Qian Zhijin imdiately called out, "Stop what you’re doing and co see Academician Zhao."
He said this while laughing heartily.
Zhao Yi’s face darkened at once, as several students surrounded him, their faces filled with surprise and excitent. So even raised their cell phones, wanting to take a photo with him.
He didn’t stop them either; he was accustod to such things, and since they were all students from Yanhua University, they could be considered his juniors. Taking a photo with them wasn’t really anything out of the ordinary.
Once the students’ enthusiasm had died down, Qian Zhijin brought over a cup of coffee.
Zhao Yi took a small sip and asked, "Professor Qian, what have you been up to lately?"
"Doing—"
Qian Zhijin was about to give a brief explanation when suddenly his eyes lit up as if he rembered sothing exciting, "I have sothing interesting to show you, sothing you’d never expect."
"What is it?"
Zhao Yi’s curiosity was piqued.
Qian Zhijin led Zhao Yi to the server room and opened a piece of software on a nearby computer. After loading for a while, a three-dinsional figure appeared.
The three-dinsional figure was a line fluctuating in all directions, with peaks and troughs both marked. Dragging forward to continue looking seed to reveal no end.
Zhao Yi recognized it at a glance, "A 3D tremor waveform graph?"
"Yes!"
Qian Zhijin nodded affirmatively.
"Is there sothing interesting about this? It’s research from many years ago, are you still working on this?" Zhao Yi was referring to the ongoing solutions for positions in the 3D tremor waveform graph. The intelligent and automation laboratory had worked on this project and had done quite well.
This project can never truly end.
The 3D tremor waveform graph has no discernible pattern, with the only pattern being that the solutions for the peak and trough positions are related to pri numbers.
Because there is no regularity, it is impossible to finish, just like calculating the value of pi. So laboratories have calculated it to billions and even hundreds of billions of decimal places, and with a supercomputer, one can arrive at a number that can only be expressed in exponential form.
Qian Zhijin chuckled, "Of course not. This ti let tell you, our university’s School of Sciences and School of Information have together finally made a very significant mathematical discovery."
"Related to the 3D tremor waveform graph?" Zhao Yi’s curiosity was heightened, as he considered himself to be very familiar with the 3D tremor waveform graph.
Qian Zhijin said, "Although the findings have not been made public, and it should not be said that the computations and proofs are complete, we are very confident about the results."
"I’ll tell you about this research!"
"The 3D normal waveform graph is infinitely extendable, but we can assu it is finite, aning we can omit the infinite middle part."
"Then, we have discovered a fascinating situation."
"Aligning the peaks and troughs into a columnar figure and arranging its geotric properties, the topology of the resulting geotric figure—"
Qian Zhijin paused for a mont, then loudly announced the answer, "Its topological state is a hollow circle!"
Placed into the ears of an ordinary doctoral mathematician, these words would likely be t with utter confusion, as it involves several branches of mathematics, including number geotry, analytic number theory, non-Euclidean geotry, topology, and of course, an understanding of the 3D tremor waveform graph.
But it was different in Zhao Yi’s ears; he was the one who had researched the 3D normal waveform graph, and he not only understood the aforentioned areas of mathematics but was also one of the world’s top mathematicians.
So he imdiately grasped the concept and said with astonishnt, "Do you an to say, if we assu the 3D tremor waveform graph is finite, in the end, it will always connect head to tail? It would form a closed loop of solutions?"
"Yes!"
Qian Zhijin nodded emphatically.
Zhao Yi listened with great surprise. He imdiately used the "Law of Cause and Effect" to verify and found out that what Qian Zhijin said was true. Assuming it was finite, it indeed ford a closed loop.
This couldn’t just be dismissed as re coincidence.
It was like the value of pi—if one assud that the digits after the decimal point were finite, they would conclude it would eventually cycle back to 3141592653...
Such a coincidence was too striking!
The 3D tremor waveform graph is infinite, which ans the assumption does not exist. However, one could represent the middle part with infinite nodes to express a cycle, which might represent the possibility of solving many mathematical problems in the future.
This research was undoubtedly extrely valuable.
