The end of technology.

Ning Zi fell into a trance looking at the 290-93-page paper that had just been completed, including 38 lemmas and [-] theorems.

"Meow, why are you in a daze? Although it is said that the master did not write this thesis at one time, but had a research process, for the master, this is his smallest achievement, and it is really not worth mentioning. Therefore, Hurry up and register an account first! Don't waste time! What are you doing so much? How are you doing big things?"

"Uh... well..."

The former owner of this cat is probably a god, right?Ning Yu couldn't help thinking in his heart.

Chapter 006 Humans Can't and Shouldn't Be So Stupid

Ning Yu felt how refreshing it was to have a good mentor.

Although Lord March has a poisonous mouth and always talks about "you stupid human being", whether it is in a dream or when guiding him at this moment, he has shown a thousand percent patience.

In other words, this kitten probably has infinite patience.

How to register your own account, how to fill out complicated forms, how to choose the type of paper, how to write the title, abstract, and keywords, and why you should write it this way, and how to design a cover letter so that journal editors and reviewers can see it Its first glance interested in the whole paper...

In the middle, he also took the trouble to answer various other questions.

such as:

"When I was in Huaqing, I listened to my classmates chatting. If the paper wants to be published in a good journal, it must be recommended by a strong supervisor, or a reliable institution, otherwise the editor of the journal might throw the paper in the trash without reading it. .I wrote about the closed agricultural machinery factory in my work unit, and the corresponding author still left his name. Will people really read my paper?"

"Meow, who do you look down on? Is there a stronger mentor than me in this world? Let me tell you, no matter which journal you submit to, the editor will delete the paper even if he dares to read it, and he will be done." Humans cannot and should not be so stupid."

Lord March's answer was very imposing and powerful, at least for Ning Ruo.

Of course, a good mentor is more reflected in the fact that when the paper is signed, whether it is the corresponding author or the first author, in March, he insisted that Ning Ru be cheeky to write his own name.

Really, this kind of mentor, Ning Ruo, felt that there could be no second place in this world!

"Meow, I'm not a stupid human, do I need that little fake name? It's no exaggeration to say that plucking the hair on my body is more valuable than this paper. Oh, Mama Kaba!"

Such conversations are often confusing, as if at this moment, Ning Ruo couldn't help but ask: "Mama Kaba, what do you mean?"

"Meow, it doesn't have a fixed meaning, it's just a very ordinary tone particle. You can understand it as Smecta in Korean, or Asi, Ollie! It probably represents my excitement at this time, and stupid humans can't be at all. See how much fun creating an owner can be for a lovable, kind-hearted, yet responsible conscious kitty to be a feline cat! Meow…”

"Well, Lord March, who are you talking about the master...?"

"Meow...don't pay attention to these details, after all, the reason why the master can be the master is because he is not a stupid human being, but that is a long story, and you have not yet reached the time you need to know about it. Click send now, congratulations You, you have finally taken the first step towards becoming a great scholar!"

Do you make a big deal out of academics?

Ning Ruo scratched his head, this name is a bit strange, but obviously this is not the time to care about these things.But after reading this sentence from Kitten, he moved the mouse with a reverent expression and clicked the submit button.

Then watch the background status of the paper he submitted changes directly.

"manuscript with editor"

Is this a successful delivery?

"and then?"

"Meow, count the jet lag, the stupid editor-in-chief and the editors in the journal are still enjoying their dinner, don't expect those lazy people to turn on the computer to deal with work at this time. As for you, the next The task, of course, is to keep learning. You haven’t read this paper yet, don’t just think about studying while you sleep, the daytime is just as important. I’ve prepared a series of reinforcement training exercises for you, about turbulence!”

"Meow, so go ahead and do the quiz now! You don't want to be the professors who are a little bit smarter, live a lot longer than you, and especially like to test and teach people. When they ask you questions, you behave like a Question three, don’t you know? So, hurry up and start moving your brain. The premise of doing things is that your own strength can make you fearless. From now on, you have to work harder and don’t waste a single second. Got it?”

