Chapter 93 Is this crazy?

They all know about the Chinese math genius.

Even they couldn't help but lament the good luck of this mathematical genius. He happened to catch up with the International Congress of Mathematicians held every four years.

There was a professor who originally received an invitation to the International Congress of Mathematicians earlier this year. However, he was in a car accident some time ago and needed to recuperate at home for several months and was unable to come. The professor was extremely sad because this was an international mathematics conference after all. At this conference, there are hundreds of thousands or even millions of mathematics researchers around the world. I don’t know how many of them want to receive invitations but don’t have the opportunity. If they missed it, if it were them who came, they would probably be depressed for several days without even saying no. speak out.

However, luck seems to have become a zero-sum thing. Here is a professor who is unlucky, but there is a mathematical genius who is lucky.

Generally speaking, people are not replaced in situations like this, but a professor in the field of number theory at the International Mathematical Union remembered the paper not long ago that proved that there are infinitely many prime numbers in the Fibonacci sequence, because for the prime number problem He was particularly interested, so he proposed that the author of that paper come to the International Congress of Mathematicians to discuss his method together.

As a result, professors in other fields of number theory also unanimously agreed, so the author of that paper, an eighteen-year-old boy, got the opportunity to give a report at the International Congress of Mathematicians.

He thus became the youngest speaker at the International Congress of Mathematicians.

For these staff members, when they heard the news, they felt nothing but envy.

However, now it seems that the Chinese mathematics genius named Lin Xiao will not be able to seize this opportunity. He has not yet submitted his paper. A few days ago, he actually said that he wanted to submit it to the international university. A surprise from the Mathematicians Conference?

Although it must be admitted that the problem he solved did bring surprises to the mathematics world, but that surprise was already a few months ago. Is it possible that he can come up with any more results?

They didn't think he could do it, and they all thought that this mathematical genius was probably a little too ambitious.

The Tom shook his head and said, "Hey, let's take a look first. Maybe he will send it now? Although it's probably impossible."

Then he stood up, walked to the computer next to him, opened their report submission website, briefly looked at the background, and then froze.

"Hey...he actually sent it here? And the topic is...I bought it!"

His words attracted his colleagues.

These people looked at it subconsciously, wondering why Tom was surprised, and asked one after another: "What is the topic? Don't just tell half of it!"

"The topic is, a new group transformation method and the determination of the distribution law of Mersenne prime numbers."

After hearing the topic that Tom said, the staff members looked at each other with doubts on their faces.

"Messenne prime number? Isn't it a prime number in the Fibonacci sequence?"

"Yes, isn't it that what he solved is that there are infinitely many prime numbers in the Fibonacci sequence? How did it become the distribution of Mersenne prime numbers? Are you sure you read it correctly, or are you sure it's that 'Lin-Xiao'? "

"I'm sure it's him. I can't even recognize the words." Tom said: "He mentioned in the abstract that he combined group theory and modular forms to construct a brand new homomorphic group. Transformation method, and then completely determined the distribution pattern of Mersenne prime numbers in Mersenne numbers..."

Suddenly, these are mathematics Ph.D. graduates from world-renowned universities. They couldn't help but stand up at this moment.

"Are you kidding me!?"

"He solved the distribution law of Mersenne prime numbers?"

"Combined group theory and modular form, and then solved a problem in number theory? My Jesus, why do you feel like you are talking about the Langlands Program again?!"

Tom said helplessly: "What am I joking about? I'm sure of it."

"What are you talking about? Look, look, look!"

Suddenly, a group of people came together to see the paper. If the content was the same as the abstract, then they had to admit that this was really a surprise for the International Congress of Mathematicians, and it was A huge surprise.

The master who studied Mersenne prime numbers didn't know geometry, but now he actually solved it in the hands of an 18-year-old young man?

They all couldn't believe it.

When Tom saw the pile of people who had submitted the manuscript, he said angrily: "I have to send it to Chairman Viana first, and then I will ask the directors to review the manuscript. I don't know if they can pass it. You guys Don’t squeeze in yet.”

After hearing Tom's words, they remembered this matter.

They are still unknown people in the mathematics world, so naturally they cannot be responsible for reviewing these manuscripts. The most they can do is correct the format, etc. Their main responsibility is to contact the speakers.

As for the reviewers, they are naturally the highly respected professors in the Mathematics Alliance.

Before that, it must first be sent to the chairman of the organizing committee of this conference. The chairman will be responsible for contacting the person to read the report. If there are any questions, he will contact the reporter.

Just like publishing in a journal.

Therefore, generally speaking, the deadline for conference reports will be much earlier than the opening time of the conference. Situations like Lin Xiao's are also very rare.

Of course, the reason why he came here was that people thought he was just reorganizing the old results. Who knew he would take it so seriously and produce such an important result in a short time.

Therefore, whether it can pass the review process becomes a question.

If he fails to pass the review, then this mathematical genius will probably miss such an opportunity.

Then, Tom sent the manuscript to Chairman Marcelo Viana.

Marcelo Viana is a researcher at the Brazilian National Institute of Pure and Applied Mathematics and IMPA. IMPA is also the top mathematical institute in Brazil. As the host of this International Congress of Mathematicians, Marcelo Viana will Responsible for all the work of the conference, usually administrative work.

So after receiving the paper from the speaker's docking group, he received it immediately.

He frowned slightly when he saw the news.

That young reporter from China just sent the report now?

As a conference manager, I really don't like this kind of thing that is out of my control.

After all, this means variables, and as the chairman of the organizing committee of this conference, he certainly hopes that the entire conference can be successfully run without these problems occurring.

So when it was necessary to temporarily arrange for this Chinese to make a report, he was a little reluctant.

However, when the meeting was held, Peter Sarnak, a professor from Princeton University, made a suggestion, and everyone else agreed. There was no other way but to invite.

As a result, the report has not been submitted until now.

He didn't know what he wanted to report, so it took him a month to send it.

However, when he opened the paper and saw the title, his eyes widened.

"It's actually the determination of the distribution law of Mersenne prime numbers?"

"Is this... crazy?!"
