Asonefirm the materialistsoldier, andhas a clear conscience, Lu Zhoudoes not certainly believe in the ghosts and gods.
身为一名坚定且问心无愧的唯物主义战士,陆舟当然是不信鬼神的。
……
……
The eyeadapted to the light of a whilecorridorto think,heis relying on the onlyimpression, askedwith the toneindefinitely.
眼睛适应了一会儿楼道的光想,他凭借着仅有的印象,用不确定地语气问道。„Morina?”
“莫丽娜?”HearsLu Zhouto readownname, thisFrenchlady'scorners of the mouthbrought back a happy expression: „Iknow that youwill come tohere...... younot to callme? Icandriveto go toPhiladelphiato meetyou.”
听到陆舟念出自己的名字,这位法国女士的嘴角勾起了一丝笑意:“我就知道你会来这里……你怎么不打电话给我?我可以开车去费城接你。”Alsoisthisissue......
又是这个问题……„On the 211 th where have IaskedmySenior Brother...... to be at?”Lu Zhoucoughed, changed the topicrapidly.
“我已经拜托我的师兄了……211号在哪?”陆舟干咳了一声,迅速岔开了话题。„Going upstairsleftturningcorridorend,” the index fingerliftedliftinggently, Morinahad not pesteredat the matter of telephoneactually, withchatting the tonesaid,„right, said that youdid elect the teacher?”
“上楼左拐走廊尽头,”食指轻轻抬了抬,莫丽娜倒是没有在电话的事情上纠缠,用闲聊地口吻说道,“对了,说起来,你选好导师了没?”Lu Zhou: „What's wrong?”陆舟:“怎么了?”„I mean, ifyouhave not elected, IrecommendmyteacherSophieMorrelltoyou,”looks atLu Zhouearnestly, Morinasaid,„mybeforehandinvitationis still valid, ourtopicsneedyou.”
“我的意思是,如果你没选好,我向你推荐我的导师索菲莫雷尔,”认真地看着陆舟,莫丽娜说道,“我之前的邀请依然有效,我们的课题需要你。”SophieMorrell( sophiemorel )?
索菲莫雷尔(sophiemorel)?Lu Zhousomewhatvisitshersurprisedly.陆舟有些惊讶地看着她。
The Morinaeyebrowliftedlifting, was asking: „Are youvery surprised?”莫丽娜眉毛抬了抬,笑着问:“你很惊讶?”„Veryis truly surprised......”Lu Zhouto nod.
“确实很惊讶……”陆舟点了点头。Fieldsrewardspopularlycandidateone, Frenchfemalemathematician who attractiveness value and knowledgehave both.
菲尔茨奖热门候选之一,一位颜值与学识兼具的法国女数学家。HoweverletshissurprisedSophiethisnameactually not, butisPrincetondigs the ability of person.
不过让他惊讶的倒不是索菲这个名字,而是普林斯顿挖人的能力。Reallydependsalumni association„acting in a self-serving manner”American, the given name of thisParisMathCenter seems like robbed, was boughtsimply......
果然是仗着校友会“为所欲为”的美国佬,这巴黎数学中心的名号看来不是被抢走的,简直是被买走的……Thinks ofhere, Lu Zhouunderstandssuddenly the littletransparentJinling University of Princetonandmathematics circlesreaches„not equalagreement”reason, the expressionsomewhatis subtle.
想到这里,陆舟忽然明白了普林斯顿和数学界的小透明金陵大学达成“不平等协议”的原因,表情不由有些微妙。After a while, originallyrewardsingambling gameFields......
搞了半天,原来是在押宝菲尔茨奖啊……Held the both arms, the corners of the mouth of Morinawas bringing back a happy expression: „Yourchoice?”
抱着双臂,莫丽娜的嘴角勾起了一丝笑意:“那你的选择呢?”„Thankyourinvitation, butallowedmeto reject.”
“感谢你的邀请,但容我拒绝。”Brushed pastwithdumbfoundedMorina, Lu Zhoudrags the suitcaseto walktoward the corridorendroom.
与目瞪口呆的莫丽娜擦肩而过,陆舟拖着行李箱向走廊尽头的房间走去。Cracking a joke.
开玩笑。As99%award-winningprobabilitiespopularcandidate, asksaward-winningprobability80%competitorsto be the teacher, has the problem!
作为99%获奖概率的热门候选,找一个获奖概率80%的竞争者当导师,有毛病啊!
......
