From University Lecturer to Chief Academician

Chapter 205 Follow-up of the report, Fields' discussion, topological phase transition and topol

After Wang Hao explained the difficulties in the proof process, the review team confirmed in advance that his proof was perfect.

All reports are closed.

When the applause rang out at the venue, many people had mixed feelings. Some felt they had witnessed history, some lamented Wang Hao's youth and achievements, and some still felt a little unbelievable when the NS equation was proved.

Tian Junganfu did not want to accept the results, but the proof was already there, and the explanation of the reporting process left him with nothing to say.

Math is like that.

What is right is right and what is wrong is wrong.

After the intense applause passed, the report was not completely over, and the rest of the time was for Q\u0026A.

Although the review team confirmed his report, there were still some people who didn't understand the logical question, so they stood up and asked questions.

Wang Hao also answered patiently.

The questions asked at this time were basically the most difficult to understand in the proof process. He patiently explained the most difficult parts several times in a row, allowing others to understand clearly.

Qiu Chengwen sat on the seat, and while listening to Wang Hao's explanation, he said, "His lectures are really talented. Every time I listen to his lectures, I feel that the lectures are very clear and easy to understand. This is very remarkable. .”

"Indeed."

Martin Haier was right next to Qiu Chengwen, and several judges were arranged to sit together, "The person who came with Wang Hao yesterday also explained, what he said was almost the same as what Wang Hao said, but the same thing, I I didn’t understand after listening to it for a long time.”

"Maybe this is because of the different understanding of the content? Or other reasons? Anyway, I feel that he has no talent for lecturing."

"I feel the same way, maybe it's because he's not speaking clearly?"

Someone in the back row suddenly followed.

Luo Dayong was sitting in the third row. He quickly lifted up his collar, but he didn't want others to recognize him.

He was kind enough to tell others about it, and he got such an evaluation in the end?

How embarrassing!

It didn't take long for Wang Hao to answer questions, only about half an hour.

He stepped off the stage.

Many people in the front row greeted them, Martin Haier was at the front, shook hands with Wang Hao and said, "I still can't believe it, the NS equation problem has been solved like this?"

"Congratulations, this may be the biggest pearl in the field of partial differential equations!"

Others came over and said congratulations.

Wang Hao smiled and said, "Isn't it still undecided?"

"If such a successful report cannot confirm the results, we can doubt the capabilities of those institutions." Qiu Chengwen said, "On behalf of the Mathematics Center of Shuimu University, I approve your proof."

"It will be soon, don't worry."

Bruce Pulitzer came over, "Believe me, within a week, even the Clay Institute of Mathematics will accept your proof."

He changed the subject and said, "Actually, yesterday, I considered discussing with you to add some content to the proof before publishing it, but now I don't think it's necessary. Your paper is perfect, but others didn't go deep into it. Having studied complexity issues, it’s just not easy for me to understand.”

Wang Hao asked curiously, "Did you understand everything?"

"this……"

Pulitzer smiled awkwardly. He really wanted to understand the whole content, but he lost his mind when he listened to it, and then he couldn't understand it at all. He turned his head and looked at Terence Tao, "This is Terry's opinion. "

Tao Zhexuan also came over to shake hands with Wang Hao, and talked sincerely, "What surprised me the most was not that you completed the ns equation, but that you were able to succeed in two different fields, which is very difficult."

"Next, do you have any research plans? Will you continue the research on partial differential equations, or number theory?"

Everyone else has seen it too.

Wang Hao hesitated for a while, and said, "I'm very interested in algebraic geometry recently, and I may be engaged in research in this area."

Tao Zhexuan opened his mouth and said after a long time, "That's the third field, I'm looking forward to it."

Qiu Chengwen suddenly said, "You can come to Shuimu University. Kocher is an expert in algebraic geometry. You can communicate together."

Wang Hao said with a smile, "I hope to rely on my own research in this field, so that Mr. Bilkar hopes to come to Xihai University to do follow-up research with me."

"Uh~~"

Everyone else laughed out loud.

Qiu Chengwen was stunned for a moment and then laughed, but he couldn't help feeling a sense of crisis in his heart.

It was hard for him to persuade Bilkar to work at Shuimu University, but why not be dug into Xihai University just because of the content of his research?

When other people say this kind of thing, they just listen to it and laugh.

Wang Hao, it's hard to say!

...

The end of the report is the exchange of scholars.

The report meeting is not just a report meeting, but also a good opportunity to communicate with scholars in the field. Donggang University arranged three consecutive exchange meetings, and other scholars were also invited to give reports.

Wang Hao's report will be held as a professional academic conference in the field of partial differential equations.

