At exactly 2 : 00. 两点整。 …… …… Lu Zhou of suit and dress shoes steps onto the tribune, because of whispering, but somewhat noisy lecture hall, shortly will be peaceful. 一身西装革履的陆舟走上演讲台,原本因为交头接耳而有些嘈杂的报告厅,倾刻间安静了下来。 No one maintains the discipline, everyone is very tacit, a both eye stares to that person on platform, or suspicion, either anticipation, either unemotional. 没有人维持纪律,所有人都很默契,一双双眼睛盯向讲台上的那人,或怀疑,或期待,或面无表情。 If changes individual, let alone speaks the mathematics problems, was staring by so many big shot, perhaps the leg was soft. 若是换个人,别说是讲数学题了,被这么多大佬盯着,恐怕腿都软了。 But stands the Lu Zhou expression on platform is calm, slightly not because of that in pairs line of sight transmission the pressure has stage fright. 但站在讲台上的陆舟却表情从容,丝毫没有因为那一双双视线传递过来的压力而怯场。 This preparation at heart doing, when under the stage has completed. 该做的心里准备,在台下的时候就已经做好了。 Let alone, he was not the first time facing this situation. 更何况,他也不是第一次面对这种场合了。 „Thank has no fear of great distances to catch up to come to Princeton from the all over the world, listening to me to stand reports the research results about Goldbach's conjecture here.” “感谢诸位从世界各地不远万里赶来普林斯顿,听我站在这里报告关于哥德巴赫猜想的研究成果。” According to the convention, to was invited to come to listen to the scholar of public lecture to extend the gratitude, Lu Zhou starts to state the flow of own this public lecture. 按照惯例,对受邀前来听报告会的学者致以谢意,陆舟开始陈述自己这场报告会的流程。 „The content that I spoke will be divided into two parts, part about me when the group construction law of proving the Goldbach's conjecture using, another part proof about Goldbach's conjecture.” “我发言的内容将分为两个部分,一部分是关于我在证明哥德巴赫猜想时所用到的群构法,另一部分则是关于哥德巴赫猜想的证明。” „Believes that before coming to here, my paper everyone has looked. In long tedious step regarding paper, I will give briefly in ppt. But about my explanation, mainly centralism to committed steps as well as thought and mentality two aspects.” “相信在来这里之前,我的论文大家都已经看过。对于论文中冗长繁琐的步骤,我将在ppt中予以简略。而关于我的讲解,主要将集中在对关键步骤以及思想和思路两方面。” „Moreover, I the much time, will remain to inquire the link as far as possible.” “另外,我会尽可能将多的时间,留在提问环节。” Starts the paper of beforehand preparing a lesson sender at the academic conference is not only the academic circle convention, is a necessary formality. If to inquired the link, stands the question that asked is in the paper has to write, or was immaterial, will be considered as one very disrespectfully, and did not have the matter of level. 在学术报告会开始之前预习报告者的论文既是学术界的惯例,也是一种必要的礼节。如果到了提问环节,站起来问的问题都是论文上有写的,或者说是无关紧要的,将被认为是一件很失礼且没有水平的事情。 Regarding big cow present, such issue naturally cannot emerge. 对于在座的各位大牛来说,这样的问题自然不会出现。 Similarly, these in the paper already very clear part that writes, then does not need to attain ppt to get up again. After all everyone's time is very precious, does not make a special trip to Princeton to watch the slide. 同样的,那些在论文上已经写的很清楚的部分,便没有必要再拿到ppt上过一遍。毕竟大家的时间都很宝贵,可不是专程来普林斯顿看幻灯片的。 The prologue ended, Lu Zhou directly enters the subject. 开场白结束,陆舟直接进入正题。 „So-called group construction law, is ‚the overall construction methodology of group theory’ the abbreviation, its core idea is to use the concept of cycle group, overall Move out research infinity issue. Based on integer mold p multiplication group always cycle group theorem, we can obtain......” “所谓群构法,便是‘群论的整体结构研究法’的简称,其核心思想是利用循环群的概念,从整体上出发研究无限性的问题。基于整数模p乘法群总是循环群这一定理,我们可以得到……” Explained, the Lu Zhou laser pen while walked randomly on the white theater curtain. 一边讲解,陆舟的激光笔一边在白色的幕布上游走。 【...... Supposes finite group g and g = p 1 a 1 p 2 a 2 piai, pi is the prime number, ai is the positive integer. Made p ∈ π ( g ), defined deg ( p ) = \ { q ∈ π ( g ) p ~ q) 【……设有限群g且g=p1a1p2a2piai,其中pi为素数,ai是正整数。令p∈π(g),定义deg(p)=\{q∈π(g)p~q) Calling deg ( p ) is the p number of times. Defines ( g ) = again...... 】 称deg(p)为p的次数。