The advanced mathematics research institute, the time is 11 : 30 am. 高等数学研究院,时间是上午11点半。 …… …… At this moment, Deligne is inspecting own mailbox, prepares from «Math Yearly journal» and in " Math Chronicle » editorial department mailing manuscript, chooses paper that oneself are interested, places in the lunch later relaxation time to appraise. 此时此刻,德利涅正在检查自己的邮箱,准备从《数学年刊》和《数学纪事》编辑部寄来的稿件中,挑选自己感兴趣的论文,放在午饭之后的休息时间里评审。 Has swept an all various professions title sketchily, however at this moment, he gawked suddenly under. 粗略地扫过一行行标题,然而就在这时,他忽然愣了下。 «Any One Is bigger than 2 Even numbers, Can Express Sums of Two Prime number» 《任一大于二的偶数,可以表示成两个素数之和》 Goldbach's conjecture? 哥德巴赫猜想？ The eye narrows the eyes, Deligne selected the mail, looked to the abstract of paper. 眼睛眯起,德利涅点开了邮件,看向了论文的摘要。 Although «Math Yearly journal» has the double blind edit principle, but in fact regarding the known scholar, this rule is not very strict was carried out. 虽然《数学年刊》存在双盲的审稿原则,但事实上对于已经小有名气的学者来说,这条规则并不是很严格的被执行。 For example somewhat likes hanging the arxiv person before the contribution, the peer who pays attention to this domain will receive the reminder. Again for example the abstract part of paper, detail on some grammar and wording style, is very easy to guess correctly the status of contributor. 比如有些喜欢在投稿前挂arxiv的人,关注这一领域的同行都会收到提醒。再比如论文的摘要部分,一些语法和遣词风格上的细节,很容易猜出投稿人的身份。 Without a doubt, this paper Lu Zhou writes, after all he first time was not gave him to review a draft. 毫无疑问,这篇论文正是陆舟写的,毕竟他也不是第一次给他审稿了。 Looked following textual material all various professions, the Deligne brow knits the brows slightly 顺着正文部分一行行看了下去,德利涅眉头微微皱了皱眉 Suddenly, he looks up to the postgraduate candidate who sits in not far away said that „Smith, a chapter goes to the restaurant time, helping me bring a smoked meat sandwich to come back, coffee.” 忽然,他抬头看向了坐在不远处的博士生说道,“史密斯,一回儿去餐厅的时候,帮我带一份熏肉三明治回来,还有咖啡。” That postgraduate candidate named Smith stretches oneself, stands saying: „Good, does the professor...... today plan to eat meal in the office?” 那个叫史密斯的博士生伸了个懒腰,站起来说道:“好的,教授……今天打算在办公室里吃饭？” „Yes,” Deligne put out a hand to turn on the printer, simultaneously took out the eyeglasses to put from the pocket, „had a very interesting paper to wait for me.” “是的,”德利涅伸手打开了打印机,同时从兜里取出了眼镜戴上,“有篇很有意思的论文在等着我。” ...... …… Passed for five days, Lu Zhou had not heard any wind sound/rumor, seemed his paper to throw into the water to be the same. 足足过去了五天,陆舟也没听到任何风声,就好像他的论文扔进了水里一样。 Until sixth day time, he received an unexpected call suddenly. 直到第六天的时候,他忽然接到了一个意料之外的电话。 The phone call person is Qiu Chengtong. 来电人是邱成桐。 After the connection, Qiu only has a few words. 接通之后,邱老只有一句话。 „Did you prove?!” “你证出来了？！” Heard this urgent inquiry, Lu Zhou first gawked slightly, later nodded to say. 听到这火急火燎的提问,陆舟先是微微愣了下,随后点头说道。 „If you referred to the Goldbach's conjecture...... I truly are prove.” “如果您指的是哥德巴赫猜想……我确实是证出来了。” After hearing the reply of Lu Zhou, telephone that does not have the sound some little time. 听到陆舟的回答之后,电话那头好一会儿没动静。 Because is extremely surprised, Qiu Chengtong does not know suddenly unexpectedly should say anything. 因为太过惊讶,邱成桐一时间竟是不知道该说些啥。 He has seen many talented new generation Chinese mathematicians, Terence Tao who for example University of California teaches, for example the Wei of cloud is teaching in Yale University, for example slow Chenyang...... has made the outstanding research results in the respective domain. 他见过很多才华横溢的新生代华人数学家,比如加州大学教书的陶哲轩,比如正在耶鲁大学教书的云之玮,比如徐晨阳……都在各自的领域做出过杰出的研究成果。 However Lu Zhou, without doubt is most dazzling one, most made his surprise one. 然而陆舟,无疑是最耀眼的一个,同时也是最令他诧异的一个。 He suggested Lu Zhou at that time toward direction diligently of Goldbach's conjecture, hopeless with his ability can its proof. 他当时只是建议陆舟朝着哥德巴赫猜想的方向努力一下,根本没指望与他的能力能将其证明。 After all the sieve method or the circle method, have come to the end in this issue. Even if he had gained in enough many experiences in the research of prime number issue, in a short time solves this suspicion is also impossible. 