Chapter 274 Coronation



The undulating waves follow our boat as it meanders across a lake, and the turbulent air currents follow our modern jet planes as they fly. Mathematicians and physicists are convinced that both breezes and turbulent currents can be explained and predicted by understanding the solutions to the Navier-Stokes equations.

Although these equations were written down in the 19th century, our understanding of them remains remarkably poor. The challenge lies in making substantial advances in the mathematical theory that will allow us to unlock the mysteries hidden in the Navier-Stokes equations.

Thanks to Wu Tong, I was able to see the NS equations in my lifetime, challenge the results, and finally prove them. Thanks to mathematics, the solutions to the NS equations exist and are smooth!

Shortly after Tao gave his speech, Feynman, another former child prodigy at Princeton who now teaches and has an equally dazzling resume, directly quoted the Clay Institute's Seven Millennium Problems Declaration to express his thoughts.

On May 24, 2000, at the Millennium Mathematics Conference at the Collège de France in Paris, the Clay Institute announced seven Millennium Problems, including the NS equation problem. He was the speaker for the section on the NS equation!

He published his first scientific paper in German at the age of 15, graduated with a bachelor's degree in physics and mathematics from the University of Maryland at the age of 17, and received a doctorate in mathematics from Princeton University at the age of 20. At the age of 22, he was appointed a professor at the University of Chicago, becoming the youngest person to be appointed a professor at an American university.

In 1974, at the age of 24, he moved to Princeton University as a professor.

There were probably few people in Feynman's life who could be praised so highly. The last young person whom he was so optimistic about was Terence Tao, who was hailed as a child prodigy after him. He graduated with a Ph.D. from Princeton at the age of 21 and won the Fields Medal at the age of 31.

Immediately afterwards, Andrew Wiles, Deligne and Faltings all spoke and expressed their own feelings in different places.

I earnestly hope that the next International Congress of Mathematicians will bring the Fields Medal to Wu Tong, which is urgently needed. This will make the Fields Medal we once received even more glorious, rather than a hot potato!

Wu Tong, who proved the Goldbach conjecture and the NS equation, has not yet won the Fields Medal. These predecessors, whose resumes are not as good as Wu Tong's, all feel that the medal is hot and they feel embarrassed.

They sympathize more with those geniuses of the same era as Wu Tong. Because of Wu Tong, no one can see their glory!

Yet, they were also grateful to live in this era and witness the coronation of such a great Mathematician! Terms like "pearl" and "princess" were too superficial to describe Wu Tong's brilliance, just as Grothendieck was known as the Emperor of Mathematics. They were witnessing the coronation of such a Majesty!

It is their endless honor!

They are fortunate that they have welcomed such a talented mathematician at the beginning of this century. Mathematics in the 21st century will have a new leader, and their mathematics will no longer be confused, but will become younger!

As international big names spoke, domestic media also began to repost them. Official media were the first to report on the speeches, directly using large amounts of space in the news and almost praising them, prompting other domestic self-media to respond to the speeches and follow their positive style.

Although the title was as shocking as ever, it was the hot news that dominated the forums and topped the list immediately.

【She amazed the world! 】

[She gave the world seven major millennial problems, an answer! ]

···········

However, in some well-known mathematics forums and Wu Tong fan forums, the joy was as great as if it were New Year's Day.

[My God is awesome, my God is awesome... I only regret not having enough knowledge when I need it, because I have no talent to use to brag about my God!]

"Awesome!" I say, "I believe in my god, and I'm a god!" The NS equation, one of the world's seven millennium-long problems. Someone said before that my god would tackle the millennium-long problems. Hehe... Now I'm telling you, I've traveled from the future, and my god has proven the NS equation!

[Once again, it's proven that gods are gods, and my god is truly a god. I'm in the same class as my god, and foolishly, I'm still weeping over advanced mathematics. My god has already solved the world's ultimate problem, the NS equation. Same blue sky, different brain. I look up to my god once again, and pray that he will bless me to fly low over advanced mathematics this year!]

[The above poster's request is really sad. I am different. I just want to pass! ]

[Why are there no comments from domestic bigwigs? It’s always the international bigwigs who are the most powerful! ]

[The top experts in China are probably planning a seminar for my god! I'm from Peking University, and my professor mentioned that a few days ago, the top experts from the fields of partial differential equations, topology, differential geometry... gathered at the Peking University Mathematical Research Center for a group discussion and study...]

[All those major awards both domestically and internationally this year, hehehe... I want to see the Wushen Tu version sweep all the major awards again! ]

[I send my heart to my God, congratulating him for creating a miracle. I hope he will be honored for this achievement!]

[Is the original poster referring to the National Natural Science Awards? Giving my god a first prize isn't too much to ask, is it?] This is from many knowledgeable people who pay attention to national awards!

[I want to know when God will hold an academic conference on the NS equations. This time, I'm going to attend at my own expense and do whatever it takes!] Back then, many laypeople didn't even have time to react before the reservations were filled. This time, many people are eager to grab a spot!

After all, the prestige of participating in such a world-leading academic conference is not something that can be compared to or boasted about at so-called celebrity concerts or meet-and-greets!

When will the academic conference be held? This is the question that many international scholars have been sending letters to Peking University officials. Various invitations have once again snowflakeed into the mailboxes of Peking University and Wu Tong, leaving Wu Tong in a state of stagnation, his external mobile phone turned off and would not start again.

In particular, the four top journals sent more invitations to contribute to his research than anyone else, but Wu Tong politely declined each one. The four journals were trying to figure out which journal Wu Tong had submitted his seminal work on the NS equations to.

The achievements of the Seven Millennium Problems are beyond the reach of ordinary papers that require various reviews before publication. In addition, the innovative mathematical method that is hailed as the creation of a new discipline, the infinite expansion of manifolds...

Whoever can win these two papers will undoubtedly be important enough to be published in a special issue, and they can have a significant impact compared to other journals. How could they give up easily and let their opponents surpass them?
