Chapter 195 Going to Beijing for a Meeting

Facts have proved that if you don't push yourself, you will never know how much potential you have.

When all the work was done, even Lu Zhou himself was shocked by his speed, and even in a week, he sorted out this paper, which was no less than the proof of the Polignac conjecture.

Of course, this is also related to the related work he has done before, and this week's work is just sorting out.

The dissertation has fifteen pages in total, and the title is very simple, with only one sentence - "A method for the study of the overall structure of group theory".

Of course, it is empty to talk about the method without talking about the effect. In order to prove the superiority of his own mathematical method in solving infinite problems, he specially found two "examples".

One is the problem of infinity of prime numbers, and the other is Wilson's theorem.

These two questions have almost become the touchstones in the number theory field. Simply summarizing the various methods of proving these two propositions is enough to pull out and write a paper.

Similar to this are Euler's theorem and Fermat's little theorem. Originally, Lu Zhou planned to pull out these two propositions for fun, but these two propositions themselves already have quite simple group theory proof methods.

Especially the latter, so simple that it can be done in only three lines, there is really no room for improvement.

Using his method again, it would be superfluous.

Finally, before the deadline, Lu Zhou uploaded the paper.

...

On the morning of October 20th, Lu Zhou dragged his suitcase, boarded the plane with Academician Lu, and flew from Jinling to Shanghai.

The organizer of this year's academic conference is Beijing Normal University, and the organizer is naturally the Huaguo Mathematical Society.

Because it happened to be the 80th anniversary of the Huaguo Mathematical Society, the scene of this conference was extraordinarily grand. Not only many domestic academic leaders attended the meeting, but also some internationally renowned mathematicians and international friends in related fields were also invited to attend the meeting.

The place of accommodation is arranged at the Dilong Hotel next to Beijing Normal University. As an invited guest, the cost of board and lodging has been borne by the organizer, and Lu Zhou only needs to pay a registration fee of 800 yuan.

But this little money, his boss, Academician Lu, has already paid for him, so he doesn't need to worry about it.

I have to say that it is still very cool to do research with a boss who is not short of money.

Of course, the premise is that you have to be awesome enough.

After arriving at the Capital Airport, the two dragged their suitcases and got into Brother Yan's car.

Chatting all the way, after arriving at the hotel, Senior Brother Yan parked the car in the underground garage, and followed the two of them to the elevator.

Looking at Senior Brother Yan who followed, Lu Zhou was a little surprised and couldn't help asking.

"Brother, are you also attending this meeting?"

Senior Brother Yan smiled embarrassingly, before he could speak, Academician Lu spoke for him: "He's just here to join in the fun, you don't need to worry about him."

Senior Brother Yan smiled and said, "How can you say that you are here to join in the fun? Aren't I cheering for my senior brother?"

When Lu Zhou heard this, he was immediately embarrassed, and said with a smile: "Why is this so embarrassing? I just came to the stage to give a report, not to report any major research results."

Brother Yan seemed to know something already, he patted him on the shoulder with a smile, winked and said: "Be humble, brother, I will congratulate you in advance! By the way, aren't you going to give a report on stage? Do you want to do it?" A hairstyle or something? Looks more energetic."

Lu Zhou: "...?"

Academician Lu smiled and said nothing, Lu Zhou's face was confused.

I always feel that these two people have something to hide from him.

As if he was the only one kept in the dark...

...

When he arrived at the hotel, Lu Zhou put his suitcase away, and then went to the lobby for dinner.

Today is mainly about reporting and getting the admission pass, and the official start will start on the 21st tomorrow.

Until the departure on the 25th, the conference will last for a total of five days.

Because of an important conference, the entire hotel has been booked out by the Huaguo Mathematical Society.

After eating, Lu Zhou looked up and found that the average age of those sitting in the venue eating was around 40 or 50 years old. He is a master student in his early twenties sitting here, searching the entire restaurant, except for the waiters in the hotel, he is the youngest.

After finishing dinner in a hurry, Lu Zhou wiped his mouth with a tissue, got up and went back to his room.

However, just as he was walking towards the elevator, someone suddenly greeted him and walked over with a familiar smile.

"Hello, you are Lu Zhou!"

"Yes, you are...?" Lu Zhou glanced at him suspiciously, without any impression.

"Wei Siyang, a Ph.D. student at Aurora University." Holding Lu Zhou's hand, the young man smiled and complimented, "I saw your live report at the Princeton Academic Conference, but I didn't have the chance to chat with you at that time. The last two sentences, I have really admired your name for a long time!"

"Don't dare to be, what's the big name... I'm lucky to meet you," Lu Zhou smiled shyly.

Although he knew that he was awesome, every time others praised him, he couldn't help feeling embarrassed.

Wei Siyang smiled, and continued to introduce the old man behind him to Lu Zhou, "Let me introduce to you, this is Professor Ma Changan, my boss, a master in algebraic geometry, 17 years of Chinese Academy of Sciences Popular candidate for academician!"

This Professor Ma has a very characteristic face, with a long face, maybe he has been in an administrative position, and his demeanor looks a bit majestic.

Hearing his student's introduction, Professor Ma Chang'an waved his hand with a smile, and reprimanded his student, "What hot candidate, don't brag for me, the organization hasn't decided yet, but you decided for me."

Although he reprimanded his student, it can be seen that he still likes this casual flattery very much.

After a pause, Professor Ma looked at Lu Zhou and smiled, and continued, "I have done 30 years of research, but I have only made some small achievements, which are not worth mentioning. But you young people are young and promising. , is really admirable."

"Professor Ma, you are overrated. I still have a lot to learn." Lu Zhou smiled and said modestly.

"Humility is a good thing, but I think it's okay for you to be proud of what you have achieved at such an age." After a pause, Professor Ma smiled and continued, "I heard that you are studying wave Lignac conjecture?"

The research projects declared by tens of thousands of people do not involve confidential content such as national defense, and are basically open to the public. And even if it is confidential content, if the confidentiality level is not high, it is not a secret to the bosses in this line of work.

Moreover, there was nothing to hide, Lu Zhou said with a smile.

"Yes."

Professor Ma raised his eyebrows with interest: "Which step has the research reached?"

Lu Zhou smiled and said casually, "Some progress has been made."

The review of major mathematical conjectures is generally very slow. Although it has been almost two months now, he doesn't think it is strange even if it is reviewed for another two months.

The "Annual of Mathematics" has not responded until now, and the official website still has the status of peer review. He can't say whether he passed the test, so he dare not rashly say that he has proved it.

Unexpectedly, after hearing what he said, Professor Ma Changan showed a look of interest on his face, and said with a smile, "Oh? It seems that you already have an idea?"

Lu Zhou smiled and said, "That's right."

Ma Changan smiled: "It's just right, I also have some research on number theory, why don't you show me your paper and let's exchange ideas?"

Lu Zhou froze for a moment, and looked at the old professor with a hint of doubt.

In academia, asking to see other people's unpublished research results is a presumptuous request.

What's more, I am not his student, and I have no reason to accept his guidance.

After thinking for a while, Lu Zhou smiled and declined, "There is no need for communication. I like to study math problems alone, so I won't waste your precious time."
