Chapter 95 å å, Okami
April 30, the last working day and study day before the May Day holiday.
“Shen Qi, you have participated in the Golden Autumn Camp of Yanda University. You are not unfamiliar with Yanda University. Let’s play by yourself. I will go to Shijingshan to meet with my best friends and old classmates. If there is something to do, please contact me.” After Mu Rong gave orders, she ran away alone. .
“Business trip at public expense, private blind wave…you, you, then go and wave.” Looking at the back of Teacher Mu, Shen Qi was relieved.
In just a few days, Mu Rong couldn’t teach Shen Qi too much.
Coming to Yan University again, Shen Qi is indeed no stranger. He wandered around on the campus of Yan University by himself, and immediately called Professor Sun Erxiong of the Department of Mathematics. It’s not sensible if Yan University doesn’t please Professor Sun when it comes to it.
“Professor Sun, I’m Shen Qi back again!” Shen Qi said cheerfully on the phone.
“Is it great to be back?” Sun Erxiong sounded very noisy.
“This…” Shen Qi was speechless, yeah, this is Yan University, forcing Wang to walk all over the street, what’s so great about my pre-admissions for mathematics department?
“I am very busy now and have no time to talk to you. You will hear a speech in the auditorium an hour later.” Sun Erxiong hung up after speaking.
“This… old grandson, you have changed.” Shen Qixin said that last fall, old grandson, you asked me to eat dumplings, eat buns, and give me directional advice. It’s good to me. This May Day, why did you become like this? This man, he changes when he says he changes, so indifferent.
Where is the sacred speech in the auditorium today, so that the old grandson has no time to talk to me? Go, go take a look. Shen Qi walked towards the auditorium.
Walking to the auditorium, Shen Qi saw a large sign erected at the entrance of the auditorium with the words: “Welcome internationally renowned mathematicians Yun Wei and Gong Changwei to return to school to give a speech.”
“It turns out that the gods of Yun and the gods are back. No wonder the old grandson has no time to talk to me!” Shen Qi just complained a little bit about Sun Erxiong, but now, he is relieved.
Where are the gods of the cloud and the great gods?
They are the pride of the Department of Mathematics at Yan University, and the most promising Chinese mathematicians in the contemporary era to impact the Fields Medal.
F+W+A mathematics super grand slam winners such as Jean-Pierre Serre, Deligne, John Milno, and John Thompson are too far away from Shen Qi, and he does not know whether he can see these mathematics in his life. The living super big cow in the world, after all, is the old man, and he is not forgiving at his age.
(F=Fields Medal, W=Wolf Prize, A=Abel Prize)
A slightly younger F+W+A Grand Slam winner, Shen Qi has a fate, and that is Andrew Wiles.
Even though he had a relationship with Andrew Wiles in London, Shen Qi held that Sir Wiles was still too far away from him.
However, Yunwei and Gong Changwei are different. They are both Chinese, very young, in their thirties, and both are produced by the Department of Mathematics of Yan University. Both of them have won IMO gold medals when they were in middle school… This makes Shen Qi feel very substitute. what.
entered the auditorium to find a place to sit down, Shen Qi looked around, and there was still nearly an hour to speak. A small half of the audience had already arrived in the auditorium, all of them looked like college students.
So the old grandson was busy entertaining Yun Shen and Wei Shen, right? Shen Qi figured it out and waited for the speech to begin.
It is not ordinary people who can give speeches in the Peking University Auditorium. Clinton has given speeches here, Chirac has given speeches here, Gates has given speeches here, as well as many great scientists and well-known young scholars in the scientific community.
At three o’clock in the afternoon, the auditorium was full and the speech began.
The host made a grand introduction: “We invite the winners of the Scientific Breakthrough Award, the Ramanu Gold Award, and the youngest professor at Yale University, Yun Wei, to give a speech!”
Happiness!
There was warm applause from the audience, and Shen Qi was also applauding, cheering for Yun Shen from the heart.
The host highly summarized Yunwei’s achievements in three sentences.
The Science Breakthrough Award was founded by business leaders such as Zuckerberg, Jack Ma, and Sergey Brin. Several of these leaders own companies such as Facebook, Ali, and Google that rely on technology to feed themselves.
The Science Breakthrough Award has established awards for life sciences, basic physics, mathematics, etc., with a single prize of up to 3 million U.S. dollars, far exceeding the Nobel Prize.
