Rebirth of science and technology academic master

In July, the most exciting thing is not the graduation ceremony of colleges and universities.

But after the college entrance examination results were announced, the top candidates in each province's college entrance examination and their application forms were the hottest news.

From June to July, for two months, the biggest news hot topics have been topics related to the college entrance examination, whether it is the college entrance examination in June, or the follow-up attention to the status of high school senior candidates after the college entrance examination and the college entrance examination questions in various subjects, or the June At the end of the month, each province will announce the college entrance examination results one after another, and then fill in the applications for the college entrance examination in July.

Shuimu University has been the most popular university in the country for seven consecutive years. The majority of top students in each province choose Shuimu University, and the proportion has exceeded that of Yan University by a large margin.

Then there is the newly established Twenty-Two School Alliance, and the remaining twenty-one universities are more attractive and competitive than before, and they have received many more high-quality students than in previous years. Dongfeng, the two-school alliance, has made a lot of profits.

Shuimu University also seemed a lot deserted in July.

Except that some people began to prepare for the upcoming freshman enrollment and military training, there was nothing major.

After Qin Yuanqing attended the twenty-two school alliance conference for three days and two nights in mid-July, he plunged into the research of superstring theory.

After all, he promised Witten to solve the basic problem this year, that is, why choose the "Kabila-Qiu Chengtong space" with an absolute value of Euler number 6?

Without solving this problem, problems such as superstring theory and M theory are actually like castles in the air or building high-rise buildings on the beach. They are fundamentally unstable and unconvincing.

The doubters can keep staring at this problem and ask the researchers to explain why they chose the "Kabila-Qiu space" with an absolute value of Euler number 6. As long as they cannot explain it, the doubters will not be convinced.

Among the many "Kabila-Qiu spaces", why choose the "Kabila-Qiu space" with an absolute Euler number of 6?

This question was raised during the first superstring theory revolution, and was pursued in the second superstring theory revolution. Unfortunately, no one who studies superstring theory can give an explanation. .

This is why, although string theory is a popular frontier of physical research, it has never entered the mainstream of physical research!

That's because the superstring theory seems perfect, but fundamentally it cannot withstand scrutiny and has fatal flaws that cannot be solved for a long time.

In order to solve this problem, Witten even personally consulted Qiu Chengtong. After all, Qiu Chengtong, who was only 29 years old, conquered the difficult geometric problem "Kabila Conjecture", so there is "Kabila-Qiu Chengtong Space".

The so-called Kabila-Qiu Chengtong space, referred to as ‘Kabila-Qiu’ space, is a curled-up high-dimensional space. It should be said that there is no fixed model of this six-dimensional space that can be displayed on a computer, and there is no shape that all physicists can agree on.

What it looks like, no one knows.

What is its size? Some people think that its radius is less than one billionth of a billionth of a meter, only one billionth of the radius of protons and neutrons.

Under such circumstances, the Kabila-Qiu space itself is extremely complex and very few can be understood. Superstring theory uses the "Kabila-Qiu space" with an absolute value of Euler number 6.

This seems perfect, but in fact it is difficult to explain. The lack of explanation means doubt!

Mathematics is rigorous, and the foundation of physics is also rigorous, because the foundation of physics is mathematics!

Over the years, scholars studying superstring theory have collaborated with countless mathematicians, but they have not been able to solve this problem for decades.

Why did Witten struggle for a while after receiving Qin Yuanqing's invitation, but still chose to accept Qin Yuanqing's invitation to join the Shuimu Institute of Advanced Studies? This is because Witten knew very well that the only person in the world who can solve this problem is Qin Yuanqing.

If Qin, Yuan and Qing could not solve it, then superstring theory would not be able to become a prominent theory of theoretical physics in this century, and he would not even be able to win the Nobel Prize in Physics.

Qin Yuanqing is immersed in studying the problem of superstring theory. Qiu Chengtong cannot solve it, but Qin Yuanqing may not be able to solve it.

However, the question of why the "Kabila-Qiu space" with an absolute value of Euler's number of 6 was chosen has caused headaches for the world's top mathematicians for nearly half a century. It is not so easy to solve. After all, this is the problem of Lian Qiu. Even the founder of the discipline of geometric analysis found it difficult to explain.

Sometimes Qin Yuanqing even thinks that superstring theory is just a beautiful flower that happened to happen.

This is why many scientists in the physics community, not least of whom are the winners of the Nobel Prize in Physics, dismiss string theory. What is string theory? It is a delusional theory. Its status in the physics community is the same as Sudoku. Physics A toy for the scientist’s idle mind.

From a mathematical point of view, Qin Yuanqing constantly tried to explain why he chose the "Kabila-Qiu space" with an absolute value of Euler's number 6, but the progress was very slow. This speed was still faster than the original solution to the Hodge conjecture. .

