Enter the Immortal Cultivation

Wang Qi understands that for two scientists, papers are sometimes even a better way to communicate than interviews.

The paper has a format and a paradigm. Even every sentence in it has its own rules. To put it simply, this paper is actually of the same nature as the eight-legged essay, and the language is all stipulated.

But for those who understand, this kind of thing is fun to read and simple to understand.

It would be intolerable if someone used a poetic metaphor when explaining his theory.

In addition, another benefit of paper communication is that it can effectively prevent two communicators from turning the exchange of wisdom into an exchange of fists.

Now, Wang Qi is in Langde, while Lu Xiaoqian is in Piaomiao Palace. Even if the paper she wrote was completely contrary to Wang Qi's thoughts, Wang Qi would not be able to kill her with a sword from afar.

While reading the paper, Wang Qi first searched in the archives of Xianmeng. Surprisingly, this paper seems not to have been published at all.

"Unpublished? There is actually a practice of 'preprinting' in this world?"

Preprints refer to scientific research papers, scientific reports and other articles that scientific researchers voluntarily publish at academic conferences or through the Internet for the purpose of communicating with peers, but whose research results have not yet been published in formal publications.

With the advancement of communications, scientists on Earth have long been dissatisfied with the publishing speed of academic journals, believing that academic journals slow down their communication. However, the most authoritative “peer review system” on earth is now mostly based on journals. Not through journals. The credibility of the paper may not be high.

However, the publication speed of paper journals is still too slow.

Therefore, scholars on Earth have produced so-called preprints. Preprints are not considered official publications and are generally not protected. Since it has not been peer reviewed. Therefore, the credibility of preprints will not be higher than that of journal documents.

The biggest advantage of preprints is “speed”

However, this advantage should only be apparent on earth. China's academic system is completely different from Earth's. Since technological black boxes are easier to form, Fantasyland has already taken on the responsibility of communication one step ahead of paper journals.

In Fantasyland, all papers can be uploaded after simple review and without logical errors. Once uploaded, anyone can pay to read it.

Xianmeng's archive itself has the characteristics of arXiv, an electronic preprint library established by the Los Alamos National Laboratory in the United States.

"That's weird. Why do we have to communicate in private?"

Wang Qi read Lu Xiaoqian's letter and essay in one breath. Then he shook his head: "That's it. Multiple worlds are decoherent...Does Senior Sister Lu actually believe this? No wonder she didn't publish it and just discussed it with others."

The discussion on "why the wave function collapses" actually seems to be of little significance now. To a certain extent, this debate has become an air-to-air argument that is divorced from objective matter - although the logic of this argument is very strict and is based on mathematics. However, no matter how much you argue, it cannot be denied that they lack factual support and experimental verification.

and. No matter which explanation you hold, it will not affect scientists' understanding of subsequent and deeper theories. This is the most important.

For people at Lu Xiaoqian's level, this kind of argument can probably only be described as a kind of "leisure".

No, the "busy" she said was probably not a polite word. She must be really busy now. Her master, Po Li Zhenren, is said to be the most severe monk. She wanted to take some time off from her busy schedule, but it was probably going to be difficult.

In particular, this paper has some conflicts with the mainstream thinking of Piao Miao Palace.

"It seems like it's not easy for anyone." Wang Qi shook his head and wrote back.

Of course he would not refuse to communicate with colleagues.

And sometimes. Some "edge and corner" discussions can also spark "sparks of thought" and ignite some "great inspirations"!

……………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………… …………

While Wang Qi was communicating with his new pen pal, a more intense ideological collision was brewing in Wanfamen thousands of miles away.

New and old, two ideas.

In the secret training place of Wanfamen. A group of monks were communicating nervously. The number of people participating in the training was several times greater than before. Different from a month ago, now the participants in this training are not limited to people below the Golden Core stage.

Most of the disciples participating in the training here are at the Yuan Shen stage.

Xiang Qi has long been afraid to sneak in secretly. At this time, Su Junyu simply forgot about food and sleep, thinking about the "incomplete" and "incomplete" issues day and night.

Bo Xiaofeng always felt that his old friend was going crazy. He tapped his sister's shoulder: "Sister, I always feel...that this kid is a little abnormal lately."

"It's not normal...it shouldn't be..." Bo Xiaoya's expression was a little unnatural: "Isn't it said everywhere now that there is something wrong with the idea of ​​being the master..."

There's something wrong with the Lord's idea. Perhaps the idea of ​​completeness and judgment issues is wrong.

Those Yuanshen stage monks who came later were mostly young monks who were in the ascending stage. They were very talented and had studied for a longer period of time than the junior brothers and sisters at the Golden Core stage. They had a deeper accumulation and were very good at arithmetic. The understanding is also deeper.

