Chapter 405
August passed in busyness.
Xu Qingzhou occasionally went to Professor Roberts' place to ask about complex function problems.
This is the meaning of having a supervisor.
As a top mathematician who has studied mathematics for decades, Professor Roberts revealed two words all over his body—experience.
Explaining things clearly in simple terms.
Xu Qingzhou stayed in the office for about two hours and already felt he had benefited a lot.
Seeing Xu Qingzhou was about to leave, Professor Roberts stood up and went to the bookshelf on the right to rummage, "There are some materials here, I think you will be interested."
Office.
After a long while, he dug out a stack of manuscript paper.
"This is Lars Ahlfors' research manuscript on complex functions, of course, a rubbings version; the original manuscript was put in the library by me."
"Thank you, Professor."
Xu Qingzhou was a bit surprised and thanked him.
Lars Ahlfors, a master of mathematics, winner of the first Fields Medal, won the Wolf Prize in Mathematics in 1982, guided the development of complex function analysis for more than half a century, and also had outstanding achievements in Riemann surfaces and analytic functions.
Such a manuscript is quite precious; some are research results that have not yet been published.
"If you want to see his other original manuscripts, I recommend you go to our neighbor, Harvard University." Professor Roberts said with a smile.
Xu Qingzhou nodded.
Lars Ahlfors taught at Harvard University for most of his life until he retired. It's a pity that this master of mathematics passed away in the 1990s.
Whether in Xia or abroad, the mathematical circle is really a circle; people in mathematics, economics, physics, biology, chemistry, etc., are all in this circle.
No matter which field, wanting to reach the best requires a lot of talent.
The people standing at the top of the pyramid are just a small handful, so everyone knows each other more or less.
Xu Qingzhou also told Professor Roberts about his particle physics work.
"Particle physics..."
Roberts nodded slightly, supporting Xu Qingzhou's decision to cooperate with others to study pentaquarks, "The beauty of mathematics lies not only in the rigor and harmony of its internal logic, but also in its ability to bridge the gap between theory and practice. By applying complex mathematical models to practical problems, we are able to reveal the deep laws of the natural world."
Of course, besides the reason above, he felt that the content Xu Qingzhou was currently studying was too difficult, the chance of success was slim, and starting to develop other fields now was also not bad.
"By the way, I have already fought for you, go fill out the project application report; if nothing unexpected happens, there will be a sum of project funds."
Professor Roberts thought of the serious matter again.
Xu Qingzhou nodded: "Okay, I will submit the report as soon as possible."
Having money to take, don't take it for nothing.
September.
Boston is located in the northeastern United States, with a temperate marine climate; the temperature in September is quite good, cool and pleasant.
Harvard Business School, Song Yao and a short-haired girl walked out of the teaching building; this person was exactly Kelly.
Kelly asked: "An Italian restaurant opened outside the school, do you want to go try it?"
"Sorry, not today, I have to go home." Song Yao shook her head; there was an annoying boyfriend still waiting at home.
"Going back to accompany your boyfriend?"
"Yes."
"Xu Qingzhou, a legendary and mysterious man." Kelly clicked her tongue, the person who solved three world-class mathematical conjectures, "Very curious about the story between you two, I think it must be very romantic."
Xu Qingzhou is legendary, and Song Yao beside her is also very amazing; one could say she is one of the smartest women she has ever met. After all, this is a student that even Professor Morton praises endlessly.
Two proud children of heaven, both very proud people, such people can walk together...
This lady from France had already imagined many romantic encounters.
"I was his high school classmate... the story started at..." Song Yao thought for a while and said: "He went to the cafeteria, his meal card had no money, so he borrowed my meal card, and we got to know each other."
"Just like that?"
Kelly was a bit surprised, originally thinking there was some moving love story.
Song Yao nodded slightly; counting it this way, her and Xu Qingzhou's story really did originate from borrowing a meal card once.
Other boys were cautious in front of her, only this guy...
Or rather, this guy's skin was relatively thick.
Song Yao came back to her senses and invited Kelly: "This weekend, if you have time, you can come to our place as a guest; Xu Qingzhou is very good at cooking Sichuan cuisine." "I'm looking forward to it!"
When Song Yao got home, she indeed saw Xu Qingzhou buried in calculations.
"If it weren't for me, you would definitely be a super big homebody."
Song Yao complained while putting things down.
Hair messy, with dark circles under his eyes, looking like he hadn't left the house for days.
Oh, right, not like, this guy just hadn't left the house for days.
She walked over and rubbed Xu Qingzhou's hair, "Xu Qingzhou, I dislike you so much."
"5 minutes." Xu Qingzhou said, taking a deep breath.
Riemann Hypothesis, the second proposition inequality of the Landau-Siegel zero, a bit of a small difficulty; this inequality describes the quantity or distribution characteristics of prime numbers within a specific interval.
"Okay, wait until I change my clothes and come out; if you are still sitting here, humph humph~"
Two minutes passed.
No errors in the content, keep reading!
Hearing footsteps, Xu Qingzhou gave a start and ran into the bedroom happily.
Song Yao shook her head helplessly, waiting for Xu Qingzhou, holding her phone to look at some 'conquering boyfriend secrets' shared by Ding Jiahui on DY.
Girl: "Baby, do you want to mop the floor or walk the dog."
Boy (thinking): "Walk the dog."
Boy returns from walking the dog.
Girl: "Do you want to mop the floor or wash the dishes."
Boy (thinking): "Mop the floor."
A while later.
Girl: "Do you want to wash the dishes or hang the clothes."
Boy (thinking): "Wash the dishes."
Song Yao pursed her lips; this guy Xu Qingzhou is very smart, this trick definitely won't work, but... she summarized a principle: to do a good job, one must first sharpen one's tools.
Perhaps, one could try something else?
"Your smile is a bit strange." Xu Qingzhou came out after changing into a sports suit.
"You saw wrong."
Song Yao put away her phone and stood up calmly.
4:00 PM, the two had already changed into their gear and went out for a run.
Song Yao turned her head to look at her boyfriend who didn't look tired, and said: "You should exercise more; all you know is to stay at home all day."
"Yes, I need to strengthen my kidneys and body." Xu Qingzhou swung his arms, also feeling he had been too tired these past few days.
"Heh~"
Song Yao chuckled twice.
"Song Yao, your 'heh' has very strong insulting power."
"And then?"
"You're done for tonight." Xu Qingzhou said viciously.
Song Yao's tone was flat, "I'm so scared."
"..."
Xu Qingzhou squinted his eyes. Song Yao, oh Song Yao, everything in the world has to be paid back.
The apartment is right next to the Charles River, which can be considered a top-notch place for running and exercise.
The two started from the knowledge & library services (library), went west along the south bank, passed Boston University, and ended at the Harvard Bridge, about 5 kilometers.
Jogging along the river, one could smell the faint scent of mud and algae, the experience was quite good.
Xu Qingzhou and Song Yao turned back from the Harvard Bridge and ran another two kilometers before finding a spacious place to stretch.
