Scholar’s Advanced Technological System

It's not just the mathematics that has sparked debate.

Abc's guess proved that the news soon spread with the collapse of the arxiv server from the mathematical world to the entire college circle, and from the entire college circle to the entire network.

In less than a day, no matter whether it was a scarf or Twitter, whether it was a q group, a circle of friends, or Facebook, almost everyone was talking about it.

"I heard that the abc conjecture was resolved?"

"What the hell? Solved ?! What's the situation!"

"How could it be so fast! You must have heard it wrong?"

"No ... seems to be true. I heard that it was the team of the ispm team, that is, the team led by Academician Lu. Then yesterday they hung the preprint of the thesis to arxiv, paralyzing arxiv all day."

"Ah, ah! It turned out that because of this yesterday, arxiv did not go on the website! I said how to log in for a long time was notfound, and I thought it was walled. Why did I learn to use a computer?

"Unfortunately, a dissertation collapsed the document library, and it was still a preprint! Is it so awesome?"

"Others are probably not possible. After all, the reference value of the preprint is generally not great. Everyone is still more willing to wait for the improvement and look at the published version. But after all, this thesis is organized by Academician Lu ... According to previous experience, he officially submitted the manuscript. Papers in journals are hardly different from preprints. "

"Wait, abc's conjecture has been resolved. Does that mean that question from that extraterrestrial civilization, can we answer it?"

"It seems like this ... I'm afraid the second dialogue with extraterrestrial civilizations should have been arranged!"

Everyone remembers the press conference half a month ago, and the recording of the conversation that was spoken by the spokesperson of the Ministry of Foreign Affairs of China.

Proving the abc conjecture means that it has been recognized by another intelligent civilization!

It means that you have the key to the door of dialogue!

Although some people also have security concerns and believe that this is the temptation of alien civilization, no matter whether they are in favor of contact or disapproval of the faction, they have reached a consensus.

That is to show the achievements of human civilization in the mental field, and it is conducive to friendly exchanges between the two sides.

After all, if you want to communicate with another civilization on an equal basis, regardless of whether the looks are flattering to each other, you must at least show your advantages as a smart creature.

In other words, if the other party is a primitive civilization that is difficult to calculate even the difference, most human nations will not communicate with each other with a cautious and respectful attitude.

Just as Internet users around the world were talking excitedly about the upcoming second dialogue, governments of all countries were also shaken by the sudden news.

North America.

1600 Pennsylvania Avenue, Washington.

A confidential document was placed on the table in the president's office.

Browsing at the open documents for a long time, the president who finally read the documents looked up, looked at the chief of staff standing at the desk, and said slowly.

"Meaning ... abc conjecture has been resolved?"

He couldn't understand the complicated proof process and didn't want to know.

He only wanted to know one thing now, and that was how certain of this proof was true.

"Yes ..." the chief of staff nodded with a heavy expression, and said quickly, "According to the opinion of our specially invited mathematical science consultant, there is not much problem in the whole proof process, and the research team organized by the Pentagon has the same opinion. And even if aside from these, according to past experience, only in the case of 99% sure that the process is correct, that Lu Zhou will upload the paper. "

In fact, it is not just Hua Guo who is offering a reward to solve the ABC conjecture.

Since the recording of part of the dialogue by Hua Guo at the press conference, countries that have almost mathematical influence in the world have all used administrative power to a certain extent, and have encouraged mathematicians in their country to conduct research on the ABC conjecture.

Everyone hopes to complete the proof of the abc conjecture first and use it as a bargaining chip to gain more benefits for their country. Especially at the stall where an international dialogue organization for extraterrestrial civilizations is being established, who can take the lead in dialogue with extraterrestrial civilizations will undoubtedly gain more voice in this organization.

Looking at the silent president, the chief of staff reminded.

"Now the Chinese have taken the initiative on the issue of dialogue with civilizations outside the region. If we continue to delay on the issue of liaison organizations with civilizations outside the region, they are likely to bypass us and communicate with each other individually, and then By forcing us to make concessions in a way that creates fait accompli, we may be more passive than we are now. "

Brow stared at the map on the wall.

After pondering for a long time, the president's eyebrows were slightly loose, Shen said.

"You can only promise them first."

At the same time, a similar dialogue was taking place across the Atlantic.

An invitation letter was sent from the 10th Downing Street to the Chinese Embassy in London. The Chinese diplomat parked at the entrance of the Elysee Palace. A high-level diplomatic meeting in the Kremlin in Eastern Europe is ongoing. The cabinet extended an invitation to high-level dialogue to neighboring countries across the sea.

For a time, the global political arena was tense because of a proof of mathematical conjecture ...

...

North Rhine-Westphalia, Germany.

University of Bonn.

"I've read the thesis," seeing Schultz's first side, Faltins said straight into the subject, "let me guess that at least 50% of it was done by Lu Zhou ... right?"

"To be exact, it's sixty percent," Schultz made a helpless expression in front of Professor Faltings's euphemism, sitting generously on the sofa in the office. "No Exaggeratedly, without him, we are probably still worried about the entry point of the problem, or arguing about a little trivial matter ... don't say that, you should have read the paper, and feel how the proof is ? "

Looking at Schultz with a smile on his face, Professor Faltins took a sip of coffee and said lightly.

"I can't fault it."

In other words, no problem?

Schultz automatically translated the sentence in his head.

After all, it is too difficult to hear heartfelt praise from Professor Faltings.

Looking at Schultz who was not talking but smiling, Faltins frowned, but thinking of the question he was going to ask before, the frown was gradually sent down again, and he continued to speak slowly.

"I noticed that the special expression he used in describing the abc conjecture was very interesting ... how did you come up with it in such a short time?"

"According to Lu Zhou himself, he borrowed from Far Abel's geometry, but Mochizuki himself has firmly denied this. He believes that there is no correlation between the two at all, but he has gained a lot from it. Inspired, I plan to go back and polish my theory, "Schultz pinched his hair a bit puzzled," ... Maybe a humble rhetoric, I heard that the Chinese people have this habit, anyway, I feel, 80% It was his brainstorm. "

An idea is okay.

Faltins frowned, but only for a moment.

Unless Riemann conjectures such a problem that even Grothendieck feels embarrassed, he will never express his candid praise.

"The proof of abc's conjecture is probably no suspense, but the method you used is worthy of further study." The previous topic was quickly concluded with a sentence, and Professor Faltings put the coffee cup on the table.

After a few seconds of pause, he continued, "One more thing, I need to tell you."

Schultz: "What is it?"

Organizing the language in his head, Faltins said, "Ms. Caricek visited yesterday."

Schultz frowned slightly and asked, frowning.

"Ms. Caricek?"

Faltins: "It is the Minister of the Federal Ministry of Education and Research. It is normal for you not to know me, and I am not interested in her ... if you cannot remember the name, it will be credited to the University of Bonn and the Max Planck Institute for Mathematical Research. Just fine. "

Hearing here, instead of reducing the confusion in Schultz's mind, his frown grew deeper and deeper.

"What do federal bureaucrats come here for?"

Isn't it always studying mathematics?

Without knowing why, Schultz suddenly had a vague feeling.

I don't know if he saw the thought in his heart or didn't notice it at all. Professor Faltins shrugged his shoulders and said casually.

"It happens to be a bit related to your thesis ... whether it's 10% or 20%, abc's conjecture proves that you have always contributed a part of it.

After a pause, he continued.

"In simple terms, she wants you to represent Federal Germany ..."

"Go to Mars."

Schultz: "...?"
