After spending so many years in academia, Lu Zhou heard for the first time that editors of some journals suggested to contributors that one paper should be divided into two.

In most cases, the academic editor of the journal dislikes the contributor's too much water, breaks a topic into two parts or even several parts, and then publishes it by quoting his own paper and brushing the times of being cited, so he can type the paper back and ask the contributor to rewrite it.

The amount of paper information of the disdained contributor is too large. Call back and ask the contributor to send two papers separately

It's been a long time.

"The part of corollary one is one of the core problems of manifold classification in differential topology..." Staring at the email, Lu Zhou felt his chin. "Sullivan guess? I haven't heard of anything. "

With a murmur, he kicked the suitcase to one side, got up and walked out of the cloakroom, and walked quickly upstairs.

Sitting in front of the computer, I opened the database and searched the relevant terms, which soon surprised Lu Zhou.

Only a row of papers were retrieved, flying to him like snowflakes.

I don't know if I don't check.

This search did not expect that this proposition is quite popular.

However, the authors of the most cited papers are not familiar with each other. I think this Sullivan conjecture should be an important proposition in this research branch, which is not highly related to other disciplines.

It's like the twin prime conjecture.

It's not additive number theory. Generally no one will study it.

“…… Mom, I said it's so hard. I've been thinking about it all day! Is it really a mathematical guess? "

In short, the paper he submitted in the annual journal of mathematics, in which the length of discussion on inference 1 is up to 7 and a half pages, is in fact a proof of an equivalent form of Sullivan's conjecture of smooth complex perfect intersection.

This conjecture is about the problem of smooth popular classification, which has a history of more than half a century.

The classification of smooth manifolds is one of the core problems in differential topology!

This means that the problem he solved unintentionally, in fact, has puzzled the field of differential topology for more than half a century

After reading the retrieved documents, Lu Zhou was filled with emotion.

On the one hand, it is natural to lament that Professor Chen, who was dug by himself, has something.

In the study of hyperelliptic curve analysis, the association actually deviates from the classical proposition of differential topology.

"Anyway If Sullivan's conjecture holds, then the method of hyperelliptic curve analysis can introduce the method of differential manifold. "

"If this step can go through, I feel that the end of Riemann's conjecture is one step closer to me."

"I just don't know how many steps are left..."

He sighed at the paper on the computer screen. Lu Zhou opened the original paper and rearranged the content.

In fact, this work is very simple. It's just to put inference 1 in the original paper alone with several lines of abstracts, and submit it as an independent paper.

As for the title of the paper, Professor Frix thought it out for him.

That is, the proof of Sullivan's conjecture about smooth complex perfect intersection.

As for the original paper, it is just to add a line of quotation to the quotation part, and then directly use the proposition he has proved as a theorem in the paper.

It took about ten minutes to finish the work, and then Lu Zhou repackaged and delivered the paper to Professor Frix's mailbox.

After finishing these things, when Lu zhouzheng was going to send an email to tell Professor Chen Yang about this interesting thing, he suddenly remembered that he had hung the pre printed copy of the paper on arXiv when delivering the paper.

Although he rarely revised the manuscript, according to the academic practice, since he revised the thesis according to the opinions of the academic editor or reviewer, the preprint on arXiv naturally needs to be updated synchronously.

Thinking of this, Lu Zhou immediately boarded his account on arXiv. However, just as he was about to delete the original preprint and update it into two papers after splitting, he was shocked by the download volume of the original paper.

22000 downloads!

"Lying groove, it's only two days' work. Is the download volume so high?"

Generally speaking, even if it is a hot research direction, it is not easy for a preprint to have hundreds of downloads after uploading.

The number of downloads can exceed ten thousand, which is often those papers that have been hung for a long time, and it is only possible that the research direction is more popular.

Differential topology itself is not a particularly popular branch of mathematics, especially in the field of manifold classification. It's hard to say whether there are 20000 scholars around the world who study this field, let alone those who track this label on arXiv.So, the number of downloads is a little weird.

There is only one possibility.

That's his paper, which has caused quite a lot of topics in a certain range.

Moreover, this topic has become so hot that scholars studying other fields have cast curious eyes to him

Suddenly, Lu Zhou seemed to realize something, so he immediately logged in his account in the mathover flow forum.

As he expected, on this world-famous forum of mathematical professionals, the topic of his paper has almost occupied the main page of instant discussion

[I'm surprised. Has anyone read Professor Lu's latest paper? ]

[I just read it, it seems to be a supplement to the analysis method of hyperelliptic curve Is there anything special? ]

[the key is not the proposition discussed in the paper itself! But inference one in that paper! You're not doing differential topology. You may not know that it's actually another expression of Sullivan's conjecture! I saw it for a long time and suddenly found it! ]

[my senior brother studied differential topology when I was studying for master's degree, and it is said that he and his tutor are now engaged in the problem of differential manifold classification. I just took that paper and asked him how he felt. He only told me a word about Niubi, and then the whole person was autistic. How can I persuade him to open up now, online, etc. It's very urgent ]

[it's worthy of Professor Lu. Any special research can produce such research results. ]

[I feel like I have learned differential manifold for more than ten years (crying)]

[I'm short of a topic for tomorrow's discussion class, so I borrowed this preprint and used it well: P]

browse these posts to the end, and finally it's the case solved Lu Zhou. I can't help sighing.

"These people are really lazy."

It's better to choose some interesting questions to study.

Isn't that to solve a conjecture?

Make a fuss all day

Shaking his head, Lu Zhou turned off his browser, closed his laptop, and threw the incident aside, along with the paper that had been submitted.

The mathematics Yearbook will contact a qualified reviewer for him to complete the peer review process.

What he needs to do next is to prepare for the upcoming trip to Shanghai
