Chapter 179 The letter left by Professor Mirzakhani(2/2)
Moreover, the research in each field of mathematics is quite profound, and it is basically the most cutting-edge knowledge in the current field.
Even if he only read it once in a short period of time, he could not say that he fully understood all the knowledge points.
However, Xu Chuan already had a good idea of the general situation.
The route taken by Professor Mirzakhani is somewhat similar to the mathematics he had previously discussed with Professor Artur Avila.
Using domain expansion, the function is converted into a subgroup and connected to the intermediate domain and collection, and then generalized.
However, what he and Professor Artur Avila were talking about were some issues that pushed it to the Langlands Programme, such as some conjectures derived from the automorphic l function.
Professor Mirzakhani pushed it towards the cohomology class of algebraic closed chains, and tried to use this method to penetrate into algebraic geometry.
This may be related to Professor Mirzakhani's previous research field. After all, her research field during her lifetime was in algebraic geometry.
I have to say, this is a pretty clever idea.
The only female Fields Medal winner in history, her mathematical insights and inspirations are richer than the world knows.
"Such a mathematical genius...sigh~"
At the desk, Xu Chuan sighed and carefully collected the manuscript papers and documents on the desk.
Then he got up to wash up and go to bed.
He will return to Princeton tomorrow and will study these things carefully.
...
After paying homage and seeing him off, Xu Chuan followed Deligne back to Princeton.
But after he came back, he asked Professor Deligne for a week's leave, not to go out and play, but to concentrate on sorting out the manuscript papers left for him by Professor Mirzakhani.
After all, although the knowledge there is rich, it is all Professor Mirzakhani's essays and manuscripts, some ideas, and some unfinished things.
He needs to sort out these things systematically and then conduct in-depth research on them.
Professor Deligne had no objection to his request for leave, nor did he ask him what he was going to do on leave.
This chapter is not over yet, please click on the next page to continue reading! Even if you ask for leave to play, he will agree.
If Princeton didn't have the habit of tutors taking the initiative to give students vacations, Deligne would have wanted to give Xu Chuan a vacation.
Not to mention the study in the second half of the past year, which was delayed for several months, but in the first half of this year alone, from February to May, he really saw the madness of this student.
Twenty-four hours a day, more than fourteen hours of which were spent studying. He and Edward Witten combined could barely have enough energy to satisfy him.
Deligne wondered strangely, if he continued like this, wouldn't he have anything to teach him in another year and a half?
There is no way, this student's understanding and absorption of knowledge is too fast.
Moreover, the diligence makes people want to cry.
Deligne thought that he had been diligent enough in his studies when he was young, but in comparison, his diligence was nothing.
I don’t attend parties, I don’t travel, I’m not interested in electronics, internet, and entertainment... In addition to eating and sleeping every day, I only have to study.
A bit like a robot built specifically for learning.
Such people are supposed to be eccentrics and extremely difficult to deal with. For example, Grigory Perelman, who proved Poincare's conjecture, is such a eccentric.
He refused almost all social interactions and awards. He studied mathematics like an ascetic, and even the Fields Medal could not attract him from the mountains and forests.
It can be said that the two people's personalities are almost exactly the same. Apart from being interested in learning, they are not very interested in other things.
But compared to Perelman, his student's human sophistication is not weak. At least, within the normal scope of an ordinary person.
For example, after he returns to China, he will bring some specialties and gifts to him and Witten. He will also participate in various awards, receive and express his own opinions and remarks. If there is a need for him to hold a report meeting, he will not do so as long as the reason is legitimate.
Rejection. This is the complete opposite of Perelman.
