After the meeting, when they went to have dinner, the two professors with the highest status in the academic world naturally walked together with Qiao Yu and Tian Yanzhen.

Well, I have to put Qiao Yu first here.

After all, the big guys came together this time because they wanted to chat with Qiao Yu a little more.

"Well, I heard that mathematicians are graded as Fields Medal mathematicians, and mathematicians with sixty-minute presentations... Then if I just give a sixty-minute presentation, am I already a second-tier mathematician? "Qiao Yu asked Schultz beside him excitedly.

It’s not that I don’t give Mr. Pierre Delini face, but that this boss is a bit older after all. Relatively speaking, Peter Schulz, who is not yet forty years old, should understand the minds of young people better. There is no obstacle to chatting. "First of all, I have never heard of this statement. But I think even if there is such a statement, the sixty-minute lecture on mathematicians should refer to the World Congress of Mathematicians, not this kind of statement. Satellite conference.

And there are many types of sixty-minute reports. They are opening reports, closing reports, main venues, or sub-venues... In short, if there are no restrictions, sixty-minute reports are actually very common, so if you are referring to World Mathematics The sixty-minute report at the family meeting was indeed very valuable.

Secondly, if you can give a sixty-minute report at the World Congress of Mathematicians, you will usually win many mathematics awards. For example, many Fields Medal winners have been invited to give six-minute lectures at the World Congress of Mathematicians at different times. Ten minutes report.

If I remember correctly, your supervisor, Professor Tian, ​​once won the Veblen Medal. And I don’t think you should think about it now, it doesn’t make much sense. You will even be nominated for the Fields Medal next year, but I think it’s a big mistake. The probability is to accompany him.

Because you are still too young. When I was your age, I was still working hard to participate in IMO, but you have already come to participate in the mathematics conference. So, I think you don’t need to worry at all. Bypass the so-called second level of mathematics. Well, wouldn’t it be better to just become a first-rate mathematician?”

Peter Schulz shrugged his shoulders and said.

These words also made Pierre Delini and Tian Yan smile knowingly.

Successful older people mostly like young people who are both capable and motivated, because it's like seeing their younger selves.

"Oh, that's it. But I also want to participate in this year's IMO, and I'll go in July. I also want to win a gold medal and bring glory to the country." Qiao Yu didn't care about the smiles of the old professors and said grandly. "You? Going to participate in IMO? You are not qualified to participate, right?" Pierre Delini took over Qiao Yu's words.

"Ah? Why am I not qualified? IMO as long as high school students under 20 years old can participate?" Qiao Yu looked at this math giant in surprise.

"Yes, the problem lies with high school students. Only high school students who have not registered in a university are eligible to participate in IMO. Aren't you already at Yanbei University?" Pierre Delini said, and then looked at He glanced at Tian Yanzhen next to him.

"Oh, I'm not afraid of that. I just came to Yanbei University for the past six months to get used to college life. In fact, my student status is still in high school." Qiao Yu explained understandingly, and then glanced at Director Tian. Tian Yan really smiled but

language.

When the final registration was made, Qiao Yu's student status was indeed still in Xingtie No. 1 Middle School. However, after submitting the school certificate and registering, he had already transferred to Yanbei University, creating a time lag. Generally speaking, after the registration is reviewed,

, the IMO organizing committee will not confirm the student status information of each player, nor does it have the authority.

Of course, Qiao Yu's situation is indeed somewhat different...

"Oh? But as far as I know, you have a paper published by the unit of Yujiang University. Before IMO is officially held, there will be another paper published by the unit of Yanbei Mathematics Research Center. Of course, the paper publishing unit may be related to yours.

Student status doesn't matter.

Generally speaking, the IMO organizing committee does not pay attention to these, but if other delegations complain that it is obviously unfair for you to take the exam..." At this point, Pierre Delini spread his hands,

The expression seems to say you know...

Qiao Yu was stunned. He really hadn't thought about this. He asked suspiciously: "No, other delegations can also complain about whether the players are qualified to participate?"

