Chapter 209 The upcoming International Mathematical Congress

The astronomy and astrophysics communities are suffering.

If you are not a scholar in these two fields, you will hardly understand how attractive the extended application of the Xu-Weyl-Berry theorem is.

Since the Nobel laureate Professor Sal Perlmutter personally endorsed this achievement as an epoch-making technology, since the old king abdicated and the new king ascended the throne, countless astronomers have turned their attention to this mathematical tool.

When some scholars used this tool to make some amazing results on some exoplanetary objects, a new wave of reforms was set off in the astronomical world.

For example, in March last year, an astrophysics professor from New Zealand used this tool to precisely lock on a star named 'TRAPPIST-1'.

And using this tool, the professor of astrophysics accurately judged its relevant parameters, such as diameter, radius, volume, age, temperature, distance and other information.

If that's all it is, it wouldn't be a surprise.

But the more significant achievement is that using this tool, the New Zealand professor of astrophysics successfully calculated the planets of this star.

It was determined that it has a total of seven planets, and three of them are in the habitable zone.

More importantly, using the extended application of the Xu-Weyl-Berry theorem, the professor even calculated some precise information about two of the planets.

For example, information such as size, mass, gravity, and rotation time, these two terrestrial planets have little deviation from the earth.

The most important thing is that through this tool, the professor and another mathematician jointly calculated the existence of the atmospheres of these two planets by using parameters such as spectral boundaries and luminosity features in conjunction with the Xu-Weyl-Berry theorem tool. And it was judged that one of the terrestrial planets has an atmosphere dominated by nitrogen and oxygen.

When the results were announced, the entire astronomical community was shocked.

It is not uncommon for terrestrial exoplanets to be discovered, and it is not uncommon to be able to determine whether an terrestrial planet has an atmosphere.

But this is the first time in history that the atmospheric data of this terrestrial planet can be accurately judged.

With an atmosphere dominated by nitrogen and oxygen, various parameters are almost the same as those of the earth, and in addition to being in the habitable zone, this planet can be said to be a second earth.

Under such conditions, there is a very high possibility of life, even advanced life, on it.

If the professor hadn't been unlucky and gravitational waves were discovered not long after the news was announced, then this discovery will undoubtedly dominate the astronomical popularity in the second half of 2017.

But this discovery also made scholars in the astronomy and astrophysics circles really pay attention to this mathematical tool.

Many people have started to study and study, including some Nobel laureates.

It is a pity that the mathematics applied in this tool is too advanced and unfriendly for scholars in the astronomy and astrophysics circles.

Most people are unable to understand the mathematics papers that document this tool, let alone apply calculations to it.

After discovering this, many scholars in the field of astronomy and astrophysics tried to find Xu Chuan's contact information, and wanted to ask him about the application of this tool.

But it is a pity that Xu Chuan himself is not very interested in the achievements of the astronomical community, and he has no idea to go to the astronomical community to give mathematics reports, let alone one-on-one tutoring.

After tossing and tossing for nearly a year, all the Nobel laureates came forward but failed to invite this stubborn and stubborn creator, which made scholars in the astronomy and astrophysics circles shed bitter tears.

It was supposed to be a tool to revive the glory of the astronomical world, but the creator didn't care about the astronomical world at all. No way, people in the astronomy community brought their ideas to the 2018 International Mathematical Congress.

I hope that the IMU committee can invite this genius to report an extended application of the Xu-Weyl-Berry theorem at the conference.

The members of the International Mathematical Union Committee who received the joint application were also surprised by this.

However, the joint application of three Nobel Prize scholars and more than 20 top scholars made everyone in the committee realize that this is an excellent opportunity to expand the influence of mathematics.

Therefore, after deliberation by the committee, it was immediately decided to invite Xu Chuan to give another report on this application at this year's International Mathematical Conference.

And send invitation letters to scholars in the field of astronomy and astrophysics, inviting them to come to participate in this International Mathematical Congress.

In the history of the International Mathematical Conference, it is not without the participation of scholars from other fields, but basically scholars from other fields took the initiative.

Like this time, it is the first time in history that the mathematics community has actively issued large-scale invitation letters to scholars in other fields.

Undoubtedly, if this report can be held smoothly and successfully, it will be the most brilliant one of the International Mathematical Congress.

Of course, the premise is that the speaker, Professor Xu Chuan, needs to agree.