……Lu Zhouisplannedto listen toseveralclasses, inquired that choosesownteacheragain. Finallyheunderestimatedby far an only 21-year-oldKohlrewards the winner and poorprizepopularcandidate, regarding the professors in Princetonishow„attractive”.陆舟原本是打算听几堂课,多打听打听再选择自己的导师。结果他远远低估了一位年仅21岁的柯尔奖得主以及菲奖热门候选,对于普林斯顿的教授是多么的“诱人”。Does not know where frommailing the invitation of invitationandacademic exchanges of coffeemeetingis notanything, whendietclub( eating-lubs )eats meal, someyoungfemalehelps the Sect Headtrendhesay something to smooth things over, thenless thantenwordsthenchatted the issue of teacher, andsuggestedunceasinglyhisteacherwas a goodchoice.
不知道从哪寄来的咖啡会的邀请和学术交流的邀请函已经不算什么了,在饮食俱乐部(eating-lubs)吃饭的时候,某位年轻的女助教主动向他搭讪,然后不到十句话便聊到了导师的问题,并不断暗示他自己的导师是个不错的选择。The one whois more excessiveisSenior BrotherLuo, moststartedto recommendso manypeopletohimobviously, finallynext daydinnertimethenchanged the previousrumor, startedto blowProfessorEdward Wittenfiercely. Afterwardpossiblyblewwas too fierce, satinsomesideMexicanlittleelder brothertsukomi that did the coherence physics„thateffeminate?”, Two peoplebecausealmostthismattergets angryat the scene.
更过分的是罗师兄,明明最开始向他推荐了那么多人,结果第二天晚饭的时候便一改此前的口风,开始猛吹爱德华威滕教授。后来可能吹的太厉害,被坐在旁边某个搞凝聚态物理的墨西哥小哥吐槽了一句“就那个娘娘腔?”,两人差点因为这事儿当场翻脸。
The repertoire, is the repertoire.
套路,全都是套路。
When headache, Lu Zhouknowsoneselfmustresult inmakes the choiceas soon as possible.
头疼之余,陆舟知道自己必须得尽快做出选择了。Went toNassauhallto want a register of names of adviser to doctoral students, Lu Zhoucarefullyto studyto the register of names for onehour, finallychoseProfessorDeligne, asgoal of firstinterview.
去拿骚堂要了一博士生导师的名册,陆舟对着名册仔细研究了一个小时,最终选择了德利涅教授,作为第一场面试的目标。As , the reason is very why simple.
至于为什么,理由很简单。AlgebraGeometryisstudies the analytic theory of numbers the important instrument, butthisis the Lu Zhouweak area. Beforehehas wantedto look forunderGrothendieck'soriginal manuscriptresearch, but when hedid the electronicfilesafterScholar Xiangthere, actuallydiscoveredoneselfcould not understandFrench.
代数几何是研究解析数论的重要工具,但这一块是陆舟的短板。以前他一直想找格罗滕迪克的原稿研究下,但当他从向院士那里搞到了电子档之后,却发现自己根本看不懂法语。ProfessorDeligneisGrothendieck'sstudent, one of the GrothendieckSchoolleaders. Moreoveraward that singleviewwins, inhistory of mathematics, only thentwopeoplesweptFieldsprize, the Wolfprize and Crafoord Prizethreeawards, one of them isQiuChengtong, another is Deligne.德利涅教授是格罗滕迪克的学生,格罗滕迪克学派的领军人之一。而且单论获得的奖项,数学史上只有两个人囊括了菲尔兹奖、沃尔夫奖、克拉福德奖三项大奖,其中一人是邱成桐,另一位便是德利涅。With the knowledge of ProfessorDeligne, can certainlylearnmanythings.
以德利涅教授的学识,一定能学到不少东西。
After booking the interview, the Lu Zhouitselfthinks that this conducts a testby the rigorousandstrictfamousseniorfacultytohim, even if formally. The resulthas not thought that Delignelooked at the eyehismaterial, thenannouncedheadopted the interview.
预约了面试之后,陆舟本以为这位以严谨和严格出名的老教授会对他进行一番考验,哪怕是形式上的。结果没想到德利涅只是看了眼他的材料,便宣布了他通过了面试。Stoodfrom the deskfollowingchair, Delignetook downhisgraybigwindproof coat and hatfrom the clothes rack, whilesaid.
从办公桌后面的椅子上站了起来,德利涅一边从衣架上取下了他那件灰色的大风衣和帽子,一边说道。„Welcomeyouto join the big family in Princeton, Ihelpyougo through the relatedformalitiesnow.”
