Chapter 326 Tao Zhexuan with full firepower
To be honest, Xu Chuan was almost amused by these comments.
If I can understand this paper, it should be impossible to solve the Millennium Problem. If I don’t understand the paper, then I’d better not read it.
To a certain extent, this actually makes sense.
Because cutting-edge scientific theories, whether mathematics or physics, are basically far away from the general public.
How far is it?
It's probably some mathematical physics symbols in these papers that you don't even know what they are called and can't read them out.
In this case, it can be said that the vast majority of melon-eating netizens cannot understand cutting-edge scientific papers.
As for Professor Jiang Kangcai's theoretical paper, although it was indeed published in SCI journals, it was not a top journal that accepted his paper.
It's a magazine called Entropy, physics type.
This is an international and interdisciplinary journal focusing on entropy and information research, publishing reviews, regular research papers and briefings.
The goal is to encourage scientists to publish as many details of their theories and experiments as possible. There is no limit on the length of the paper.
Since it is of an encouraging nature, it means that it is not difficult to review, and based on the impact factor, it seems that it is less than 2.5 in his memory?
SCI is indeed true, but it can only be regarded as average or even below average.
If the paper is submitted, there is a high probability that it will be classified in the second or third area of SCI search.
Moreover, in the past few years, the Entropy journal was included in the international journal warning list on the grounds that the journal was academically untrue.
How to put it this way, this type of journal is okay as a place to collect inspiration or ideas, but as an academic journal on cutting-edge science, forget it.
After reading the news, Xu Chuan threw his phone aside. To him, this was just a joke.
As for responding to the "Washington Times" statement, he does not have so much time to pay attention to such a notorious media.
"Professor, aren't you going to respond?" Gu Bing, who was paying attention to the situation here, couldn't help but ask after seeing him throw the phone aside.
In his opinion, this was a complete slander and insult to his mentor and he couldn't stand it!
Xu Chuan smiled faintly and said: "It is a complete waste of time to deal with this kind of media."
"If I really responded to them, I would be adding popularity and traffic to them. I would just have fun watching what such people do. If I have this time, I might as well do something of my own."
Gu Bing opened his mouth, but stopped talking.
Xu Chuan didn't pay much attention to it. To be honest, if he hadn't been reborn once, he would most likely fight back at his current age.
But now, he has no trouble in his heart.
However, Tao Zhexuan was involved, and maybe he might 'express' his views and opinions online.
On the other side, it was just as Xu Chuan expected.
At this moment, Tao Zhexuan is in full swing online.
After noticing that the Washington Times had implicated him, he directly logged on to his blog to respond head-on.
[First: I have never supported the theories of Professor Jiang Kangcai of Rice University, and I have not even read his theories and papers! 】
[Second: I have always expected a smooth solution to the NS equation! 】
[Third: The Washington Times is an unscrupulous media. In the past, it mainly focused on spreading rumors and fabricating various news to smear others. It has absolutely no spirit that a news media should have! 】
[Fourth: Regarding the paper I wrote in 2015 on constructing a counterexample to the NS equation, that does not mean that I support that the NS equation does not have a smooth solution, but it only refers to the abstract proof idea of the Kazakhstan mathematics professor as a way to verify his The evidence used in the paper is seriously flawed! 】
[Fifth: I am very optimistic about Professor Xu’s paper, he is a real scholar.]
With a long list of eloquent comments, Tao Zhexuan went straight to the blog.
People who follow him were immediately stunned by Tao Zhexuan's blog.
After all, in traditional impressions, Tao comes across as quite friendly, even a little cute.
Even though he is already at the pinnacle of mathematics and has won the Fields Medal, if you ask him for help with a math question online, as long as it is a formal question, he will basically reply.
Even if this question is just a basic question raised by a college student, which he can easily solve and is worthless to him, it is still possible to get his reply.
Even if someone occasionally teases him online, Tao has never been so sarcastic.
But it has to be said that this time, he directly attracted everyone's attention, so that no one commented and looked forward to Xu Chuan's reply.
[Hey guys, Professor Tao has started a group! 】
[Hahahaha, I was laughing so hard. The Washington Times was scolded. 】
[I knew it, what good things could this notorious media do? 】
[Le, Professor Tao directly rejected all parts of the media reports about him. 】【It is impossible to have a smooth solution to the NS equation! Even Professor Xu Chuan may not be correct. Professor Jiang Kangcai’s theory from Rice University has been reviewed and published in a journal, but Professor Xu’s is just a paper, and there may be major errors in it! 】
[Hehe, you must have a stupid mouth. 】
[Top professors such as Terence Tao, Fefferman, and Gowers have all stated that they have read Professor Xu’s paper and expressed their support. You are the only one, right? 】
[Oh, by the way, the paper submitted by Jiang Kangcai you supported was only submitted to a physics magazine called ‘Entropy’. The current impact factor is only 2.089, and it has been included in the international journal warning list. It is SCI, yes, but it is a typical junk SCI journal. 】
Controversy on the Internet exploded immediately after Tao Zhexuan started the group.
