Chapter 255: Chapter 112 Professor Frank, Would You Like to be a Reviewer? _5
Until the waiter had already delivered the Italian grill they ordered, this Professor Zhang remained indifferent to the delicious food.
Lott Degen also didn’t disturb the other person, but simply picked up his knife and fork and started eating with relish.
Fortunately, Zhang Shuwen still rembered they were in a restaurant, so he didn’t delve deeply but only quickly skimd through and seriously read the validation report at the end of the paper given by Yanbei University’s supercomputing center before putting the paper aside.
Yes, he did not return it to Lott Degen.
“You don’t need to do this, Professor Tian has already published the paper on ArXiv first,” said Lott Degen as he glanced at the paper.
Zhang Shuwen directly replied, “I can’t believe Qiao Yuzhen could accomplish this in such a short ti, so I hope to beco one of the reviewers. Rest assured, I will review this article with the strictest attitude and prudence.”
Lott Degen was montarily stunned. Clearly, he only wanted to talk to Zhang Shuwen about Qiao Yu today and didn’t seem to invite him to be a reviewer, but for such a proactive offer…
“Well then, you know, Professor Zhang, I am indeed planning to invite so Huaxia scholars to review this paper. If you insist, why not? I have already had the results verified with TIGER, and if the final result matches the paper’s report, then you will be one of the reviewers.
Now it’s ti to satisfy the strong curiosity of a paper editor. Professor Tian said, not only did you attend that symposium, but was the concise result of this paper also your requirent? Really? When was that symposium held?”
Lott Degen shrugged, gave his answer, and posed his question.
“Yes. I was invited to attend that symposium, which was during the ti I went to Huaqing this year…”
Zhang Shuwen had just started to explain when Lott Degen interrupted: “Wait, this year? I rember you just went to Huaxia, and you haven’t been back for long.”
“Yes, if I rember correctly, that symposium was on February 7, of course, Huaxia Ti, which is the early morning of February 6 here,” Zhang Shuwen said confidently.
There was no way that day’s mory was too deep.
“Wait, February 7? Today is February 23. If I rember correctly, when you spoke with Professor Tian today, you discussed the feasibility report on this proposition on February 7? So from determining to do this topic to completion, hmm… it only took half a month?”
Lott Degen asked in surprise.
Zhang Shuwen nodded, looking at the School of Mathematics dean opposite, who held a knife and fork, looked up in surprise, and felt a bit happy in his heart. After all, Qiao Yu is Huaxia people, and a young Huaxia who hasn’t received systemic Western education.
“Yes, Professor Dugen. This is also why I hope to be the reviewer of this paper. To be honest, I was very surprised to see his results, because his ideas were still very immature at that ti. I gave him one suggestion.
That is to leave all the complex stuff to the proof process, and the result must be simple to be a truly useful mathematical theorem. If the paper results are correct, it ans he not only listened but also accomplished it.”
Zhang Shuwen answered calmly.
“Well, I’m more interested in this story. Your roast is getting cold; you can talk while eating. I’m very interested in knowing what happened that day.”
…
This lunch, which was overly sumptuous for Western habits, took about two hours.
Excluding the ti Zhang Shuwen focused on the paper, the ti explaining Qiao Yu was about half. But this was enough to make Qiao Yu’s image beco vivid and full in Lott Degen’s mind.
Plus so filters…
This is a humble and well-mannered genius.
He hasn’t received relatively complete mathematical education. Most of his mathematical knowledge cos from self-study. Even before he had this idea, he didn’t know this basic tool, the Riemann-Roch Theorem.
Even without anyone’s guidance, he could understand Schulz’s papers.
Of course, the latter was also just sothing Zhang Shuwen heard and was temporarily unverifiable. But even if soone had guided him, it was astonishing enough.
After lunch, Zhang Shuwen asked, “Professor Dugen, I want to ask, if the supercomputer re-verification proves the correctness of the formula, which experts do you plan to invite to review this paper?”
Lott Degen smiled and replied, “Obviously, Schulz is a good choice. I think if he knows a kid as talented as him extended his theory, he would be very interested.”
Zhang Shuwen asked, “And who else?”
Lott Degen said in a consultative tone, “What do you think about Harvard University’s Danis?”
“Isn’t he in the team with Professor Raskin that just released the Geotric Langlands Conjecture? Shouldn’t they be quite busy?” Zhang Shuwen said, frowning.
“I rember his team has two Huaxia-descendant professors. Even if Danis doesn’t have ti, for a paper of this caliber, I think he would give it to capable professors to review rather than just randomly find a student,” Lott Degen laughed confidently.
Of course, this confidence not only cos from the confidence in this paper but also from his status in the mathematics world.
