Chapter 114 Submit again
Xu Yuan knew that the content of Lu Chunming's thesis was about differential geometry, which was a graduate course. Although he had read related textbooks in the library before, he was not as proficient in complex functions and partial differential equations.
As for guiding the other party in the thesis, he was a little worried that it would affect Lu Chunming's progress.
The thought lingered here, and he still declined slightly.
"Brother."
"I don't know much about differential geometry."
"I believe in your junior brother. My thesis is just about the simpler content in differential geometry." Upon hearing this, Lu Chunming quickly took over the conversation and insisted on his own ideas.
"Not complicated."
After saying that, before Xu Yuan could speak, he added: "Of course, if it's inconvenient for Junior Brother, then forget it."
Having said that, Xu Yuan couldn't continue to refuse, so he had to agree first.
"Then let me take a look."
As he said this, he took the paper from Lu Chunming and looked at it.
As Lu Chunming himself said, the main content of the paper is indeed just a study of some theories of differential geometry, and it also contains a lot of other mathematical knowledge.
After making sure that he had given some advice, Xu Yuan started to get serious.
Afterwards, he gave his guidance and discussed with Lu Chunming on the theoretical application of the algorithmic process and the format of his paper.
Every time he spoke, Lu Chunming would suddenly realize something and become more and more excited.
I knew I made the right choice to come and find Xu Yuan.
that's it.
The two of them talked until almost noon, and Xu Yuan finally felt relieved. He picked up the bottle of water that Lu Chunming had received in front of him and moistened his throat.
"These are the only things I can see that need to be modified. It shouldn't be a big problem."
"Thank you so much, Junior Brother. I will make the changes as you said when I get back."
Lu Chunming took over the paper that pointed out the problem and spoke without hiding the joy on his face.
Every paper written by Xu Yuan could satisfy Professor Tang, and almost no revisions were required before it could be submitted. Hearing Xu Yuan's words, he was naturally very relieved and in high spirits.
Especially when I thought that I would no longer have to be criticized by my instructor, the depressed mood I had in the morning instantly dissipated.
At the same time, this also gave him a clearer understanding of Xu Yuan's mathematical level.
No wonder it can solve the smoothness problem of Monge-Ampere equation.
However, considering that Xu Yuan had been delayed for such a long time, he, as his senior brother, certainly could not just stand there and say nothing.
Besides, strictly speaking, he is also Xu Yuan's political counselor.
Although it seems that will no longer be the case soon.
The thought stayed here, and he immediately patted his chest and said generously:
"I'll treat you to lunch that afternoon. In the cafeteria or outside, just tell me."
When Xu Yuan heard this, a helpless smile suddenly appeared on his face. He knew that Lu Chun was very warm and generous, but the other party also helped him a lot in the past. How could he feel embarrassed to let him treat him to a meal?
Besides, he really didn't help much, he just looked at the paper briefly.
Anyway, we only talked for less than two hours, so it doesn’t matter much.
You have to know that he was not in a hurry to submit this paper, so it would make no difference whether he finished it half a day earlier or later.
"No need, Senior Brother."
"Don't be polite with me, senior brother. We still have this little money." Lu Chunming insisted again.
At this moment, suddenly several familiar voices came from outside.
"Brother Yuan, let's go to the cafeteria to eat."
"Hurry up and act, our get out of class ends early today so there won't be many people here."
Then Li Zhenya, Wang Haitao and Liu Yang came in and called Xu Yuan to have lunch together.
But the first person they saw was Lu Chunming.
Obviously, they didn't expect the counselor to be here. They were stunned for a moment before they reacted and quickly greeted him.
"counselor."
Among them, Li Zhenya asked curiously, "The instructor is here to see Xu Yuan as well?"
"I asked Xu Yuan to help me look at the paper." Lu Chunming answered truthfully.
Normally he gets along with students in his class in friendship mode, so there is nothing worth hiding.
But when Li Zhenya, Wang Haitao and Liu Yang heard this, their eyes widened.
"Instructor, please ask Xu Yuan to help with the paper."
They had already listened to Xu Yuan finish writing his graduation thesis yesterday.
It's just that the specific content of the thesis is not clear. Even though Xu Yuan has experience in writing two mathematics papers, he is indeed qualified to review the papers of some senior students.
But Lu Chunming's was a graduate thesis, and the content was different from his undergraduate thesis.
According to normal circumstances.
You should go and ask your mentor for advice.
The key point was that Lu Chunming looked serious when he talked about this matter, which made them wonder if Xu Yuan had become more powerful again.
"Don't you know that Xu Yuan just finished his graduation thesis?"
When asked, Lu Chunming did not give a direct answer, but instead asked back with some confusion.
"I know." Li Zhenya looked surprised.
I thought, what's wrong with finishing my graduation thesis? Is it something surprising?
As sophomores now, they will have to write graduation thesis and defend them in two years.
Xu Yuan was just a little early.
It wasn't just Li Zhenya, even Liu Yang next to him had the same puzzled expression.
It was Wang Haitao who noticed the content on the computer screen at this time, and a look of curiosity appeared in his eyes.
