Genius of the Rules-Style System

Chapter 282: Chapter 200: One thesis, solved in 2 minutes!_3

With only two simple mistakes in over a dozen pages of complicated calculations, it was already quite impressive. However, mathematics does not allow for even the smallest errors, as any mistake can lead to completely wrong conclusions.

"Whoosh~~"

The surroundings were in an uproar again.

If the black young man and the Norwegian man with a big beard could be considered "hired actors," the person who had just handed Zhao Yi their paper was a professor from the University of Madrid, who had made research contributions in the field of partial differential equations and had certain fame in the international mathematics community.

Everyone understood now. freewebnøvel.com

Zhao Yi’s ability to quickly find errors in the black young man’s paper was a true reflection of his skills, not part of some act.

Wiles felt he had been played.

As Zhao Yi took the fourth paper, Wiles had only looked at less than two pages. He knew he had lost face and staying there would be pointless.

"You’re very good!"

Wiles said symbolically, with a resentful expression, handed back the manuscript to the original owner, and directly walked away.

"Tsk~"

Some people behind made mocking sounds.

As a matter of fact, Wiles was not a popular figure, even in the United Kingdom, and was not welcomed by his peers.

This was not some ’professional rivalry’; rather, Wiles had not conducted any mathematical research in over a decade and had simply been receiving awards and giving lectures about his proof of Fermat’s Last Theorem everywhere.

When someone flaunts their achievements everywhere, it’s strange to have a good reputation in the industry.

Moreover, many top mathematicians considered Wiles to be a fraudster, as his proof was too complicated. Even if they could understand the content, it was difficult to clarify the overall logical relationship.

No one has yet been able to definitively point out any errors, but many top mathematicians still refuse to accept his proof. They believe the proof should be simpler and clearer, not something that most people cannot understand.

Now, seeing Wiles being put to shame by a young Chinese man, they felt somewhat pleased and were also amazed at Zhao Yi’s genius.

"Look at that! He can solve a paper in just two minutes; such a genius! And he’s not even twenty yet!"

"No wonder he can solve the Collatz Conjecture, and the proof is so simple that even undergraduates can understand it."

"That’s what a real proof should look like, unlike..."

"His wave diagram is also amazing; I’ve been studying it recently, and the more I study, the more I find it brilliant. It’s even better than the Riemann Function."

"..."

After making a big splash, Zhao Yi greeted the local mathematicians and had a brief conversation with Zhou Li from his university, before joining a group to look around the venue.

There’s no set start time for the International Mathematics Congress; the opening ceremony marked the beginning, but the venue had been opened early for registration and mathematicians began their exchanges a week before.

People arrived to register, and once they were registered, they were assigned to different groups for academic presentations. The schedule was coordinated based on the registration time and participants. freewebnøvel.coɱ

Zhao Yi, Liu Hemin, and several others from the Science Academy were assigned to the same discussion group. Their sub-venue was a large conference room with a capacity of over 200 people.

Although the conference room was not small, with most groups having only around 100 people, when important figures gave academic presentations, people from other groups would come to listen, making the room crowded.

At that moment, someone was giving an academic presentation, but as it was only a "minor role" for a 10-minute speech, there were not many people listening attentively. Basically, the person on stage was speaking while the audience was "sightseeing."

Zhao Yi sat down and listened carefully for a while, only to find it uninteresting, even he could understand it...

Later, he simply returned to the hotel with the group from the Science Academy to prepare for his own presentation.

This aspect was quite troubling for him.

The "Three-dimensional Trembling Wave Diagram" would be most suitable for a presentation, but the problem prompted by the Supervision Law had not been solved, and he felt it was not perfect.

If he were only to discuss previously published research, it would seem like he was merely "resting on his laurels."

"Should I point out the errors in Wiles’ proof paper?"

Thinking about it, Zhao Yi still wasn’t satisfied. Regardless of the presentation content, he hoped to find the problem.

"Starting tomorrow, I’ll go to the venue to listen to academic presentations, maybe I can find some inspiration there."

Zhao Yi made a decision.

The next day, he went to the venue early and patiently listened to one academic presentation after another.

The organizers arranged the academic presentations regularly, with invited long presentations scheduled in the morning and afternoon. Short presentations would be arranged during the remaining times.

Most short presentations were uninteresting, merely discussing recent work, attracting attention, expressing opinions, hoping to gain recognition, or simply wanting to get on stage and show themselves.

Long presentations, however, were worth listening to attentively. For instance, Zhao Yi listened very carefully to lectures on partial differential equations, even taking notes on things he didn’t understand.

He thought that to find the conclusion drawn by Supervision Law, other advanced mathematics disciplines might be of great help.

Unfortunately,

Zhao Yi listened for two consecutive days, reaping very little. On the third day, it was his turn to present. He was scheduled for the last long presentation in the morning.

Before that, there was another long presentation. Zhao Yi originally planned to close his eyes and rest for a while, but he suddenly became alert when he saw who the presenter was.

Wiles?

"Now we will have Andrew Wiles present his research on algebraic geometric objects of elliptic curves!"

"Whoosh~~"

There was applause.

Wiles, with a smile on his face, turned on the microphone, thanked the audience for their applause, and glanced at Zhao Yi while speaking, before finally discussing the content of his presentation.
