Genius of the Rules-Style System

There are four journals recognized as the most influential in the world of mathematics, namely "Annals of Mathematics", "New Advances in Mathematics", "Journal of Mathematics" and "Journal of the Mathematical Society". Together they are known as the 'four top journals in mathematics'. authoritative journal'.

The impact factors of these mathematics journals are not very high, and the half-life of cited articles is also very long. Generally, articles will be more than ten years.

But everyone in the mathematics community believes that publishing articles in these top journals is something to be proud of.

One is influence.

The four top journals have a strong influence. Papers published in them will go through layers of review, and every published paper is the latest breakthrough or research in the mathematics world.

The second is the number of papers published.

The number of papers published by the four top journals every year is strictly controlled, and the total number of them is only about 200. Among them, "Acta Mathematica" is the least, with only a dozen papers published in two issues every year.

"Journal of the Mathematical Society" Secondly, the quarterly magazine has only four issues per year, each issue publishes eight articles, for a total of thirty-two articles.

"Annals of Mathematics" and "New Advances in Mathematics" publish a larger number of papers, but only in relative terms. Compared to the size of the world's mathematical community, the number of dozens more papers is still very pitiful.

Since the beginning of the new century, the number of papers published by domestic scholars and research institutions in the four top authoritative journals has averaged about three papers per year. As time goes by, there will be an increasing trend.

Last year, domestic mathematicians and research institutions published six papers in four top journals, including one contributed by Zhao Yi.

From this data, we can know how difficult it is to publish a paper in the four top authoritative journals of mathematics. Countless mathematicians and research institutions are breaking their heads and want to publish an article, because just publishing it is already quite large. What an achievement.

It's kind of like regular people being on TV.

Even if you just show your face on the CCTV camera or take a photo with a celebrity, it is worth showing off in your circle of friends.

From this, you can imagine how the domestic media reported it after discovering that "New Advances in Mathematics" published a paper signed by Zhao Yi.

When searching for various titles on the Internet, they are——

"Genius high school student Zhao Yi's paper was published in a top mathematics journal! 》

"New Breakthrough: Zhao Yi's paper was published in an authoritative journal! 》

"The top journal 'New Advances in Mathematics' published Zhao Yi's mathematics paper! 》

"Zhao Yi's paper has once again appeared in top international journals! 》

When someone noticed the news and clicked in to view it, the news content was really special. It just explained that Zhao Yi's mathematics paper was published in the top journal New Advances in Mathematics.

Further down is the introduction of the world's authoritative mathematics journals, or the introduction of "New Advances in Mathematics". Some are detailed, and they also copy and paste the number of papers published in the four top journals in China.

but……

What exactly is the published paper?

People who are concerned about the content of the paper are very anxious when they read the report.

In fact, the news writers who published the report couldn't help it. The new issue of "New Advances in Mathematics" had just come out, and it was all in English. The only thing they could understand was Zhao Yi's name and the mark of 'Prover of Kakutani Conjecture'. I know it must be that 'Zhao Yi'.

What should I do if the title is in English?

If it is an ordinary title, those who know English can translate it directly. However, there are too many professional terms in "Irregular Three-dimensional Tremor Waveform Diagram", and it is very awkward to translate the words one by one. If you are not a professional in mathematics research, there is no way to truly translate it. .

Most people can't even understand the title. When news is reported, the English version of the title is copied and pasted directly.

Ordinary people are definitely not interested in this kind of content in complex English. It is enough for them to know that "Zhao Yi published a new paper". As for the content of the paper, it is not important at all.

After the media published the news, the public opinion about Zhao Yi on the Internet suddenly became interesting.

Many people have discussed Zhao Yi publicly before, as if to define his genius.

There is a reason why Zhao Yi can cause a big discussion. The main reason is that he is too young and his achievements are too high.

The two achievements of 'researching new computer algorithms' and 'proving Kakutani's conjecture' are enough to be hired as a full professor by a university. It is no longer important to have academic qualifications, because world-recognized achievements in academia are far more important than academic qualifications. Much.

This kind of genius is beyond the comprehension of ordinary people.

Now the public opinion about Zhao Yi's discussion continues to ferment, but the debate about his "genius qualification" is completely gone. Within one year, two mathematics papers were published in the four top mathematics journals, one of which proved the world's Mathematical conjecture.

Isn’t this a mathematical genius?

After the new issue of "New Advances in Mathematics" magazine came out, some media directly posted an article saying, "Zhao Yidu is not a mathematical genius. What is a mathematical genius?"

"According to this evaluation standard, there are no mathematical geniuses in the country or even in the world!"

Those who said Zhao Yi was ‘not a mathematical genius’ silently shut their mouths. They didn’t even think of refuting.

But you can't take back what you said.

Some media will conduct online reports on rehabilitating old scores, because the title of "Returning old scores" is very attractive, and netizens who have read it are more likely to click on it.

So reports came out.

