Xueba starts with change

Chapter 510 Set "teacher" on the spot?
Deligne didn't know what they chatted with Chen Zhou later.

I don't even know if I have any more conversations with Chen Zhou.

In short, he was a little dazed.

So much so that he only remembered that he was rejected by Chen Zhou again...

In Deligne's memory, there seems to be no mathematician who has rejected himself continuously.

Even his own teacher, Grothendieck, the emperor of algebraic geometry, never did it.

"Huh? Why are you here?"

Deligne just wanted to swipe the room card, go back to the room to clean up, and then go to the dinner party.

But unexpectedly found that Faltings and Langlands were waiting for him.

Faltings glanced at Deligne, then turned his head and said to Langlands: "Am I right?"

Langlands didn't answer Faltings' words, but asked Deligne with some surprise: "Chen Zhou, he doesn't want to come to Princeton?"

Deligne nodded slightly, thought for a while, and then said: "This kid's thinking is indeed different from ordinary people..."

Langlands asked again: "Didn't you tell him the result of our discussion with the dean?"

Deligne said with a helpless expression: "Why didn't I say anything, whether it's a full professor at Princeton University or a researcher at the Institute for Advanced Study in Princeton, I told him everything."

Langlands asked strangely: "How could this happen? Has he really thought about it? How long has he thought about it?"

Hearing what Langlands said, Deligne glanced at him, and said more helplessly: "It didn't take me long to think about it, but after I asked him, he refused..."

Langlands was suddenly surprised: "How is this possible? Doesn't he know what this invitation means?"

Faltings also looked at Deligne in surprise.

Although he thought that Chen Zhou would reject their invitation, he never expected that Chen Zhou would directly refuse on the spot.

After all, the value and allure of this invitation are great for any mathematician.

Not to mention, such a young Chen Zhou.

Deligne shook his head slightly: "I think he is very clear about the meaning of this invitation, and he is also very clear about what he wants. He is more aware of his choice, and it is by no means impulsive."

Hearing this, Langlands and Faltings froze for a moment at the same time, and they slowly looked at each other.

It seems that this young mathematician is far beyond their imagination.

Think about it too, within a year, you can solve three world-class mathematical conjectures in a row.

While solving Goldbach's conjecture, it can also point out the fatal flaw in the opponent's proof process.

It is also possible to complete a Nobel Prize-level physics project while studying mathematics.

Such a person may not be judged by his age alone.

What he pursues must be far more than ordinary people.

At this moment, Faltings and Langlands' impression of Chen Zhou changed again.

Langlands said with regret: "Princeton may have missed a future leader in mathematics..."

Faltings was silent and did not speak.

Deligne opened his mouth, but didn't say anything.

Langlands' words have directly expressed the true thoughts of the three of them.

Perhaps, Princeton really missed a future leader in mathematics.

And this future is slowly coming...

Because Chen Zhou's report will end much earlier than Harold Hoofgot's report.

Therefore, the time for the dinner party to start should be quite a bit in the morning.

At the beginning of the dinner, Chen Zhou came with Professor A Ting.

As for the reason, it is actually similar to Deligne.

However, Professor Artin is not as persistent as Deligne.

Naturally, there was no feeling of frustration after Deligne was rejected.

As Chen Zhou's tutor, Professor A Ting still knows Chen Zhou better.

Therefore, although Professor A Ting was a little surprised by Chen Zhou's choice, it was within his expectation.

MIT may be suitable for many people, but not necessarily for Chen Zhou.

And with Chen Zhou's research method, it's the same everywhere.

Wherever he is, that is his world.

And, as time went on, until Harold Hoofgot had conceded defeat for good.

Goldbach's conjecture will also become Goldbach's last theorem, or the Chen-Goldbach theorem.

At that time, the Fields Medal will also be in Chen Zhou's pocket.

At that time, Chen Zhou can also use his own influence to change the place he wants to go.

Unlike what Professor A Ting thought so much, Chen Zhou actually wanted to ask a question during the conversation.

That is, before Harold Hoofgot admitted failure, could he rely on Goldbach's conjecture to graduate from Professor Artin's thesis.

In the final analysis, for Chen Zhou, he just wanted to finish his graduation thesis...