Ning Ruo nodded fiercely.

Nice, that happens to be what he does best.

To consolidate, strengthen and flexibly use the systematic knowledge in his mind by doing questions is the most important method for him to learn.The educational conditions in Luoyu County are there, and without the guidance of famous teachers, it can only rely on this.

So in the next moment, Ning Yu opened the file sent by Kitten through QQ without any complaints...

Sure enough, there are a lot of questions, and each question is so complicated...

Ning Yu suddenly felt a little dizzy.

……

Princeton, New Jersey, USA.

This city on the east coast of the United States is famous for the university of the same name.

As one of the most famous private research universities in the world, Princeton Institute of Advanced Mathematics is its most advantageous major.Some people even use "the hometown of mathematicians" to express their reverence for this school.

Of course, Princeton University certainly deserves these accolades.

In its 200-year history, it has trained 69 Nobel Prize winners, [-] Fields Medal winners, and [-] Turing Award winners.This probably also shows that if you want to get good grades in the school, you must first open it long enough.

Without time for precipitation, it is naturally impossible to cultivate so many talents.

Ning Zhi, who was still writing questions in the dark, saw that the website of the submission system given to him by Mr. March was "Annals of Mathematics", but he really didn't know what this journal represented.

For example, the journal was founded in 1874 and is currently the oldest mathematics journal in the world; for example, this journal is jointly published by Princeton University and its Institute of Advanced Mathematics, ranking first among the four top mathematics journals in the world; for example, lecturers in general universities If you can publish a paper in this journal, you can basically avoid detours for several years and directly evaluate the professor...

If the operation is good, you can even directly get a lot of projects and get a lot of names, such as Changjiang Scholars, Young Scientists, National Outstanding Youth...

Yes, that's the beauty of Annals of Mathematics.

This journal of mathematics is published every two months, and generally no more than [-] papers are included each year.The papers published in this journal by Chinese mathematicians can be counted on both hands.

Not to mention a student, even if professors and doctoral supervisors from many countries want to publish their articles in this journal, it is not a simple matter.

As Ning Yu said before, in general, the moment his paper was seen by the editor-in-chief, it was destined to be directly dragged into the computer's recycle bin, and then emptied directly at some point.

In fact, as the editor-in-chief of "Annals of Mathematics", Robert Keney does exactly this.

What are you kidding? !

A guy from an unknown agricultural machinery factory in China solved the existence and smoothness of the solution of the Navier-Stokes equation?Then he may be able to solve the NP complete problem directly by himself!

How did this paper appear directly in his system?Don't the editors have to work?

Even at the moment of operation, the editor-in-chief was still muttering: "Oh, it really has to be the country that can invent perpetual motion machines every day. How can the civil sciences in other places find the NS equation? ?!"

Chapter 007 Rigorous, too rigorous!

One of the reasons why life makes people nostalgic must be its uncertainty.

Even in a life where you can see the head at a glance, there may be accidents that interfere with the normal life trajectory.

It was as if Robert Kenny had encountered a little accident in his life at this time.

When he put the mouse on the deleted button and clicked it without hesitation, the mouse suddenly bounced.

This expression seems inaccurate, it should be said that the mouse pointer on the screen suddenly bounced.Obviously this kind of thing doesn't happen often, so Robert Kenny was stunned for a moment, then moved the mouse firmly to the delete button again, and then bounced it off again.

"Selina, come in and get me a mouse, there may be a problem with the mouse on my work computer. By the way, bring a cup of coffee in by the way, as before, with an extra milk." Robert Kenny pressed Get off the communicator on the desk and command.

Standing there watching the beauty stoop and pout to change the mouse, sipping a good coffee, put Robert Kenny in a better mood.This is probably the reason why he has been reluctant to switch to a wireless keyboard and mouse. In a boring life, he has to find some small surprises for himself.

Modern technology is good, but it always makes people miss many beautiful moments.

When he was at his desk again and clicked the delete button with his new mouse, the paper soon disappeared from his sight.