He immediately asked Xu Yuan:
"Brother Yuan."
"Were you writing a paper this morning?" "Why is it in English?"
This sentence also attracted the attention of Li Zhenya and Liu Yang. They moved their eyes to look and found that what Wang Haitao said was true.
Upon hearing this, Xu Yuan answered casually, "Because I want to submit an article to a journal."
Wang Haitao was even more confused.
"Submission?"
“Can the dissertation still be published?”
"Domestic journals?" Liu Yang couldn't help but ask.
In response to this, Xu Yuan simply uttered four words calmly, causing several people to widen their eyes instantly.
"Annals of Mathematics."
They all experienced what happened last year, so how could they not know the value of the Annals of Mathematics in the mathematical community? It was because of his solution to the Carmichael number spacing problem that Xu Yuan gained the aura of a mathematical genius.
But they really didn't expect that Xu Yuan's undergraduate thesis could be published in the Annals of Mathematics.
"Fuck."
"Brother Yuan, are you going to publish another paper in the Annals of Mathematics?"
“Is this really your graduation thesis?”
As mathematics students, they were familiar with graduation thesis, but they had never heard of anyone's graduation thesis being published in the yearbook.
They are all writing graduation theses, so the gap is too big.
After hearing this, Lu Chunming realized that Li Zhenya and others did not know the value of Xu Yuan's graduation thesis.
So I explained it to them in detail.
"In his graduation thesis, Xu Yuan solved the proof of the global smoothness of the free boundary of the Monge-Ampere equation in partial differential equations, and expanded this theorem to a wider range of fields."
"It is a sure thing that my paper will be included in the Annals of Mathematics. Now you know why I asked Xu Yuan for advice on my paper."
Li Zhenya and his friends were so shocked after hearing this that they never expected that Xu Yuan had solved another difficult problem. He almost treated the annual journal papers as cabbages.
You can publish whatever you want, whenever you want.
It’s really enviable.
"Brother Yuan, you are so outstanding that the students in our department are under increasing pressure."
"Isn't it possible that the requirements for our graduation thesis will be raised by then?"
"Can you write what Gao demands?"
Xu Yuan listened to what Li Zhenya and the other three said, and felt neither amused nor helpless.
The reason why he didn't tell them in detail was not only because he was worried that they would be upset, but also because he didn't feel anything. He just proved the overall smoothness in Monge-Ampere's equation.
It may also be that I have already published a paper in the Annals of Mathematics, and my mindset has changed accordingly.
Right now it feels almost like successfully solving a real test.
Since we already know it, it doesn't matter. We will change the subject and stop talking about it.
"Didn't you say that there are not many people in the cafeteria now? Let's go quickly."
After he finished speaking, he turned back to Lu Chunming and said, "How about we go to the cafeteria to eat together, Senior Brother?"
"Okay."
Lu Chunming readily accepted the invitation.
What he also wanted to say is that when Xu Yuan's paper is published, it will not just be the undergraduates who will be under pressure.
I guess all the masters and doctoral students in the department are overwhelmed by the pressure brought by Xu Yuan.
Li Zhenya and the others became interested in eating as soon as they heard about it, and walked out the door as soon as they finished speaking.
……
……
It’s the end of the month in a blink of an eye.
Thanks to Xu Yuan's hard work these days, the writing of the thesis is finally nearing completion.
"Finally done, there shouldn't be any problem."
Friday, December 2004, 12, in the discussion room of the School of Mathematics.
Sitting at the computer, Xu Yuan took his hands off the keyboard, stretched himself, and was very satisfied with his achievements in recent times.
When Chen Yuran, who was sitting next to them, heard this, she quickly stood up and walked over with a happy look on her face.
"Have you finished your paper?"
"Yes." Xu Yuan nodded in response to Chen Yuran's question.
Seeing that Xu Yuan was about to graduate early to pursue a doctorate, Chen Yuran felt a sense of urgency, so she had been studying hard these days to prepare for the postgraduate entrance examination.
She basically knew everything about Xu Yuan, and then she said something more when she thought of something.
"Then you should go find Professor Tang and ask him to help you check it."
"No need this time."
Xu Yuan shook his head and said, "Professor Tang has read the manuscript and told me to submit it as soon as I finish writing it."
Since the last time he asked Professor Tang for help in reviewing a paper, Tang Shihong knew his ability in writing papers.
It can be said that there is no place to modify.
Therefore, Tang Shihong had told him before that after writing the paper, he could just send it to the editorial board of the Annals of Mathematics. After all, it was impossible for the paper to fail in proving the global smoothness of the solution to the Monge-Ampere equation.
After saying that, Xu Yuan proceeded skillfully, filling in his identity, school information and the name of his instructor, and immediately sent the paper.
Chen Yuran stood behind and watched this scene. She felt deeply happy and proud for Xu Yuan.
Although she is not a mathematics student, she knows how difficult it is to publish a paper in the Annals of Mathematics.
But Xu Yuan published a paper again a year later. Such speed and mathematical talent can only be described as terrifying. No wonder she was attracted by Xu Yuan's concentration when he was studying.
