Chapter 235 Great Inheritance

The professor glared at his student with some resentment.

"What do you know, that's Grothendieck!" The professor said excitedly, waving his arms, "Remember well, throughout the history of mathematics, ancient Greek mathematicians were named after Euclid, Archimedes, and Diophane. Figure three people had the greatest influence; in the first half of the 17th century, Descartes and Fermat were tied together, and in the second half, Newton and Leibniz were juxtaposed. From the later development of history, Leibniz had a greater influence on mathematics, but Newton It has a greater impact on physics; Euler in the first half of the 18th century, Gauss from the end of the 18th century to the first half of the 19th century, and Riemann and Poincaré in the second half of the 19th century! By the first half of the 20th century, it belonged to Hilbert , and the second half is this Alexander Grothendieck!"

"And if we have to choose one of the greatest mathematicians of the 20th century, it must be Grothendieck!" the professor taught his students earnestly.

Grothendieck, the true god of algebraic geometry, opened any modern algebraic geometry textbook or monograph, and would frequently see terms such as Groth-topology, Groth-cohomology, Groth-ring, etc. His theory feeds today's Nearly half of the mathematicians in the world, this is the evaluation of Alexander Grothendieck. Mathematicians look up to this maverick man with the sunshine that Christians look at the Pope.

Born in Berlin in 1928, he fled to Paris with his father after Adolf came to power; when he started reading, in his mathematics class, he could distinguish what is deep, what is superficial, and what is is right and what is wrong.He found that the math problems in textbooks were always repetitive and often isolated from those that could give them meaning. "This is the book's problem, not my problem"-perhaps when he said this sentence In the second grade of middle school, but unlike the second graders in the second grade, the second grader can't change the wrong world, but Grothendieck can change mathematics.

While studying at the University of Montpellier, he rediscovered the concept of measure theory and Lebesgue integral; after graduation, under the guidance of his teacher Shura, he returned to Paris to find Henri Chia, an important figure of the Bourbaki school. At that time, there he met first-class mathematicians such as Claude Chavalet, Jean Delsa, Jean Diudogne, Roger Goldman, Laurent Schwartz and André Weil , and joined the Bourbaki School, and pushed the Bourbaki School to its peak.

MIT's Michael Ardin says that in the late 1950s and 1960s, "the mathematical world needed to adapt to him", a manifesto made in Secondary [-] once became a reality; people visit his institute but see no books , Grothendieck said, "We don't read books, we write books ourselves", he finally got rid of the wrong math books.

In the 60s, Grothendieck revolutionized algebraic geometry and published more than a dozen tomes.Established a grand and complete "prototype theory".His work can be called the pinnacle of algebraic geometry, and his work is known as the "Bible of Grothendieck".His theory played a role.On the basis of concept theory, mathematicians have achieved one amazing achievement after another: for the first time, he gave the algebraic proof of the famous Riemann-Loch theorem.

It resulted in the following events:

In 1973, Deligne proved the Weil conjecture (won the 1978 Fields Medal);
In 1983, G.Faltings proved the Model conjecture (won the Fields Medal in 1986);
In 1995, Wiles proved the Taniyama-Shimura conjecture, and then solved the 350-year-old Fermat's last theorem (won the 1996 Fields Special Award).

These achievements represent the highest level of contemporary mathematics, enough to shine through the ages. Many geniuses and Fields Medals emerged in algebraic geometry in the 20th century, but there is only one God, and that is Grothendieck.

Affected by his father's death in a concentration camp during World War II and his mother's post-depression, Grothendieck was also a radical ecology and environmentalist; for this reason he rejected the Fields Medal and the Craford Prize, And resigned from the French Institute of Advanced Studies because part of the funding came from the Ministry of Defense; took away the microphone of the Lucia mathematician Pontryagin at the International Congress of Mathematicians because his report involved the problem of missile tracking aircraft .

In 73, he left Paris and moved to the countryside. In 90, he left all his manuscripts and completely left the world of mathematics to live in seclusion, living a life isolated from the world.

This scene appeared in every corner of the venue, and various professors taught young mathematicians to let them know the identity of the old man.

And all the scholars who knew the old man's identity for the first time showed a look of shock, their mouths were wide open, and they could stuff an egg into it.