Ramanu Gold Award, anyone who engages in mathematics knows its weight, the international mathematics award is second only to F+W+A.
Yunwei is in his early thirties and is a professor in the Mathematics Department of Yale University. He is the youngest full professor in Yale University’s hundreds of years of history.
Yunwei wore glasses and looked gentle. He opened his mouth and said: “I am a bit stupid, so I chose mathematics.”
Ha ha.
There is a knowing laughter from the audience, are you stupid? Then we are all mentally retarded, okay.
Yunwei briefly introduced his own experience. He loved mathematics since he was a child. He won the IMO gold medal in his second year of high school (he was a full score gold medal). After that, he was very lucky to be sent to the Department of Mathematics of Yan University…
Up to this point, Shen Qi listened very emotionally. My experience is very similar to Yunshen… Well, the experience of the last one or two years.
Yunwei said something lightly. When I was an undergraduate in the Department of Mathematics at Yan University, I was awarded the title of “Third Best Student” every year. The mathematics major examinations were basically full scores. The only thing that failed was number theory. I was particularly afraid of number theory.
“So I don’t dare to touch number theory. When I was studying for a master’s degree or a doctoral degree in the Princeton Department of Mathematics, I chose the direction of algebraic geometry…”
Yunwei completed his undergraduate studies in the Department of Mathematics at Yan’an University and went to the Department of Mathematics at Princeton to get his doctorate. Then he worked as a lecturer at MIT and an associate professor at Stanford. He is currently a professor in the Department of Mathematics at Yale University.
“The field I am studying is called the Langlands Program, which can be understood as a new program of number theory + algebraic geometry. It has historical significance. I hope to make a breakthrough and let the name of Chinese mathematicians shine on the world stage.”
Happiness!
The audience interrupted Yun Wei’s speech with thunderous applause. Most of the audience were teachers and students of Yan University, and they were knowledgeable.
“Awesome, if you have managed to get the Langlands Program, Yunshen, the Fields Medal will be trivial. This program is enough to unify the international mathematics martial arts.” Shen Qi applauded warmly. Of course he knows the meaning of the Langlands Program. .
is particularly awesome in the field of research called “program” in the mathematics circle.
There are only three programs in mathematics so far: the Irish Root Program, the Hilbert Program, and the Langlands Program.
The first two programs were produced in the 19th century to the early 20th century, leading the development of mathematics for nearly a century.
The Langlands Program was proposed in the middle and late 20th century. To explain the Langlands Program in more popular terms is: it integrates number theory, algebraic geometry and group theory to form a programmatic guidance document Let’s talk about popular One point, if a mathematician cannot solve a problem in one field, then it can be solved in another field.
There is no mathematical problem that cannot be solved by the Langlands Program. If there is, let’s do it again…Theoretically, if the Langlands Program is thoroughly proven, it will possess the universal power of programmatic unification.
After the 1990s, three mathematicians partially solved some of the conjectures in the Langlands Program and successively won the Fields Medal. One of them was Delinfeld, a contemporary mathematician.
In fact, F+W+A Grand Slam winner Andrew Wiles proved Fermat’s Last Theorem, which provided very important support for the Langlands Program.
Wiles Daniel is a master of number theory. He is very sensitive to numbers. Do you think it is easy for an Englishman to quickly calculate the addition, subtraction, multiplication, and division within 40? No, this requires a very high arithmetic talent. Wiles has this talent, so he won the Fields Medal and became one of the great mathematics circles today.
The existence of program is very attractive. Shen Qi set up a lofty goal in his heart, the Langlands Program, and I hope that before Yunshen you can get it done, I can also set foot in one or two.
“I am very honored to be able to return to my alma mater this time. I would like to thank my teachers in the Mathematics Department of Yantai University, Teacher Zhang Yuxin, Teacher Su Weilong, and Teacher Sun Erxiong. Shien always dare not forget in his heart. Thank you for your cultivation!” Yun Wei bowed deeply to the audience, again causing applause and roar.
The two former teachers, Teacher Zhang and Teacher Su, are both famous teachers in the Mathematics Department of Yan University.
“Fat old Sun is okay, you are also a famous teacher?” Shen Qi looked around. Professor Sun must be in this auditorium, with an obvious target of more than 200 kilograms. Where is the person sitting?