毕竟无论是筛法还是圆法,在这一问题上都已经走到了尽头。哪怕他在素数问题的研究上已经积累了足够多的经验,短时间内解决这个猜想也是不可能的。 However the performance of Lu Zhou, actually came as a surprise to his completely...... 然而陆舟的表现,却完全出乎了他的意料…… The deep breath the one breath, Qiu Chengtong asked seriously: „Do you have several tenths assurance?” 深呼吸了一口气,邱成桐严肃问道:“你有几成把握？” Lu Zhou thinks, replied: „Over 90%.” 陆舟想了想,回答道:“九成以上。” Actually what he wants to say is ten tenths, after all even the system approved his step, but cultivates the behavior is the slightly low-key point is quite good, who knows that the taster will ask the cunning issue? He has ten tenths assurance is right, but does not have ten tenths assurance certainly to be approved. 其实他想说的是十成,毕竟连系统都认可了他的步骤,不过做人还是稍微低调点比较好,谁知道审稿员会提出怎样刁钻的问题呢？他有十成的把握是对的,但没有十成的把握一定能得到认可。 Hears the reply of Lu Zhou, Venerable Qiu nods. 听到陆舟的回答,邱老先生点了点头。 The direction that he studies is mainly the partial differential equation and differential Geometry, even has also studied to the mathematical physics, but does not contain the analytic theory of numbers domain only, therefore is unable to appraise the Lu Zhou paper from the academic point of view. 他研究的方向主要是偏微分方程和微分几何,甚至对数学物理也有所研究,但唯独不包含解析数论领域,所以无法从学术角度评价陆舟的论文。 But if Lu Zhou can say 90% assurances with the affirmative tone, even if there is issue, still revises the matter. 但如果陆舟能用肯定的语气说出有90%把握,想必就算有问题,也不过是修改一下的事情。 Stopped the moment, Venerable Qiu sighs with emotion: „Since Venerable Hua Luogeng passed away, the Hua Luogeng School was then suppressed by two mountain tops, entire China theory of numbers is also unable to recover. To be honest, I am very surprised, never expected that you can come out to the card the Goldbach's conjecture. I was pondering over, studies the Goldbach's conjecture definitely to help you deepen the understanding of the prime number, even could not solve this problem, the thing that comprehended can still make you be able to develop one's ability to the full in the future...... the result now looks like, I looked down on you actually.” 停顿了片刻,邱老先生感慨道:“自从华罗庚老先生去世以后,华罗庚学派便被两座山头打压,连带着整个华国数论界也一蹶不振。说实话,我很惊讶,没想到你能把哥德巴赫猜想给证出来。原本我是琢磨着,研究哥德巴赫猜想肯定能帮助你加深对素数的理解,即便解决不了这个问题,从中领悟到的东西也能令你日后大有作为……结果现在看来,倒是我小瞧你了。” The Hua Luogeng School is international famous „China analytic theory of numbers school of thought”, this school of thought is also called the water wooden school of thought. 华罗庚学派便是国际著名的“华国解析数论学派”,这个学派同时也被称作水木学派。 As for two mountains that Venerable Qiu said that which two although without selects explicitly is, but thinks that Venerable Qiu and Yanda (Yanshan University) gratitude and grudges and multiple accusations to domestic mathematics circles mountain top, Lu Zhou can also guess correctly probably. 至于邱老先生说的两座大山,虽然没有明确点出是哪两座,但想到邱老先生和燕大的恩怨以及对国内数学界山头的多次指责,陆舟大概也能猜到。 However these things he does not think that the ginseng/partake gathers, therefore smiles, has not said. 不过这些东西他并不想参合进去,所以只是笑了笑,没有接话。 Stopped the moment, Venerable Qiu asked with a smile: „Graduated, is interested in coming the water wood to be the professor?” 停顿了片刻,邱老先生笑着问道:“等毕业了,有没有兴趣来水木当教授？” Lu Zhou thinks, replied with a smile: „I will be two years of professor in Princeton probably. After returning to homeland, I have complied with Academician Xu, returned to the alma mater to teach.” 陆舟想了想,笑着回答:“我大概会在普林斯顿当两年教授。至于回国以后,我已经答应许院士,回母校教书了。” Heard Lu Zhou saying that Qiu Chengtong has not said anything again, but the nod said: „That line, you in gold/metal greatly also good. Engages in scholarship is one-party rule that most abstains, only then the collection hundred words, make academic spring up everywhere, will have the collision and sublimation of thought. Jinling University is a good place, is not near to the academic circle, you are willing to engage in scholarship well also there.” 听到陆舟这么说了,邱成桐也就没再说什么,只是点头说道:“那行吧,你在金大也好。做学问最忌讳的便是一家独大,只有集百家之言,让学术遍地开花,才会有思维的碰撞和升华。