“欢迎你加入普林斯顿的大家庭,我现在去帮你办理相关的手续。”„Mytopic-based groupis primarilystudying‚standardsuspected that’, naturally, Ido not have the compulsory requirementregardingyou, will not restrainyourdevelopment. According tomyobservation, youarescholar who excels at the independent study. But ifyouare willingto joinmytopic, Iwelcomevery much. Ifyouare not interested, canlikeotherpostgraduate candidates, completemeto giveyourduty, simultaneouslypreparesyourgraduation thesis, samecanobtainyourdoctorate.”
“我的课题组以研究‘标准猜想’为主,当然,我对于你没有硬性要求,不会约束你的发展。根据我的观察,你是个擅长独立研究的学者。但如果你愿意加入我的课题,我很欢迎。如果你不感兴趣,也可以像其他博士生那样,完成我给你的任务,同时准备你的毕业论文,一样可以拿到你的博士学位。”At this point, Delignestopped the moment, looks that Lu Zhoucontinuesto say.
说到这里,德利涅停顿了片刻,看着陆舟继续说道。„Naturally, Iregardingyourexpectation and request, am higher than others. Yourgraduation thesis, at leastmustconform to " MathYearly journal » standard. If all goes well, perhapsnext yearyoucanobtainyourdoctorate. But ifyouare too laxtoyourself, wastedowntalent, perhaps can never attain.”
“当然,我对于你的期望和要求,比别人要高。你的毕业论文,至少得符合《数学年刊》的标准。如果一切顺利,也许明年你就能拿到你的博士学位。但如果你对自己太松懈,浪费了自己的天赋,也许永远也拿不到。”Lu Zhou: „Iunderstood...... aboutyoursuggestion, Iwantagainunder the consideration.”陆舟:“我明白了……关于您的建议,我想再考虑下。”
The Delignenodsaid: „Un...... is all right, Icanunderstand, butbestquickly. Answeredtomeas far as possiblein three days,Ido not want is too longfor a matter.”德利涅点头道:“嗯……没事儿,我能理解,但最好快一点。尽量在三天之内给我答复,我不想为一件事等太久。”Lu Zhou: „Certainly!”陆舟:“一定!”

……
The Riemann hypothesisandTwin Prime ConjectureandPolignacsuspected that waita series ofrelative independence the mathematical problemsare different, althoughdescribed is very as if simple, even„all non-ordinaryzeropoints of riemannζfunctionwas located in the complex planesin the re (s ) = 1 / 2straight line”to summarizewithone.
黎曼猜想与孪生素数猜想、波利尼亚克猜想等等一系列相对独立的数学问题不同,虽然描述起来似乎很简单,甚至用一句“riemannζ函数的所有非平凡零点都位于复平面上re(s)=1/2的直线上”就可以概括。Butin fact, it is actually a mammothproject, is similarto a building.
但事实上,它却是一个浩大的工程,类似于一座大厦。
It seems the Poincaré conjectureto be the same, noSmaleinthe 60'sitsintroductionhigher-dimensionalconcept, withoutQiuChengtongwhenprovingCalabysuspecteddevelops„with the non-linear differential equationstudies the Geometrystructure” the theory, will not haveafterwardHamiltonin„the riiclass/flow”onbreakthroughas well as93years of thatpaperaboutodd theory, will not havePerelman'sfinalproof.
就好像庞加莱猜想一样,没有斯梅尔在六十年代将其引入高维概念,没有邱成桐在证明卡拉比猜想时发展出的“用非线性微分方程研究几何结构”的理论,就不会有后来汉密尔顿在“rii流”上的突破以及93年那篇关于奇点理论的论文,更不会有佩雷尔曼的最终证明。Thisismillenniumdifficult problemrank an objective law of mathematicalpropositionproof, eventalent, eccentriclikePerelman, is impossibleto jump over the frontallwork, obtains the Poincaré conjectureestablishmentdirectly.
这是一个千禧难题级别的数学命题证明的客观规律,就算天才、孤僻如佩雷尔曼,也不可能跳过前面的所有工作,直接得出庞加莱猜想成立。Let alonewaseightyears, pleasecome backGauss, giveshim80yearsnotnecessarilyenough.
别说是八年了,就是把高斯请回来,给他八十年也不一定够。
The Riemann hypothesis is also same, moreoverthisbuilding, Poincaré conjectureis huger.
黎曼猜想也是一样,而且这栋大厦,比庞加莱猜想更庞大。Itlooks like an isolatedmountain, allmathematiciansstandin the halfway up the mountainside, evennotfirmlyDingshanalsohigh.