再定义(g)=……】 Compares the proof of lattern half about Goldbach's conjecture, the theory of group construction law is more essential, because only then understood part of contents, sits the person who listens to him to explain in the lecture hall can find, the work that he does is actually anything. 相比起后半部分关于哥德巴赫猜想的证明,群构法的理论更为关键,因为只有理解了这一部分的内容,坐在报告厅里听他讲解的人才能了解到,他所做的工作究竟是什么。 Therefore part of contents, careful of especially Lu Zhou explanation, spoke as far as possible clearly each point. 因此这一部分的内容,陆舟讲解的格外细致,尽可能将每一个点都讲清楚。 But sits the person under stage, was invited the scholar, the student who is unsolicited, listens is very earnest. 而坐在台下的人,无论是受邀到访的学者,还是不请自来的学生,都听的很认真。 Especially Jeames Maynard, holds the both arms to sit in the conference sites, listened is especially attentive. 尤其是杰姆斯梅纳德,抱着双臂坐在会场中间,听的格外用心。 Travels together is the enemy, similarly he of research prime number issue was in British new generation mathematician the analytic theory of numbers domain eminent. But as poor|Fei prize popular candidate one, he planned takes 18 years of Fields to reward to increase price for oneself with the twin prime issue, finally actually does not want to act swiftly to get there first by Lu Zhou finally, he of air/Qi burnt down the draft manuscript. 正所谓同行便是冤家,同样研究素数问题的他是英国新生代数学家中解析数论领域的翘楚。而作为菲奖热门候选之一,他原本打算用孪生素数问题为自己拿下18年菲尔茨奖加码,结果却不想最终被陆舟捷足先登,气的他把手稿一把火烧了。 It can be said that he makes a special trip to here from Britain, to give the competitor finds fault. 可以说,他专程从英国赶到这里,就是为了给竞争对手挑毛病的。 However that said...... 然而话是这么说…… More looks downward, his expression is thought-provoking. 越是往下看去,他的表情便越是耐人寻味。 The logic of this China scholar rigorous to make the blood boil degree, present he not only has not discovered any issue, even cannot bear applaud...... 这位华国学者的逻辑严谨到了令人发指的程度,以至于现在他不但没有发现任何问题,甚至忍不住叫好…… The one who sits by him is his postgraduate candidate, is a British young fellow, the name was Irwin. 坐在他旁边的是他的博士生,也是一位英国小伙,名字叫埃文。 Looks an all various professions writing that on the theater curtain flashes through, this British young fellow started a little unable to keep up with the rhythm gradually. 看着幕布上闪过的一行行文字,这位英国小伙渐渐开始有点跟不上节奏了。 Finally, he cannot bear, asked low voice. 终于,他忍不住,小声问道。 „Professor, is his group construction law, what speaking?” “教授,他的那个群构法,到底在讲什么？” Maynard is staring at showing ppt meticulously, silent. 梅纳德一丝不苟的盯着放映的ppt,沉默不语。 This issue he can explain, actually has no way to reply. 这个问题他可以解答,却没法回答。 First he does not think, because diverts attention to miss any detail, second he is afraid a oneself opens the mouth, then cannot bear in the spoken language expresses to the praise of this ingenious method......, but the day before yesterday, he still threatened in individual blog, these 50 pages of papers are the scrap papers, will reveal the acrobatics of this China person at the public lecture of Princeton at the scene. 一来他不想因为分心错过任何细节,二来是他害怕自己一开口,便忍不住在言语中表达对这种巧妙方法的赞美……而就在前天,他还在个人博客上扬言,这50页论文都是废纸,会在普林斯顿的报告会上当场揭穿这个华国人的把戏。 However even he is not willing to acknowledge, now still has to acknowledge, oneself and power gap of opponent, the middle is away from perhaps incessantly a poor prize...... 然而即便他不愿承认,现在也不得不承认,自己和对手的实力差距,中间隔着的或许不止一个菲奖…… Go no going, the math is such realistic thing. 行或不行,数学就是这么现实的东西。 Another side, the back row of lecture hall, two old person very low-key sitting in the corner of conference site, watches the public lecture, while talked about old days with the chatting tone low voice. 另一边,报告厅的后排,两位老人很低调的坐在会场的角落,一边看着报告会,一边用闲聊的口吻小声叙旧。 „Never expected that I left these years, Institute for Advanced Study had/left a talent.” Looks at the young people on stage, Andrew Wiles commends nods, „good, had me in the past half of elegant demeanors.” “没想到我才离开这几年,普林斯顿高等研究院又出了一个人才。”看着台上的年轻人,安德鲁怀尔斯赞许地点了点头,“不错,有我当年一半的风采。” After 2011 returns alma mater Oxford University teaches, Andrew Wiles then rarely returns to Institute for Advanced Study. But the position of Princeton University math department head, gave another talent Charl Sfez Fowman. 