Chapter 194 Proving the BAB Conjecture
Chapter 195 Proving the BAB Conjecture
After the meeting, Qin Yuanqing continued his research.

With continuous research, finally on March 3st, Qin Yuanqing wrote down the last formula on the draft paper, which represented that the BAB conjecture, a difficult problem that has plagued the mathematics world for more than 1 years, was conquered.

At this point, the BAB conjecture will no longer exist in the world!
The BAB conjecture will completely become the BAB theorem, yes, the BAB theorem will be its correct name in the future.

And Qin Yuanqing also used the proof of the BAB conjecture to declare that he is not only a master of number theory, but also a master of algebraic geometry!
"It's too simple, it will come naturally!" Qin Yuanqing showed a smile on his face. Although he was disturbed during the period, he couldn't study it wholeheartedly, but now he is still conquered by him.

"These guys always come up with these outlandish conjectures, which make posterity troublesome! Will I also come up with some conjectures in the future, embarrassing for future generations?" Qin Yuanqing rubbed his chin, thinking thoughtfully.

Sometimes the person who put forward the conjecture just has an inspiration, and then puts it forward, asking him to prove that he can't prove it.

For example, Riemann conjectured that at the beginning Riemann pretended to be forced, and the letter was too small. In fact, he himself could not prove the conjecture.

It is easy to guess this thing, but it is difficult to prove it!

Otherwise, there will be some conjectures, which have not been proven for hundreds of years.

Qin Yuanqing stretched his waist, fortunately he was still young, otherwise he would still use his brain like this when he was middle-aged, and he would have to wear a Mediterranean hairstyle.

Qin Yuanqing shuddered at the thought that he might become bald in the future.

Shaking his head hastily, he hurriedly expelled this terrible thought.

It took some time to finally add "The Proof of the BAB Conjecture" to the already edited part. His habit is to edit a part after completing a part. After the final proof, there will be fewer papers.

Then Qin Yuanqing submitted the English version to "Mathematics Chronicle", which is a magazine that Qin Yuanqing has been cooperating with. The cooperation between the two parties has been very pleasant. Qin Yuanqing is naturally happy to submit the paper to "Mathematics Chronicle".

The world's four major mathematics professional journals, "Acta Mathematica", "New Advances in Mathematics", "Journal of the American Mathematical Society", and "The Chronicle of Mathematics".

The other three major journals have also invited Qin Yuanqing to submit papers, hoping that Qin Yuanqing will contribute to them next time, and Qin Yuanqing naturally agrees, but now that the paper comes out, he still chooses to submit it to "The Chronicle of Mathematics".

When submitting to other journals, the review period is a flaw. The average review period is 3 to 6 months, but "Mathematics Chronicle" is different. The cooperation between the two parties is very pleasant, and basically they will review the manuscript as soon as possible. .

As for the Chinese version, it is a mathematics journal handed over to Shuimi University.

. . . . . .

"Shuimu Mathematics Journal" is located in Shuimu University Press. The publishing house was established in June 1980. It is rooted in Shuimu, a prestigious institution of higher learning. It upholds the humanistic spirit of "self-improvement and virtue" of the Shuimu people. Shuimu University The publishing house has grown rapidly in just over 6 years, and has formed a word-of-mouth effect mainly for publishing high-level textbooks and academic monographs.

The office building of Shuimu University Press is relatively old, and there are two offices on the third floor, which belong to "Shuimu Mathematics Journal". In less than two years, "Shuimu Mathematics Journal" has entered the top three domestic mathematical journals. Almost every day, mathematical papers are submitted to the "Journal of Shuimu Mathematics". These editors are responsible for the first round of review, and then arrange for the papers that pass the review to be published.

"Huh? Academician Qin submitted a paper!?" An editor saw Qin Yuanqing's name appearing in the submission area, and shouted: "And it's not one paper, but three papers!"

Other editors went to read it one after another. There was no other way. The biggest backer behind their journal was Qin Yuanqing. It was with Qin Yuanqing as the backer that the journal's rising momentum was so strong!

Last year, Qin Yuanqing didn't have a single mathematics paper, and the popularity of the journal dropped a lot. They looked forward to the stars and the moon and prayed for Qin Yuanqing's mathematics papers every day. They didn't expect that today would finally come, and there would be three papers at once.

"Oops, it's in the field of algebraic geometry, not the scope of my research. I can't understand it!" The male editor frowned: "Forget it, what's wrong with Academician Qin's thesis? I've passed the first hurdle. It's hard to find a manuscript!"

Others also frowned.

Then the professional editor-in-chief said: "In this way, I will call Academician Qin. If you submit to our journal alone, we will invite other reviewers. If Academician Qin is the Chinese version like before, then we don't need to find other people to review the manuscript. , when the time comes, it will be published together with foreign journals.”

Others nodded one after another, after all, this was the previous practice.