None of the mathematicians who knew Grothendieck would have thought that the Pope of Mathematics would reappear at the Mathematics Conference after decades!
You must know that Grothendieck did not participate in the historical report meeting where Wiles proved Fermat's Last Theorem.

And now he came all the way to Huaxia to attend Qin Yuanqing's mathematics report meeting.And with the support of his disciple Deligne, he stepped onto the podium.

President Chen and a group of professors from Shuimu University were very excited and trembling. They didn't expect that Grothendieck came out of the mountain again after decades and came to Shuimu University. What an honor it is!
Qin Yuanqing also recognized Grothendieck at this time. He did not expect that the Pope of Mathematics would come to his report meeting. Qin Yuanqing found it incredible. Not enough to entice him to come.

"Sir, you are old. Welcome to Shuimu University. Your arrival makes Shuimu University flourish. Likewise, your arrival fills me with surprise and disbelief!" Qin Yuanqing walked up quickly and supported the old man .

Although the two have different skin colors, different races, and come from different countries, in a sense, this has transcended skin color, race, and national boundaries. This is the top wisdom and wealth of mankind.

With the achievements made by Grothendieck, Qin Yuanqing at this time can only look up to him!
Even if he wins a few of the world's seven major math problems in the millennium, it is estimated that he can barely be on an equal footing with the old man, and it's not necessarily, but barely!

"Young man, I haven't seen a young mathematician as talented as you for a long time. Deligne told me about you before. I don't know why I became curious about you. It's a pity that you didn't go to France. Didn't see you!" Grothendieck spoke slowly, but clearly.

"Your performance is excellent. Deligne said that you are the most talented mathematician he has ever seen, and you may become the next me!" Grothendieck smiled kindly.

"Mr. Deligne praised him!" Qin Yuanqing said hastily.

"Hehe, but I never think so, everyone is unique, Grothendieck is Grothendieck, you are you, there is no need to be the next one!" Grothendieck smiled gently: "If you Seeing you for a few years, I think I would be happy to accept you as my student! But now I don't have much time, God will take me away anytime!"

"Originally, I wanted it to accompany me to meet God, but now I want to give it to you, maybe it can help you a little during your future travels!" Grothendieck said.

More than 2000 people in the auditorium were stunned. Everyone did not expect Grothendieck to say this. . . . . .this. . . . . . .

"It's the teacher's manuscript inside, and the teacher didn't want to show it to us even if we wanted to!" Deligne said enviously.

uproar~~
More than 2000 people in the auditorium were shocked. None of them thought that Grothendieck would give his manuscript to Qin Yuanqing. Although they didn't know what manuscript was in the box, it was Grothendieck's manuscript. , very precious, with very high research value.

If anyone can get their hands on one of these sheets, it's all good as a family heirloom!

"Sir... this... this is too precious!" Qin Yuanqing was also shocked. After all, as the world's top mathematician, Qin Yuanqing knew very well how precious the manuscripts of great mathematicians are.

He usually writes down something on the draft paper when something pops into his head. Unfortunately, his train of thought is broken, and these drafts are kept by him. Sometimes he will take them out for research, and maybe he will come up with something.

"Accept it! I'm an 85-year-old man, half of my body has been buried in the ground. Sometimes I even hear God calling my name when I'm sleeping! It stays by my side, it's useless!" Gero Tendik smiled and said, "If you want to repay me, you can study Hodge's conjecture when you have time in the future. I also studied it for a while back then, and some results were obtained. Unfortunately, something happened, which made me no longer want to study it. After all, I am a little regretful! "

Hodge's conjecture, one of the seven major mathematical problems of the millennium, is a major unsolved problem in algebraic geometry.Hodge proposed that it is a conjecture about the algebraic topology of non-singular complex algebraic varieties and its geometry expressed by polynomial equations that define subvarieties.On nonsingular complex projective algebraic varieties, any Hodge class is a rational linear combination of algebraically closed classes.

No one thought that Grothendieck had actually studied Hodge's conjecture, and there were research results.

"Sir, I will definitely solve Hodge's conjecture!" Qin Yuanqing took the box and said solemnly.

At this time, Wiles applauded first, Faltings also applauded, and then the applause seemed to be contagious, and spread quickly, everyone applauded, none of them thought that they were lucky enough to witness this scene and witness history .

Yes, vaguely, they only felt that they had witnessed a inheritance in the field of mathematics, a great inheritance!
