I really just want to be a scholar

Chapter 477 He has the high-end academic level of a professor in the Department of Mathematics
Jiang Quansheng looked at the report materials prepared in his laptop, and felt his throat was a little dry and his heartbeat was a little faster.

Because this second set of expressions about Riemann's conjecture is not his research result, but he bought it on a dark web, and it comes with an incomplete derivation process.

These purchased research results are all handwritten manuscripts, the writing is not standardized, and there are traces of kneading and unfolding again. Most of them are drafts of the original author's derivation process. I don't know if they were thrown into the trash and picked up by someone. , or someone hastily crumpled it into a ball and stuffed it into their pockets to steal it. In short, most of them came from wrong ways, so they put it on the dark web for sale.

The seller has a certain mathematical background, and the title states "Research Results on the Expression of Riemann's Hypothesis". One-fifth of the price was bought by Jiang Quansheng who accidentally saw it.

Both parties to the transaction on the dark web are anonymous, and Jiang Quansheng doesn't even know who the counterparty of the transaction is, let alone the original owner of these handwritten manuscripts.However, from the use of Chinese in the handwritten manuscript, it can be judged that the author should be from the Xia Kingdom.The trader is most likely a relative of the author, or a servant, student or the like.

The reason Jiang Quansheng was really moved and asked him to spend money to buy these handwritten manuscripts was that he found that the mathematical derivation process in some screenshots sold at the beginning was rigorous and profound. Obviously, the owner of the handwritten manuscripts has a very deep foundation in mathematics, which is far behind him. Jiang Quansheng is above.

A thousand dollars is nothing to Jiang Quansheng. He originally bought it with the attitude of learning from it.But when the transaction was completed and the scanned copies of these handwritten manuscripts were obtained and read carefully, Jiang Quansheng was stunned.

Although the previous part is missing, resulting in five expressions with only the recommendation process of the last four, the derivation process of the last four expressions alone is amazing enough.

Although some pages were wrong and scribbled, but overall, the derivation process is rigorous and detailed, with almost no flaws. It is really an extremely rare academic achievement in the study of Riemann's conjecture!
Does Xia Guo actually have a mathematician who has studied the Riemann Hypothesis so deeply?
In Jiang Quansheng's impression, the most famous person in Xia Guoli's Riemann's conjecture should be Qin Ke, a mathematical genius student who was rumored to be miraculous.

Qin Ke published three papers on Riemann's conjecture more than a year ago, and also proposed a new direction to solve Riemann's conjecture with core expressions. These five academic achievements are named "the second group of expressions" , is the research along the new direction pointed out by Qin Ke.

But what Jiang Quansheng can be sure of is that the original owner of these handwritten manuscripts is definitely not Qin Ke.

Because Jiang Quansheng specially found a video of Qin Ke writing the "Fourth Order Transformation Method of Lime Number Theory" with a handwriting tablet at Princeton University, and compared his handwriting. Qin Ke's handwriting is different from the handwriting on this manuscript.Jiang Quansheng even suspected that even Qin Ke might not be able to deduce such clever five expressions.

It's even more impossible to be Qin Ke's girlfriend Ning Qingyun, because the strokes are flat and vigorous, which is obviously male's handwriting, and just looking at the regular lower script, I am afraid that he has decades of handwriting skills, and it is definitely not Ning Qingyun. Girls under the age of 20 can write it.

Jiang Quansheng tried to find the original owners of these handwritten manuscripts for advice, so he tried to conduct plagiarism checks on various major academic websites in the world, including arXiv, but unexpectedly found that the content of the handwritten manuscripts had never appeared on any academic website However, it has never been seen in any papers or documents!
This means that the original author did not publish these research results at all!

Jiang Quansheng guessed that maybe the author thought the fifth expression was not perfect, and he was unwilling to publish it hastily, because a big question mark was drawn behind the fifth expression on the last page.

Another possibility is that the author didn't intend to publish it at all, but just studied it as a hobby.

After discovering this, Jiang Quansheng suddenly felt greedy to take it for himself.

Because academic achievements are often the first to be published publicly, then the ownership belongs to whoever!
The only pity is that these draft papers are missing the first part, resulting in the lack of the derivation process of the first expression. In the past few months, Jiang Quansheng has used his free time to study, but number theory is only his second assistant, not too much. Good at it, no matter how you can make it up.

Because of this, he has never dared to act rashly and publish the results in this handwritten manuscript.

But the situation is different now. The academic achievements in these handwritten manuscripts are directly related to whether he can win this year's Mathematical Breakthrough Award!

It is important to know that the Mathematics Breakthrough Award cannot be selected every year, because the number of lectures is limited, and the mathematics world has always been a paradise for geniuses. Talents come out from generation to generation. If you can receive an invitation this year, you may not have another chance next year or the year after. up.

Whether you can win the Mathematics Breakthrough Award will have a great impact on the next Cole Award. Only by winning these two awards can you be sure to win the Ramanujan Award!
Jiang Quansheng is 42 years old this year. There is no chance for the Fields Medal. At present, the biggest pursuit is to get the Ramanu Gold Award before the age of 45, because the Ramanu Gold Award is only awarded to those who are under the age of 12 before December 31 of that year. mathematician.

