She proved this problem simply because she had an idea, and it just came to her mind. She didn't do it just for the sake of proving it. After the proof was completed, everything after that was just additional information.
"Ambition!" Li Yishen gave a thumbs up in praise, saying that young children should have such confidence and vigor.
Compared to Wu Tong's carefree attitude, he is obsessed with appearances.
Li Yisheng swiftly took the remaining deduction process from Wu Tong, pulled up a chair, and sat down to continue verifying it on the spot. His students trusted him, so how could he not live up to their trust?
Working together to share the good story is also his medal.
From the previous verification, he could already sense the ingenuity of Wu Tong's proof, which was characterized by Wu Tong's usual rigorous, orderly, and logical style. For those who love mathematics, reading Wu Tong's proof is a real pleasure.
The argumentation process is extremely complicated, but Li Yishen is no pushover. His level of knowledge can be considered outstanding among his age. He may not be able to prove the conjecture, but he can still verify the results based on the deduction process.
As he verified page after page, he became more and more shocked. Even when the proof appeared before him, he still couldn't find any calculation or logical errors.
The argumentation process is almost perfect.
In other words, there is a great possibility that Wu Tong has really solved Zhou's conjecture, a difficult world problem.
This difficult problem that has troubled the mathematics community for nearly twenty years is finally going to be solved by a sixteen-year-old girl!
His God... Li Yishen was shocked and speechless for a long time. He just felt that at his age, he really lived like a dog.
Genius is really the most unreasonable existence. He knew it a long time ago, but still couldn't help but tremble with shock!
"I haven't found any problems yet. Congratulations, Wu Tong. You have a good chance of proving Zhou's conjecture. Will you write a paper?"
"Roughly!" Although she had never written one, she knew the general format after reading so many papers.
"Then organize these deductions into a paper. You go ahead and do it!" As long as the deductions are sound, minor formatting flaws won't matter; he'll help with revisions later. Proof always matters: the subtle deductions, not the elaborate formatting. Without substance, even the most elaborate formatting is a waste of time.
"After we finish compiling and translating it into a full English version, we will submit it for publication. This is a major achievement and can be submitted to an SCI Zone 1 mathematics journal!"
He has accumulated only a few papers in the first section of SCI over the years, and they can be counted on one hand.
Especially for top journals, the number of papers that Kyoto University can publish in a year is not that many!
"A core mathematics journal with a global impact factor ranked in the top 5% is worthy of your achievements. Only a core journal in this region can be worthy of it!"
There are four top journals in the mathematics community: Annals of Mathematics, Inventiones Mathematicae, Acta Mathematica, and Journal of the American Mathematical Society!
And he is very likely to witness the birth of an SCI first-zone paper, and this achievement is enough to shock the entire mathematics community and the world.
"The review process for these top journals is usually quite long. We'll get the submission done, and you can prepare. I'll organize a math discussion for you, get the dean and some of the department's top experts to participate, and then ask them to use their connections to speed up the review process!"
We publish in the Annals of Mathematics, a journal with a huge influence. Furthermore, the Annals of Mathematics is currently published in Princeton, a university ranked number one in the world in terms of mathematics department. There are many world-renowned mathematicians in the university, and the university has established diplomatic ties with Princeton, which makes it easy for the experts to find people!
If you have connections, don't use them, they will be invalid after the expiration date! Wu Tong is their child from Jingda University, they should take care of their own children!
Such an important result cannot be rejected without even being reviewed by those short-sighted reviewers just because of the child’s age or other reasons. Having the big names in the department verify it again can also provide a double insurance.
After all, he is minoring in number theory, which is not his main research subject. It is not ruled out that he was led astray by Wu Tong's logical thinking. With more verification and confirmation from a few big guys, he can also help Wu Tong and the department to win some rewards.
Wu Tong really proved Zhou's conjecture, which is a world-class achievement and an SCI core journal. It is a great honor for Peking University!
Wu Tong has achieved such results at such a young age, and has made great achievements that people in his forties cannot achieve. With such talent, she will definitely not stop here in the future. It is obvious that she will become a leading figure in the school.
It is too late to provide timely assistance. If the school does not add icing on the cake at this time, how can it retain a future top scholar!
Submitting the paper and then using it as evidence was also to protect the child's interests from any form of infringement. Even though the professors at Kyoto University were generally quite upright, it was still better to prevent unnecessary trouble in advance.
As for whether Wu Tong's result will be published in the Annals of Mathematics, there's absolutely no doubt about it. Zhou's conjecture is no small problem; it's a world-class puzzle, arguably the most impressive achievement in number theory in recent years. It's a prime number problem favored by many leading mathematicians. If confirmed, top journals will be eager to see Wu Tong published!
"You don't have a computer, right? Take this laptop, teacher!" In the information age, handwritten papers are a thing of the past. Li Yisheng simply handed Wu Tong the laptop he used for class. He only used it for class, and the information in it was stored on his office computer, so it didn't affect his other work.
"Okay, thank you Teacher Li, I will sort it out in the next few days!" Wu Tong thanked Li Yishen for his concern. Teacher Li really took into account everything she could think of and even couldn't think of.
Her English is okay. Most mathematical papers are based on deductive formulas, and the translation does not require too many professional terms. It is not too difficult and she can handle it.
"Why are you being so polite to me? I'm witnessing the birth of a future top scholar. In other words, you can be considered an accomplished mathematician right now. After your paper is published, you'll become an internationally renowned scholar. If I can teach a student like you, I'll be so proud of myself that I'll be able to shine brightly!"
"Who knows, the teacher might even need you to be his backer in the future!"
Li Yisheng's proud voice made Wu Tong laugh.
"Thanks for the teacher's good words!"
"Of course, Wu Tong, I have always believed that a child like you will definitely achieve something. As long as you keep moving forward courageously, no matter whether Zhou's conjecture is really proven or not, with your talent, your future will make the teachers look up to you!" Li Yishen said seriously. If Zhou's conjecture is really verified and proved, it will undoubtedly be an achievement that he can rest on his laurels for the rest of his life.
But Wu Tong is still so young, he hopes that Wu Tong can remain clear-headed in the prosperity, make full use of her talents, and never hurt Zhongyong.
"Teacher, don't worry, I know this is just a small gain, I look forward to going further!" Wu Tong nodded vigorously, she understood what Teacher Li meant.