Sure enough, it was the mouse problem. The quality of this batch of consumables does not seem to be very good. If I remember correctly, it should have only been used for less than half a year.

Thinking about whether there is something or not, Robert Kenny began to pay attention to the next paper that needs to be reviewed by him, but he was a little surprised after the refresh.Because the title is again "Proof of existence and smoothness of solutions of Navier Stokes equations".

what's the situation?Mathematicians are suddenly interested in the Navier-Stokes equations?

However, when he saw the author and the keywords, Robert Kenny couldn't help rubbing his eyes.

It's like... or the one just now?

Many people have forgotten that the United States is not only the largest country, but also a militaristic country.Just like Robert Kenny, not only a professor at the Institute of Advanced Mathematics in Princeton, editor-in-chief of "Annals of Mathematics", but also a devout Protestant.

No matter how religious people are, they are often still wicked.hacker?coincide?Or the will of God?

Many may have slipped through his mind at this moment, but fortunately he finally decided to take a look, first look at the summary and summary.

So Robert Kenny frowned and opened Ning Ruo's paper.

Well, the format is very standard, not like something written by someone who doesn't know anything.

Hey, there is something in this abstract; the introduction seems to be well written; the literature review, huh, this person is very confident, writing so many pages on such a grand topic, and only citing three articles, successfully proved that Navi - Does the Stokes equation have a smooth, unique solution?

Although the three cited articles are indeed related classic papers, the problems that need to be solved in order to prove this equation are massive.

Wait, after watching it for so long, it seems to be reading smoothly?It doesn't look like a paper sent by a scholar from a non-English-speaking country at all. He didn't even find a single grammatical error, and every sentence of the paper used a very standard sentence pattern.Especially the conjunctions, he couldn't pick out a single fault in his use, which also made the writing appear extremely logically rigorous.

It is no exaggeration to say that although he has never heard of the address and unit on the paper, at least the level of writing is definitely no less than that of professors in those well-known universities in the third world.No, even more than many American professors.

Robert Kane subconsciously glanced at the author's name, NingJie. After confirming that he had never seen this name anywhere else, he pondered for a while, and finally clicked on the main body of the paper.

He was going to take a look first.

Hey, the lemma proposed at the beginning is very imaginative. The proof process still maintains a very rigorous style. Wait, shouldn't Green's method be used to solve it here?Huh?This is a new way of thinking...

At this sight, Robert Kenny fell, until...

"Cough, Mr. Robert, you asked me to remind me that Mr. Kevin invited you to lunch at noon to discuss the issue of the next issue."

"Ah..." Robert Kenny looked up at his secretary blankly, only to realize that the time had unknowingly reached [-]:[-].God, God knows how long it has been since he read the article and saw that he was so obsessed that he even forgot the time...

There is no doubt that this Chinese named NingJie must be a great mathematician.

He dare not say that the part of this paper he has read must be correct, because his talent is not high, and his research direction is not Navier-Stokes equations, or even partial differential equations, but he can To be sure, this is a paper of extremely high academic quality.

To be the editor-in-chief of "Annals of Mathematics", Robert Keney obviously cannot be the idiot in March's mouth, and he still has the most basic academic appreciation ability.

He is even now certain that all the accidents that occurred when he decided to delete the paper were God's reminders not to miss this gem.

"Help me call Kevin and tell him that I have more important things and I have to miss the appointment. Also, I'm going to visit a professor this afternoon, call me directly if you have anything. By the way, help me Print this paper, print three copies, and bind it. I'm going to make a quick call."

……

"Hello, Professor Higginson, where are you? Office? Oh, that's great, please do stay there and wait for me, yes, something very important. I hope you can be a reviewer for a paper, no No no, this is not an ordinary paper, really, it does not require you to put water, it is really different, this paper solves the Navier-Stokes equation, maybe the author can use this paper to get A $100 million award from the Clay Institute of Mathematics!"

