Chapter 167 I have never seen such a shameless person
Huaguo, on the campus of P University.
"Zhou Xin, I remember your mentor is Mo Kun, right?"
In a certain dormitory, a young man stuck his head out from under the bed and asked another roommate next to him who was watching anime.
Zhou Xin, who was reading anime, responded without raising his head: "Well, what's wrong?"
"Did Professor Mo prove some conjecture some time ago?" the probing young man then asked.
Hearing this, Zhou Xin turned to look at his roommate and replied with a smile: "Yes, I heard that this conjecture was proved. The tutor received a reward of 100,000 yuan from the school, and he will have the opportunity to be upgraded to a doctoral supervisor next year. Maybe I Can I get a degree?”
"Why, are you envious?"
The friend looked strange and shook his head, saying: "But there are news reports that Professor Mo's certificate is suspected of plagiarism."
"Plagiarism? This is the non-null hypothesis of the Rankin-Selberg L-function. It is one of the core issues of the L-function in the Langlands Program. With such a difficult problem, why don't you copy one and let me see?" Zhou Xin retorted directly.
"However, the person who published this news is Professor Artur Avila, winner of the Fields Medal. He can't possibly frame people, right?"
Suyou continued, while Zhou Xin was stunned for a moment, reached out and pressed the animation pause button, stood up and walked over: "Where did the news come from?"
"Now, here, let's take a look."
The roommate handed the phone over to him, and Zhou Xin quickly caught it, holding his breath and reading it intently.
After reading the news, Zhou Xin quickly forwarded the link to his own authority, and then returned the phone to his roommate.
"I'm going out."
After saying that, he took the phone and ran away.
On campus, Zhou Xin hurriedly ran into an office with her mobile phone in hand.
"Old, teacher, something happened."
Panting, he held on to the door frame and shouted to a middle-aged professor inside.
Hearing the voice, the middle-aged professor with a horse face frowned and taught with some displeasure: "Whenever there is a big event, you must first meditate. What is it like to be so flustered?"
< br>
"Teacher, you'd better take a look at this first."
Zhou Xin ignored the instructor's instructions and took his mobile phone to send a link to the instructor's prestige in front of him.
"The link gives you prestige, teacher, and it is related to the paper you published before on proving the non-null hypothesis of Rankin-SelbergL-function."
Hearing that it was related to the proof of the non-null hypothesis of the L-function, Mo Kun frowned slightly, took his cell phone from the table, and opened Prestige.
[Fields Medal winner Professor Artur Avila publicly questioned Professor Mo Kun of Peking University’s proof of the non-null hypothesis of the Rankin-Selberg L-function as suspected plagiarism. 】
"Recently, we interviewed the famous Brazilian mathematician, Professor Artur Avila, who won the Fields Medal in 2014."
"In this interview, Professor Avila raised serious questions and accusations against Professor Mo Kun, Professor of Mathematics at Peking University."
"Previously, Professor Mo Kun completed the proof of the non-null hypothesis of the Rankin-Selberg L-function. This hypothesis is an important core issue in the famous Langlands Program in mathematics. According to Professor Avila, the Langlands Program leads to The ultimate proposition in mathematics—the grand unified theory—is the goal pursued by generations of mathematicians.”
"But in this interview, Professor Avila said that the core theory and some calculation data of the proof paper published by Professor Mo Kun came from others and were not Professor Mo's original theory."
"."
"Handheld Hot News will keep an eye on this matter and continue to report for you."
After reading the news, Mo Kun frowned and his breathing became heavier.
On the side, Zhou Xin suddenly became upset.
What is he doing here in a hurry?
This report is not good news. Why do you want to be such a standout?
Not to mention whether there is plagiarism or not, just the accusation from a Fields Medal winner is enough to plunge people into a whirlwind.
Before, I just thought about telling my teacher about this quickly, but I didn't think about the consequences.
Gan!
I hope it won't affect my graduation.
Thinking about it, Zhou Xin shrank back again, trying his best to reduce his presence to avoid being angered.
However, unexpectedly, Mo Kun did not get angry. He just told him calmly: "Zhou Xin, help me contact the reporter of this news company. I want to respond to this matter."