This is an academic event.

The participants in the follow-up report meeting, including four Fields winners, and dozens of top scholars in the field of partial differential equations, have a higher gold content than the international conferences in the field of partial differential equations.

Wang Hao was still the focus of attention, chatting with the scholars one by one. It was not until dinner in the evening that he had time to meet Claudio Proccesi.

Prochesi is the head of the awards committee of the International Mathematical Society. He first congratulated Wang Hao on his NS equation report, and then said, "I have a hunch that you will succeed, and it's just the beginning. You will become the youngest Fields winner."

The "youngest" he said meant setting a record for the winning age of a Fields winner.

The youngest winner before was the French mathematician Jean-Pierre Serre, whose "condensed algebraic layer" and "algebraic geometry and analytic geometry" created by him have become the new "classic" documents of modern mathematics.

For his outstanding achievements in algebraic topology, Jean-Pierre Serre won the Fields Medal at the age of less than 28.

The current Wang Hao is even younger. When Fields presented the award, he had just turned 26 years old, which can be said to be unprecedented in age.

For Prochesi's admiration, Wang Hao politely thanked him, and then asked, "Mr. Prochesi, you are here to talk to me about the mathematics conference, right?"

"certainly."

Prochesi said, "I saw the email you sent. I can hardly agree with the reasons you said, but you decided not to come. There must be your reasons. We just don't want to go through another Grigory Pere Elman."

His voice was very sincere.

Grigory Perelman is a figure who has caused headaches for the International Mathematical Society. He completed the proof of the Poincaré conjecture, but just posted the proof on the Internet.

Many international institutions recognized Perelman's proof, and he won the Fields Medal for it. However, Perelman refused to participate in the International Congress of Mathematicians and directly rejected the Fields Medal.

Not only did he reject the Fields Medal, but he also rejected invitations from many prestigious schools, one million dollar prize money, and so on.

In order to send the Fields Medal to Perelman, the International Mathematical Society even sent people to find his house, but Perelman refused to let him in. They threw the medal in from the window, and the medal quickly They were thrown out, and even the windows were sealed later.

Perelman's story is really interesting.

Many mathematicians have weird personalities, especially top mathematicians.

Before coming here, Prochesi felt that Wang Hao might also be weird. He has completed Goldbach's conjecture and ns equation problems consecutively, and he is definitely a super genius.

Can a super genius be a normal person?

No one can guarantee this.

Now Prochesi found that Wang Hao is normal, but he did not continue to persuade Wang Hao to participate in the International Conference of Mathematicians, but after opening the topic, he talked about another way to participate, "You can participate in the conference by remote video .”

"The technology is so advanced now that you can even make a report by the way."

"Of course, if the content of the report is novel, I believe everyone will look forward to it."

In this way, the face of the International Mathematical Society is taken into account. After all, the absence of a winner at the Fields Award ceremony sounds really embarrassing.

Wang Hao agreed.

He was not against the Fields Medal, but he just didn't want to go to the distant Austrian country to attend the Congress of Mathematicians.

The result of the discussion is very happy.

In this matter, Wang Hao has the initiative, because Fields must award it to him. As the top award in international mathematics, Fields' judgment is not so accurate.

For example, in some years, there are no outstanding mathematicians, and some winners may be questioned.

However, when encountering very good mathematicians and outstanding research results, it is only for the fairness and authority of the award that the award must be awarded to the corresponding mathematician.

For example, Andrew Wiles.

Andrew Wiles is already 'overage', because he solved the Fermat conjecture, he was still specially awarded the Fields Silver Medal.

Grigory Perelman, who had completed the proof of the Poincaré conjecture, clearly declared his rejection of the Fields Medal. The Mathematical Society still found his door and threw the medal directly into the room.

The same is true for Wang Hao.

He is more influential than Andrew Wiles and Grigory Perelman, because he has three achievements that are sufficient to get Fields, and his research contributions cover two fields: number theory and partial differential equations.

If the Fields Medal wants to ensure authority, it must be awarded to him.

...

The next day was relatively easier.

The results of the report have been determined, the report will be watched by the whole world, and there are a lot of reports in the public opinion.

Several scholars who participated in the report were interviewed and approved Wang Hao's proof.

When I went to Donggang University again that day, Wang Hao also accepted an interview with reporters, and said, "I am very confident in the research. The success of the report is not unexpected. The NS equation is an important tool. Although the smoothness problem has been solved, in fact , and more importantly, how to provide systematic theoretical support for the analysis of equations."

"There are still many research directions in this area, and the demonstration of smoothness is only the foundation of the foundation."