2011年返回母校牛津大学任教之后,安德鲁怀尔斯便很少回普林斯顿高等研究院。而普林斯顿大学数学系主任的职位,也让给了另一位天才查尔斯费佛曼。 But past years in his mouth, was 13 years ago, Newton Research institute held that in the late 20 th century most important mathematical course. Over 200 mathematicians listened respectfully to this speech, although at that time in them, only then 1/4 people, can understand the Greek alphabet and mathematical formula on blackboard completely. 而他口中的当年,便是十三年前,牛顿研究所举行的那场20世纪末最重要的数学讲座。超过两百名数学家聆听了这一演讲,虽然当时他们之中只有四分之一的人,能完全看懂黑板上的希腊字母和算式。 As for the remaining 3/4 people, has no fear of great distances to go to Britain, to witness history merely. 至于剩下四分之三的人,不远万里前往英国,仅仅是为了见证历史。 Now is also same. 现在也是一样。 Although the Goldbach's conjecture compared with the widely used Fermat big theorem, is more like tests the intelligence together the test topic, but this intelligence test problem can be admitted by Hilbert eighth asks, obviously it that 23 asked in theory of numbers and even entire world of mathematics position. 虽然哥德巴赫猜想比起应用广泛的费马大定理,更像是一道考验智力的测试题,但这道智力测试题能被希尔伯特放进二十三问的第八问中,可见其在数论乃至整个数学领域的地位。 Perhaps solves it unable the change world like the millennium difficult problem, tool that also cannot to Fermat big theorem such change math, but when solving this problem creates, regarding the entire mathematics circles is the priceless treasures. 解决它或许不能像千禧难题那样改变世界,也不能向费马大定理那样改变数学,但在解决这一问题时创造的工具,对于整个数学界都是无价之宝。 Without a doubt, sits everyone here, is witnessing the history. 毫无疑问,坐在这里的所有人,都在见证历史。 „Hehe,” the Deligne corners of the mouth tear a happy expression, be relentless exposes shortcomings saying that „does not know who initially was, all day an expression of judgment day, planned apologized with the New York Times, but also prepared opening the champagne also went back.” “呵呵,”德利涅嘴角扯开一丝笑意,毫不留情地揭短道,“也不知道当初是谁,整天一副世界末日的表情,打算和《纽约时报》道歉,还准备把打开的香槟还回去。” Wyles coughed lightly, the superficial region crossed this phase of black history: „Only when a person hopeless time, can promote bursting out of inspiration. I will force into the dead end, then unexpectedly finds a way out...... on the result, I achieved.” 怀尔斯轻咳了一声,轻描淡写地带过了这段黑历史:“只有当一个人面临绝境的时候,才能推动灵感的迸发。我不过是将自己逼入绝路,然后绝处逢生……就结果而言,我做到了。” Deligne reveals to say unrestrained/no trace of politeness: „Isn't your previous explanation the action art?” 德利涅毫不客气地揭穿道:“你上次的解释不是行为艺术吗？” „Ok, my dear friend, we changed a topic,” Wyles changed the topic calmly, looked to the content on theater curtain, said, „the Goldbach's conjecture I did not understand very much, from your viewpoint, his paper was the certificate?” “好了,我亲爱的朋友,我们换个话题,”怀尔斯不动声色地岔开了话题,看向了幕布上的内容,说道,“哥德巴赫猜想我不是很了解,以你的观点来看,他的论文算是证明了吗？” Deligne: „This issue you should ask Iwaniec, Faltings. They are the experts of analytic theory of numbers, but I have browsed to the prime number issue. Naturally, after reading his paper, my viewpoint is quite optimistic.” 德利涅:“这个问题你应该问伊万涅茨,还有法尔廷斯。他们才是解析数论的专家,而我只是对素数问题有所涉猎。当然,在看过了他的论文之后,我的观点是比较乐观的。” If not optimistic, he will not arrange this public lecture for Lu Zhou, but suggests its revision. 如果不乐观的话,他也不会替陆舟安排这场报告会,而是建议其修改。 Wyles expression is surprised: „Did Faltings also come?” 怀尔斯表情惊讶:“法尔廷斯也来了？” „Was not he also came,” stopped the moment, Deligne said that „, but was no one is willing to miss” “不是他也来了,”停顿了片刻,德利涅说道,“而是没人愿意错过” At this moment, in the conference site resounded the low voice exclamation. 就在这时,会场里响起了小声的惊叹。 That is the exclamation of surprise. 那是诧异的惊叹。 Meanwhile, contains the praise. 同时,也包含着赞美。 Deligne and Wyles stopped the exchange, looks to the stage. 德利涅和怀尔斯停止了交流,向台上看去。 After a while, Wyles said with a smile: „It seems like our worries seem like unnecessary.” 过了一会儿,怀尔斯笑着说道:“看来我们的担心似乎是多余的。” Looks at the mathematical formula on theater curtain, the corners of the mouth of Deligne, finally stretched a gratified happy expression. 看着幕布上的算式,德利涅的嘴角,终于舒展了一丝欣慰的笑意。 „I have not been worried.” “我从来没担心过。”
