Xueba's life simulator

Chapter 290
"It seems that I am busy during the report meeting."

Thinking of this, Zhou Ming smiled and said to himself.

Time flies, and a month passes quickly.

When the time for the report announced by Zhou Ming arrived, mathematics experts from all over the world had already gathered in a lecture hall of Huaguo University of Science and Technology.

Some of them came to Luzhou several days in advance, and their purpose was to have a good exchange with Zhou Ming.

But who knew that since they came to Luzhou, not only had they not had a good communication with Zhou Ming, but they had never even seen Zhou Ming in person.

The originally scheduled time for the report was eight o'clock in the morning, but Zhou Ming was late this time, and it was delayed until ten o'clock before rushing to the Huaguo University of Science and Technology. In the lecture hall where the report is to be given.

"Sorry, sorry, I'm really sorry everyone, I'm busy with some things, and it's too late."

After rushing to the lecture hall, Zhou Ming showed an embarrassed expression, and apologized repeatedly to the bigwigs in the field of mathematics who were waiting for him to give a report in the lecture hall.

At this time, everyone in the lecture hall also noticed that Zhou Ming's hair was a little messy, and there were dark circles around his eyes, as if he hadn't slept all night.

Although Zhou Ming looked very tired, judging from his performance, he was full of energy.

"Could it be that Zhou Ming discovered some loopholes in the process of proving Hodge's conjecture, and was fixing these loopholes overnight? But if there are any loopholes, why haven't we people discovered them until now?"

After seeing Zhou Ming who arrived at the lecture hall two hours late, the mathematics experts at the scene thought so.

"If you are interested in physics, if there is time at the end of this report, I can talk to you in detail about the specific reasons for my lateness this time. Well, I won't talk nonsense now."

Just when everyone was still thinking about why Zhou Ming was two hours late and still looked so embarrassed, Zhou Ming walked to the front podium while talking.

"First, we study the quasi-smooth intersection in the projective simplicial toric variant, which is then used to generalize the smooth complete intersection sub-variant in the toric environment... Hodge conjectures that for every hypersurface and Both p<(d1)/2 hold, and according to...

For a very general quasi-smooth intersecting variant X truncated by f1, Σ up X down i = 1deg(fi)-β0..."

When Zhou Ming started to explain the question about Hodge's conjecture, everyone at the scene soon put all their thoughts on Hodge's conjecture, and no one thought about Zhou Ming's two hours late.

When the time came to more than twelve o'clock in the morning, Zhou Ming, who had been talking for two hours, finally stopped.

"I can't finish the rest of the talk for a while, let's have lunch first, and we'll talk about it later in the afternoon." After stopping, Zhou Ming said again.

When everyone left the lecture hall one after another and went to have lunch, several experts in mathematics who studied Hodge's conjecture, or who had studied Hodge's conjecture related issues, came to Zhou Ming's side one after another.

"You just said that you were late this time because of physics problems. What were you researching?" An old man with graying hair and a large area of ​​the top of his head was bald and asked Zhou Ming.

"I still have some doubts about the proof process of Hodge's conjecture..." After the first old man finished speaking, the second bald old man with gray hair also said to Zhou Ming.

The first two people who asked Zhou Ming questions were the German mathematician Faltings, who once used the method of algebraic geometry to prove the Model conjecture in number theory, and the Belgian mathematician Pierre René, who was born in Brussels. Viscount Deligne.

Both of them came to the Huaguo University of Science and Technology for the first time when Zhou Ming gave a lecture to mathematicians from all over the world. They all had a good chat with Zhou Ming at that time, and they also brought the mathematical methods Zhou Ming and them talked about. Back to their respective schools.

"The reason why I am late today is because I have been studying the grand unified theory, and I was at the tightest time..."

Since it was Faltings who asked Zhou Ming the question first, Zhou Ming also answered Faltings' question first, and he was walking towards the school cafeteria while answering.

