Chapter 464 Why Are All the Assistants Female?

Now that he decided to take it slow first, Xu Chuan put down his research and stopped after sorting out the research results of KL-66 materials.

After a complete and detailed mathematical mechanism explanation has been made, the remaining work is to convert it into a mathematical model, and then use the model to deduce it to determine what needs to be done to realize the strong diamagnetic mechanism of KL-66 material. applied to other superconducting materials.

This is a process that requires constant experimentation and takes a long time, but relatively speaking there are not many problems. As long as you continue to calculate and experiment, you can always lock in the final suitable method.

For computational materials science, this is where mathematics is most powerful.

After computational materials science has developed to a certain level, it can directly simulate a series of processes from raw materials to finished materials through a series of mathematical methods and models.

The most difficult part is to use mathematics to find suitable mechanisms and models.

But now the most difficult part has been solved by him, and the rest can be left to the Sichuan-Hai Materials Research Institute.

The calculation model owned by the Chuanhai Institute of Materials has become quite powerful after continuous improvement over the years.

The next morning, after getting up and washing up and having breakfast, Xu Chuan walked to the study as a habit, preparing to continue his research. When he reached the door, he suddenly stopped, remembering that he had decided to postpone his research yesterday.

Shaking his head with a dumbfounded smile, he turned around and went back to the bedroom to change his clothes, and then headed to Nanda University.

I haven’t been back to school for more than half a month, and I don’t know what happened to the four newly recruited students.

Oh, by the way, there's also the matter of the assistant.

Suddenly, a memory flashed through Xu Chuan's mind. No wonder he always felt as if he had forgotten something before, but it turned out that there was another thing hanging here.

It should have been dealt with before going to the capital for the meeting, but now that it has been so long, the school must be anxious.

Walk through the teaching building and arrive at your office.

Opening the door, only Ding Rui and Rong Xinji were in the office among the five students. The other three might have gone to class or were busy with other things.

Xu Chuan didn't care. After all, at the postgraduate and doctoral level, learning basically relies on self-consciousness.

However, the two newly recruited students turned their heads and looked over after hearing the noise. When they found out that it was their tutor, they shouted with some surprise and surprise: "Professor, you are back!"

They haven't seen each other for more than half a month. For them, this is simply a new historical record in their study career.

After all, they had never been without their mentor for more than half a month before.

But according to Senior Brother Cai Peng, it’s only half a month and it’s nothing.

Xu Chuan nodded and responded: "Well, how do you like the textbooks I marked for you before?"

"Another point."

"Almost finished."

The two students answered in different words, but the meaning was the same. Xu Chuan nodded, sat down and turned on the computer, preparing to register for his course.

In the office, Rong Xinji raised his head and glanced curiously at his mentor who was busy with his own affairs. Senior Brother Cai's words came to his mind.

"If you can see a mentor in the office, either he has solved the problem he encountered, or he has little research in his hands at the moment."

Thinking about the problem he had seen more than half a month ago, he swallowed his saliva and asked nervously and expectantly: "Professor, the problem of the strongly correlated electron system you studied last time has been solved. ?”

Although the calculations on the manuscript paper he accidentally saw last time made him, an IMO gold medalist and a graduate student in mathematics, feel desperate.

But he's not someone who gives up so easily.

Moreover, he also wanted to know how far apart he was from his mentor.

So after class, he went online to look up things about strongly correlated electron systems. Although the information he collected was quite detailed, he was not a physics student and did not know the ultimate difficulty of this problem.

It was not until later when he was taking a minor course that he asked professors from the School of Physics that he understood the significance of the problem of strongly correlated electronic systems for condensed matter physics.

If, for mathematics, the seven millennium problems are the most prominent seven peaks, then the number theory direction he studied is probably the most famous for the Riemann Hypothesis.

The status of the problem of strongly correlated electron systems in condensed matter physics is no less important than the Riemann Hypothesis in pure mathematics.

As for the difficulty, since they are two completely different systems, it is difficult to compare in terms of difficulty.

But his professor at the School of Physics said that the difficulty of the strongly correlated electron system problem may not be as difficult as the Riemann Hypothesis, but it is definitely not less difficult than the 'Goldbach Hypothesis', one of the most important in pure mathematics, and even Higher.

Rong Xinji may not know much about the physics direction, but when it comes to the mathematics direction he studied, it is very clear.

When he heard this answer, he gasped on the spot.

Goldbach is a representative of additive number theory. Although it was not selected into the seven Millennium Difficulties, that is only because relatively speaking, the other two conjectures related to number theory that were selected into the Millennium Difficulties involved There are more fields, and after being solved, it can promote the development of mathematics and even science to a greater extent.

