Chapter 536 Mathematics thanks Lin Xiao(2/3)
At this time, both of them began to feel like they had to accept their old age.
"It seems that this report ends here. After all, even Deligne has asked questions."
"probably."
The other person nodded.
At this moment, Lin Xiao also spoke up: "So, does anyone else have questions?"
Just when everyone thought there was no problem, three more hands suddenly rose up in the audience.
After seeing these three hands, everyone present was stunned. Do you still have three questions?
Everyone looked at them and couldn't help but gasp, good guys, there were two heavyweights among them.
One is the famous Faltings, a master of mathematics who once served as the director of the Max Planck Institute of Mathematics. His status in the world goes without saying.
And another heavyweight was Perelman, who proved Poincare's conjecture. He was sitting in a corner of the audience. It is estimated that no one next to him recognized him, and no one present expected that.
This great man would actually leave his hut in Russia and come to Paris.
Of course, if you think about it, it is no exception. After all, no mathematician can refuse to participate in the proof report of the Riemann Hypothesis.
Obviously, this mathematician is no exception.
However, the third person is relatively less well-known, because he is a young man who looks younger than Lin Xiao. He is probably just studying for graduate school now.
This young man is raising his hand now. Does he have any important questions?
Or are you just trying to please others?
But Lin Xiao on the stage didn't think too much. When he saw the three raised hands, he smiled slightly.
It seems that this is the final test.
Three people, three problems, how difficult will these problems be?
He smiled and said, "It seems that we have to wait a little longer before it's time for us to eat."
Everyone present smiled, and Lin Xiao also said: "Okay, I need to think about who to choose."
However, at this time, Perelman and Faltings put down their hands in a tacit understanding, and it seemed that they both planned to let the young man ask questions.
Next to Faltings, Wiles said with a smile: "Tsk, tell me, what kind of question will that young man ask?"
Faltins shook his head, "I don't know, but I'm more curious about what Perelman's problem is."
"Then let's listen to this young man's problem first."
Wiles looked at the young man and suddenly said: "Hey, the person sitting next to this young man is Peter Schulz. Could it be that he is a student of Schulz?"
When he was confused, the young man was also pointed out by Lin Xiao, and then he said: "Dr. Lin, hello, I am Shuke Black, a doctoral candidate in the Department of Mathematics at the University of Bonn."
"My question is: Your entire paper first connects the Lindelof conjecture and the problem of large prime number gaps, so that they form a whole, thus forming a stronger conjecture and proving it."
"Then we expanded the results of this proof and discussed its value range on the complex plane."
"And in this process, you used a method that can be used to analyze the density gap of prime numbers more deeply..."
After hearing what Shuke Black said, most of the people present felt impatient.
This one-step method is the core and key point of Lin Xiao's entire paper. Everyone in the room didn't know how many times they had studied it.
What questions can be asked now?
Coupled with the fact that this was a young man, many people immediately began to conclude that this was a person who was trying to please others.
However, not everyone thinks so.
Wiles sat up straight, with some interest in his eyes.
"Oh? This question... seems interesting, Gould, what do you think?"
He turned to look at Faltings beside him.
However, what surprised him was that Faltings' eyes were very serious at this time, he looked down at the paper, and at the same time made a "shush" gesture, apparently telling Wiles to stop talking.
Seeing this, Wiles couldn't help but be stunned. Could it be that the question this young man asked was actually the question Faltings planned to ask?
And if he looked towards the back corner, he would also find that Perelman also lowered his head, looking at the paper with a serious face.
"...then, at this time, if I set n equal to p, the function value will expand infinitely under any circumstances, and then the point with a value of half will obviously not fall on the same straight line.
."
"This will falsify the Riemann Hypothesis."
"That's my problem, thank you."
As Shuke finished his story, the entire audience fell silent.
Because at first he looked down upon Shuke, but now he realized that he didn't even understand the young man's question.
And those who understood it had the same serious expressions on their faces as Faltings and Perelman.
Obviously, they are all aware of how serious this problem is.
Just like on the Go field, one side seems to be winning steadily, but the other side's layout looks very messy at first glance. However, unexpectedly, a sudden chess piece can shake up the entire situation and kill the dragon.
This is a fatal problem.
Because according to Shuke Black, the non-trivial zero point that should fall on Re(s)=1/2 will directly become chaotic. However, according to the points that have been verified by the computer, it is obviously inconsistent with this point.
Does not match.
This also means that Lin Xiao’s proof is wrong!
Everyone was surprised. This young man seemed to be ordinary, but the questions he raised turned out to be so direct to the essence.
Being able to ask such a question is enough to show that this young man is not simple.
"Hey, Gould, isn't this young man's question exactly what you want to ask?"
On the other side, Wiles couldn't help but ask.
At this time, Faltings' originally serious expression suddenly showed a smile.
He nodded, acknowledged Wiles' question, and then said with emotion: "It seems that we will still have enough outstanding young people to appear."
"Perhaps, I should also imitate you and become a little more relaxed in my final old age."
"Haha, you should have been like this a long time ago." Wilhelm suddenly laughed.
Faltings nodded slightly and looked at Lin Xiao on the stage, "I just don't know if Lin can answer this question."
Wiles also nodded and looked at Lin Xiao.
If you want to win the crown of Riemann Hypothesis, you have to go through such difficulties to be able to see that the crown is hard-won.
But at this moment, people present suddenly discovered that even with such a question, Lin Xiao seemed to have still not read the paper to deepen their impression?
At this time, Lin Xiao finally spoke.
"Your name is Shuke Black? Are you Peter's student?"
"Yes." Shuke Black looked at the teacher beside him and nodded.
Lin Xiao smiled: "Yes, I have heard Peter tell me a long time ago that he has a very talented student, and it seems that he is you."
"And your question is also very good and valuable."
Hearing Lin Xiao's praise, everyone in the audience looked at Shuke Black. He was able to get Lin Xiao's praise, and he was another Fields Medal winner's student. He turned out to be a great boss.
ah!
Lin Xiao also continued: "As for this problem, if you want to solve it, it is actually very simple."
See, Lin Xiaodu admitted that it was difficult...wait, "it's also very simple"?
Lin Xiao's words once again surprised thousands of viewers.
Even those who don't understand can tell from the discussion that the question Shuke asked is very difficult.
As a result, Lin Xiao actually said that the solution to this problem was very simple.
Lin Xiao turned around, came to the blackboard, erased the writing on it first, and said at the same time: "I hope you can still remember the sieve circle method, Lin's group transformation method, and the mathematical vaccine-the root inspection method."
These methods are all mathematical methods he has developed to solve other problems.
At this time, under his interpretation, the ideas of these methods were gradually integrated and changed into a more harmonious method.
And Faltings, Perelman, and other top mathematicians, at this moment, their eyes became serious again because of Lin Xiao's story, until they were amazed.
They understand.
"Finally, substitute the limiting conditions here into the formula you just mentioned. I believe you will be pleasantly surprised to find that the situation you just raised is perfectly reconciled."
"All non-trivial zero points once again fall on the straight line whose real part is one-half."
"At this point, we can prove without a doubt that the Riemann Hypothesis is correct."
"Mr. Black, do you have any questions?"
"I..." Shuke Black followed the thoughts that Lin Xiao just described in his mind, and finally understood.
To be continued...
