Chapter 378 Who is the Prover of the Twin Prime Number Conjecture?
Huaqing University, President's Office.

Yi Qiu is sitting by the window and drinking tea leisurely... Oh no, it's ε(greater than less than)з due to strenuous office work.

Freshmen start school today.

As the principal, he has a lot to deal with.

Let's not talk about going far.

Just say that the upcoming opening ceremony, various process arrangements, and what to say must be prepared.

But right now.

A grey-haired but hale and hearty old man hurried in with a pile of draft paper.

then……

I don't know how long it took.

Then I heard a shocking exclamation from the office, the kind that almost resounded through the entire building.

"This……"

"This this……"

"Unbelievable, incredible!"

"Mr. Lu, you gave me such a big surprise just after returning to school. You actually proved the famous problem [Twin Prime Number Guessing] that has stumped countless people. It's amazing!"

"Worthy of being the winner of the Fields Medal, the winner of the Wolf Prize in Mathematics and the Marcel Grossmann Prize in Physics, and the No.1 in Dongyun Mathematics..."

"Old Lu, you are about to add another piece to your glorious record, and the entire mathematics world will also usher in a big turmoil!"

"Tsk tsk!"

"Miao Miaomiao, it's really Miao Miao who opened the door for Miao Miao, she's home↖(^ω^)↗!"

"..."

this moment.

Principal Yi Qiu was so shocked that he became incoherent.

At the same age of 60, he couldn't help jumping nine feet high, almost breaking the ceiling.

The surprise is beyond words.

There is really nothing else to say.

Don't ask him why.

It's because Lu Chengzhou actually proved the [Twin Primes Conjecture] after the [Carabi Conjecture].

Gee!

【Twin Prime Number Conjecture】Is it awesome?
That's a must! Wow!

A hundred times better than Red Bull.

Perhaps it is not as good as the world's three major modern mathematical problems: Fermat's last theorem, Goldbach's conjecture, and the four-color problem [sp: Fermat and the four-color problem have been proven. 】

Perhaps not as good as the seven major mathematical problems of the millennium: NP complete problem, Hodge conjecture, Poincaré conjecture, Riemann hypothesis, Yang-Mills existence and mass gap, Navel-Stoke equation and BSD guess.

The above seven major mathematical problems have been rewarded with a reward of 100 million yuan for proofs. Among them, the Poincaré conjecture has been proved, and there are six remaining. Any one of them can be proved to be a million dollars.

but……

This cannot conceal the proven value of the twin prime number conjecture, which is enough to shock the whole world.

just because...

It is related to Abc conjecture, Collatz conjecture, Zhou's conjecture (Mersenne prime number distribution conjecture), Artin conjecture (New Mason conjecture), Krammel conjecture, Hardy-Littlewood second conjecture, six space theory, and hail Conjecture (Kuoya conjecture) and so on are very famous problems in mathematics.

The twin prime conjecture, Mersenne prime conjecture, Goldbach conjecture, ABC conjecture, and Riemann conjecture are also known as the five major conjectures on prime numbers [personal summary (^_^)].

If any one of these conjectures is proved, it will definitely cause huge turmoil in the entire mathematics world.

If the prover is younger than 40 years old, 100% can win the Fields Medal, the highest award in mathematics.

This honor is not insignificant.

but……

It is impossible for Lu Chengzhou to win the Fields Medal again.

After all, he is more than 70 years old, and he has long been a lifetime achiever of the Fields Medal, so it is naturally unnecessary.

But although there is no way to win the award.

But it is enough to make Lu Chengzhou's status in the mathematics world go a step further. It is not an exaggeration to say that he is No. 1 in the mathematics world.

however……

Hear Yi Qiu's words.

Lu Chengzhou showed a slight embarrassment on his face, and quickly waved his hands: "Old Yi, don't compliment me."

"Although I also want to prove the twin prime number conjecture, and spent a lot of effort on it, I have to admit that this method of proof is not my idea."

