I Just Want to Be a Quiet Top Student

Just now I said that the Langlands program is a new program of number theory + algebraic geometry. My number theory is very bad, but my partner is an expert in number theory. Please allow me to be a guest host. Yun Weiwei looked not far away Standing official host.

The host smiled and took a few steps back, making a gesture of please.

Yun Wei: The following is a grand introduction to my classmate in the Department of Mathematics of Yanda University, winner of the Science Breakthrough Award, Ramanujan Prize, and professor of the Department of Mathematics of the Massachusetts Institute of Technology, Mr. Gong Changwei, who gave a speech on stage!

The applause sounded again, a thin man wearing glasses came to the stage, he and Yunwei embraced warmly, and then Yunwei stepped off the stage.

Great master, great master, they are all great masters, it's Wei Shenxiu's turn. Shen Qi was hooked, today's speech was not in vain.

Gong Changwei was Yunwei's classmate when he was in the Mathematics Department of Yanda University. He was one year older than Yunwei, a little thinner than Yunwei, and his hair was not as thick as Yunwei.

I was born in a rural area. When I was young, my family didn't have any spare money to cultivate my hobbies, so I counted numbers by myself to pass the time. I won a few prizes by counting, and then I was lucky enough to study in the Department of Mathematics of Yanda University. Gong Changwei's opening remark reveals the aura of an arithmetic prodigy in faint memories: I am particularly sensitive to numbers, maybe it is innate, and I was the first in the village in mental arithmetic when I was young.

The audience laughed.

But it's useless to calculate quickly. Yunwei has never been able to count against me, but his grades are always better than mine. Yunwei has won the IMO gold medal with a perfect score. I am one point less than him. The gap between him. Gong Changwei smiled and looked at Yunwei's seat under the stage.

Yunwei and Gong Changwei smiled at each other, pretending, Gong Changwei, keep pretending.

Show, Weishen, please continue to show. Shen Qi knew that Gong Changwei was also an IMO gold medalist, but he didn't get full marks.

Yunwei and Gong Changwei's Chinese Olympiad team was really tough, and the other countries they played could only kneel and cry. How strong is it? In that year, the Chinese Mathematical Olympiad team only needed to send five players to win the IMO team championship, and the maximum number of players was six.

When Shen Qi participated in the IMO last year, if the Chinese team had one less player, they could only win the team bronze medal.

Throughout the international mathematics community, most of the winners of F, W, A, and Ramanujan Prizes in the past 30 years have IMO participation experience and achieved good results.

In fact, China sent personnel to participate in the IMO relatively late, and only started participating in 1985.

After stumbling for ten years, starting from the mid-to-late 1990s, the Chinese Mathematical Olympiad team broke out strongly and became a constant victor in the IMO arena.

Young mathematicians born in the 1980s, represented by Yun Wei and Gong Changwei, emerged during the period when the Chinese Mathematical Olympiad team was booming.

From the mid-to-late 1990s to around 2000, Yun Wei and Gong Changwei were teenagers. Now they are in their thirties, and it will take five to ten years to win the Philippine Award. After 40 years old, they will automatically Disqualified for the Fields Medal.

Since I can only count numbers, come on, then I will study number theory. I decided on my research direction very early, when I was a freshman or sophomore. Teacher Sun Erxiong suggested that I focus on number theory. Gong Changwei faced the audience He bowed and said: Thanks to the teachers of the Department of Mathematics of Yanda University for their guidance. I have benefited a lot throughout my life.

Fuck, the fat old grandson can do it, he has taught both Yunshen and Weishen? Could it be that Sun Erxiong is the hidden boss of Yanda Mathematics Department? Shen Qi looked around the auditorium for a week, but still did not find Sun Erxiong. But think about it, Yunshen and Weishen were classmates in the same class when they were undergraduates in the Mathematics Department of Yanda University. Since Sun Erxiong taught Yunshen, he must have taught Weishen as well.