Many of them have doubts about the idea of ​​being the master.

However, the idea that arithmetic is incomplete and undecidable is still too shocking.

If Li Zong proves that the system of arithmetic is incomplete and finds out the imperfections of arithmetic, then most of the arithmetic in Lian Zong's concept is also incomplete. Li Zong and Li Zong are just a battle of ideas and ideas. In their eyes, arithmetic is still just arithmetic.

After all, arithmetic is the inherent logic of heaven and earth, and it exists objectively. There is only one math school in the world.

Even those who leave the sect may not be able to accept the so-called "incompleteness".

Still, seeds of doubt were planted.

"How is it possible...how is it possible that arithmetic is incomplete?"

Bo Xiaofeng smiled reluctantly, his tone already filled with anxiety. Heirloom of arithmetic from the Bo family. For him, arithmetic is something that goes deep into his bones, almost like a belief.

This is also the reason why people here are panicked.

Many people have vaguely guessed something, but they dare not think about it in depth.

Bo Xiaoya shook her head: "Brother, it's not good for you to be like this... Really. Arithmetic is the manifestation of the great road, and it will not be reversed for you..."

Bo Xiaofeng interrupted Bo Xiaoya rudely: "This is not... this is not the problem. If arithmetic is incomplete, then what can I do? What is the path we seek?"

"Junior Brother Bo, don't you think this can actually be considered a good thing?" Perhaps because Bo Xiaofeng spoke a little too loudly, a pale young monk suddenly intervened in the conversation between the brother and sister.

Bo Xiaofeng hurriedly saluted and said: "Senior Brother Gao...are you okay?"

This person is none other than Gao Jiyang, the chief disciple of the previous generation of Wanfa Sect. He just stepped into the realm of Yuanshen this year, and he is also the first batch of Yuanshen stage disciples selected for "intensive training".

However, this person may have too high a level of understanding. Just a few days ago, I seemed to have thought of something unintentionally, and an idea flashed in my mind. But at that moment, his thoughts conflicted with his own magic power, causing him to vomit blood on the spot.

"It's not a serious problem." Gao Jiyang smiled: "I have finally adjusted. That mouthful of blood also vomited out the obsession in my chest. I figured it out. Why can't arithmetic be incomplete? Why can't it be incomplete? Is it undecidable? Besides, if the calculation master’s idea comes true, it may not be a good thing for arithmetic.”

Bo Xiaofeng was speechless. In fact, no one has been able to prove that arithmetic is complete and decidable. Even if the bettor "believes", he can only say "I think so" and honestly use his own resources and connections to promote the proof of this proposition.

"It's good for arithmetic..." Bo Xiaoya's eyes widened and she was very puzzled.

This kind of thing that completely negates the foundation of arithmetic is still a good thing for arithmetic?

Gao Jiyang smiled and asked, "Do you know the law of infinity of prime numbers?"

The infinite number of prime numbers is one of the oldest propositions in number theory. A prime number, also known as a prime number, is divisible by no other divisors except one and itself. Two is the smallest prime number. The distribution of prime numbers itself becomes increasingly sparse as the number increases. The larger a number is, the less likely it is to be prime. So, when the number is large enough, will this possibility become zero? Will there be no more prime numbers once it exceeds a certain limit?

Most mathematicians today know that there are actually infinite prime numbers. They can figure this out very easily. Medieval mathematicians have already proved this problem. There are as many prime numbers as there are natural numbers, both are infinite, and both are an "Aleph zero".

"If prime numbers were not infinite, then most of today's 'number theory' would not have appeared. And other ideas, ideas, and tools that emerged from studying this 'number' would not have appeared either." Gao Jiyang said: "If it were complete If the nature and decidability are really proven, our Wan Dharma School will have no meaning of existence.”

"This just means that we are about to touch upon the final theorem in arithmetic." Bo Xiaofeng said: "Senior Brother Gao, there is something wrong with your statement. If you give up the idea of ​​seeking Tao for the sake of the continuation of Wan Dharma Sect, then this is Putting the cart before the horse.”

Wan Dharma Gate, and even the entire Immortal Way of Modern Dharma, exists in order to reach the final "Tao".

Gao Jiyang asked back: "Junior Brother Bo, do you think we have reached the 'final' point now?"

Bo Xiaofeng still wanted to refute. But at this moment, a loud laugh spread throughout the secret place.

"I know! I know! Hahahahaha! I know!" (To be continued ~^~)

PS: There will definitely be a third update, but it will be around one o'clock.

If you can't stand it, please get up and watch it again tomorrow morning.
