Chapter 711
Princeton University.
Dean Lietz is currently the dean of the Institute for Advanced Mathematics at Princeton University.
The "Annals of Mathematics" is under the overall jurisdiction of the Institute of Advanced Mathematics.
so.
In a sense, it can be said that Dean Lietz is the top leader of "Annals of Mathematics".
its status.
Even higher than Macron's editor-in-chief "New Advances in Mathematics".
Dean Lietz is very old, so he sleeps very lightly.
then.
When there is a knock on the door.
Dean Lietz was immediately awakened.
"Who is it?" Dean Lietz put on his clothes and called towards the door.
"Dean, it's me!" A voice came from outside the door.
Dean Leitz was very familiar with this voice, and he quickly recognized that the person knocking on the door was one of his disciples, Berne Lesko.
Open the door.
Dean Lietz's disciple Bourne stood at the door anxiously.
"Is there something urgent that comes to me so late?" Dean Lietz knew that his disciple had always had a steady personality.
This time he came over so hurriedly and knocked on the door so late. Something important must have happened.
Bourne nodded heavily and said directly, "Dean, the 'Geometry-Algebra-Topology Grand Unified Theory' that you have always asked me to pay attention to has made new progress!"
Upon hearing this, Dean Lietz's face suddenly became serious.
"Has Gu Lu discovered a new piece of the puzzle?" Dean Lietz asked aloud.
Bourne shook his head.
Dean Lietz was confused.
But at the end of the day, Byrne did not leave Dean Leitz confused for too long.
After shaking his head, Byrne immediately explained to the teacher, "Dean, it's not that another new piece of the puzzle has come out, but... Gu Lu has directly constructed a unified theory of geometry, algebra and topology!"
Wha...what?!
Dean Lietz's figure swayed.
If Byrne hadn't been there to hold him up quickly, Dean Lietz would have fallen to the ground.
"Is what you said true?" Dean Lietz raised his head and looked at Bourne with burning eyes and said.
Byrne came prepared.
Open the briefcase directly, take out the laptop, log in to the arxiv website, and find Gu Lu's paper.
“This is it!”
Byrne showed it to Dean Letts.
After Dean Letts saw this paper, he was convinced of Bourne's words.
"Has anyone verified it?" Dean Lietz asked while browsing the abstract of this paper.
Bourne smiled bitterly and said, "Dean, this paper was uploaded to arxiv by Gu Lucai just an hour ago. And, look at the length of this paper, it is more than 800 pages. The verification work is basically
It can’t be done in a short time.”
"Also, as far as I know, Gu Lu has not yet submitted this paper."
"Oh?" At the mention of this, Dean Lietz's face suddenly turned rosy, "It's not in "New Advances in Mathematics" either?"
Dean Lietz thought that, based on the relationship between Law Law and Editor-in-Chief Macron, this paper would have been submitted to "New Advances in Mathematics" a long time ago!
Bourne shook his head and answered firmly, "No."
"Hahaha!" Dean Lietz put his hands on his hips and laughed a few times, "It's not good, it's not good!"
If there is no submission to "New Advances in Mathematics", that means they still have a chance.
Even though, this chance is very small.
But no matter what the outcome is, you still have to fight for it.
"Annals of Mathematics" is currently the number one journal in mathematics.
but……
No matter how arrogant the Annals of Mathematics is, it cannot let such an excellent paper slip away.
The value of Gu Lu’s paper.
Not only Editor-in-Chief Macron knows this, but Dean Lietz also knows it.
"Hey, I shouldn't have turned against Gu Lu in the first place." Looking at Gu Lu's worthless article, Dean Lietz sighed with a wry smile.
In fact, Gu Lu was a graduate student at Princeton University.
Logically speaking.
Gu Lu should be closer to "Annals of Mathematics" instead of "New Advances in Mathematics".
But just because of a wrong judgment.
This has resulted in the current situation where Gu Lu and "Annals of Mathematics" have no contact with each other.
but……
Then again.
Who would have thought that that young man who was not very prominent in the world of mathematics would grow to this point in just a few years!
"It seems that it is time to ease the relationship with Gu Lu." Dean Lietz thought to himself.
Due to the situation, Dean Lietz had no choice but to give in to Gu Lu.
otherwise.
If the Annals of Mathematics cannot get even one of the papers written by Gu and his colleagues in the future, this will be a huge loss to it.
What's more...
It is possible that the "Annals of Mathematics"'s position as the dominant journal in the mathematics community will encounter serious challenges.
Now that I have made my decision in my heart.
Dean Lietz no longer hesitated.
After typing away in front of the computer for a while, Dean Lietz sent an email to Gu Lu.
then.
Dean Letts closed the computer and handed it to Bourne.
"Bourne, tomorrow morning, call together all the members of our Institute of Advanced Mathematics who are still in the town of Princeton, and I will hold a plenary meeting." Dean Lietz opened his mouth and asked.
"Yes!" Bourne nodded in response, "But, Dean, what is your purpose of convening this meeting?"
According to Byrne's memory, Dean Lietz has not held a plenary meeting of the Institute of Advanced Mathematics for nearly two years.
And...still in such a hurry.
Dean Lietz took off his reading glasses and chuckled, "Let's discuss the matter of forming a review team to verify Gu Lu's paper."
…………
"Ah, comfortable!"
morning.
Gu Lu got up from the bed after sleeping happily.
It is worth mentioning that this was the only time Gu Lu slept and woke up naturally after starting a new topic last year.
The grand unified theory of geometry, algebra and topology took a year and was finally successfully constructed.
There was no longer any pressure on Gu Lu.
It can be described as relaxed.
The subject is officially concluded.
And Gu Lu also planned to take a vacation for himself.
Just in time.
It's now the end of March.
To be continued...