After graduating from Yanda University, Yunwei went to the Princeton Department of Mathematics, which is the world's most prestigious mathematics major, for further study and obtained a doctorate in mathematics. Gong Changwei, who went to the United States with Yunwei, chose Columbia University, where he obtained a doctorate in mathematics. Yun Wei and Gong Changwei, the generation of young mathematicians born in the 1980s, are known as China's golden generation.

Gong Changwei began to supervise doctoral students when he was 30 years old, and is now a professor in the Department of Mathematics of MIT. Some of Gong Changwei's doctoral students in the United States are older than him.

Since I confirmed the direction of number theory, I thought that it would be impossible to intersect with Yunwei in this life. My research point of entry is more arithmetic, while Yunwei's entry point is more geometry. Gong Changwei continued his speech.

Yunwei said just now that the Langlands program is a programmatic study of number theory + algebraic geometry, which has epoch-making significance. Ten years after graduating from Yanda University, Yunwei and I came together again. We have a tacit understanding, and we are eager to make breakthroughs. Chinese mathematicians have never been silent, and this era is our golden age, and the cry of the Chinese people will resound throughout the world! Gong Changwei said impassionedly.

Young mathematicians born in the 1980s are different from the older generation. They are more confident and eager to show their talents in front of the world.

Well said! Shen Qi shouted and took the lead in applauding.

Professor Yun and Professor Gong are awesome!

The Philippine Award is yours!

The audience applauded continuously, and the speech ended.

Gong Changwei and Yun Wei have won the Ramanu Gold Award successively. In recent years, they jointly launched an offensive against the Langlands Program. Not long ago, they jointly wrote a paper on some analysis of the Langlands Program, and jointly achieved scientific breakthroughs The mathematics prize in the prize, the prize money of 3 million US dollars is divided equally.

From the Mathematical Olympiad national team to the Department of Mathematics of Yanda University, and then to study the Langlands program together, the young and promising Gong Changwei and Yun Wei are a pair of golden partners. One of them is proficient in number theory, and the other is good at algebraic geometry.

Yunshen and Weishen really complement each other, algebraic geometry + number theory, their combination is perfect for studying the Langlands program. Shen Qi said with emotion.

When it comes to number theory, when it comes to being naturally sensitive to numbers, Shen Qi suddenly thinks of a person, Ouye, Ji Ji.

Ouye is strong in arithmetic, and her characteristics are somewhat similar to those of Weishen.

Shen Qi remembered that Professor Sun Erxiong had evaluated Ouye when he led them to this Golden Autumn Camp. The fat old Sun said that the most suitable direction for Ouye in the future is number theory.

It seems that the fat old grandson is not talking nonsense, Ouye has a template, and her template is Weishen.

Although mathematics is mostly a man's numbers game, history has also seen outstanding female mathematicians, such as Julia Robinson, who is an expert in number theory and is famous for solving problem 10 of Hilbert's 23 questions mathematics circles.

Oushen, what are you doing? Shen Qi sent a WeChat message to Ouye.

It was not until an hour later that Ou Shen wrote back: I just woke up.

Shen Qi: God, just woke up, and you didn't wake up until dinner?

Ouye: Yes.

Shen Qi: Ouye, do you know that I listened to the speeches of Yunshen and Weishen at the scene today, and I think your template is Weishen.

Ouye: Oh.

Shen Qi: Do you know who Weishen is?

Ouye: Gong Changwei.

Shen Qi: Then you, oh, oh, what a ghost. Number theory is very promising, but it is also very difficult to do. Even Yunshen dare not touch number theory, but you can try it.

Ouye: I have already started trying.

Shen Qi: Very good! After Yanda starts school in September, we will discuss the specific business in detail.

Ouye: Oh.

Shen Qi: Stop oh oh, what I hate the most is oh oh!

Ouye: ...

Shen Qi: ...