If you miss this village, you will really lose this store.Not to mention the great help these awards have brought to his future career, the $300 million bonus from the Mathematical Breakthrough Prize alone is enough for him to pay off his mortgage and buy the Lamborghini that he has been thinking about for a long time!

Jiang Quansheng took a deep breath, stabilized his mind, and with slightly trembling hands, he logged on to various plagiarism websites and arXiv to search, but he still couldn't find a single word about these five expressions!

This means that as long as he is willing, the ownership of this academic achievement will still fall on him.

This is Riemann's conjecture!One of the seven world-class top math problems in the millennium!

Even if it is just a set of expressions, it is enough to compare with the academic achievements of proving Polignac's conjecture!

As for the lack of a rigorous derivation process for the first expression, it is simply eliminated. Anyway, no one knows how many expressions there are in the second set of Riemann's conjecture, let alone how many expressions are needed to decipher, or... …Throw out these four expressions first, and then get the Math Breakthrough Award?

Once this thought arises, Jiang Quansheng can't control his greed at all.

As long as this report is published publicly and no plagiarism is pointed out, then he is a legitimate author!Even if the original author saw it afterwards and caused a war of words, it would be difficult to overthrow his "author" status!
The only worry is that Qin Ke may participate in the meeting. That kid has a deep research on the Riemann conjecture. If Qin Ke jumps out during the questioning session and asks some difficult questions, he will be ashamed if he can't answer them. up.

But this possibility is also very small. Let alone whether Qin Ke will come to listen to his report meeting, even if he does come, the entire derivation process of the four expressions is so long and difficult, Qin Ke may not be able to fully understand it.

After all, Qin Ke only proposed the first item of the first group of expressions in his thesis. As for whether there are expressions behind the first group of expressions, and how many expressions there are, Qin Ke has never published it. Qin Ke Instead, I turned to the twin prime number conjecture and the Polignac conjecture. I probably felt that the Riemann conjecture was too difficult, so I gave up early because there was no progress?
The more Jiang Quansheng thought about it, the more he felt that his guess was right.In other words, his plan works!

The greed in Jiang Quansheng's heart skyrocketed again. He decisively opened the backstage of arXiv and uploaded the report with the first expression removed, taking advantage of it first.

As for whether to publish it at the report meeting, Jiang Quansheng decided to wait until the last moment after thinking about it.

Anyway, the theme of the academic report meeting is allowed to be changed, as long as it is reported to the organizing committee one day in advance.

He could have seen Qin Ke's performance at the report meeting first. Qin Ke's report was on the second day, and his report was on the third day. Maybe Qin Ke's report was messed up?Then he may not need to rely on the four expressions of the Riemann conjecture to compete for the Mathematical Breakthrough Award.

——Jiang Quansheng still maintains a trace of clarity and calmness in his heart. After all, the consequences of academic plagiarism are too serious. Once the truth is revealed, his academic career will be over.The point is that he doesn't know who the original owners of these manuscripts are, and whether they have been circulated on a small scale, and he always feels a little uneasy.

Well, let's see how Qin and Ke will perform in the report first!
……

Not only Jiang Quansheng, but most of the current candidates for the Mathematics Breakthrough Award are paying attention to Qin Ke and Ning Qingyun, two rivals.Among the guests who were invited to attend the audition, there were also many bigwigs, who also expressed their concern for these two talented students from Xia Kingdom.

The most productive age for mathematicians is the period between 30 and 40 years old, and the most representative academic achievements are often born at this stage. This is exactly the Fields Medal stipulation that winners should not be older than 40 years old. Ramanu One of the reasons why the Gold Award stipulates that the winners cannot be older than 45 years old, and it also avoids relying on seniority to get top awards.

However, Qin Ke and Ning Qingyun are only less than 20 years old, and they are still far away from the golden age, but they have jointly solved the world's top [-] mathematical problems such as the Polignac conjecture, and achieved world-renowned academic achievements , How can we not let them be surprised and curious?
In the lobby of the hotel designated for the report, a 35-year-old, blond-haired Caucasian professor asked an acquaintance: "Professor Usman, did you attend the last Princeton academic report? Those two are Qin Ke and Ning. Are Qingyun's Xia Guo students really that powerful?"

Professor Usman is a professor of mathematics at the Massachusetts Institute of Technology and one of the candidates for the Breakthrough Prize. The topic of this report is "Constructing a High-Dimensional Space Regularity Structure Theory for Stochastic Partial Differential Equations."

He nodded and said: "I don't know about Ning Qingyun, but Qin Ke is really good. I only saw him once at the Princeton University academic report at the beginning of the year, but he left a deep impression on me. This is a rare He is a genius, full of passion and creativity, and in terms of number theory, algebraic geometry, partial differential equations and other fields, I think he has a high-end academic level that is not inferior to that of professors in the Department of Mathematics of our school."
