Chapter 252 Is the Polignac conjecture proved?
“Huh~”
Writing down the last row of calculations, Xu Qingzhou let out a long breath and picked up the pink cup on the side to drink water. He discovered that despite the fact that the school beauty Song was usually cold, in fact, in his heart Contains a girl's heart.
As soon as I finished drinking water, I noticed that the mailbox in the lower right corner of the computer started to flash.
It is an email from Kathleen, a professor at Johns Hopkins University in the United States, announcing that he has proved the Polignac conjecture.
"Is this really being preempted?"
After browsing the news, Xu Qingzhou was a little surprised. This time it was different from the parallel imports in India. The person who announced this was Professor George Stewart, who is well-known in the field of number theory. .
Professor Stewart once improved Zhang Yitang's sieving method and published several papers on number theory.
Even Xu Qingzhou has read his paper on improving Zhang Yitang's screening method.
I would be lying if I said I wasn’t depressed when someone else finished something I had been doing for a long time, but I was only a little depressed.
Xu Qingzhou struggled all these years in his previous life, and gained not only frequent urination and urgent urination, but also a lumbar disc herniation, and a heart as stable as an old dog.
He first replied to Kathleen's email, thanking her for sharing the information, and then carefully searched for relevant news.
After checking the information, Xu Qingzhou found that Professor Stewart had only announced the incident on Twitter, and said that experts had been invited to conduct demonstrations, and there was no more authoritative organization to provide support.
Even Johns Hopkins University only said that the school is testing it.
Oh~
Then there’s no need to be depressed. It hasn’t been announced yet, so I’m so panicked.
Even if it is really proven, just relax and do other things.
He wanted to see Professor Stewart's proof process, but he also knew that it would take some time.
Smiling, Xu Qingzhou took a deep breath, stopped looking at the miscellaneous news, lowered his head and continued the calculation just now.
However, at 2 o'clock in the afternoon, he received a call from Professor Gu Zhizhong asking him to go to the office.
There are only two people in the office, Gu Zhizhong and Su Kewei.
"Junior brother, drink tea." Su Kewei poured tea for Xu Qingzhou.
"Thank you, senior brother." Xu Qingzhou originally wanted to come by himself, but this senior brother Su was really a bit enthusiastic.
Su Kewei didn’t think there was anything wrong with pouring tea to his junior brother who was many levels younger than him.
After all, isn’t it the right thing to pour tea for the boss?
Every time they meet, the halo around the junior brother's head seems to be increasing.
Look, he is already the person in charge of a national fund project.
He couldn't help but think that when they met for the first time, he seemed to want to point out this junior brother.
Sloppy.
Professor Gu Zhizhong asked: "Have you been paying attention to the news in the number theory circle recently?"
"You want to say that Professor Stewart announced yesterday that he had proved his conjecture?" Xu Qingzhou said.
"It seems you already know."
Gu Zhizhong nodded and said slowly: "I heard from an old friend who teaches at Johns Hopkins University that there is already an organization there. The experts have conducted a demonstration."
Gu Zhizhong called Xu Qingzhou over, but he was actually a little worried that Xu Qingzhou's mentality would be affected.
Young people are originally full of energy, but if they are suddenly doused with a basin of cold water, they may get into trouble.
Especially Xu Qingzhou, a kid who broke into what he considered two "south walls" in succession, everything went smoothly.
“Well, a friend from Cambridge University sent an email this morning and told me about this matter. I was quite surprised. I didn’t expect that someone would announce that he was certified so quickly.”
Xu Qingzhou took a sip of tea and felt a little emotional.
Professor Gu: "Are you a little surprised?"
Xu Qingzhou nodded, paused, and added: "There is still pressure, and I have to speed up."
Gu Zhizhong was stunned for a moment, staring at Xu Qingzhou's face, trying to see if this kid was trying to be brave, but found that he was overthinking, and there was no look of shock on this man's face. "You kid, you have a better mentality than this old guy like me. When I saw the news last night, I was worried that you would be hit. But now it seems that I am worrying too much."