As a core figure, he is related to whether scholars in the field of astronomy and astrophysics will accept the invitation letter sent by the International Mathematical Union and whether they will participate in this mathematical conference.

So after the committee ended, the secretary-general of the International Mathematical Union immediately called Xu Chuan himself to make the initial invitation.

And if Xu Chuan refused on the phone, he would directly buy a plane ticket and fly over to persuade him face to face.

After all, countless scholars in the astronomical field had sent invitations to this young scholar before, but they were all rejected without exception.

However, unexpectedly and fortunately, the genius on the phone agreed to this additional report invitation.

After hanging up the phone, Xu Chuan shook his head.

Scholars in the field of astronomy and astrophysics found the International Mathematical Union, which he did not expect.

Although he has no interest in the astronomy community, since he has agreed to this extra report meeting, he will definitely prepare well.

After letting several students continue to study by themselves, Xu Chuan turned on the computer and dug out the extended application papers of the previous Xu-Weyl-Berry theorem.

This mathematical tool is indeed excellent. Based on the boundary value and eigenvalue, it can change different observation data, and make certain changes to verify different precise parameters.

It's just that there is no other use except for the observation of distant celestial bodies, which is also the main reason why he lost interest in this tool after completing the basic application of it.

After re-reading the thesis and making some arrangements, Xu Chuan logged on to the official website of the International Mathematical Union IMU and uploaded his thesis and report topics.

Including the previous one-hour report, now he needs to make a total of two-hour report at this International Mathematical Congress.

Of course, the two reports are separate.

Moreover, considering the impact, the IMU committee specially arranged the extended application report of the Xu-Weyl-Berry theorem on the first day of the report meeting.

In this way, those invited astronomers can take part in the award ceremony of the International Mathematical Congress.

This is the most important moment in the quadrennial mathematics conference. It can perfectly commend the brilliance of the mathematics world to the outside world and attract more talents to mathematics.

When Xu Chuan agreed to come down to attend this extra report meeting, the International Mathematical Union immediately fed back the good news to the astronomers and astrophysicists who had previously jointly written to apply.

The astronomers who received this good news geared up and booked their air tickets on August 1 in advance, preparing to fly to Brazil to participate in this grand event that did not belong to them.

As the opening date of the 2018 International Mathematical Conference gradually approached, the mathematics community became lively as usual.

Many mathematics forums are discussing this matter and making a prediction for this year's winners.

[I don’t know if you have heard, but this year’s mathematics conference seems to have invited many astronomers and astrophysicists. The number of people is estimated to be the largest ever. 】

[? ? ? Astronomers and astrophysicists? What are they doing here for a math conference? Do you sleep under the table? I doubt they will understand any of the presentations. 】

[If it is hypnosis, the effect of mathematics speech is indeed very good (_)]

[I heard that the astronomy and astrophysics communities first applied to the IMU. It seems to have something to do with the Xwell's theorem. These two days, this stuff has become very popular in the astronomy community. Many universities have opened special courses in astronomy and mathematics. Learn this stuff. 】

[Xu-Weyl-Berry theorem? This seems to be the mathematical achievement of the Chinese mathematics genius in the past two years, right? 】

[Yes, I heard that this achievement can be applied to astronomical calculations, which can greatly improve the calculation results, so the astronomical community is now learning this thing. 】

[Unbelievable, it seems that this year's Fields Medal must have him. 】

【Is not this nonsensical? Hodge's conjecture, one of the seven millennium puzzles, was proved by him alone. 】

[I also heard that he and Fefferman are still working together on the NS equation this year, and have already made phased results. Although it has not been fully verified, it should be no big problem. If the Philippine Award is awarded to one person repeatedly, With his achievements, he can win at least twice, or more. 】

[Xu Chuan, Schultz, these two professors should have a stable Philippine award this year, and I don’t know the rest. After all, there are still many top mathematicians. For example, George Williamson, Fernando, Marina Vyazovska, Zhang Wei. The results of these professors are quite outstanding. 】

[The strong are like clouds, and the gods fight! When will I be able to participate in such a grand event, not to mention winning an award, even a nomination is worth a look. 】

[Don't think about it, it is impossible for those who can be nominated to appear here. They are all working hard on research, so they can appear here, explain]

【Too hurtful, this is also ()】
