Volume 1: Student Life Chapter 285 is absolutely right!
In a conference room at MIT.
Faltings did not directly answer James' question, but turned his head to look at Professor Deligne and Professor Langlands.
Deligne and Langlands understood, but they looked at each other again.
Deligne spoke first: "The idea of distributed deconstruction is not difficult to understand, but for its specific application, it is not enough to just rely on the extended research of Cramer's conjecture..."
"As for the distribution deconstruction method itself, I personally haven't found any problems yet. It can be said that the field of number theory is about to welcome its third method!"
Although Deligne's own research area is not number theory.
But after he spoke, everyone present listened carefully to the words of this big man who proved Weil's conjecture.
No one doubts this big man's right to speak in the field of number theory.
So, when I heard Deligne call distributional deconstruction the third method in number theory.
Even though James was mentally prepared, he still couldn't believe his ears.
Both excited and shocked!
However, after Deligne finished speaking, Faltings did not express his opinion. He asked directly: "Robert, what do you think?"
The Robert that Faltings mentioned was Professor Langlands who exchanged glances with Deligne.
His full name is Robert Langlands, and like Deligne, he has been at Princeton University and is a professor at the Institute for Advanced Study.
In 1979, Professor Langlands developed an ambitious revolutionary theory that established a new connection between two major branches of mathematics: number theory and group theory.
This theory is the famous "Langlands Program"!
This extremely difficult task took 30 years to complete.
Professor Langlands also won the Wolf Prize in Mathematics in 1996.
In addition, in recent years, the call for Professor Langlands to win the Abel Prize has gradually increased.
Therefore, seeing that Professor Faltings asked for the opinion of such a big shot again, James immediately concentrated and waited attentively for Professor Langlands' words.
Langlands glanced at the other people in the conference room.
In the conference room, besides Deligne and him, there were also Wiles, Fefferman and others.
Some were invited by James to serve as reviewers of Chen Zhou's paper.
Some came up on their own out of curiosity.
They wanted to know what kind of confidence this Chinese college student had in taking the initiative to change the reporting time.
Naturally , James .
Just let these people do it.
Therefore, although there were not many people in the conference room at this time, each of them was a big shot that James could not afford to offend.
"The extended research on Cramer's conjecture is just an inevitable product of the distributional deconstruction method. In comparison, the significance of the distributional deconstruction method is far greater than the extended research on Cramer's conjecture." Langlands said slowly.
Although this was not said as explicitly as Deligne's, the meaning behind it was extremely clear.
After getting confirmation from the two big guys, James felt dizzy for a moment.
Could it be that the third method in the field of number theory will be born at this academic conference?
Thinking of this, he couldn't help but feel that his decision was wise.
As the person in charge of submitting papers to the academic conference, he immediately agreed to Yenching University's request.
When Dean Sun Shangping of the School of Mathematics at Yenching University asked about his email address, he immediately adjusted the email address's manuscript receiving method and opened up a channel for Chen Zhou to submit his paper.
Now, what James has done will finally bring him unexpected rewards.
Hearing Langlands' words, Faltings nodded and said, "My opinion is the same as yours. The idea is clear, but the specific method is not enough to just rely on the extended research of Cramer's conjecture."
At this time, Wiles, who was one of the reviewers of the paper proving Chen Zhou's Hailstone Conjecture and proved Fermat's Last Theorem, suddenly said: "I just don't know whether he has completed the proof of Cramer's conjecture..."
"Probably not. He doesn't have enough time." Professor Fefferman, also a professor at Princeton University and a Fields Medal winner, said softly.
He felt that being able to develop the distributional deconstruction method and complete the extended research of Cramer's conjecture was already the ultimate.
He didn't think that Chen Zhou would be able to completely prove the Cramer conjecture in such a short time.
Faltings nodded. "I agree with Professor Fefferman. According to the time, he is on the plane now. His schedule is too tight."
After a pause, Faltings said to James, "I suggest that you move his lecture to the afternoon of the last day and increase the duration of the lecture!"
Hearing what Faltings said, James hurriedly said, "Professor Faltings, don't worry about this. I have arranged someone to communicate with him."
Faltings nodded: "I believe this will be the biggest gain of this meeting!"
This one sentence made James feel relieved and he completely let go of the pressure in his heart.
He was also very grateful to Faltings and others for their willingness to help with on-site review.
Generally speaking, the review of academic conferences is the independent responsibility of the organizers.
Faltings and his colleagues were only invited participants and had no obligation to help with reviewing.
James still remembered that when he first told Faltings about his request for a review, the stern-looking old man frowned and was about to refuse.
It was not until he took out the printed paper and said Chen Zhou's name that Faltings took the paper and took a look at it.
After reading it, I agreed to his request.
James sometimes wondered, when did a sophomore student in China become better than him just by his name?
But there is no doubt that this is why Deligne and Langlands accepted the request for review.
People like Wiles, Feferman, and Terence Tao all became interested in Chen Zhou's paper.
Now that the paper has been confirmed to be correct, subsequent arrangements will be simple.
Moreover, the author of the paper will arrive this afternoon evening.
After the bigwigs left the conference room, each of them had a printed copy of Chen Zhou's paper in their hands .
They can make basic judgments, but that doesn't mean they fully understand the distributional deconstruction method.
Faltings and Deligne walked together.
Deligne said, "Has he really been snatched away by MIT?"
Faltings nodded and said affirmatively: "After he proved the hail conjecture, Yenching University and MIT established a joint training program."
Deligne lamented, “He should have come to Princeton, where the best mathematics in the world is!”
Faltings didn't say anything, but this proud German old man felt that what the Belgian Viscount said was very right!
Chen Zhou should go to the world's center of mathematics, which is Princeton University!
Deligne looked at Faltings, who had remained silent, in surprise, only to find that Faltings was also looking at him.
