Chapter 277 Transcendence



"You're the most boring Belgian!" Andrew shrugged, not angry at all. After working together for so many years, they knew each other's personalities very well. "You continue to watch in silence!"

"Thanks for your understanding, Andrew!" Deligne wasn't the least bit embarrassed by the dull words, just as he could never understand Andrew's endless enthusiasm. Mutual respect is the best way to get along.

Andrew walked forward and saw a rather expressionless face. Oh, this was not what he wanted to see. Faltings, when will you be happier? Serious Faltings!

"You're here too, Faltings!" Andrew felt that he was a polite man, and even if he was intimidated by Faltings, he still had to be polite. "Hello, Schultz!" The young man next to him looked even more adorable.

"Good afternoon, Mr. Wiles!" Schultz was a younger generation and greeted him very politely and formally. He did not have the confidence of Faltings to ignore the prover of Fermat's Last Theorem.

"China is such a magical place, isn't it? We have come thousands of miles together to meet again here!" Even facing Faltings' serious face, Andrew could still chant it.

Faltings rolled his eyes at someone he considered to have some mental issues: Noisy Andrew! "I'm here to be the judge!" Since he had been invited to serve as a reviewer, he would fulfill his responsibilities to the end and be responsible for the mathematics!

September 30th, nine o'clock.

The conference hall with 10,000 people was already full, without a single empty seat. Regardless of the academic level of the people sitting there, they had at least studied or researched mathematics and had a certain understanding of mathematics.

The invited official media have also arrived and taken their seats.

At this moment, whether it is the internationally renowned leaders in the front row or the elementary school math students in the back row, they are all excited and staring at the countdown on the screen as it reaches zero and the hour approaches.

There was no need for anyone to adjust discipline at all. When the time arrived at the hotel, the conference hall with 10,000 people was as if the pause button had been pressed. It became quiet in an instant, and no more sounds of various trivial discussions could be heard.

The famous host of the national TV station came on stage and gave a simple yet meaningful speech, then introduced Wu Tong to the stage.

Under the real attention of the public, Wu Tong stepped steadily onto the stage. On the big screen behind him, the corresponding title of this academic conference appeared.

【Proof of the existence and smoothness of solutions to the three-dimensional incompressible NS equations】

"Thank you all for traveling thousands of miles, across mountains and seas, to be here again. It's great to see you again and listen to my presentation!" Wu Tong took a deep breath and spoke slowly. Before she went on stage, Dean Pan and Teacher Zhou, who were sitting backstage with her, asked her, "Are you ready?" She replied firmly and calmly, "Yes!"

Yet, at this moment, standing in the center of this vast platform for the second time, Wu Tong felt the same surge of pride and excitement at being there. The Chinese people hold this place in the highest regard. Growing up in this environment, this place has always held a special and irreplaceable meaning for Wu Tong. She left her mark here, and it only made it more glorious!

"For a long time, we have been pursuing an equation of motion that describes the conservation of momentum in viscous incompressible fluids. We long for a clear conclusion to explain why high-speed cars don't disintegrate or why calm lakes don't explode... The truth behind these seemingly common sense and taken-for-granted things...

Today, I think I can give it a satisfactory answer! "After a brief opening, Wu Tong immediately began explaining the contents of the paper. The entire content of today's meeting revolved around the NS equation. There was no time limit or question limit. This was a special report meeting on the NS equation.

Lines of mathematically beautiful formulas unfolded on the big screen, attracting the attention of everyone present.

[The vector form is = -?p + ρF + μΔv---------?p + ρF + μΔv, and the NS equation is simplified to the Euler equation in ideal flow (= -?p + ρF)]

【···········】

Wu Tong maintained a steady tone and explained word by word. As she explained, the content on the big screen also switched one by one.

During the initial explanation, most people in the conference hall could understand it. However, as the content became more in-depth, especially when it came to the climax and Wu Tong began to use topology to introduce partial differential equations and involved infinite topological manifolds, seven or eight out of ten thousand people in the room were already confused.

"Sure enough, mathematics is an extremely small circle. Mortals like us come here just to verify that we are fools listening to incomprehensible things!" Many participants in the back row who claim to be mathematics enthusiasts and even think that their mathematics level is very good and they have won some modeling competition awards when they were in school, couldn't help but sigh in a low voice.

"It's difficult, it's really too difficult. It's not that my god doesn't explain it well, but that we think too highly of ourselves!"

“I guess only the big guys in the front row can understand what my god is saying!”

Indeed, the front row was filled with internationally renowned scholars. Before arriving, they had all studied Wu Tong's preprint papers. Now, listening to Wu Tong's presentation, unclear points suddenly became clear to them. This time, the "Four Talents of the Millennium"—many renowned graduates of Kyoto University—had returned to China, each furiously writing down their insights and notes.

Wu Tong had explained it very carefully, but their level was limited, especially for those not familiar with these areas, so it was a bit difficult to understand! Everyone knew Wu Tong was good at number theory, but the interview with the NS equations revealed that she had only just scratched the surface of her potential. She possessed exceptional academic proficiency in differential equations, topology, and more. The proof of the NS equations was the perfect endorsement!

This person is not the top genius in number theory as they traditionally believe, but he is so talented in all fields of mathematics that people admire him!

Once, they were admired by so many. Now, they looked with the same eyes at the person on the stage, the one who made them drool over her and called her "junior sister" for being the first to arrive. She had no overseas study experience, but her performance was excellent, making those of them who boasted of their advanced knowledge feel ashamed.

Perhaps they should consider how to better serve the increasingly powerful country.

They went abroad to learn better knowledge and make greater progress, but as China rose to prominence, their so-called study abroad became a joke! They did learn something, but compared to the people on the stage, they were far behind!