The reporter didn't seem to be very interested in academic things. After talking about the NS equation, he immediately turned to another question, "Donggang University is your alma mater. Will you consider returning to Donggang University in the future?"

"Won't."

Wang Hao said bluntly, "I'm just here to give a report, you don't need to understand deeply. I can't come back to work again."

"Do you have anything to say to Donggang University?"

The reporter continued to ask questions and said that other people nearby also looked at it with interest.

Donggang University is Wang Hao's alma mater, and there have been so many entanglements with Wang Hao, no matter which aspect he talks about, it will be very topical.

Wang Hao thought about it seriously, and said, "Donggang University is a famous university in China, and there are many outstanding young talents."

"I want to tell these people that other universities are also excellent, for example, Xihai University, Xihai University has always hoped that more talents will join."

"Donggang University is indeed a famous school, but the pressure of competition among famous schools is very high, and it is not easy to stay, especially for those talents who are engaged in basic scientific research."

"Xihai University has more opportunities, and the university has always had a policy of introducing high-level talents with high salaries..."

"..."

Wang Hao talked for a long time, which made the reporters around him stunned.

This is after completing the NS equation problem and attracting the attention of the whole world, he personally took the opportunity to advertise for Xihai University?

...

On the last day in Donggang, Wang Hao met Didier Mayor. They met in a small box in the hotel restaurant.

Even on the last day, Wang Hao is still very busy. As long as he goes out normally, he will be surrounded by many people.

It was not easy for Mayor to talk to Wang Hao alone, so he simply approached him directly and made an appointment to meet in the box of the restaurant.

Wang Hao felt weird looking around, he asked suspiciously, "Why can't we go outside and talk?"

"I'm afraid that group of mathematicians will go crazy." Mayor explained very bluntly, "You are the future of mathematics, if I come to talk about physics with you, maybe I will be thrown into the river by those people...feed the fish? "

Wang Hao imagined that scene, and couldn't help laughing, "That won't happen."

"Mathematicians are all lunatics." Mayor still insisted on his point of view, then glanced at Wang Hao and corrected, "You are normal."

The two chatted for a few words.

Mayor got to the point, "Can you talk about the annihilation force in detail? I just read your article, but the details are not clear. Do you have any follow-up research on this?"

"I've been doing it all the time." Wang Hao affirmed that he participated in the communication gravity experiment for the purpose of studying the annihilation force.

"Can you talk about it in detail? For example, let's introduce the annihilation force in detail? Your article is very general. If it is a particle-related research, what phenomenon do you think may have the effect of annihilation force?"

This is what Mayor cares about.

He is one of the heads of CERN. In the large-scale particle collider project, he has a separate experimental team to do research, hoping to find evidence of the existence of annihilation force through particle-related experiments.

Of course, he is not out of trust in the annihilation theory, but hopes to use experiments to prove the authenticity of some physical theories.

The theory of annihilation seems to be within the scope of 'experiment can be proved'.

As an experimental physicist, using experiments to prove important physical theories is his lifelong pursuit.

Wang Hao thought about it carefully, and said with a frown, "All I can think of is baryon decay. However, in the measurement experiment of antimatter, the annihilation force may have an effect."

"Theoretically speaking, the effect of gravity on the microscopic scale is much smaller than that of other forces, so the manifestation of annihilation force should be on a smaller mass unit rather than formed particles."

"Even electrons are very, very large relative to the mass unit, and their own electromagnetic force must far exceed the annihilation force."

Mayor frowned, "According to your explanation, can it be understood as an annihilation force, which only acts on a very small so-called 'mass unit'?"

"uncertain."

Wang Hao thought about it and continued, "Maybe it also has an effect on microscopic shapes." He took a paper cup, and with a little force in his hand, creases appeared on the paper cup immediately, "The annihilation force can annihilate the unit of mass, but it can also annihilate large particles. It has an effect, but relatively speaking, it is far less than the effect of other forces."

"If it is a certain form of microscopic composition, it may also have an effect."

Mayor also picked up the paper cup, bent it with a little force, and then suddenly said a word, "Topology?"

"What?"

"I mean topology. Haven't you read Duncan Haldane's research?" Mayor said and shook his head. "Of course, you are a mathematician, so you probably aren't interested in superconductivity."

He continued, "Haldane theoretically discovered the topological phase transition of matter and the topological phase, that is, the existence of superconductivity."

"The annihilation force you mentioned acts on microscopic morphology, which sounds very similar to topology."

Mayor kept shaking his head as he spoke. Anyway, it was difficult for him to connect the annihilation force with topology.

Wang Hao was stunned, he heard the system beep.

[Task 3, inspiration value +17. 】

Superconducting topological phase transition and topological phase?

That's right!
