the front row. The small shrimps are only here to witness history and truly learn.
"Does everyone have any questions about my report?" After waiting for a while, Wu Tong was a little surprised and spoke again. Generally speaking, in such an academic conference, especially the Goldbach conjecture, there should be many people who find faults and questions. Although she was confident that she was well prepared, she did not expect that no one would find faults.
"Wu, you should have confidence in your own rigor and thoroughness." A tall old man in the front row stood up. "Hello, Wu Tong, I am Langlands R. Rather than looking for a perfect answer to a problem that is impossible to find, I would like to ask you for your sieve circle method. Can you find a point of entry that can be combined with the Langlands Program... especially the Hibbert module form!"
"Mr. Langlands, nice to meet you. ... When two prime numbers are divided, is the remainder a perfect square? The quadratic reciprocity law reveals the wonderful relationship between prime numbers p and q. Is the remainder of p divided by q a perfect square? ... and "Is the remainder of q divided by p a perfect square? Gauss once proved..."
In response to Langlands' question, Wu Tong pondered for a moment and then gave a perfect explanation, cleverly bridging her infinite sieve method with the Langlands program, which is regarded as the grand unification of mathematics, and linking number theory, algebraic geometry and reduced group representation theory. Their relationship is deep and close.
As Wu Tong answered, the light in Langlands' eyes became brighter and brighter, and those in the front row who could understand him couldn't help but follow his lead and were amazed.