它像一座孤立的大山,所有数学家都站在半山腰上,甚至不确定山还有多高。
The onlyconfirmation, isoutlying hillequallymanyissues, no oneis solved. Whocanleading to all issues of Riemann hypothesisthisultimatepropositionis solvedcompletely, tenFieldsrewardsdoes not dareto speak, fivearedefinitelyenough...... the premiseis a personcanleadso manytimes.
唯一确认的,就是眼前山一样多的问题,都还没有人去解决。谁能将通往黎曼猜想这一终极命题的所有问题全部解决,十个菲尔茨奖不敢说话,五个是肯定够的……前提是一个人能领这么多次。Ifsomepeoplethink that jumps overallissues that does not have the solution, canprove the Riemann hypothesisbysomemathematics method, thenthatprofessorwith15year-endNigeriais mostly same, islayman who Riemann hypothesisisanythingdoes not.
如果有人认为跳过所有没解决的问题,凭借某个数学方法就能证明黎曼猜想的话,那么多半和15年年底尼日利亚的那位教授一样,是个连黎曼猜想是什么都搞不清楚的外行。Becausethisis no differentpasses through the person who in the novelthesemask alignerhas not even done, returned to the Qing dynasty to make the chipwith the file, was divorced from the realitycompletely. SimilarpaperClay Institutewill receiveseveralwicker basketsevery year, butwithscrap papernotdifferent.
因为这无异于穿越小说中那些连光刻机都没搞出来的人,拿个锉刀回到大清就想造芯片,完全脱离了现实。类似的论文克雷研究所每年都会收几箩筐,但和废纸无异。Naturally, the modernmathematiciansare not a mentalitydo not have. KangRuicriticallinetheorem„40%points”, CarlBender( arlbender )and otherare„introducesquantum mechanicssystem under a special circumstanceto explain the Riemann hypothesis that” the mathematicianrecentlyproposed, is a mentality.
当然,现代数学家并非一点思路都没有。无论是康瑞的临界线定理的“40%零点”,还是卡尔本德(arlbender)等三为数学家最近提出的“将黎曼猜想引入一种特殊情形下的量子力学系统进行解释”,都算是一条思路。Takes the algebraGeometrystudyas the breakthrough point.
还有以代数几何学为切入点。For example, byWeil of Deligneproofhad been suspected( one of the 70'scardinal numberdomainmostglorious triumphs), the populardescription is the Riemann hypothesis on letternumber field, usuallyis called„knock-off” the Riemann hypothesis.
比如,已经被德利涅证明的韦伊猜想(70年代纯数领域最辉煌成就之一),通俗的描述便是函数域上的黎曼猜想,通常被戏称为“山寨版”黎曼猜想。As for„standardsuspicion that”ProfessorDeligneandLu Zhou said that is the generalform that Weilsuspects, in the pastby the modernalgebraGeometrystudy„Pope”Mr.Grothendieckproposed,is honored as the algebraGeometryimperial crown.
至于德利涅教授和陆舟说的“标准猜想”,则是韦伊猜想的一般形式,当年由现代代数几何学的“教皇”格罗滕迪克先生提出,被誉为代数几何界的皇冠。IfProfessorDelignewantsto complete the long-cherished wish of teacher, proves the Riemann hypothesis, then an expertasalgebraGeometrystudy, the standardsuspected that throughoutishemust the thing that goes to face.
如果德利涅教授希望完成老师的夙愿,证明黎曼猜想,那么身为一名代数几何学的专家,标准猜想始终是他必须去面对的东西。
After returning to the dormitory, Lu Zhoulies downon the softbed, seriouslyis consideringProfessorDeligneinvitationvery much.
回到宿舍之后,陆舟躺在松软的床铺上,很认真地考虑着德利涅教授的邀请。Now, hefaced withtwochoices.
现在,他面临两个选择。Oneisto join the topic-based group of ProfessorDeligne, althoughaims at the standardto suspect that probablyobtainshighermathematicalexperience, butthiswill delay the system taskwithout doubt the progress, particularlyhedoes not know that whichstepProfessorDelignehas conducted now, manyworkhave not been completed.
一个是加入德利涅教授的课题组,虽然以标准猜想为目标可能获得更高的数学经验,但这样无疑会拖延系统任务的进度,尤其是他不知道德利涅教授现在已经进行到了哪一步,还有多少工作没有完成。Another, is the individual farming, the centralizedentire energyattacks and captures the Goldbach's conjecture, thentakesowngraduation thesiswithit, completesin the doctorate of Princeton......
另一个,便是自己单干,集中全部精力攻克哥德巴赫猜想,然后用它作为自己的毕业论文,完成在普林斯顿的博士学位……
