Chapter 146 Two Provers on the Same Stage

"It was an extremely wonderful report meeting. I regret not being able to discuss it with you in person."

Deligne, who was sitting at the desk on the screen, was full of admiration. When he mentioned the report meeting just now, his eyes were full of light. It was a kind of mixed emotion of hope and joy for a genius.

The older generation of mathematicians will eventually withdraw from the stage, and the development and promotion of mathematics needs young people to do it.

To solve the world's mathematical problems, often can only rely on the emergence of mathematical geniuses.

Just like Xu Yun right now.

For the well-known professor of the Institute for Advanced Study in Princeton, Xu Yun is quite respectful and grateful.

As a student of the Algebra Emperor Grothendieck, if the other party hadn't argued for his Hodge conjecture and firmly believed that Hodge's conjecture may have been proven, I am afraid that the Annals of Mathematics would not have paid so much attention to it. In a very short period of time It set off a huge wave in the mathematics world.

Deligne was originally invited, but due to personal reasons, he was unable to come to Jingzhou City in person.

So Xu Yun specially added this connection link.

Facing Deligne's high praise at this moment, Xu Yun replied humbly and made a promise at the same time.

"Thank you, Professor Deligne, for your recognition of me."

"If there is a chance, I will definitely visit you and ask you about mathematics in person."

Deligne had received an email from Xu Yun a long time ago, and when he learned that Xu Yun refused to study at Princeton University, he was quite regretful.

Now hearing that Xu Yun was going to ask him for advice, a smile immediately filled his kind face.

"I'm really looking forward to this day."

...

With the end of a few short exchanges, until Deligne's figure disappeared from the screen, Xu Yun turned around and faced many scholars and professors in the audience again.

"In addition to Professor Deligne, I also invited another online guest for today's report."

"I believe that everyone will definitely not be unfamiliar."

Xu Yun remained mysterious, and waited patiently after saying this to everyone in the audience.

Since this video connection link was specially added, it is certainly impossible to invite only Deligne himself.

At this time, many people were also aroused by Xu Yun's words, and they all speculated about the next connection guest.

No one can shake Deligne's position as the grand slam of the mathematics trophy, but now he is not appearing as the finale, which shows that the last guest is really not simple.

"teacher."

"Do you know this person?"

"I don't know."

Griffith in the front seat heard Minter's question and shook his head to give his own answer.

After finishing speaking, he did not forget to add: "But I think I must know this person."

Deligne and him are also old friends, and he asked each other for advice when he argued for Xu Yun's thesis at first.

It is no surprise that Deligne participated online and gave Xu Yun such a high evaluation.

Although he can't guess the specific person for the finale guest, he will definitely know each other with his strong network resources.

Only mathematicians can come to this kind of report meeting.

Listening to the discussions of the people around them, Wu Zhongping and Yuan Chengming, who were also sitting in the front row, couldn't help showing a little worry on their faces, wondering when Xu Yun would engage in such activities.

They didn't know about the video connection.

Originally, I saw Xu Yun successfully completed the report meeting and successfully withstood the questions from overseas experts.

The two of them finally breathed a sigh of relief, thinking that there were no unexpected changes after all.

As a result, before he could be happy, Xu Yun did this.

"Old Wu."

"Do you know the other party's identity?"

Yuan Chengming poked his head slightly, and asked Wu Zhongping about the situation, his tone was somewhat worried.

Wu Zhongping shook his head with a complicated expression.

"This kid didn't make it clear in advance. I only know that Professor Deligne of the Institute for Advanced Study in Princeton will participate in the video connection."

"Then let's look down patiently. I believe Xu Yun has a sense of proportion."

Knowing the specific situation, Yuan Chengming replied in a deep voice, and then focused on the screen.

Fortunately, this mystery did not make everyone wait too long. Soon when the video connection was connected again, a new figure finally appeared on the screen.

Wearing black clothes, although the hair is very long and messy, it can be seen that it has been tidied up.

But those eyes were deep and bright.

And almost the moment everyone in the audience saw this figure, expressions of surprise and surprise appeared on their faces.

"It's actually Perelman."

Griffith couldn't sit still at first, and couldn't help calling out the name.

He is naturally no stranger to Perelman. As the prover of the Poincaré conjecture, when he presented him with a million-dollar prize on behalf of the Cray Mathematics Institute, the other party just chose to reject it, even symbolizing the highest achievement. Neither does the Fields Medal.

After that, it disappeared from the public eye, and no news came out.

No one expected that Perelman would suddenly appear here and choose to talk to another prover of the world's mathematical puzzle.

In a way, this can be regarded as belonging to the same frame of the century.

Even Wu Zhongping and Yuan Chengming were amazed that Xu Yun knew Perelman and persuaded him to participate in the video connection.

Everyone knows that Perelman is a mathematical hermit, and there has been no news at all in recent years.

I never thought that it would reappear in this way after so many years.

