Section 320

Xiao still showed quite amazing proof skills and ideas in his paper. Just the idea of ​​trying to solve the problem from the perspective of representation theory can be regarded as a brand new idea.

In particular, the construction of the hail group is very clever. It perfectly captures the generation rules of the hail sequence and lays the foundation for subsequent theoretical analysis. I believe that if we can study the construction ideas of the hail group more, it may also bring a lot of inspiration to many other problems.

Of course, the most outstanding thing is that Xiao incorporated the idea of ​​Diophantine approximation into it. I would like to call this the most exciting step in the whole paper and the most important achievement in this paper. He combined Diophantine theory with representation theory, and made the proof of Langlands conjecture further realized.

As for the dynamic system theory used later and the construction of the periodic orbit classification tree, there is no logical error at all.

In short, I am very happy to see Xiao's return. I haven't seen Xiao's paper for so many years, and now I am finally satisfied.

Now, we can also continue to look forward to Xiao's next paper!

Click send, and his comments were uploaded to his personal blog.

He turned around and looked at the paper again, and then he read it again without any nonsense.

The first time he read it was to see the method, and now the second time, it was for appreciation.

Then, he began his appreciation.

…

After Tao's blog was published, it immediately attracted all kinds of attention.

The proof of the hailstone conjecture had spread when he was still reading it for the first time, so the mathematics community has been waiting for his response. After all, everyone knows that Tao had made important achievements in the hailstone conjecture, so everyone is also very curious about his thoughts on this issue.

And people in the mathematics community know that Professor Tao has the habit of posting blogs, so as soon as his blog was published, it was immediately discovered, and it caused a lot of discussion.

For a time, some international mathematics discussion forums also caused discussions among various mathematical scholars again.

[Sure enough, even Terence Tao thought that it was amazing that Xiao Yi used representation theory to prove it. Before, no one could have thought that there was such a way to think about the Hailstone Conjecture. ]

[Hailstone Conjecture Hailstone Conjecture, didn't Erdős say that the current mathematical community was not ready to face this problem? How come it was solved all of a sudden? ]

[Hey, I think you should change your sentence now, it should be called: Hailstone Conjecture is not ready to face Xiao Yi]

[That's right, maybe Hailstone Conjecture itself didn't expect that it would be solved in just two or three months. ]

[So, what you mean is that Xiao Yi really solved the Hailstone Conjecture not long after he completed controlled nuclear fusion? ]

[I'm just guessing, but I think it's probably the case. Otherwise, who else would have the free time to study a notoriously difficult conjecture in mathematics while studying nuclear fusion? ]

[So, only Xiao Yi could do it. 】

【Oh my god, I can't believe that such a genius could appear in that backward country! 】

【Hey bro, we are the backward country now, and they have developed a 1.0 civilization of controlled nuclear fusion. 】

【So, is there anyone who can stop Xiao Yi from completely mastering mathematics? 】

【No one can stop him now! Now only he can stop himself! 】

Chapter 265 Approval

Green River, Utah, USA.

Green River is a very small city with only about 800 people living here.

However, after the JNEO project was determined to be built here, it began to become lively here. At least after many scientists came here, in order to meet the needs of these scientists for daily life, various infrastructures were also built in this city.

Of course, this place also attracted a lot of investment, mainly because some businessmen believed that JNEO could succeed and could create the first controlled nuclear fusion reactor in their free world here in Green River. When the time comes, after some expansion, there will definitely be great business opportunities here, just like Los Alamos back then.

Therefore, this small city, which has a population of more than 100 people less than ten years ago, seems to have become more vibrant.

At this time, a temporary project department has been built in the area circled by JNEO, which is the kind of container transformation, which is very common in various construction sites.

As for the research institute, it is definitely impossible to build it. With their efficiency, the research institute is still far from being built.

What's more, it is completely meaningless for them to rush to build it now. The most important problem is how to get the materials.

If the materials are not made, what is the use of building a research institute within a day?

There are countless research institutes in the world, even those related to controlled nuclear fusion, and there is no shortage of them.

"Cowley, have you heard?"

In the project department, Steven Cowley, who served as the project leader of JNEO, was looking at the construction site outside with a sad face, and suddenly heard a voice from the side.