The debate that was evenly divided before has now become one-sided.
As for Xu Chuan's reply, netizens still haven't seen it, but it doesn't matter anymore. Those infamous things done by the "Washington Times" have been exposed.
Some people who didn’t know much about it discovered that this journal was such a piece of garbage.
As time goes by, December is coming.
The ancient city of Jinling is bustling with activity again, and flights from all over the world have landed here.
The arrival of many mathematicians and physicists gave the city an academic atmosphere once again.
For the Jinling Municipal Government and Nanjing University, the report on the NS equation is undoubtedly the most grand academic exchange in history.
The Municipal Government Office and the teachers from NTU’s Government Affairs Office communicated with each other and formulated a comprehensive and detailed reception process.
From cleaning up garbage advertisements on roadside houses and street lights, to traffic coordination, to arranging and communicating with hotels near NTU, to safety issues for scholars who come to participate in exchange meetings, etc., NTU released a report on its official website in mid-November. After a while, preparations began.
This kind of world-class academic symposium, which has at least more than 3,000 scholars present and attracts the attention of the physics and mathematics circles, may not be encountered even if it is held internationally for several years.
For a report meeting of this scale, both the Jinling Municipal Government and Nanjing University strive to be perfect. After all, if something goes wrong, it will be embarrassing to the whole world.
At the end of November, downstairs of the New Era Hotel building near NTU.
An old man wearing a windbreaker and dragging a suitcase got out of the taxi.
He happened to bump into another middle-aged scholar wearing a gray-black suit and black-rimmed glasses, who was also dragging a suitcase.
Seeing the person coming, the old man took the initiative to walk up with his suitcase and said hello: "You are here too, Tao."
Hearing the voice, Terence Tao raised his head, saw the old man in front of him and responded with a smile: "Of course, no one in the mathematics community would want to miss such an event."
Deligne sighed: "Indeed, except for the quadrennial International Mathematics Congress, it is rare to have such an opportunity to gather so many old friends. Mathematics continues, but we are all getting older."
Terence Tao smiled and said: "There will always be someone who inherits our knowledge, and it will always flow in civilization."
Hearing this, Deligne seemed to have thought of something, smiled and said: "Yes, civilization will never be immortal, and there will always be people who will pass it on."
Tao Zhexuan also smiled, dragging his suitcase and the two of them walked side by side towards the hotel.
The next day, the report on the existence of smooth solutions to the NS equation will officially begin.
Before nine o'clock, the auditorium of Nanda's old campus was already crowded and dark.
The buzzing sound of discussions filled every square meter in the auditorium, and everyone was looking forward to it and waiting.
Following the invitation, Edward Witten came to the front row of the auditorium and found his seat. On the left was Deligne, and the figure on the right surprised him.
"Why are you here? Isn't there still a lot to do at CERN?" Witten asked in surprise, looking at the figure sitting on the red chair.
Roger Penrose smiled and said: "I studied not only physics, but also mathematics. And that's what happened at CERN. Besides, I'm not the only one who came here. If you don't believe it, look over there."
As he spoke, Roger Penrose gently pointed in the direction, and Edward Witten looked around. All he saw were familiar people.
Frank Wilczek, Alan Guth, Kip Thorne.
Good guys, half of the top theoretical physicists who often work at CERN are here.
"Why are you all here?" Witten asked again after taking a glance. To be honest, he was a little surprised by the people who came here. After all, everyone's research direction was basically not in mathematics and fluid mechanics.
Penrose smiled and said: "I came because I am interested in mathematics. As for them, they probably want to talk about physics or astronomy with your student."
Witten thought for a moment, nodded, and said: "Okay, he can do it."
Penrose smiled and said: "What about you, if you have such a student, why don't you teach him things related to string theory and quantum field theory? Maybe he can help you solve string theory problems and win a Nobel Prize? ”
Witten coughed and said: "If you want to win the Nobel Prize with my string theory, I'm afraid you have to wait until he also becomes a bad old man. I will be gone by then, so why bother adding to his burden?"
Penrose joked: "Is it possible that you didn't expect this student to be so outstanding and graduated before you even had time to teach him?"
Edward Witten: "."