After hearing Chen Zhou's words, Professor A Ting was taken aback for a moment, and then laughed and scolded: "If you say this, be careful not to be beaten by others. If others can prove Goldbach's conjecture, they will probably be so excited that they can't sleep for several days. In the end, when it comes to you, it turned out to be just to complete the graduation thesis..."

Chen Zhou laughed and said, "Professor Ah Ting, it's a subject anyway, and it will have to be solved sooner or later. I'm not just thinking about the graduation thesis."

Professor Artin smiled and shook his head: "Don't worry, don't say that you pointed out the mistakes in Professor Harold Hoofgot's thesis, even if you didn't point it out, this thesis is enough to complete the graduation .”

Hearing this, Chen Zhou was delighted and said, "Thank you Professor, I can finally graduate now!"

Seeing Chen Zhou's appearance, Professor Arting looked sideways slightly.

He just felt that Chen Zhou's performance didn't look like a rising star in mathematics that attracted worldwide attention.

I don't know, I thought this was a poor boy who was stuck with his thesis for countless years and finally gave it to him...

But at the same time, Professor Artin also realized one thing.

The reason why Chen Zhou was able to solve these mathematical conjectures so quickly was also because of his simple thoughts?
When many people are researching, they can't let go of the name of mathematical conjecture itself.

As a result, my own research is limited everywhere.

On the other hand, Chen Zhou regards mathematical conjecture as an ordinary mathematical subject to study.

In this case, in the process of research, will it be obtained because of letting go?

Professor Artin didn't know, but the more he thought about it, the more he felt it was possible.

If Chen Zhou knew what Professor A Ting was thinking at the moment, he would probably be really confused.

The reason why he thinks this way is only because of the existence of system tasks.

System tasks don't matter what you guess or guess, everything is based on the subject itself.

Therefore, in Chen Zhou's eyes, all mathematical conjectures are the same, they are all problems that need to be solved.

After the dinner began, Professor Goddard, the dean of the Institute for Advanced Study in Princeton, gave another speech.

Compared with the speech he gave the night before, today's Professor Goddard is obviously a little more enthusiastic.

The atmosphere of the dinner party was also relatively lively and cheerful.

After all, Harold Hoofgot, who was the protagonist of the previous night, was just pointed out by Chen Zhou as a fatal flaw in the thesis.

I am worrying infinitely about this, how can I be in a good state?
Since the protagonists are all frustrated, let alone the dinner party.

But tonight was different.

Tonight's dinner was held after Chen Zhou used his proof process to conquer everyone present, including the competitor Harold Hoofgot.

The atmosphere has completely changed.

The only thing that was the same in the two nights was probably the atmosphere around Chen Zhou.

Always so lively, so enthusiastic.

Although Harold Hoofgot has not yet fully admitted his failure.

But most people already understood that Harold Hoofgot would admit it sooner or later.

It's just a matter of time.

Judging from the situation this time, Harold Hoofgot should not be consumed.

When the right to prove Goldbach's conjecture completely fell into Chen Zhou's hands.

Then Chen Zhou will truly be among the ranks of mathematics giants.

And it's top notch.

So, while it was still early, before Harold Hoofgot conceded defeat.

Some young scholars, some mathematics colleagues, began to get close to Chen Zhou.

Even, many Princeton students mixed in.

Among these students, there are many children from the physics department.

After all, some time ago, Chen Zhou had just solved the problem of glue balls, and he was qualified to compete for the Nobel Prize in Physics.

In the world of physics, he can be considered to have initially reached the level of a boss.

After sending away another professor from the Princeton Department of Mathematics who was close to him, Chen Zhou turned his head and smiled bitterly: "Yiyi, why isn't the dinner over yet?"

Yang Yiyi, who had been with Chen Zhou since the dinner, smiled and replied, "This is your moment of glory, do you want it to end so early?"

Chen Zhou looked at another person walking towards him with a smile, and nodded firmly: "I really hope it will end soon..."

Yang Yiyi smiled softly, and said narrowly: "That can't be helped, who made you so handsome at the report meeting yesterday and today?"

Hearing Yang Yiyi's words, Chen Zhou immediately said triumphantly, "You think so too?"

Yang Yiyi glanced at Chen Zhou and nodded slightly.

Seeing this, Chen Zhou was no longer bothered, and there was a smile on his face.

As far as Chen Zhou is concerned, what he likes to hear the most is Yang Yiyi's praise of him.