Zhou Xin was stunned for a moment before he came to his senses and said quickly: "I'll go right away."
After saying that, he ran away quickly, but a doubt arose in his heart.
"Is there something hidden in this? Or are plagiarism and other rumors just rumors? After all, choosing to respond proactively to this matter must be a bit sure?"
No matter what Zhou Xin thought, Mo Kun looked at the report on his phone and snorted.
"This foreign devil is really lenient."
Shaking his head, Mo Kun put down his phone.
He had expected this incident for a long time, but he didn't expect that the whirlpool of public opinion would come so quickly, with the paper coming just a few days after it was published.
But fortunately, he was prepared.
The media reporters from "Handheld Hot News" came very quickly. After receiving contact from Zhou Xin, they immediately arranged for a beautiful reporter and a photographer to come to interview.
"Hello, Professor Mo, I am Lin Qing, a reporter from 'Palm Hot News'."
The beautiful reporter held the microphone and walked towards Mo Kun with a bright smile.
When they were sued by Brazilian Fields Medalist Professor Artur Avila, they were keenly aware that this might be breaking news.
A Fields Medal winner, a mathematics professor at Peking University, a plagiarism incident in academia, and Xu Chuan, the top scorer in the college entrance examination, each one has its own huge popularity.
If these things are put together, if they work well, there will be no problem in being on the hot search or even ranking first in the hot search.
Yesterday, they were still thinking about how to contact Professor Mo Kun and Xu Chuan, the people involved this time. Unexpectedly, someone would give them pillows when they fell asleep today. Professor Mo Kun from Peking University actually took the initiative to contact them.
"Hello, Reporter Lin." Mo Kun greeted.
"Um, Professor Mo, is it convenient for you now? If so, can we start the interview now?" After saying hello, Lin Qing went straight to the topic and asked.
Mo Kun nodded and said yes.
"I heard that you proved the non-zero hypothesis of the L-function in the Langlands Program in early September? Can you give us a detailed introduction?" Mo Kun nodded and said seriously: "Of course."
"The non-null hypothesis of the Rankin-Selberg L-function is one of the core issues concerning L-functions in the Langlands program."
"If the Langlands Program is regarded as a building, the problem of the non-zero hypothesis of the L function is the cornerstone of this building."
Mo Kun talked loudly, while Lin Qing took a voice recorder and recorded the content completely.
"Professor Mo, what do you think about the recent 'plagiarism' questioning of you by Brazilian mathematician Professor Artur Avila? Is it true, as Professor Avila said, that you have used other people's theories and calculations?" Data?”
Mo Kun: “First of all, I want to solemnly declare that I did not plagiarize, and Professor Avila’s accusations against me are unfounded.”
"The cause of this matter was at the Morning Star Mathematics Award in May this year. At that time, Professor Avila and I had an exchange at the party. This time I was inspired to prove the non-null hypothesis of the L-function from this exchange. .”
"In other words, you did use other people's theories?" Lin Qing couldn't wait to interject and asked.
Mo Kun frowned and replied with some annoyance: "That's true about this, but I also mentioned Professor Artur Avila and others at the end of the paper and expressed my gratitude to them."
“I don’t think there’s anything wrong with using my own and other people’s ideas for communication, since I’m the main person in this communication.”
"So Professor Avila's accusation against me is unfounded. There is no such rule in academia. A scholar cannot use his own communication ideas to prove mathematical conjectures."
Hearing this, Lin Qing, a beautiful reporter from Palm Hot News, brightened up and quickly asked: "So you didn't plagiarize? The inspiration for proving the non-null hypothesis of the L-function just came from your previous communication with Professor Avila. ?”
Mo Kun nodded and said: "Yes, I don't know how this false accusation of plagiarism was arranged on my head, but it is obviously unreasonable."
CERN, Xu Chuan has completed a report on the "optimal search decay channel for the Yukawa coupling of Higgs and third-generation heavy quarks".
As expected, this new achievement of calculating physical theory through mathematical methods surprised everyone when it appeared.
Physicists participating in this report were talking a lot.
