Time passed gradually.
The two papers of Xiao Yi have also been officially submitted to "Annals of Mathematics". Of course, according to the normal process, these two papers still need to go through the expert review process.
Although many mathematicians have recognized the results of these two papers during this period, no one has raised questions about the steps. Because the two papers of Xiao Yi are indeed written in great detail, it is difficult to find the problem.
However, for such an important result, a thorough and careful review is still necessary.
To this end, "Annals of Mathematics" organized a very high-level review committee to conduct a final review of these two papers.
Enrico Bombieri serves as the chief reviewer, and also includes Jacob Stix, who is responsible for the far-Abelian geometry of etale's fundamental groups and algebraic varieties, Faltings, who is responsible for the algebraic geometry of the p-adic Hodge theory, and Tao Zhexuan, who is responsible for the analytic number theory of automorphic forms and trace formulas.
In addition to these four main reviewers, there are also some mathematicians who specialize in certain aspects, who have also been entrusted by "Annals of Mathematics" to conduct the final review of these two papers, such as James·Maynard, and I heard that Shinichi Mochizuki has also been invited.
All in all, this is a pretty luxurious lineup.
Of course, these mathematicians are also happy to accept such a commission. After all, this is considered a recognition of them, and it is also an obligation as the most capable mathematicians in a certain aspect.
Testing the important results of the mathematics community is not only responsible for their academics, but also for the mathematics community.
As for the final review period, it is not fixed. It may be very short or very long.
However, what can be said is that quite a few mathematicians have expressed more or less publicly that they hope that these papers of Xiao Yi will eventually pass the review, because once the theory of Xiao Yi is approved by the review committee, they will all benefit from it.
"Brother Xiao, your two papers are too awesome, right?"
In the dormitory, Song Ziyang was reading the article on Zhihu, and then exclaimed.
"According to incomplete statistics, at least more than 40 mathematicians have been able to complete their projects through your theory, and more than 100 have said that their projects can make great progress with the help of Etale's automorphic theory of algebraic varieties. In addition, more scholars have said that your theory has inspired them and given them some ideas on the direction of the next project."
"Let me go, is it true or false? Send me the link!"
Next to him, Ye Cheng shouted immediately after hearing Song Ziyang's words.
Xiao Yi shrugged and said, "Stop talking, my mailbox has received at least 100 emails from other mathematics scholars in the past few days."
"How much mustard?" Song Ziyang's eyes widened immediately.
"Give me Kangkang, give me Kangkang." Ye Cheng on the side immediately rushed to Xiao Yi, wanting to see his mailbox.
Song Ziyang and Luo Qiao were also very curious and came over one after another.
Seeing several people coming over, Xiao Yi could only open his mailbox.
Then the three roommates were blinded by the dense English emails in their mailboxes.
Open an email from anywhere.
"This is... MIT's mathematics professor?"
Clicked on another one, "Wori! Princeton University! Another professor."
"Oh my God, this belongs to University of Cambridge again!"
As they watched, they even pushed Xiao Yi aside and sat directly in front of his computer to browse emails.
All in all, 80% to 90% are from world-renowned universities, and basically the QS rankings of mathematics majors are among the top 50 in the world, covering a variety of countries.
They deeply feel what it means to be treated as a genius.
"Hey, this person only said that his name was Andre Okounkov, and expressed his gratitude... Oh, it should be another professor. He said that his students completed their graduation thesis with the help of your theory, and also provided some help on the topic he was researching?"
Xiao Yi next to him showed a little surprise when he heard the name, and then said, "Huh? It's Professor Okounkov. He is the winner of Fields Medal, Princeton University."
The three people fell silent immediately, okay, now even the Fields Medal winner has appeared, it seems that no one will be surprised if he appears next.
"Scholar Xiao, let me interview you. As a mathematical genius, are you really happy?" Luo Qiao's face turned serious, and he used his fist as a microphone and stretched it out in front of Xiao Yi.
"Uh..."
Xiao Yi was stunned. After thinking for a long time, he sighed, "As you can probably see, I spend most of my time studying every day. I have been isolated from any form of entertainment. Basically, I only have math books to accompany me every day, so..."
The three of them seemed to be able to hear a kind of loneliness belonging to the strong in his tone.
Maybe that's the price?
Just when they wanted to express their comfort, Xiao Yi's tone suddenly changed. "This is so happy!"
"I can accompany myself with mathematics every day and face various mathematical problems. There are also world-class mathematical problems like the Elliott-Halberstam conjecture that I can solve. Why do I feel unhappy?"
The expressions of the three people suddenly became embarrassed.
Depend on!
If I had known earlier I wouldn't have asked!
What ticks eight world-class math puzzles.
To be honest, they still don't understand what this Elliott-Halberstam conjecture is.
They and Xiao Yi are basically from two different worlds!
"Okay, class time is coming, get ready to go to class!"
At this time, Xiao Yi looked at the time, then picked up his schoolbag and threw it behind his back.
After so long, he was finally going to take his first class after college.
This class is Mathematical Analysis, and the teacher is Professor Liu Bin.
When Xiao Yi appeared in the classroom, all the students in the class became excited.
There have been rumors before that Xiao Yi will not be like them. After completing these four years according to the set training plan, maybe he will become a graduate student in one or two years.
Therefore, there is a high probability that even if Xiao Yi comes back, he will not go to class with them.
Unexpectedly, he appeared in the classroom today.
So they all said hello, "Scholar Xiao Hello!"
Faced with the greetings from his classmates, Xiao Yi also smiled and nodded towards them, "That's good!"
Then he sat with his three roommates.
For a moment, Ye Cheng seemed to be able to feel the envious looks from their classmates.
Hey, who gave them the good luck to be assigned to the dormitory together with Xiao Yi?