"Of course, if you participate in IMO, it will cause trouble to the vast majority of delegations, and you may even receive collective complaints from multiple delegations. The organizing committee must also consider everyone's opinions, so I think if you want to get a

If you win an IMO gold medal, it will probably be very difficult. Unless you can seal everyone's mouths."

Pierre Delini shrugged and said.

What can I say, this angle is too tricky, and Qiao Yu didn't expect it. What does good fortune and misfortune depend on? There is no doubt that this is it.

Isn’t it his own preference to decide which institution the paper he writes will be accepted by? And this is obviously not his problem, but the problem of the journal editor. After all, if the paper is written by a middle school, the editors may not even read it, and just throw it in the trash can.

.

"Well... what if the paper is postponed?" Qiao Yu asked after thinking for a while.

"The paper can be postponed, but tomorrow's meeting cannot be postponed. Let's put it this way, at tomorrow's meeting listening to your report in the audience will be the experts and judges of the IMO organizing committee, and there may also be IMO team leaders from many countries.

Professor, after they see you on the podium tomorrow, how do you think they will feel when they see you in the IMO arena again in July?

Anyway, if I were also a team leader, I would definitely have some questions. And you should also think about the IMO judges and let them supervise your participation in the competition. Well, to be honest, if you must have this obsession,

If you want to participate in IMO, I might be able to recommend you to be a judge for this IMO."

Qiao Yu thought for a moment, then shook his head and said, "Forget it, let's wait until the time comes. We have alternate members anyway."

After briefly chatting about IMO, we arrived at the restaurant.

In fact, it's past lunch time, but the living habits here are obviously different from those in China. Those big bosses and professors obviously don't care about lunch, and are used to eating sandwiches, barbecue and the like.

Everyone’s topic also changed to Qiao Yu’s complementary proof method for the geometric Langlands conjecture.

The method of local-global consistency correction operator borrows some basic results of higher-order homology and local-global compatibility theory, and takes advantage of the basic properties of homomorphic space HOM, especially the homomorphism between local and global systems.

Mapping to solve problems is indeed a brand new idea.

The most active ones were probably Dennis and Schultz.

In the words of Schultz: "I have always believed that the full picture of the geometric Langlands conjecture is far from being revealed, but there is no doubt that Qiao Yu's plan brings us closer to its true essence. Such work is not only technical

This achievement reflects a completely new way of thinking in mathematics.”

Dennis's assessment was simpler: "Yeah, it's really exciting."

Of course, there are some subtexts that neither of them said because everyone knew it.

It’s hard to imagine that this was the insight of a sixteen-year-old boy.

All the professors attending the meeting tacitly agreed not to mention Professors Sam and Frank.

Of course, it's useless to mention it. The tenderness shown in the academic world is often an illusion.

It's just that Qiao Yu, who should be in high spirits, is actually not in a high mood.

Going to Australia to win an IMO gold medal was a goal he had previously set for himself, but now he may not be able to win the medal due to human intervention, which made him feel quite complicated.

But thinking on the bright side, maybe Professor Pierre Delini was being alarmist. Maybe he thought the team leaders were too bad...

After all, IMO is a team competition, and a gold medal does not actually determine the final result of the team competition.

Forget it...I don’t want to think about it anymore!

Now that things have come to this point, we can't not give a report at the meeting, right?

Qiao Yu could still tell which one was light and which was serious.

Pan Jingyuan came to the hotel in the afternoon with several professors from Huaqing.

After the plane landed and had internet connection, Pan Jingyuan received a message from Professor Dennis. He called Dennis back as soon as possible.

After arriving at the hotel and checking in, Pan Jingyuan immediately found Dennis in the hotel room. "Did Qiao Yu give a complete solution?" Pan Jingyuan asked as soon as they met.

"Yes, I said, he is a magical Chinese boy." Dennis nodded. "Is there a detailed process?"

"Of course, he has already explained it in detail to the organizing committee's review committee during the morning seminar. But I think it's not fair to Qiao Yu to repeat it again, but you can hear his thoughts tomorrow. So, wait.