The editor-in-chief called Qin Yuanqing and was relieved to learn that the news was only in Chinese. Otherwise, it would not be easy to find an authoritative expert to review the manuscript for Qin Yuanqing.

"Everyone, go down and prepare, we will publish a special issue of these three papers!" the editor-in-chief ordered.

Of the three papers, except for the first paper, which is only two pages, the other two papers can have many pages, and a special issue can be published.

. . . . . .

America, Chronicle of Mathematics Editorial Board
After receiving the three papers submitted by Qin Yuanqing, the editorial department was pushed to a climax. In the past few years, "Mathematics Chronicle" was actually going downhill. Chronicle not only stopped the decline, but also directly recovered its peak. The quality of submitted papers has become higher, and it is easier to find paper review experts.

For almost the entire year of 2011, there were no papers by Qin Yuanqing, which made the editors of "Mathematics Chronicle" very uncomfortable.

As a result, there are three papers!

"Oh my God, these three papers are linked one after the other, solving the first problem of the minimal model program, the second problem, and then solving the BAB conjecture!"

"It's unbelievable. Professor Qin not only has extremely high attainments in the field of number theory, but also has high attainments in the field of algebraic geometry! Such a mathematical genius did not come out of Princeton University, nor did he teach at Princeton University!"

"God, there's nothing wrong with these three papers in my opinion, and they're all worthy of a special issue!"

The editors unanimously agreed to recommend three papers to the editor-in-chief. If they only solve the first problem or the second problem of the minimal model program, the papers are not enough to be included in the "Mathematical Chronicle" is the requirement of "Mathematical Chronicle" for paper quality very good.

These three papers are twisted out separately, and only the proof of the BAB conjecture is eligible to be published in the Chronicle of Mathematics.But now there are three papers at once, and the three papers are only interlocking. This is not a problem of 1+1=2, and its influence is even greater.

For such papers, whether it is "The Chronicle of Mathematics" or other top professional journals, they will not be stingy with a special issue.

. . . . . .

After Qin Yuanqing submitted the paper, he stopped paying attention to it. It took a period of time from the submission of the paper to the publication of the paper. In the middle, a reviewer was required to review the manuscript, and the author revised it according to the reviewer's review comments.

Qin Yuanqing was pulled by Jing Tian who had just returned to the capital for a haircut. He hadn't groomed for a while, and Qin Yuanqing looked a little sloppy.

Seeing his hair falling under the barber's scissors, Qin Yuanqing felt very complicated. He felt a kind of reluctance, even wishing that men in ancient times would have long hair.

However, after cutting a short cut, the whole person looks more energetic, and he feels much refreshed, so Qin Yuanqing does not reject it.

Jing Tian will be in the capital during this time, and she will only accept a few endorsements and shoot commercials. She seems to have started to worry about her career, using her contacts to get commercial endorsements for artists, and participate in TV dramas and movie investments.

Previously, she invested in "33 Days of Broken Relationship", which she starred in, and the accounts had been divided. According to her intention, she hadn't invested much in these years, so it would be very difficult to make accounts, and she would need to pay a lot of taxes.

So she bought a three-story office building, bought two villas as dormitories for artists, bought various equipment, and invested in several TV series and movies.

The two of them used to get together less often, but this time they could get together for a while, and it was rare for Qin Yuanqing to commute to and from get off work on time every day.

"Dean Qin, we have already demonstrated the relevant materials, and the theory is feasible. Now we just need to manufacture samples for testing." Academician Liu approached Qin Yuanqing with a happy face and said.

There is no problem with the theoretical verification, so the next step is to come up with samples for testing.

After all, no matter how perfect the theory is, it is useless if it cannot be produced or the produced samples cannot meet the requirements.

The materials provided by Qin Yuanqing this time involve alloy materials, high-performance carbon fiber materials, quartz glass fibers, high-strength steel, etc. Once it is proved to be correct, it will have a profound impact on many fields in China.

Although this is an aero-engine material, the material can be used not only in aero-engines, but in many fields.

For example, high-temperature-resistant alloy materials can be used in aero-engines and other components that require high-temperature resistance, such as aerospace.

There are also high-performance carbon fiber materials, quartz glass fibers, high-strength steel, etc., which are widely used in the fields of aerospace, aviation, and navigation.

After China's reform and opening up, China has focused on economic development, and the application of engineering is mainly in the field of construction. The investment in the most basic materials and some basic theories is actually very small, because the investment in basic research is large, the output is small, and the cycle long.

So over the years, China's high-tech manufacturing has begun to be limited by basic fields. For example, the blade materials of aero-engines cannot reach the world's leading level, and their strength and life are greatly weakened.For example, the shafting strength of the aircraft is not enough, so the large aircraft cannot come out for a long time. In addition, the development of naval warships has also been affected.

It is also true that the country is now gradually increasing investment in basic fields, but all of these will take time.
