The mathematics department's auditorium was overcrowded.
Any one of them was a famous mathematics expert.
At the end of the auditorium, there were reporters from various newspapers who had set up all kinds of guns and cannons.
Lin Yi was famous on the internet. Coupled with his identity as a full-time professor, he claimed to have solved the twin prime conjecture.
Every single one of them was worth digging into.
These reporters were like sharks that smelled blood and swarmed over.
Lin Yi stepped into the auditorium.
Instantly, everyone's gaze gathered on him.
Suspicion, denial, anticipation, excitement…
There were many.
Lin Yi's gaze swept across everyone below the stage and he smiled indifferently.
Back then, the Princeton Institute of Mathematics was much bigger than this.
It was a gathering of world-renowned mathematicians and the most famous news media from all over the world. The questions raised were even more tricky and strange.
He managed to answer all of them and even won the reputation of being the light of the new generation of mathematics.
Stand still in front of the podium!
Lin Yi gently patted the microphone.
"Hello…can you hear me? It's from the third spiral arm of the Milky Way, serial number: Greetings from the planet."
Those below the stage understood what Lin Yi meant and could not help but chuckle.
Lin Yi didn't mind and continued his speech.
"If you can hear me, please don't answer! I repeat, please do not answer!"
This time, more people laughed.
Lin Yi's words came from a famous science fiction novel. Earth's serial number in those two science fiction novels was **!
The two novels were about the same idea, the law of the universe's dark forest.
It meant that the entire universe was like a dark forest, and hunters with guns wandered in it. If anyone dared to make a noise, they would only be met with merciless bullets!
"Everyone here must be very curious. Today's report is clearly about mathematics. Why did I mention two lines from science fiction!”
With just two sentences, Lin Yi had already attracted everyone's attention.
There was no more noise in the auditorium.
"The universe is like a puzzle, beautiful and mysterious. Countless scientists rushed forward, wanting to solve this puzzle and find an eternal answer. Mathematics was the same. The famous poet Novalis once said that mathematics was a puzzle, and without a puzzle, there was no mathematics! Our job as mathematicians is to clear the fog and find the truth.”
"What I'm going to talk about next is the concept of the Ricci flow.”
" As we all know, all of our previous solutions to the topographic equations have problems with large deviation values, and the Ricci flow..."
……
Lin Yi unhurriedly dismantled the Ricci flow bit by bit and presented it completely in front of everyone.
The scholars below the stage nodded repeatedly, and few people refuted.
Among them, only a scholar sitting in the last row did not seem to agree with Lin Yi's statement.
He stared at Lin Yi on the podium and said angrily," Elder Xiong, this kid really has the guts to say that. Topologies have been developed for more than 70 years, and it has always been a standard equation solution. Why is the deviation too large when it comes to him? I don't believe that there is a more suitable mathematical tool in this world!”
The scholar was thirty-one years old and a full-time professor at Binhai University of Science and Technology.
If he wasn't compared to Lin Yi, he could be considered a genius scholar who became famous at a young age.
However, when compared to Lin Yi, all his so-called honor was crushed into dust.
Some time ago, Academician Zhao Wenjun brought the Ricci Flow to Kyoto and gathered more than 300 well-known mathematicians in the country for 17 reports.
After a vigorous discussion, the scholars were clearly divided into two factions.
The first was to support the Ricci flow. They felt that this set of mathematical tools was more advanced and more suitable for the equations of geometric topography.
Others were stubborn supporters of the standard solution. They felt that the standard solution had been popular for more than 70 years and that there was no more advanced mathematical tool than the standard solution.
The person who spoke just now was a full-time professor in the mathematics department of Binhai University of Science and Technology. He specialized in the study of topography and was a staunch supporter of the standard solution.
Xiong Wenyan, whose hair was graying, was the leader of the group.
But even Xiong Wenyan had to admit that Lin Yi was proficient in topography.
He glanced at his colleague beside him and said indifferently,"Academies are academics. They shouldn't be mixed with any personal feelings. Putting aside the problem of redundant prime numbers, at least the Kyoto conference had given the correct judgment on the Ricci flow.”
"But Elder Xiong, this kid is only twenty-one years old. How can he have such a mathematical foundation!”
"Xiao Li, you've been doing research with me for so many years. Why don't you know that you can't judge a book by its cover? If Lin Yi really solved the problem of redundant prime numbers, I would be willing to join them!”
Xiong Wenyan was a famous mathematician for many years. Other than his stubborn personality, his academic reputation was not bad.
In other words, those who studied mathematics were mostly reclusive, but they definitely didn't like to cheat in mathematics.
This was because mathematics was a rigorous and precise method!
After saying that, Xiong Wenyan's originally cloudy eyes suddenly burst out with a brilliant light.
"Let me, this old man, test whether you are worthy of the title of super genius!”