Just one day." Dennis spread his hands and said.

"Tomorrow?" Pan Jingyuan was stunned for a moment, confused, and asked, "But I remember that Qiao Yu's report should be on the morning of the second day of the conference."

"Yes, that was originally the case. But it has been changed. The organizing committee and Professor Schultz will come forward to persuade Professor Ukai to give the opportunity to give the opening report of the conference to Qiao Yu. This has been unanimously recognized by the review experts of the on-site organizing committee. .Of course it also includes my approval.”

Well, Dennis' last words of "my approval" are not to flatter himself. Many people don't know that he was actually the one to give the opening report of this conference.

Then Dennis said with a smile: "So in tomorrow's opening report, Qiao Yu will spend about fifteen minutes briefly explaining about conjugate ridge singular points, and use the rest of the time to tell everyone how he solves the problem of local-global unity. sex problem, and modify the Ambidexterity theorem.”

"Opening report of the meeting?" Pan Jingyuan was stunned, and then he couldn't help but feel a little envious.

After all, he has never given an opening report at such a global academic conference so far. He has spoken at many small-scale report conferences.

"Yes, Pierre Delini took the initiative. The organizing committee is probably in a hurry to change the brochure. Fortunately, this is not the World Congress of Mathematicians, otherwise it would be really messed up. Huh... but at least this helps us Solved a problem. You understand, Pan."

Dennis shrugged and said.

Pan Jingyuan was stunned for a moment, but he quickly reacted. "So we don't notify Sam and Frank in advance?"

"Sam will come to this meeting, and I will talk to him in the evening. As for Frank, I think he will also know about it immediately. After all, Mr. Lucas Eisen should already know the news." Dennis didn't say anything. Said without hesitation.

Pan Jingyuan was stunned for a moment, but he quickly came to his senses.

"So we don't notify Sam and Frank in advance?"

"Sam will come to this meeting, and I will talk to him in the evening. As for Frank, I think he will also know about it immediately. After all, Mr. Lucas Eisen should already know the news." Dennis didn't say anything. Said without hesitation.

Obviously he has made his decision.

LGIR is used to further construct a global morphism, and the reconstructed object of each local singular point is mapped to a new algebraic layer, thereby achieving consistency on the entire algebraic variety and making the geometric Langlands conjecture independent of features. This is still true in the case of layer automorphism.

This idea was something they had never thought of before. It was crazy enough and effective enough. With Dennis' understanding of Sam, the other party should be able to understand his difficulties.

This is not betrayal, but respect for mathematics.

More effective and almost flawless mathematical methods are more likely to resonate with everyone.

"I understand." Pan Jingyuan breathed out deeply. He originally planned to talk to Qiao Yu, but now he suddenly gave up. After all, he actually had special feelings for Qiao Yu.

At least on this issue, he can be regarded as half of Qiao Yu's mentor. It was he who led Qiao Yu to understand this topic in depth. If this was a final exam, then Qiao Yu seemed to have submitted a full score answer sheet that was recognized by the authority. As a class teacher Teacher, it is a special feeling to know how this answer sheet was written from the report meeting the next day.

Dennis nodded towards Pan Jingyuan and said: "Okay, Pan, go eat something and take a rest early. Anyway, this is actually good news for us. We succeeded. Next we can use these new Tools to do more.

High-dimensional Langlands correspondence, Langlands parameterized space structure, non-commutative geometry and Langlands correspondence... Look, we have saved a lot of time and can focus on more interesting problems. I believe Sam and Frank must have thought so too."

"Of course, you're right. But... forget it, thank you, Dennis." "Haha, no need to say thank you. We are partners now."

On the other side, in the activity room prepared by the organizing committee for this exchange of mathematicians, Li Lixing, who had also just arrived at the hotel, was chatting with a familiar professor.

"Hi, Professor Li, have you heard? The organizing committee for tomorrow's opening report has decided to make a temporary change. It is said that Professor Ukai feels unwell, so his report will be changed before the closing ceremony."
To be continued...