Qin Yuanqing went to the Shuimu Institute of Advanced Mathematics more and more frequently. In his exchanges with Witten and others, Witten and others had already sorted out a lot about string theory, superstring theory, and M theory. Now in the process of communicating with Qin Yuanqing, in the collision of wisdom, many aspects of string theory, superstring theory, and M theory that were considered perfect have been modified and corrected one by one, and these research results have been published in "Nature" journal, in China, is handed over to "Journal of Shuimu University (Natural Science Edition)", and seven top-quality papers emerged in one month.

It immediately caused a great shock in the world, because there have been no such outstanding results in string theory, superstring theory, and M theory for a long time. As the paper was published, those physicists who studied superstring theory and M theory looked at the paper as if they were learning all over again.

They found that after research by the Mizuki Institute of Advanced Studies, superstring theory and M theory have become more complete and more perfect.

After learning that Qin Yuanqing was solving the foundations of superstring theory and M theory from a mathematical perspective, the theoretical physics community turned their attention to Mizuki.

Since Qin Yuanqing solved the Yang-Mills theory and then proposed the unified theory of strong electricity, Shuimu has become another important holy place for theoretical physics in the world. It has developed prosperously in recent years, and many top theoretical physicists have appeared and made great achievements. Physics achievements that make the world look at them.

And everyone knows that the core of this is Qin Yuanqing, because although Mr. Yang has a very important position in the world of theoretical physics, Mr. Yang is old and this era no longer belongs to him. This era belongs to the Qin, Yuan and Qing Dynasties.

It is precisely because of this that theoretical physicists have continued to come to Shuimu as visiting scholars in recent years to further their studies.

But now, Qin Yuanqing has actually started working on string theory, which cannot be ignored by the physics community.

Compared with the excitement in the physics world, this year's World Congress of Mathematicians held in Rio, Brazil, seemed bleak. There were only more than a thousand mathematicians attending. Since Qin Yuanqing was in distress in the air, Although China has not made it public, other countries are not fools, so how could they not have heard anything about it? Therefore, they protect their country's top scientists and minimize going abroad, especially to the United States.

Not many people believe in freedom, democracy, and the beacon of humanity anymore.

Even the top mathematicians and physicists in the world today dare to do this. Who dares to believe this?

It is precisely based on these experiences that China’s One Belt One Road policy ushered in a turning point in 2018. Almost all countries along the route have joined the One Belt One Road, but they have always argued for it and been unyielding, and at the same time they have also increased investment in the One Belt One Road. .

If the countries along the route have no money, it’s okay. China can lend you money first. All you need to do is use iron ore and other production materials to sell to China. If you don’t have money for development, that’s fine. China can invest money for development first.

It is under such circumstances that some countries along the route have begun to build ports, railways, and highways. China has even taken the initiative to help countries along the route improve education, and is willing to allow elites from these countries to study in China under preferential conditions.

The only highlight of this World Congress of Mathematicians is the awarding of the Fields Medal to Qin Yuanqing and Perelman in recognition of their contributions to the Riemann Hypothesis. Five mathematicians including Schultz also won the award.

The World Congress of Mathematicians also called on Qin Yuanqing to hold an academic lecture on the proof of the Hodge conjecture, so as to speed up research on the Hodge conjecture paper, enhance human intelligence, and promote the birth of new mathematical disciplines.

Unfortunately, after Qin Yuanqing learned that the Alliance would award the Fields Medal to him again, he posted a speech on social media, thanking the Alliance jury for recognizing him. At the same time, given that he had already won the Fields Medal, this was not conducive to the development of world mathematics. The purpose of the Fields Medal is to encourage young mathematicians to study hard and recognize their contributions. If I win the Fields Medal again, it will go against the original intention of establishing the Fields Medal, and it will only hurt young mathematicians. So after careful consideration, he announced that he would withdraw from the evaluation of various mathematics awards in the future to give young people more opportunities.

Qin Yuanqing announced his withdrawal from the Fields Medal selection, which was not unexpected to the outside world, because Qin Yuanqing had already announced his withdrawal from the Nobel Prize selection before, and it is normal to announce the Fields Medal selection now.

Others need the Fields Medal to prove themselves and the Nobel Prize to prove themselves, but Qin Yuanqing no longer needs it.

As a person standing at the pinnacle of mankind, Qin Yuanqing no longer needs the Fields Medal or the Nobel Prize to add honor and glory to himself, because there is no need for it anymore.

Regarding the proof of Hodge's conjecture and whether to hold an academic report, Qin Yuanqing also gave a formal response, saying that when Perelman proved the Poincaré conjecture, the mathematics community spent three years conducting demonstrations and finally reaching a unified opinion. Then he will give the mathematics community 6 years. If the mathematics community cannot complete the demonstration within 6 years, then he will hold an academic report.