"exactly……"

"The first two-thirds were written by others, and I just renewed the second third."

"But even if I don't renew the certificate, they can definitely get it done with a little time, so I don't deserve the credit."

"..."

"what?"

"The credit doesn't belong to you?"

"The first two-thirds were written by others?"

Hearing this, Principal Yi Qiu's eyes widened, with a look of disbelief on his face, "How is this possible? The twin prime number conjecture is one of the unsolved problems in mathematics recognized by the world."

"Other than you, Mr. Lu, who else in Huaqing has this strength and can prove it?"

"..."

"I don't know exactly!"

Lu Chengzhou shook his head with a wry smile.

"What? Mr. Lu, don't you know?"

Yi Qiu frowned, full of doubts.

"Yeah, I really don't know."

Lu Chengzhou took out an old notebook from his pocket, and said, "Before the summer vacation, I studied the conjecture of twin prime numbers in the comprehensive library of science for a while."

"But ashamedly..."

"Although I have recorded all the proof methods known so far in this notebook, I haven't found any further discoveries, let alone prove them."

"At that time, I had something to do, so I put the notebook on the last row of bookshelves, and I didn't go to get it."

"Until today back to school."

"I just remembered that I want to take some time to study and study."

"But it turned out..."

"I found out that the notebook was tampered with, and I wrote the third proof method of the twin prime number conjecture [finite field] proof method, and the proof is mostly..."

have to say.

As an academic master of the older generation.

Lu Chengzhou's character is still very good.

If it is an ordinary selfish person, he can take the proof of the twin prime number conjecture as his own.

After all, although Jiangnan wrote the first two-thirds, it was not complete and did not prove the final result.

In academia, there is an unwritten rule.

If you didn’t produce results, but others produced results, then the credit for this proof is probably on the latter.

There is even such a situation.

You proved the result, and others also proved the result, but they made the result public first.

Those people will only remember others.

and won't remember you.

At most, there is a little controversy.

What's more, there is still the case of academic plagiarism, anyway, whoever discloses it first will own it.

This kind of example is really mixed.

don't you see...

How many academic masters have worked hard for most of their lives to complete their achievements, just because they came out one minute later than others, and the result is that they fall short and disappear from everyone.

However, Lu Chengzhou did not take the credit, and this was also the reason why he came to find Yi Qiu.

He wanted Yi Qiu to check it out.

During the summer vacation, who moved his notebook, who wrote the [finite field] proof method.

In this regard.

Yi Qiu naturally agreed.

He also wanted to see who this Huaqing master who could prove the twin prime number conjecture was.

to this end.

He took Lu Chengzhou back to the library, but instead of going to the comprehensive library of science, he went straight to the monitoring room.

just because...

There are cameras inside and outside the library.

Although it is not 360 degrees without dead ends, most areas are monitored 24 hours a day.

then……

The two called out the monitoring of the comprehensive library of science for the whole summer vacation, and checked it attentively, but they couldn't find the person who moved Lu Chengzhou's notebook in the end.

just because...

Immortal.

The last row of bookshelves is the dead corner.

The camera can't monitor it at all.

And Jiang Nan was used to keeping a low profile, and he didn't like being photographed by the camera, so the place where he read a book happened to be outside the monitoring range of the camera.

In this regard.

Lu Chengzhou looked sad.

Could it be that he couldn't find this hidden math genius?Or do you need to sit on the sidelines slowly?

It is impossible to find someone directly and openly. After all, who knows how many fakers will come?
but……

Just when his mountains and rivers were in doubt and there was no way out.

The principal, Yi Qiu, slapped his forehead and said with a smile, "Oh, why did I forget that there is such a person?"

"Mr. Lu, besides you, if there is anyone else in Huaqing who has the ability to prove the twin prime number conjecture, it is definitely our newly hired mathematician Myers."

"Go, go, I'll take you to find him now!"

"..."
