In this empty meeting hall.
in this quiet space.
Hundreds of years ago, this may have been a place of worship for members of the Holy Roman Empire church, and what sounded was the holy voice of devout believers worshiping God.
Or, it may be the symphony of destiny. Although Beethoven left Bonn and never returned to his hometown, his soul after his death may come to his hometown in person to listen to the sound of his proud work, Fate Knocking at the Door, being performed here.
Then a hundred years ago, this place became a busy post office, where all letters from up and down the city were collected and distributed. Perhaps what was heard was the anxious sound of people eager to get news from their family members far away.
Twenty years ago, what sounded here became the voice of the universe, because mathematics is the language of the universe, and tiny beings try to pry into the language of the universe and make discussions.
Today, this snooping discussion started again.
However, when that nervous and young voice sounded, the results of this "snooping" seemed to begin to be announced.
Hundreds of eyes in the audience looked at the place where the sound came from.
And the young man's face finally came into everyone's eyes.
He was sitting at the main table, and he was indeed very young. He seemed out of place with the other mathematicians who were also sitting at the main table and had already gained a reputation in the mathematical world.
And his face also had the same nervousness as his voice.
But the paradox is that although he is nervous, his eyes are very confident.
People realized who he was.
A participant personally invited by Schultz, the author of the paper "Non-singular Analytic and Absolute Remote Abelian Conjecture" recently published online by IHES, and the genius math boy praised in the news, Xiao Yi.
Although surprised, people began to think about what he said.
All in all, it means that according to the explanations just mentioned by Shinichi Mochizuki, a problem that violates the entire system will eventually appear on Far Abelian Geometry.
Or even directly contradicts [Mochizuki Theorem] that Shinichi Mochizuki once proved?
Doesn't this mean using his spear to attack his shield?
More than 95% of the audience felt ridiculous.
Shinichi Mochizuki To a certain extent, it can almost be called the highest achiever in Far Abelian Geometry.
After Grothendieck proposed the direction of Far Abelian Geometry, almost all the subsequent heavyweight achievements were made by Shinichi Mochizuki.
This is why even though almost the entire mathematical community is opposed to it, some people still believe that Shinichi Mochizuki proves the abc conjecture.
Because Shinichi Mochizuki used Far Abelian Geometry to complete the proof, and no one knows Far Abelian Geometry better than him.
Therefore, even Schultz basically never thought about finding out the mistakes of Shinichi Mochizuki through Far Abelian Geometry, because he himself is far inferior to the latter master Far Abelian Geometry in this regard.
But now, this young man is trying to point out the contradiction in the Shinichi Mochizuki paper from this aspect?
Is this... possible?
"This young man is quite interesting."
In the first row of the auditorium, an old man looked at Xiao Yi, smiled, and commented with another old man next to him.
Anyone who is familiar with the mathematics world will probably recognize the identities of these two people very quickly.
Pierre Deligne, and Enrico Bombieri.
From Princeton Institute for Advanced Study, both of them are the world's top mathematicians, and both are winners of Fields Medal.
Of course, besides the two of them, there were many other people present who had the same idea.
[This young man is very good.]
At the same time, compared to the onlookers' interest in this young man, Schultz and Shinichi Mochizuki, after hearing Xiao Yi's words, did not pay attention to the suggestion by such a young man, but began to think faster in their minds.
Shinichi Mochizuki, who had been very calm just now, gradually frowned.
Will there be a conflict with his [Mochizuki Theorem]?
To be honest, just like Schultz never thought about defeating him in Far Abelian Geometry before, he also never thought that he would make mistakes in Far Abelian Geometry.
However, due to the previous fierce argument with Schultz, his mind was always running at high speed, so after hearing this question, he immediately started thinking about it.
Since Far Abelian Geometry is involved, he is confident that he can complete the explanation of this issue.
However, the thoughts that were running at high speed in his mind got stuck when he finally returned to [hodge theater] and his [Mochizuki Theorem].
[Hodge theater], translated as Hodge Theater, is a tool he designed for his IUTT theory, although its name is a bit strange, or it is secondary.
It's like the IUTT theory is translated as Inter-universal Teichmüller Theory - although this name is mainly derived from Grothendieck's [Grothendieck's Inter-universal Theory].
Of course, the two points are also quite common among Japanese scholars. After all, some people name their algorithms [JOJO, DIO, WORLD].
"No, what's the problem?"
As his thoughts got stuck, Shinichi Mochizuki's brows furrowed deeper and deeper.
He suddenly realized with some horror that he... didn't know how to answer this question for a while?
Wait, it can definitely be solved, but he needs time.
His IUTT theory cannot be wrong, and of course, his [Mochizuki Theorem] cannot be wrong either.
At least the latter is recognized by the entire mathematical community.
He looked up and looked at the questioner.
His eyes narrowed, why is it... that child?
However, at this moment, another voice sounded.
"Can you elaborate more?"
It's the voice of Schultz!
After thinking about it, although he was not able to quickly discover the crux of the problem with his familiarity with Far Abelian Geometry like Shinichi Mochizuki.
But he could vaguely feel that the question raised by Xiao Yi might be the key to solving the problem!
He needs Xiao Yi to describe it more carefully.
At this time, Xiao Yi, who became the focus of everyone's attention, nodded after hearing Schultz's words.
"Okay."
Although he was still a little nervous when he spoke in silence just now, at this moment, those nerves have disappeared.
His love for all mathematical problems also makes him unwilling to see the abc conjecture in the mathematical world continue to become a deadlock.
After all, people must pursue the real truth.
After taking the microphone handed over by Schultz, Xiao Yi became the third person to hold the microphone in this discussion.
Before speaking, he glanced at Shinichi Mochizuki.
Shinichi Mochizuki was also looking at him at this time.
However, there was no hostility in Shinichi Mochizuki's eyes.
Some have only a complex emotion.
Just like a child who believes in the existence of Ultraman, when he grows up, he clearly realizes that Ultraman does not exist in this world.
Helpless, but relieved.
Xiao Yi withdrew his gaze and looked down at the A4 paper in his hand.
"So, let's start from the beginning."
"That is Professor Mochizuki's [Hodge Theater] theory."