To so extent, this represents a major leap in mathematical theory, with number theory research achieving significant and critical breakthroughs.
Zhao Yi suddenly looked up at Qian Zhijin and asked, "Who did you work with to co up with this?"
"——"
Qian Zhijin hesitated ’fiercely,’ and it took him quite a while to say, "It was discovered by our lab."
"Your lab? Who?"
"To be precise, it was Team Leader Liu who, while observing the patterns and doing the calculations, noticed a strange coincidence, and then he brought in Zhou Li from the School of Sciences, along with Zhang Rongkun, and a few of them got together to research it," Qian Zhijin explained briefly before asserting, "I definitely contributed as well, since I was the one who offered so ideas while they were thinking about the problem. It’s probable that my na will be included in the paper; otherwise, how would I know so much about it?"
Zhao Yi pulled the corner of his mouth forcibly and said, "So, to put it simply, you had nothing to do with it?"
"Zhao Yi, ah, Academician Zhao, that summary of yours is a bit harsh!"
Qian Zhijin’s face turned a bit dark upon hearing this.
Zhao Yi readily conceded, saying, "Alright, without you, Professor Qian, it definitely wouldn’t have been discovered."
"That’s more like it, haha!"
Qian Zhijin shalessly accepted the complint, then asked, "Zhao Yi, what do you think? Do you believe the conclusion is correct?"
Zhao Yi nodded and said, "I think there’s no issue."
"That’s great!" Qian Zhijin instantly burst into laughter, feeling exhilarated by Zhao Yi’s affirmation, which was undoubtedly good news, indicating their research was correct.
Although most of the research had nothing to do with him, he could at least get a na on it; having one’s na associated with world-class mathematical research was quite an achievent.
Qian Zhijin continued to inquire, "Zhao Yi, how would you classify this research? I know it’s world-class, but could it win an award on the world stage?"
Zhao Yi thought for a mont and said, "Even if it doesn’t get the Fields dal, it could still win other awards. Dostically speaking, it would at least get a First-class Award of Natural Science."
"That’s amazing!"
"Indeed, very impressive!"
Zhao Yi was very certain about this.
Once the research results could be published, it would definitely be a world-class mathematics achievent that would interest many mathematicians.
However, whether it would win the Fields dal was uncertain, mainly because too many people were involved in the research.
Zhao Yi felt that the main contributor was definitely Zhang Rongkun. He did not know Zhang Rongkun but was acquainted with Zhou Li and Liu Guangzuo. Liu Guangzuo was a computer expert, and his level in the field of mathematics was probably not much to speak of, while Zhou Li’s mathematical ability was comndable, but his focus was partial differential equations, and he did little research on topology and number theory.
Therefore, the leader could only be Zhang Rongkun.
Such complex computational proof issues couldn’t be solved by having just a direction; they involved a lot of knowledge and required intricate analyses.
Even if the results were published directly, over ninety-five percent of mathematicians couldn’t prove them, which showed that Zhang Rongkun’s level was quite good.
However, proving the process posed no difficulty for Zhao Yi, who could easily deduce the process once he knew the results.
Of course.
He definitely wouldn’t go after soone else’s research, as it held no aning for him.
He was more interested in the results.
In the hypothesis where three-dinsional tremor waveforms are finite, wave peaks and troughs produce results related to pri numbers that form a nurical loop, indicating not just mathematical issues, but possibly also a direct connection to physical problems.
For instance, theoretical physics, M Theory, and particle boundary theory.
Zhao Yi, along with Edward Witten, used three-dinsional tremor waveforms and Fermat’s Last Theorem to construct the topological forms of M Theory’s multidinsional space, and from there they inferred the distribution of energy points that make up particle energy.
If the hypothesis of finite three-dinsional tremor waveforms by chance forms a logical loop, perhaps it could explain the ’mass point’ problem within energy points.
Mass points are special energy points, which get compressed by space.
Why, though?
"Perhaps, the hypothetical closed loop of the three-dinsional tremor waveforms could help find the answer!" Zhao Yi’s eyes brightened as he suddenly found a direction.