"No, Professor Higginson, I'm not joking, on the contrary, I'm very serious at the moment! You'll know when you see this paper, and I promise you won't waste your time. You can just read two pages and decide whether to Accept the invitation. Of course, Professor Elliott of the Clay Institute will also be one of the reviewers. After all, you are all authoritative scholars in this field. I believe he will agree after receiving my email. ."

"Well, please be sure to wait for me, I'll be there in 15 minutes. Believe me, this paper definitely deserves all the praise. Author? Sorry, take it easy, wait until I pass, how about?"

……

This is probably one of the benefits of being the editor-in-chief of a top math journal. Looking for reviewers can even go straight to the door without going through an email!After all, this five-kilometer radius is definitely the place with the highest density of mathematicians in the world.

Chapter 008 Messaging Speed ​​in the Circle

Huaxia, Beijing, Yanbei University, Beijing International Mathematical Research Center.

It was already 12:30 in the middle of the night, but the lights were still on in a second-floor office in the yard.

At this time, Fan Zhenhua was sorting out the report on his desk. As the chairman of the Huaxia Mathematical Society, he was invited to participate in the National Mathematical Logic Conference to be held at Huaxia Beijing Normal University tomorrow, and after the opening ceremony to do a presentation on the recent years of Chinese mathematics research Progress report.

If it weren't for the fact that Beijing Normal University is too close, and it is the first time in recent years to hold such a relatively large-scale academic conference on mathematics, Fan Zhenhua would not want to go.He is also very busy recently. Recently, the Huaxia Mathematical Society is organizing the first BRICS mathematician conference to strengthen the connection between the BRICS countries at the academic level.

This is the most important international academic conference held by the Huaxia Mathematical Society as the organizer in recent years. As the chairman of the society, I am naturally very busy, and I have to pay attention to the big and small things.So this kind of meeting report that is not too important, just pick the night before to work overtime to familiarize yourself with it in advance.

Especially at this time, everything is quiet and the work efficiency is extremely high.

"Clang clang..."

Very suddenly, Fan Zhenhua's cell phone rang on the table, and he also diverted his attention from the report in front of him.

Fan Zhenhua frowned. He was going to hang up the phone directly and mute it, but after glancing at the caller's number, a curious expression appeared on his face. He simply put down the report in his hand and picked up the phone.

"Hey!"

"Hi, Fan, I'm sorry, it must be night for you guys? I hope I didn't disturb your rest."

"Yes, Professor Higginson, but it's okay, I'm used to going to bed late. Is there something urgent?"

"Haven't you opened your mailbox today? Fan?"

"Well, yes, it's been too busy these two days. Did something major happen?" Fan Zhenhua joked casually, pushed aside the report thrown on the table, and turned the notebook on the table to his side. Drag it, then pick up the mouse, open the browser, and prepare to enter the mailbox.

"No wonder I didn't get your call. Well, it's like this, Fan, yesterday around this time, the editor-in-chief of the Annals of Mathematics, Robert Kenny, sent me an article in person, asking me to be a reviewer. This article may solve the smoothness and uniqueness problems of the Navier-Stokes equations."

Hearing this, Fan Zhenhua couldn't help but said: "Wait, I remember that Robert didn't study the Navier-Stokes equation before?"

"That's true. But under his strong recommendation, I spent a day to study this paper. Although there are many issues that I haven't figured out yet, I still need to spend some time to interpret and verify, but my intuition tells me that , this paper may really solve that problem."

"Ah?" Fan Zhenhua was lost for a moment, and the hand holding the mouse stopped.

The partial differential equation represented by the Navier-Stokes equation is Fan Zhenhua's research field. Of course, he knows how meaningful it is to prove the universality of this equation in the field of number theory.

In fact, this is one of the seven new century mathematical problems that the Millennium Clay Mathematics Institute has offered rewards to the world. It is consistent with other difficult problems such as NP-complete problems, four-color problems, Poincaré conjecture, and Riemann hypothesis. Both are $100 million.

So far, only the Poincaré conjecture has been completely solved by Russian genius mathematicians among the seven major problems of the millennium. The four-color problem has only been verified at the computer level for the time being, but there has not been much progress in number theory.