For example, "Professor Feng from Jinning University: Zhao Yi is just a high school student!" 》

The content of the article is that Professor Feng from Jinning University said in an interview that Zhao Yi is just a high school student and does not have professional and advanced mathematical knowledge. He may be expected to achieve success in the future, but what he needs now is to learn mathematics. Systematic learning.

The next sentence reads, "Zhao Yi published the latest mathematical research papers in the four top authoritative journals "New Advances in Mathematics"."

besides--

"Professor Li Yilai: It is impossible for Zhao Yi to achieve another achievement in mathematics"

The content is similar to the above. It is to help everyone recall what Li Yilai said in the interview. Finally, he followed Zhao Yi and published a paper in a top journal.

The report also mentioned in passing: "So far, Li Yilai has not published any paper in the four top journals, or even the top ten mathematics journals in the world, while Zhao Yi has published two."

Such face-slapping reports are indeed fascinating.

Many online media have discovered that similar reports will receive a large number of clicks and comments, and many media immediately follow suit and report on them. Even the "not a genius" Li Lin, a guest on the "Brain Bang" program, once made comments that were criticized. The media dug it out.

In fact, Li Lin was really wronged.

Since the last time I reviewed Zhao Yi, he has been given the nickname "not a genius" on the Internet, and even the weight of what he said on the show has become smaller, because netizens who know him don't buy it, and they think Li Lin is nothing. With his eyesight, he actually said that Zhao Yi was not a mathematical genius.

Nowadays, real people in the field of mathematics on the Internet, including Li Yilai, who has conflicts with Zhao Yi, have not definitely said that Zhao Yi is "not a mathematical genius". At most, they are like Li Yilai, "it is difficult to achieve achievements in mathematics", and Li Lin It's even more impossible to say that.

Li Lin is a public figure and was interviewed by reporters. What he said was, "Everyone is talking about him, but I don't want to talk about him." He randomly smiled bitterly and joked, "I am no longer a genius."

The media doesn't care what Li Lin says now, only what he said before.

Li Lin also joined the criticism, and the title of the report was simply - "Dr. Li Lin: Zhao Yi is not a mathematical genius."

Li Lin is relatively well-known and attracts even more news clicks. The reports of Professor Feng and Li Yilai of Jinning University combined are less than one-tenth of Li Lin's.

Lots of coverage.

Lots of praise.

Lots of criticism…

The reversal of online public opinion became even more interesting. The popularity lasted for a whole day. It was only then that everyone remembered one thing.

"What papers did Zhao Yi publish?"

"What is it for?"

"Why was it published by the authoritative "New Advances in Mathematics"?"

Then, the popularity went down because ordinary people no longer cared. The reason is very straightforward——

can't read.

…

Thirteen middle school.

Elite Class A classroom.

The students also privately discussed the topic about Zhao Yi on the Internet. The popularity of Zhao Yi publishing papers on the Internet was about to die down, but the protagonist of the matter, Zhao Yi, was beside them, so they were naturally very curious.

Zhao Linlin asked with interest, "Zhao Yi, what kind of waveform diagram did you write? What is it about?"

"The name sounds complicated..."

Hu Tianyan on the other side also glanced over, as if explaining how to be a quiet listener.

Lin Xiaoqing raised her ears.

Wang Jian pushed Zhao Yi behind him, "Yes, tell me, I read the news when I got home yesterday, and it seemed that the suffix was related to some mathematical conjecture? Did you crack another mathematical conjecture?"

"real or fake?"

"Isn't it?"

"It doesn't seem to be mentioned online. Zhao Yi, tell us what's going on."

Several classmates gathered around.

Zhao Yi glanced around, pressed his forehead hard, hesitated for a moment and said, "Okay, let me explain. The irregular three-dimensional tremor waveform is actually a kind of graph, just like the plane analysis of y=x is A straight line."

"Oh~~"

A group of people came to their senses and they all understood.

Zhao Yi continued, "I created a function. The analytical image of the function is called a three-dimensional tremor waveform graph. This image is irregular, mainly because of prime numbers."

"To understand my function, you must first understand the Riemann Hypothesis. Riemann, everyone knows it, right?"

A group of people nodded and shook their heads.

Zhao Yi ignored everyone's reactions and continued directly, "In one of Riemann's papers, he mentioned a conjecture. He took the value of the variable S based on Euler's identity..."

"This is the Riemann function, and under certain circumstances, all..."

"The three-dimensional tremor waveform diagram is an expansion of the Riemann Hypothesis. It is a function inferred based on the value. I call it function shaping..."

"so……"

Zhao Yi was really explaining it seriously, and he was trying to simplify it as much as possible, but after only about five minutes of explanation, everyone around him disappeared.

Look left and right.

Zhao Linlin lay on the table to rest.

Hu Tianyan put her long legs under the table again and was spinning her pen without knowing what she was thinking.

Wang Jian from behind started tossing coins.

Lin Xiaoqing's movements in front did not change at all, but she no longer leaned on the edge of his table.

Everyone else walked away.

