Chapter 1129

The storm about the theory of the great unity of algebra and geometry has not yet completely subsided. The completion ceremony of the lunar Hadron Collider and related meetings are about to begin.

One after another, the heavyweight news waves are not smooth, one after another, washing people's eyeballs, shaking people's brains and making people overwhelmed.

if it's better to be outside the academic circle, no matter what kind of collision machine or grand unified theory, it may not be more shocking than a release conference about the phantom system, or even a blog post updated by a certain blocker , and more popular.

But if you are in the academic circle, you can obviously feel that this feeling is pushed forward by a huge force majeure.

As if what they were discussing yesterday is no longer a problem today, and then they have to face and adapt to new issues.

After the completion of the grand unified theory, especially the algebra geometry, there are too many things to be relearned.

Many people even suffer from anxiety. They have to rely on drugs to relieve their tired and fragile nerves.

At the same time, as the birthplace of the grand unified theory and the first university to offer this course, the opportunity to visit Jinling University for a while can be described as "proof".

From the beginning, as long as the application can be reported, to the end, the people who have signed up have formed a long line, and even those who have already signed up have to "add money", which takes less than half a month.

On the physical side, the situation is similar.

The completion of the LHC may not have a great impact on the Physics Department of Jinling University, but it has a great impact on imcrc.

Just a year ago, or even half a year ago, it was very difficult to get the opportunity to visit CERN for exchange or even volunteer.

Now this scene seems to be copied to the Pearl in the Western Pacific Ocean.

Every day imcrc receives tens of thousands of applications from all over the world, some of which hope to apply for positions, visit and exchange, hold lectures, etc., and some of which are about experiments. They hope to use the powerful functions of the moon Hadron Collider to verify their ideas about the micro world and the quantum world.

When receiving these applications, even with Professor Witten met many people in the world Luo Wenxuan, are not small surprise.

If he didn't know that there are so many people studying physics in the world, he would not even know that there are so many applications in the world.

Does this subject really need so many people?

He, who had never doubted it before, began to doubt it now.

The meeting was scheduled for December 18th.

Although it's only a week away from the western new year, that is, Christmas, you may miss the reunion with your family if you are a little careless, but no one has any complaints.

It's not easy to get the qualification to participate in this grand event.

As early as two months ago, when imcrc just applied to Shanghai International Convention and Exhibition Center for the right to use the site, the world's attention was focused on this top event, which is destined to completely change the future pattern of high energy physics.

Apart from those invited scholars, the vast majority of people who apply to join the society by themselves have been queuing up since then

……

Princeton Institute of advanced studies.

In an ordinary, even drab, nostalgic office, Professor deline, sitting at his desk, was staring at a half line sketch paper, frowning and thinking bitterly.

It's been almost a week since the end of that report.

He has been thinking about this problem on paper these days, but up to now, he still has no clue.

As expected, I still have to be old.

With a sigh in his heart, Professor deline shook his head.

Although his knowledge will not decline to the level of ordinary people with his vision, he has been able to clearly feel that he has gradually begun to feel inadequate in accepting new things.

Just as he was about to put the problem aside and make himself a cup of coffee, there was a knock on the door outside the office.

Put down the pen in his hand, Professor deline sighed softly, took off his glasses on the bridge of his nose, raised his head, and said in a clear voice.

"The door is unlocked, please come in."

The door opened, and an old man with sparse hair and a slight height came in with an easy smile on his face.

"My old friend, I heard that you have come back from China?"

"I came back a few days ago." when I saw Witten, I thought that he had nothing important to discuss with myself. Professor deline put on his glasses again and picked up the half line sketch paper again.Noticing his movements, Witten asked with an expression of interest on his face.

"What are you studying?"

Deline: "that paper on the unified theory of algebra and Geometry That's the one that caused a stir in the academic circle in this period. I recommend you take a good look. Although I don't know if you are still studying mathematics, I'm sure it will help your research. "

Witten: "you just came back from China? You don't understand? "

"The value of this paper is not just to understand it, but to dig it out."

Professor deline smiled a little, with a little praise and emotion in his eyes, and continued with a little sigh. "In these 40 page papers, not only the unified theory of algebraic geometry has been demonstrated, but also a series of related promotion propositions have been put forward. Most of these propositions are unproven, that is, so-called conjectures I didn't expect that he not only solved the problems we have been troubled by for thousands of years, but also pointed out how to go in the next hundred or even thousands of years. "

Witten asked with interest, "so you're studying Lu's conjecture?"

"I just think these questions are very interesting, so I turned them over in this period of time." it seems that I didn't want to admit that I was puzzled by these questions. Professor deline frowned and looked at him and asked, " What's the matter with these? "

Witten said with a smile: "it's nothing, just to see my old friend before the trip. By the way Remind him about the gambling appointment. "

Looking at the smile on the old man's face, Professor deline's mouth could not help twitching, but at last he didn't break the bill. He opened the drawer with a straight face and took out a notebook with a hard paper cover.

"Take it."

Overjoyed, he took the research note about Goldbach's conjecture, and Witten took it in his hand and looked it up with interest.

Although he has not studied the ancient, profound and pure art of number theory, no one knows the value of this note better than him.

"It's so clean It's not a fake. "

"The next time you go to China, you can stop by Jinling and ask him this question face to face," said Professor deline

"Ha ha, I'm just kidding." Witten laughs, pauses for a moment, and goes on, "it's just that I'm going to China."

Deline: is the collider finished

Witten nodded and said with a smile.

"Yes."

"I can't believe it," he said, smashing his tongue. "They've really put the collider on the moon."

He took the note into his arms, and Professor Witten smiled with a little emotion.

"The magic of technology is so fascinating If only I had been born a few decades later, maybe another 50 years, the problems we are worrying about are no longer problems. "

Professor deline said with disapproval.

"Don't worry, as long as you still choose this line, there will be new troubles waiting for you."

Slightly stunned, Professor Witten said with a smile.

"That's the same."

Mathematics is ushering in a dramatic change.

With the old problems being solved, more and more new problems will be born.

And physics, isn't it?

Since the problem of young mills equation was solved and the birth of the unified theory of strong electricity, he has foreseen this day.

As long as the man's steps don't stop.

This day will come sooner or later.