Xu Qingzhou shrugged: "I just announced the proof, but haven't conducted the argument yet. To say the least, even if the other party succeeds, my argument is not meaningless to a certain extent, in case a new path is found. "
Next door, Su Kewei, who has been eavesdropping, has a solemn expression. He is indeed his junior brother. In one word: Steady!
Gu Zhizhong nodded and said: "Scientific progress is never a single-handed victory, but a feat of standing on the shoulders of giants. The emergence of a result is one person's honor, but it is also the blooming of the accumulated wisdom of countless people." ”
"So, even if someone is the first to prove the Polignac conjecture, your contribution is indispensable. After all, it is because you proved the twin prime conjecture first."
Xu Qingzhou nodded with a smile.
Knowing that Xu Qingzhou was in a good state of mind, Professor Gu Zhizhong felt relieved. He drank tea and said in a casual tone: "I heard that old guy Zhao said that I want to ask you to come over and help with the calculation again?"
"Yes, help with data analysis."
"Humph, he is quite good at calling people. He knows you are busy and still comes to you." Gu Zhizhong snorted coldly.
Xu Qingzhou smiled: "I just went to help you a little, so I won't waste much time..."
"Unfortunately, I have nothing to teach you in the field of number theory." Gu Zhizhong sighed.
Xu Qingzhou said sternly: "Professor, you have helped me a lot."
"You don't learn anything else, you just know how to flatter me."
Gu Zhizhong laughed and scolded, although He was scolding like this, but his face could not hide his pride.
"However, your boy's progress is a bit amazing. Last year, Lao Jiao and I were still lamenting that with you here, whether it is the national competition or the US competition, Beijing University will have to shine."
" Now it seems that you have to find someone else, which means nothing to you. It is a waste of time and gives people the feeling that the big one is bullying the small ones.” Heavier than these math competitions.
Xu Qingzhou also smiled and nodded: "Leave the opportunity to participate in the competition to others."
After saying what needed to be said, Professor Gu waved his hand and said: "Okay. , I won’t disturb you, just go and do your business.”
Xu Qingzhou drank a cup of tea, said goodbye and left without staying any longer.
He was indeed not affected. Everything was going according to plan, working on Polignac's conjecture and constructing a mathematical model of the battery. He even went to the Quantum Research Institute the next day.
After the device receives the entangled photon pairs, the data needs to be processed and analyzed efficiently and accurately, which generally involves mathematical tools such as statistical models, signal processing technology and quantum information theory.
Professor Chang Ciyuan presided over this part of the content, but it was a bit difficult to calculate. The calculation team led by Professor Zhong was in a critical period and was busy integrating the mathematical models of quantum states and entangled states with the previous attitude control model. , free space loss model is coupled.
Can’t spare the manpower.
So everyone thought of Xu Qingzhou.
The current main task is to describe the statistical characteristics and noise distribution of data by establishing mathematical models. It is necessary to design effective signal processing algorithms and data analysis methods to extract useful quantum information.
Xu Qingzhou is responsible for figuring out the decoding algorithm. Simply put, it is based on quantum error correction codes to implement an efficient decoding algorithm to restore quantum information destroyed during transmission.
So, Xu Qingzhou was so busy that he took off.
I recommend this novel, a masterpiece by a fine author. Book lovers can read it if they are interested.
"After rebirth, I have the advantage in love!" 》
“I have never spent my youth with anyone. From now on, all I will love is those who have loved others.”
“Money can’t buy her that summer when she looked up at her lover. The twinkling light in his eyes.”
So Lin Shang was reborn.
Going back to 2014, he has stepped through all the pits of youthful regret and knows very well: when he can hold hands with his first love Bai Yueguang, he must not just stand side by side with them.
Oh yes, I forgot to mention it, first love is first love, white moonlight is white moonlight, they are different.