金陵大学是个不错的地方,离学术圈不远不近,你愿意在那里做学问也好。” Went to the water wood, was equal to standing in the opposite of Yanda (Yanshan University) school of thought that Venerable Qiu as if also realized this. 去了水木,就等于站在了燕大学派的对立面,邱老先生似乎也是意识到了这点。 If the Lu Zhou outstanding scholar, he definitely meets not the stingy price to invite him to come the water wood generally , to promote the water wooden school of thought that meets as an equal to the domestic several mountain tops. 如果陆舟只是一般出色的学者,他肯定会不啬代价邀请他来水木,重新振兴水木学派,和国内几个山头分庭抗礼。 The talent that but Lu Zhou demonstrates, has actually arrived at has made Venerable Qiu not be cruel enough to visit him its waste on the matter beyond learning. 但陆舟展现出来的才华,却是已经到了让邱老先生不忍心看着他将其浪费在学术之外的事情上面。 At least in 20 to 40 years old these days, his talent should belong academic, rather than academic circle. 至少在20岁到40岁的这段时间里,他的才华应该属于学术,而不是学术圈。 After they chatted several, then ended the telephone conversation. 俩人聊了几句之后,便结束了通话。 However when he planned has a dinner, the telephone rang suddenly. 然而就在他打算去吃个晚饭的时候,电话忽然又响了起来。 This time telephones actually not others, is his teacher Professor Deligne...... 这次打电话过来的倒不是别人,正是他的导师德利涅教授…… ...... …… Because of the telephone of Professor Deligne, Lu Zhou arrived at the higher research institute. 因为德利涅教授的电话,陆舟来到了高等研究院。 Since asking for leave, he two months has not stepped into here, go from the side gate almost become lost. 自从请假之后,他已经两个多月没有踏进过这里了,以至于从侧门进去的时候差点迷路。 Finally after touching the office, Lu Zhou knocked the gate. 终于摸到了办公室之后,陆舟敲开了门。 Looks to enter the student in office, Professor Deligne took off the eyeglasses on bridge of the nose, rubbed the forehead. 看着走进办公室的学生,德利涅教授摘下了鼻梁上的眼镜,揉了揉眉心。 „Your paper I have looked......, but speaks the truth, the Goldbach's conjecture has surpassed my research area, moreover this significant conjecture, the light is my opinion is also unable to decide anything, let alone I am your teacher.” “你的论文我已经看过了……但说实话,哥德巴赫猜想已经超出了我的研究领域,而且这种重大的数学猜想,光是我一个人的意见也无法决定什么,更何况我是你的导师。” Regarding the words of Professor Deligne, Lu Zhou showed the understanding. 对于德利涅教授的话,陆舟表示理解。 The Goldbach's conjecture is not Twin Prime Conjecture or Polignac suspected after all, even if its importance cannot compare Wyles's Fermat big theorem, its difficulty is worth entire theory of numbers and even the mathematics circles seriously treats. 哥德巴赫猜想毕竟不是孪生素数猜想或者波利尼亚克猜想,哪怕它的重要性比不上怀尔斯的费马大定理,它的难度本身便值得整个数论界乃至数学界认真对待。 Submits a piece of writing «Math Yearly journal» time he has not assigned the academic edition, " Math Yearly journal » technical editor threw Deligne here the paper directly, cannot make up mind to this paper. 投稿《数学年刊》的时候他没有指定学术编辑,《数学年刊》的技术编辑将论文直接扔到了德利涅这里,想必也是对这一论文拿不定主意。 Lu Zhou enters the subject to ask: „What do you need me to make?” 陆舟直入正题问道:“您需要我做什么？” Deligne: „I will give you to arrange one hour of public lecture in Institute for Advanced Study, what you need to do is prepares ppt and a speech, if you cannot settle on to pay attention to me to send people to help your staff officer. Moreover, I also need you to provide a timetable to me, when told me you to have free time.” 德利涅:“我会在普林斯顿高等研究院给你安排一场一小时的报告会,你需要做的是准备一份ppt和一份演讲稿,如果你拿不定注意我可以派个人帮你参谋。另外,我还需要你向我提供一个时间表,告诉我你什么时候有空。” The Lu Zhou doubts said: „Did my time is not the issue, but...... recently have the academic conference to arrange?” 陆舟疑惑道:“我的时间不是问题,只是……最近有学术会议安排吗？” The trend of academic conference he has had is paying attention, if he did not remember incorrectly, the entire in May is nothing heavyweight conference arrangement. 学术会议的动向他一直都有在关注,如果他没有记错的话,整个5月份都是没有什么重量级的会议安排的。 „No, but not also indifferent,” stopped the moment, Professor Deligne continues saying that „your research results, other enough scholars run specially toward Princeton.” “没有,但没有也无所谓,”停顿了片刻,德利涅教授继续说道,“你的研究成果,已经足够其它学者专程往普林斯顿跑一趟。” Professor Deligne the meaning in words is brief and to the point. 德利涅教授话里的意思言简意赅。 Without the arrangement of academic conference, arranges one and that's the end. 没有学术会议的安排,安排一场就是了。