However, when Zhou Ming said that he was late for two hours today because of the Grand Unified Theory, people around him immediately asked in surprise, "What? The Grand Unified Theory?"

It wasn't just the person who spoke who showed surprise at the scene, except for Zhou Ming, everyone else looked in disbelief.

"Yes, that's right, it's the Grand Unified Theory. It was at the most critical moment. I was worried that if I stopped, I would not have such inspiration later, so I was late." Zhou Ming continued.

As for inspiration, this is purely a random reason Zhou Ming found. After all, he did not rely on inspiration to complete this grand unified theory.

After Zhou Ming's confirmation, no one will ask about Hodge's conjecture anymore. After all, this report held by Zhou Ming will talk about Hodge's conjecture. What they don't understand can be done in the following report. ask.

But if they don't ask about this grand unified theory now, they may not necessarily have the opportunity to ask about it later.

When they were walking on the campus road leading to the cafeteria, the students passing by saw Zhou Ming, who is rarely seen on campus now, and the circle of scholars around Zhou Ming, and discussed whether they could hear When they understood the words, they all stopped to watch.

Although Zhou Ming is now a professor of the School of Life Sciences and the School of Mathematical Sciences of Huaguo University of Science and Technology, and also serves as the dean of the School of Mathematical Sciences, the teachers and students of Huaguo University of Science and Technology have discovered that Zhou Ming is now appearing on campus The time here is getting shorter and shorter, and the frequency is getting less and less.

On the campus of Huaguo University of Science and Technology, only those professors who signed the national confidentiality agreement and participated in related experimental projects knew why Zhou Ming appeared less and less in the school.

After the last simulation, Zhou Ming started a large number of new projects. These are very confidential and important projects. Every researcher participating in the project has signed the highest level national confidentiality agreement.

The level of these confidentiality agreements is even higher than what they signed before. It can even be said that they are the highest level of confidentiality agreements in Huaguo.

Therefore, in the eyes of these scholars, Zhou Ming is busy with these projects.

"Isn't that Edward Witten from the United States? Didn't he study string theory and quantum field theory at the Institute for Advanced Study in Princeton? Why did he come to our school? Could it be that our school invited him to teach?"

"What are you thinking? Didn't you see that besides Edward Witten, there are Faltings and Deligne next to Academician Zhou? Each of them is a Fields Medal winner. No matter how good our school is, It’s impossible to invite them all to be professors, right?”

"They came to attend the report meeting held by Academician Zhou. Academician Zhou held a report meeting specifically for Hodge's conjecture, but this report meeting is not open to us students, so you don't know."

"Then how did you know?"

"I belong to the student union, and I'm in charge of working there today."

"They are all mathematicians, why are they mainly discussing physical issues now? I also heard them talking about the Yang-Mills equation, and the relationship between the strong interaction and the interaction of electrons."

……

After seeing such a lineup, the students passing by began to discuss it.

"... In this way, we have found the hub between the strong interaction, the weak interaction, and the electromagnetic force, and then..."

It took Zhou Ming a month to sort out and write out the matter of the Grand Unification Theory. Naturally, this time is not enough to explain clearly to the scholars around him.

Therefore, when a group of people walked to the cafeteria, prepared meals, and started to eat in the cafeteria with their plates, Zhou Ming's explanation was not over yet.

"...It's probably like this, and I have omitted more than half of it.

However, I have already submitted a paper on the grand unified theory to a journal in China.

And it’s also available online. If you’re interested, you can check it out online. I guess it will take a while until the journal publishes it. "

When the group finished lunch and returned to the lecture hall, Zhou Ming had probably finished speaking.

And this was only finished when Zhou Ming omitted more than half of it.

"These sound reasonable, but there are too many speculations and assumptions in your proof process.

If you really want to become completely certain, you have to rely on those experimental physicists to conduct experiments that meet the requirements of your speculations and assumptions. I am afraid it will take some time. "

After Zhou Ming finished speaking, someone said.

