The crowd went silent for a few seconds.
Those who knew Lu Zhou knew who the person standing next to the blackboard was. Otherwise, they wouldn't have listened so attentively.
However, for Chen Yang, the name "Lu Zhou" was like a bolt of lightning.
Over the past month and a half, all of the hyperelliptic curve analysis methods that he researched, as well as all of the improvements he made, including the source of inspiration, came from Lu Zhou's Annual Mathematics thesis.
He didn't expect the author of the thesis to be standing right in front of him!
"Lu … Lu Zhou?"
Chen Yang wasn't the only one who was shocked. The guy wearing a baseball cap, who was standing outside the crowd, widened his eyes and reached out his right hand.
"You, you, you, you're Lu Zhou?! Academician Lu from Jin Ling Mathematics Department? "
Looking at his brother's excited look and the gazes of the people around him, the little fatty standing next to him nervously wanted to pull his hand, but he shook it off.
He felt like this guy in the baseball cap looked familiar, but he didn't have any recollection of him.
Lu Zhou looked at him and spoke with a smile.
"Little brother, have we met somewhere before?"
The boy wearing the cap said excitedly. He didn't expect that this week would recognize him.
"Yeah! On the plane! "
On the plane?
Lu Zhou had a look of realization on his face.
Oh, so it's that kid.
The boy was so excited that his ears almost turned red, and he spoke incoherently.
"My name is Ji Mo, I'm your fan, I really admire you!"
Lu Zhou: "…"
Fan?
I don't believe you!
You don't even know what I look like, and you're my fan?
Do you think I'm stupid?
The teenager with the baseball cap continued to chatter excitedly without noticing the expression on Lu Zhou's face.
"I've read Professor Feng Keqin's book, 'New Edition of Number Theory'. It mentions the Group Structure Method that you created, as well as the report on Goldbach's conjecture in Princeton Lecture Hall One … It's amazing!"
"… Okay, okay, let's go back."
Fatty, who was standing next to him, tugged at his sleeve and looked around awkwardly.
No one was looking at them anymore. Not only that, but the most awkward thing was that Academician Lu had already turned his head away, completely ignoring his friend who was overly enthusiastic. He left Lu Zhou alone and spoke with relish.
This is terrible!
Academician Wang Shicheng finally finished reading the calculations on the blackboard. He calmly clapped his hands and praised Lu Zhou.
"Wonderful, truly wonderful."
He didn't know what was so amazing about Lu Zhou's work. Even though Lu Zhou was also in algebraic geometry, knot theory and Hodge problems were completely different.
If he was younger, he might be able to keep up with Lu Zhou's pace. However, at his age, it was already amazing that he could understand what Lu Zhou was doing.
"Academician Wang, you're too kind, it's not amazing, it's just a simple application of this mathematical tool."
Lu Zhou smiled and nodded. He then turned to look at the dumbfounded young man and said, "Your research is interesting. Even though I can see various applications of the hyperelliptic curve analysis method on arXiv, this is the first time I've seen someone improve on it and apply it to the algebraic topology of a non-singular complex algebraic cluster and the polynomial equation that defines its subclusters. "
"You're too kind." Chen Yang lowered his head and said, "It took me a month and a half to come up with this, but you spent less than an hour to come up with this."
Professor Yang Yongan couldn't help but mutter, "No sh * t. How can you compare to Academician Lu? "
"Don't say that, I just happened to study the hyperelliptic curve analysis method a lot. After reading Mr. Chen's calculations, I had some ideas."
Professor Yang shook his head and Lu Zhou looked at Chen Yang, who had a shocked expression on his face.
"The best way to polish a mathematical tool is to find a matching problem to try and perfect your theory through trial and error.
"Since this research method can prove that the Hodge conjecture is true for H ^ 2, it means that your idea is likely to work. You just need more research."
Chen Yang pushed his glasses up the bridge of his nose and thought for a second. He then asked in a serious tone, "Do you have any good suggestions?"
"See more, think more, try more." Lu Zhou smiled and said, "Mathematics is a test of talent, but when it comes to deep research, there aren't many techniques. This is very similar to the research of other disciplines. Any seemingly ingenious results are nothing more than the accumulation of countless trials and errors. "
Professor Yang Yongan listened on the side with a thoughtful expression on his face.
The boy in the cap lowered his head and repeated the words over and over again, as if he was savoring the true meaning behind them.
"… See more, think more, try more … Countless trials and errors … Is this the same for mathematics?"
Academician Wang Shicheng was standing in the crowd. Even though he was expressionless, he couldn't help but nod in admiration.
Although this theory was easy to understand, there were very few people who could really understand it. It took him a full ten years to summarize this point, and then he used the remaining ten years to make outstanding research results on the knot theory.
But now, Wang Shicheng looked at Lu Zhou and casually said what he had spent ten years to understand. In addition to shock and emotion, there was only admiration in Wang Shicheng's heart.
I have to give it to Lu Zhou …
Although he sometimes felt that this guy's success was filled with many coincidences, when he thought about it this way, there was definitely an element of luck and opportunity, but it didn't seem to be everything.
Lu Zhou looked around and spoke after thinking for a moment.
"It seems like no one here understands your research."
Chen Yang didn't deny this. He nodded with a wooden expression and spoke naturally.
"After all, I chose a research project that is basically impossible to complete."
"Not necessarily." Lu Zhou smiled and shook his head. He said, "It's too early to jump to conclusions before you see an obvious bottleneck. At least in my opinion, you're still far from a real bottleneck. Just from the things written on the blackboard in front of you, the research ideas you've chosen are promising. Even if you can't produce the final results, it's more than enough to produce in-progress results. "
Although this guy's personality was a bit dull, and he was a bit meticulous, he looked like he was made for mathematics. He just lacked some polishing.
If Lu Zhou were to put it in the mathematics center and let him build it behind closed doors, it would be fine if he could build it, but it would be a waste if he could not build it.
Lu Zhou didn't care that Academician Wang Shicheng was next to him. He couldn't help but reach out his right hand.
"Don't you want to come to Jinling?"
"I can guarantee that you will find someone there to discuss with."