Turning his head, he saw another important figure in JNEO, Professor Cody Bryan of MIT, who was also an expert in the field of nuclear fusion. He was originally in charge of nuclear fusion research at MIT and was one of the candidates for the person in charge. However, all the candidates at that time rejected the president's "good intentions" and asked him to find someone else.

So Cowley became the unlucky guy, and Cody Bryan eventually became an engineer, anyway, he didn't have to be responsible.

"What's the matter?" Cowley sighed and asked.

Cody said: "Xiao Yi successfully proved an important conjecture in mathematics today, the Collatz conjecture, I don't know if you remember it."

Cowley pulled the corner of his mouth.

He remembered this conjecture. After all, the description of this conjecture is very simple. Anyone who has a certain degree of knowledge of mathematics can understand this description.

"So, you mean, while we are still worrying here, Xiao Yi has come up with another mathematical conjecture?"

"Yes." Cody spread his hands.

"Fuck!" Cowley was immediately indignant.

Originally, he was a very Buddhist scholar. After all, he was studying nuclear fusion, which he knew would not be realized within decades.

In this case, there was no need for him to be anxious.

As a result, now, he suddenly realized this thing without saying a word, and even implicated himself in such an important responsibility.

Now, he simply couldn't help but be anxious.

Thinking that the other party now has the leisure to study other problems, while he is still miserable in such a small place.

So that the original Buddhist scientist has become irritable now.

However, at this moment, his mobile phone suddenly rang.

He looked at it and cursed again: "Fuck, why is he calling me now?"

Cody took a curious look. Wow, it was the president who called.

Calling at this time...

It always feels like it's not a good thing?

Cowley calmed down, then answered the phone and said, "Mr. President, what can I do for you?"

The president's voice came from the other end: "Professor Cowley, I just want to ask about your progress?"

Cowley clenched his fists, but finally relaxed them, and answered honestly: "Mr. President, our research institute has not been built yet!"

The president asked, "Is the research institute the focus? No, it's not. We all know that your research progress is the focus. What plans have you come up with so far? Have you achieved breakthroughs in results? These are the top priorities. I just want to know these things now. "

"I just got the news that Xiao Yi solved another well-known mathematical conjecture today, called the hail conjecture."

"He has only been able to develop controlled nuclear fusion for less than a year, and he has made such a result. I also saw the blog posted by Terence Tao. Hum, that kid didn't solve this problem back then, and now Xiao Yi has solved it again, and he said it was a brand new idea and a brand new solution, which is a very groundbreaking result."

"Professor Cowley, don't you think that Xiao Yi is slapping us in the face?"

Cowley looked puzzled.

What's so embarrassing about this.

Didn't he just solve a mathematical problem?

Do you think that Xiao Yi was mocking the United States for not having such capabilities by solving nuclear fusion and a mathematical conjecture in a casual manner?

emmm...

Then why don't you send someone to get rid of Xiao Yi?

Anyway, Cowley himself had no idea in his heart. He was born in the UK and did not have such a strong sense of honor and disgrace for the United States. He even regretted it at this time and wanted to run back to the UK.

Of course, no matter how much he complained in his heart, he could not say such words to the president, so after organizing his words, Cowley said: "Sorry, Mr. President, I am deeply sorry for what you said, but our current technology can only achieve this level now."

"As for mathematical research... Sorry, I am not a mathematical researcher, Mr. President, so I may not be able to answer you in this regard."

"But, to be honest, I think we should not compare with scientists like Xiao Yi, after all..."

After considering the words, Cowley finally said: "He is really a little too special."

The president snorted again: "He is always a person, what else can be special."

Cowley: "..."

Who knows whether Xiao Yi is a person?

But he did not respond. He now realized that the president called him just to make a fuss and vent his temper.

At this moment, he was just telling himself frantically that he could just bear with it for another year or two and it would be over.

In next year's election, he must vote for the Democratic Party, so as to avoid another Republican Party to come and tease him.

In the White House, the president probably didn't expect that the guy on the other end of the phone was planning to vote for the opposition party.

However, this time the fuss was over, so he didn't say anything more and hung up the phone.

Beside him, the Secretary of State was standing on one side.

Looking at the Secretary of State, the President thought for a moment, then said: "How is the mission in China going now?"