"I didn't expect Xu Yun to know Perelman, but I've never heard him mention it."

"Perhaps this is the mutual attraction between geniuses." Yuan Chengming's face was full of smiles again, and he just sighed with Wu Zhongping's words.

Xu Yun's ability to persuade Perelman to appear in this report meeting undoubtedly enhanced the authority of the report meeting a lot.

It is a good thing for the domestic mathematics community.

Seeing that the domestic mathematics community finally felt elated, he was naturally happy as the chairman of the Mathematics Society.

Perelman is different from Deligne. It is not easy for him to agree to accept this video connection, and he will definitely not say anything on the scene.

Not to mention the other mathematicians in the lecture hall.

When the video call was officially established, he immediately discussed with Xu Yun the formulas and ideas in the proof process of Hodge's conjecture, as if all the other people in the audience did not exist in his eyes.

The entire mathematics community is basically aware of Perelman's character, so he doesn't mind anything.

On the contrary, I was attracted by the content discussed by the two provers of the world's mathematical puzzles.

"Starting from the algebraic equation, define the solution of the equation as a geometric object to form an algebraic variety."

"Proving that every harmonic and differential form on nonsingular projective algebraic varieties is a rational combination of algebraically closed cohomology classes, your proof establishes for the first time a link between the three disciplines of algebraic geometry, mathematical analysis, and topology. basic connection."

"This is truly a milestone in mathematics."

Undoubtedly, Xu Yun admired this mathematical hermit very much. After a brief exchange, he sincerely thanked him and extended an invitation.

"Thank you for being able to attend this report meeting today. If you have the opportunity, you are welcome to come to Jingzhou University as a guest."

However, he also knew in his heart that with Perelman's personality and attitude towards things other than mathematics, it was already very rare for him to be willing to attend this report.

It is almost impossible to invite him over.

This can only be regarded as a scene.

But it is worth mentioning that Perelman's appearance not only surprised everyone in the venue, but also surprised the audience in the live broadcast room. I didn't expect that I would have the opportunity to see the two provers in the same frame.

Although some people don't know Perelman very well, they will quickly send out simple science barrage.

The barrage refresh rate in the live broadcast room has been increased again.

"To be able to invite Perelman is even better than the International Mathematical Organization."

"Is this person famous?"

"He is the prover of the Poincaré conjecture."

"The two provers on the same stage is definitely a photo that can be recorded in the history of mathematics development."

"A true hermit in mathematics."

"It's a pity that I didn't come here in person."

"Those who were not invited by the International Mathematical Organization, Peking University invited them. I don't need to say more about who is the most authoritative."

...

With the end of the video connection session, the report meeting is basically coming to an end.

There is no need for Xu Yun to say anything more.

It can be said to be a successful conclusion.

But at this time, Yuan Chengming suddenly stood up with a very happy smile on his face.

And turned his head to ask Wu Zhongping.

"Old Wu."

"Has the trophy for the Higher Education Society Cup been made?"

"It's been prepared a long time ago." Wu Zhongping obviously understood what Yuan Chengming meant. He nodded and answered, and then asked, "You really intend to take this opportunity to present a trophy to Xu Yun and the others."

"why not?"

"With so many well-known mathematicians from all over the world participating in the award presentation, no one else can compare to the gold content of our Higher Education Club Cup in the future."

Yuan Chengming asked a rhetorical question first, and then explained it seriously.

In fact, when the date of the report meeting was set, he thought of taking this opportunity to officially present the Higher Education Society Cup Award to Xu Yun, so as to increase the popularity and gold content of the Higher Education Society Cup.

Although the Higher Education Society Cup is a relatively important event in China, it seems to be ineffective in the world.

But even for the largest competition, it is impossible to invite so many famous mathematicians to participate in the award ceremony.

So now is an opportunity for the Higher Education Society Cup.

I believe that after today's awards are reported, there will be a large number of overseas college students participating next year.

Only with competition can there be motivation, which can also motivate domestic college students to continuously improve their mathematics level.

In this way, after Yuan Chengming stepped onto the podium to announce the awards, Qin Xiangxin's specially made trophy was brought up, and besides Xu Yun, Zhu Liyan and Zheng Yuchao also came up together.

As a member of the Higher Education Society Cup competition team, it is necessary to participate in such things as receiving awards together.

It's just that compared to Xu Yun's calmness, Zhu Liyan and Zheng Yuchao were obviously too nervous and their hands trembled slightly.

"Xu Yun."

"Why don't we both go down, and you can come and get it."

"Brother Yan is right, my legs are shaking from nervousness." Zheng Yuchao on the stage heard Zhu Liyan's subtle voice, and quickly added something in a low voice.

In this regard, Xu Yun grabbed their hands, looked at the camera with a smile on his lips and whispered comfort.

"Don't be nervous, just try to keep smiling, this is the highlight moment of our life."