This group of bigwigs in the field of mathematics didn't have a lunch break either. They all rushed back to the lecture hall after lunch and asked Zhou Ming to continue talking about Hodge's conjecture.

In the end, the report didn't end until after five o'clock in the afternoon.

Fortunately, Zhou Ming didn't keep talking all afternoon. If he kept talking like this all afternoon, his voice wouldn't be able to stand it.

During the afternoon, the mathematicians at the scene also knew that Zhou Ming was two hours late this morning to complete the Grand Unification Theory.

Those scholars who were interested in the grand unified theory did not leave Luzhou soon after the lecture hall ended. Instead, they approached Zhou Ming one after another, wanting to continue to talk in detail about the grand unified theory with Zhou Ming.

And as the news spread on the Internet about Zhou Ming's solution to the Grand Unified Theory, it immediately sparked heated discussions on the Internet.

"Academician Zhou is too awesome. During this period of time, he first developed an artificial intelligence with independent thinking and human emotions, and solved Hodge's conjecture, and now he solved the grand unified theory. This is a big pill. Bar."

"It has to be said that Academician Zhou's recent achievements are really fast. The research time of these achievements is based on the unit of years. .

But now, the research on mathematics and physics seems to be free of money, one after another, one after another. "

"Do you think there is a possibility that academician Zhou has actually started to study Hodge's conjecture and this grand unified theory when he was studying the 'evolution' of genetic medicine or artificial intelligence?"

"I think it is very possible that Academician Zhou is studying Hodge's conjecture. In a paper on artificial intelligence algorithms they published in a domestic journal, a new algorithm mentioned is related to Hodge's conjecture. certain relationship.

But to say that Academician Zhou studied this grand unified theory a long time ago, I think it is unlikely.

Because I have also read the article on the grand unified theory published by Academician Zhou. It contains a lot of knowledge about the Hodge conjecture. If the Hodge conjecture had not been solved, it would be impossible to have these views in the current grand unified theory. of. "

"Catch one of the bosses upstairs."

Although most of the comments on Zhou Ming on the Internet are praiseworthy, but with a population of 14 billion in Huaguo, there will always be some people who feel that everyone is drunk and I am sober, and want to express something that seems very unique. .

More importantly, when you can make money while expressing these opinions, people will naturally disagree with others.

When the discussion about Zhou Ming was in full swing on the Internet, someone said [Do you really think that the research results of genetic medicine 'evolution' and artificial intelligence were all made by Zhou Ming alone? ] With such a title, an article was sent out.

At such a point in time, such a title naturally attracted a lot of clicks.

The content of this article is to say that whether it is the "evolution" of genetic medicine or the newly born artificial intelligence not long ago, Zhou Ming cannot be given full credit for these, because countless researchers are behind them. hard work.

People should thank and admire countless scientific researchers, not Zhou Ming alone.

In addition, this article also talks about the role of the "evolution" of genetic medicines, as well as some characteristics of new artificial intelligence. In fact, some people have mentioned it in some so-called articles before, and continue to hint to readers Zhou Ming's role in the "evolution" of genetic medicine and new artificial intelligence is not as great as people think.

In addition to these, this article also pointed out that the Hodge conjecture and the grand unified theory have not yet been recognized by the mathematics and physics communities, and it cannot be assumed that both problems have been solved by default.

In particular, the Grand Unified Theory, due to the large number of speculations and assumptions designed in it, is nothing that is belittled by this article.

As soon as such an article came out, it was immediately criticized by many people, and its popularity continued to rise.

And among the people who read this article, there are some people who feel that they are "sane in the world" and say "there is nothing wrong with this article" and "the academic circles in Huaguo should not be able to accept criticism" and other words.

In fact, this kind of thing has always happened before. Even before Zhou Ming's rise, many old scholars who were revered by the Chinese people were criticized as nothing by some malicious self-media.

Especially those scholars who are publicized more, the more these self-media like to publish articles that represent “different” viewpoints.

Because such articles tend to get more clicks and earn more money.