Zhao Yi looked up and realized that there was another person looking at him, it was Niu Lianhua who was about to take math class.

Niu Lianhua seemed to be listening very seriously, and her movements and eyes did not change. She noticed that Zhao Yi looked over and nodded towards him, "Well said, Zhao Yi, it is about shaping images and shaping functions, right."

Zhao Yi suddenly felt very relieved and picked up the scratch paper to continue explaining.

Niu Lianhua trembled all over and quickly waved her hands and said, "Zhao Yi, Zhao Yi! It's time for us to go to class. After class... wait until school is over... let's talk about it later when we have time." She said without giving Zhao Yi a chance. He walked directly to the podium.

After the research results came out, no one around me could understand them, which really made me feel a little depressed.

This is different from Kakutani's conjecture.

Everyone knows the Kakutani conjecture, and there is no need to explain it at all. Even if you don’t know, you already know it, and no one cares about the detailed proof process.

The current three-dimensional tremor waveform diagram is an expansion of the Riemann Hypothesis, let alone a researched function. Most people can't even understand the Riemann Hypothesis, let alone a function that expands the prime number solution on this basis.

Of course.

There are still people who affirm Zhao Yi’s research.

Xu Chao.

When Zhao Yi returned home, he was questioned by Xu Chao, but Xu Chao was not concerned about the content of the function, because he already knew it. What he was questioning was the influence of the paper.

If the Riemann Hypothesis is cracked, there will be no doubt about his influence. It can be said that Zhao Yi will be considered the top mathematician in the world in one leap.

Zhao Yi's research is based on the Riemann Hypothesis and expands the prime number solution of the function. Both he and Xu Chao understand the meaning.

For example, the function contains a wider range of prime solutions. After introducing a new variable, it is easier to understand. When used in cryptography and other aspects, it is definitely more meaningful than the Riemann function.

In addition, the function relies on the Riemann Hypothesis, which is naturally equivalent to a conjecture. It is unclear whether it will be recognized by the world.

Zhao Yi was also very unsure about this.

In fact.

At present, the domestic and foreign mathematics circles are unanimously silent, and there is also the factor of "uncertain influence". The Riemann Hypothesis is the most important mathematical problem in today's mathematics world. There are more than a thousand mathematical propositions in the mathematical literature based on the Riemann Hypothesis (or The establishment of its promotion form) is the premise.

Could a 'three-dimensional tremor waveform' be one of them, or is it more valuable than an ordinary mathematical proposition? Is this value compared with the range of prime solutions contained in the function and the simplified situation relative to the Riemann Hypothesis?

These are all questions.

There is a question that must be solved first, that is, whether the 'three-dimensional tremor waveform diagram' based on the establishment of the Riemann Hypothesis is definitely an extension of the Riemann Hypothesis, based on the plane with the value 'x=1, y=1'. The peaks and troughs of the waveform graph, and whether the solutions obtained are all prime numbers.

Because it is based on the premise that the Riemann Hypothesis is established, it is of course impossible to prove that the peaks and troughs of the waveform are all prime numbers, but computers can assist in detecting whether the previous numbers are correct.

Many research institutions are interested in this.

On the third day after the publication of the new journal "New Advances in Mathematics", a research team announced that they would use computer methods to verify the values ​​of the 'three-dimensional tremor waveform diagram', and they also applied for the use of a supercomputer for this purpose.

This research team comes from Stanford University and has been dedicated to computer mathematics.

Sarnak is a tenured professor at Stanford University and a member of the research team. He stood up and told reporters, "I saw a very interesting paper that established a new function that claimed to be an answer to the Riemann Hypothesis prime numbers. This extension of the solution, my colleagues and I thought it would be very interesting to verify it."

"If this is true, we can choose to forget the Riemann Hypothesis, because the new function is more meaningful than the Riemann Hypothesis. It is also relatively easier to study."

"I hope it succeeds. That means we are one step closer to cracking the law of prime numbers."

On the night of Sanak's interview, a domestic team came forward and said they would verify the "three-dimensional tremor waveform chart."

That was the voice from Yanhua University.

Liu Guangzuo and Qian Zhijin stood up together and said that the Intelligence and Automation Laboratory will use the large computer inside the laboratory to verify the 'three-dimensional tremor waveform diagram'.

Qian Zhijin explained the significance of the verification, "The three-dimensional tremor waveform diagram is an expansion of the Riemann Hypothesis, and the Riemann Hypothesis is widely used in cryptography."

"If the verification can get the right results, we can create a more comprehensive and more secure password, which is very important for network security."

In fact, it is not just network security, military, satellite, national defense and other fields also need to use complex passwords. If the 'three-dimensional tremor waveform diagram' is confirmed to be correct, a brand new password can be created to greatly improve the security performance. .

These cannot be said publicly.

In the eyes of many professionals, what Qian Zhijin said is the most basic common sense, but it is different from the perspective of ordinary people.

At this time, many people realized that the "incomprehensible things" developed by Zhao Yi were so significant!