"It is really surprising that the Yukawa coupling energy level of the Higgs and the third-generation heavy quark is actually closer to the energy level of the Higgs particle."
"I was even more surprised by the method he used. Although I don't know much about mathematics, this aspect really opened my eyes to the fact that mathematics can be used in this way."
"This is mathematical physics, right? The thinking of young people is really amazing, and the leaps and bounds are so powerful."
"Perhaps this is just a wrong method. According to previous theories, the Yukawa coupling energy level of Higgs and third-generation heavy quarks should appear above 150Gev, not as low as 128Gev, which has been the case for countless Higgs in the past. The experience summarized from the Sri Lankan particle decay experiment”
"The calculations are not necessarily correct, and experience may also be problematic. After all, we know too little about things at the micro level, don't we?"
“I heard that CERN had temporarily jumped in to arrange experiments. Just a week later, I don’t know which unlucky guy was squeezed out.”
In the venue, many physicists were constantly communicating.
This is not a new path. This idea has been around for a long time, but unfortunately, this path is difficult and requires calculators to have extremely high mathematical and physical abilities at the same time.
So no one has been able to make any achievements in this area.
A result in this area suddenly appeared today, how can we not be surprised?
There are many people who agree with this use of mathematical methods to calculate physical theories, because on the surface, there is no problem with this report and the paper.
Moreover, this has been certified by the CERN Council, and a collision experiment was specially arranged for it to temporarily jump in line.
Therefore, considering all aspects, the Yukawa coupling energy level of Higgs and third-generation heavy quarks is most likely to be in the range of 128Gev~131Gev.
It is also worthwhile to temporarily arrange a collision experiment for verification.
Of course, if there are those who agree, there will naturally be those who oppose it.
There are many people who oppose it. The main theory is that based on the experience of previous particle collision experiments, the Yukawa coupling energy level of Higgs and third-generation heavy quarks should be in the range of 150Gev or even higher, not Close to the energy level region where the Higgs particle appears.
The number 128Gev completely violates past practical experience.
In particular, those at a certain atomic power research institute in Korea were particularly fierce in their opposition to this.
But this also has something to do with the fact that their application for this year's collision experiment was pushed to next year.
That's right, a certain atomic power research institute was the unlucky guy who was temporarily squeezed out by Xu Chuan because he cut in line. Their collision application was directly pushed to next year.
Therefore, I asked various questions at the report meeting, trying to cause trouble for Xu Chuan, and wanting to prove that there were huge flaws in this calculation paper and that it was not worth using a collision experiment to verify.
But it is a pity that there are very few people in the entire Atomic Energy Research Institute who understand mathematics. Even if they can understand the calculation process, they cannot find any flaws or problems.
The few areas that he barely found that he thought were problematic were easily resolved by Xu Chuan.
The report ended and Xu Chuan came down from the podium.
Overall, this report meeting was quite successful. Although a bunch of superficial and even wrong questions were asked in the final question-and-answer session by someone who didn’t know whether it was Korea or a small island country, this set of calculation papers , is still accepted by many physicists.
And the support level is more than half, which is enough for subsequent collision verification experiments to continue.
At CERN, if many physicists jointly complain about a collision experiment, even if it is a collision experiment that has been decided long ago, CERN will consider whether to continue it.
After all, CERN cannot do without the support of these physicists from all over the world. Without many physicists, the LHC cannot continue to operate.
After leaving the venue, Xu Chuan returned to the hotel.
The report will be completed, the collision experiment has been arranged, and all that is left is to wait for a week.
When I turned on my phone, someone sent me a message on Weixin, including news about Professor Mo Kun of Peking University’s targeted response.
".There is no plagiarism, and Professor Avila's accusations against me are unfounded."
"Inspiration does come from communication, but I am the main person in communication."
".There is no such rule in academia that a scholar cannot use his or her communication ideas to prove mathematical conjectures."
".I don't know how this false accusation of plagiarism was arranged on my head."
The news on Palm Hot News detailed their interview with Mo Kun, and Xu Chuan laughed angrily after reading the detailed report.
TMD, you are so shameless!
I have never seen such a shameless person.