"Hello, Dr. Chen Zhou, my name is Butzweig Douglas, from the Department of Basic Mathematics of the Ecole Normale Supérieure de Paris, nice to meet you!"

The person who walked up to Chen Zhou introduced himself politely.

"Hi, I'm Chen Zhou, nice to meet you too."

Chen Zhou was in a good mood at the moment, so it was rare for him to say something more.

Douglas didn't know the reason. Seeing that he got more of Chen Zhou's first sentence than the others before him, he thought that he had won Chen Zhou's favor.

So there was a hint of joy in his heart immediately.

This scene was also noticed by many people who followed here.

While secretly delighted, Douglas began to flatter.

"Dr. Chen Zhou, you are simply amazing. We all thought that you would ask Professor Harold Hoofgot a lot of questions, but we didn't expect you to find out the The most fatal flaw."

"Not only that, your own thesis is simply too perfect, I have never seen such a perfect thesis! Whether it is the idea of ​​proof in the thesis, the calculations involved in the thesis, or the accidental inspiration in the thesis, it is amazing. People praise it!"

"And your report meeting, from the shallower to the deeper, step by step, and eloquent, it is simply the best report meeting I have ever heard, no matter it is..."

Chen Zhou didn't want to interrupt the other party, but he didn't expect that the other party's shots became more and more vigorous, and it had already involved the matter of him proving Krammel's theorem on the spot.

"Ahem..." After coughing twice, Chen Zhou asked aloud, "Well, Professor Douglas...Professor?"

Douglas: "No, no, I'm a student just like you."

Chen Zhou: "Student Douglas, if you have anything to say, just say it, don't need to talk about it..."

Douglas nodded in understanding.

After carefully organizing the language, Douglas said: "That's it, Dr. Chen Zhou, I heard that both Princeton University and the Princeton Institute for Advanced Study have invited you. If you teach at Princeton University after graduation, no Do you know if I can enroll in your graduate program?"

After listening to Douglas' words, Chen Zhou was surprised, but also a little dumbfounded.

I haven't even graduated yet, but some students came to me on their own initiative?
Everyone else is getting close at this dinner party. Is this person in front of you going to be a "teacher" on the spot?

After thinking about it, Chen Zhou asked, "Who did you hear that I'm coming to Princeton?"

Douglas hesitated and said: "I... I heard it from a friend in Princeton. He overheard the conversation between the dean and Professor Faltings and others..."

Chen Zhou immediately understood that he was not surprised by the internal discussion before Deligne came to him.

The people in the School of Mathematics of the Institute for Advanced Study in Princeton have only one hand. Now we want to add a new one. Can we not discuss it?
only……

Chen Zhou replied softly: "I refused."

"You refused, I knew it, you would definitely answer..." Douglas was talking, and then he realized that something was wrong. This answer is not the same as he imagined, isn't it?

He looked at Chen Zhou with a face full of shock, and said in disbelief: "Dr. Chen Zhou, you rejected the invitation from Princeton? The invitation from the Institute for Advanced Study and Princeton University?"

Douglas' voice successfully attracted the attention of everyone present.

There were whispered conversations, one after another.

They were all surprised by Chen Zhou's choice.

The place is now called Princeton.

There is a strong academic atmosphere here, and it is the center of mathematics in the world.

But that man, the young mathematician who conquered everyone with his perfect performance today.

He turned down an invitation from Princeton?
How can this be?

Everyone was waiting for Chen Zhou's reaffirmed answer.

Out of the corner of Chen Zhou's eyes, there were people looking at him.

Chen Zhou was quite helpless. He really wanted to tell Douglas, this classmate, why are you so excited?I refused, not you...

Glancing at Douglas, Chen Zhou nodded lightly when he met the boss' eyes staring at him in surprise, "I did decline Princeton's invitation."

In an instant, in the banquet hall.

All unbelievable eyes!
They didn't understand why Chen Zhou refused such an invitation?
How many mathematicians have dreamed of this invitation?

Douglas swallowed hard, thinking of another possibility, he asked again: "Then... do you plan to stay at MIT to teach?"

Chen Zhou was slightly puzzled, what kind of logic is this?

Shouldn't it be Princeton, but MIT?
He shook his head: "No, I don't plan to stay at MIT either."

one more time.

in the banquet hall.

The unbelievable eyes of everyone are even more...