Not being selected as one of the Millennium Problems does not mean that the Goldbach Conjecture is not difficult. If it were not difficult, this conjecture would have been solved long ago, nearly three hundred years from 1742 to now.

A problem at the level of the Goldbach Conjecture made Rong Xinji instantly understand the gap between himself and his mentor.

This gap is probably not appropriate to describe as a billion points.

After all, he really never thought that he would be able to solve a mathematical problem of the level of the Goldbach Conjecture one day, even if he was an IMO gold medalist.

After all, IMO gold medals are not rare. There have been hundreds of people who have won more than a hundred years since the event was held.

However, among these nearly a thousand people, how many can touch this T1 or even T0 level problem? You can count them on your fingers.

It can only be said that the degree of perversion of his mentor is ranked at the top even in the entire history of mathematics.

Of course, at this moment, Rong Xinji is more concerned about whether the problem of the strongly correlated electron system has been solved by this mentor.

Hearing the student's curious question, Xu Chuan replied without raising his head: "No, the problem of strongly correlated electron system is not so easy to solve."

"Then why did you go back to the office? Didn't Senior Brother Cai say that you usually come back after solving the problem?" Rong Xinji asked straightforwardly.

Hearing this, Xu Chuan raised his head, glanced at the student, and said: "If you are talking about the problem you saw here more than half a month ago, it has indeed been solved."

Rong Xinji's mouth twitched, and he uttered a sentence for a long time: "Congratulations, Professor."

Well, what Senior Brother Cai said was right.

He thought that the tutor had made an exception this time. After all, it is normal for this level of problem to have no progress.

Unexpectedly, this tutor finally solved the problem before appearing.

Although I don't know how long the tutor has been studying this problem, even if there is only the last step left, it is a world-class problem.

Just like the Goldbach conjecture, even though the mathematicians of the British Empire proved the weak Goldbach conjecture in 2013, the strong Goldbach conjecture is still far away after nearly ten years.

In more than half a month, this difficult problem can be solved. What should he say?

Stand up and shout six six six?

Although he felt that the student's expression was a bit strange, Xu Chuan didn't think much about it. After reporting the schedule-related matters, he picked up the mobile phone on the table and called President Tan Shaoyuan.

After hearing that he was already in Nanjing University, President Tan quickly hung up the phone.

After a while, he personally brought two administrative assistants who had been selected long ago.

Walking into the office, Tan Shaoyuan smiled and greeted him: "You finally came out of the house."

Xu Chuan smiled embarrassedly and said: "I had some research inspiration before, and I forgot about the assistant."

Tan Shaoyuan smiled and said: "It doesn't matter, Academician Xu, your research is important, it's not a big deal to wait here for a while."

After a pause, he slightly moved aside to reveal the two assistants following him, and introduced: "These two assistants selected for you by the administration have rich work experience. Academician Xu, how about taking a look first?"

Behind him, the two assistants introduced themselves.

The slightly taller one is called Tang Ran, with a simple ponytail and a strand of fine bangs, half of her forehead is exposed, and she looks very energetic and capable.

The other one is slightly shorter, called Lv Ling, wearing a pair of round-framed glasses, with long black straight hair over her shoulders, and looks very cute.

After taking a look at the assistants selected by Nanjing University for him, Xu Chuan couldn't help but take another look at President Tan, opened his mouth, and hesitated to speak.

To be honest, he doubted whether it was true that the two assistants mentioned by the president just now had rich work experience.

After all, judging from their appearance, the two female assistants were probably no more than 25 years old.

Moreover, when did the assistants of Nanjing University have such excellent appearance?

Although he was not obsessed with appearance, he had to say that the appearance of these two female assistants was not a problem for them to be department beauties in Nanjing University.

Of course, what Xu Chuan didn't know was that these two assistants were not actually selected from Nanjing University.

Originally, Nanjing University selected two assistants, one male and one female, from the administrative department, but later they were all replaced.

Noticing his gaze, Tan Shaoyuan smiled and asked: "Please rest assured about the selection, Academician Xu. Tang Ran and Lu Ling are both very excellent comrades, and their work is absolutely careful, stable and reliable."

Xu Chuan opened his mouth and wanted to ask why they were all female comrades, but he finally held back.

To be honest, the work of assistants, whether it is a research assistant or an administrative assistant, is basically hard and tiring.

Not to mention lesbians, even gay men may not be able to hold on to the assistant position for long.

So he didn't understand why the school chose two female assistants for him. It would be better to pair him with a male as a laborer.
