Chapter 596 I hope you can surpass him one day(1/2)
Zurich is the richest city in Europe and is also rated as one of the most livable cities. More than 120 banks around the world have their headquarters here, making it the most famous offshore banking center in the world.
In addition to its financial status, its ETH Zurich and University of Zurich are also world-famous, ranking respectively No. 1 in the QS World University Rankings.
The main attractions in Zurich are various cathedrals, as well as the National Museum, Niederdorf Pedestrian Street, Augustine Alley, Bahnhofstrasse, etc.
Qin Ke has always believed that reading thousands of books is not as good as traveling thousands of miles, so when he has the rare opportunity to go abroad, he usually makes a more rigorous sightseeing plan. Firstly, he and Ning Qingyun can have a lot of fun, and secondly, he can let Chen
Tell them to make preparations.
This time he came to Zurich was no exception. After leaving the airport and checking into the hotel to rest for half a day, he held hands with Ning Qingyun and spent two days walking around several famous attractions in Zurich.
The ancient Zurich Cathedral full of Roman architectural style and beautiful paintings and stained glass, the bustling medieval commercial street Bahnhofstrasse, the artistic Augustinian alley, and the unforgettable National Museum... are all here.
They left the trail of two people walking sweetly.
After boating on the most beautiful Lake Zurich in Switzerland and feeding white swans and pigeons, the two finally arrived at the Federal Institute of Technology in Zurich.
This is one of the top universities in the world. It has produced 21 Nobel Prize winners, including Einstein, and its mathematics department ranks 8th in the world. But this time they are not here to visit, but to receive the award.
The headquarters of the Swiss Ostrovsky Foundation is in Zurich, but of course the award ceremony and academic exchange meeting will not be held at their headquarters. Instead, they chose the most famous ETH Zurich.
Awarding, giving a report, the process of receiving the Ostrowski Award is almost the same as other awards, except that the appearance of Qin Ke and Ning Qingjun this time caused a more heated scene than before, especially Qin Ke, proved that Riemann
He guessed and became a real academic star, the most dazzling mathematician in the world today.
Similar to Oxford University, many students at ETH Zurich ignored skin color, race and nationality and directly became Qin Ke's fans, especially Qin Ke's one-hour report titled "Proof Ideas of Riemann Hypothesis"
Later, the content of the report was explained in simple terms, connecting more than a dozen mathematics sub-disciplines with an invisible thread, which immediately caused a big sensation. Some people called it "the prototype of a unified mathematics."
During the question and answer session, there was no malicious behavior or confusion among the audience.
With him proving the Riemann Hypothesis and holding the academic status of several international awards, even the Philippine Prize bosses have to avoid his edge - after all, in the near future, this young mathematician who is only 20 years old in front of him is very likely to win.
Will join the ranks of Fields Medal winners.
The entire academic exchange meeting ended in a warm, harmonious and friendly atmosphere, and Qin Ke and Ning Qingyun each had a certificate, a beautiful medal, and a check for 100,000 Swiss francs (about 75
million).
Zurich has a developed international banking industry, and Qin and Ke easily converted the money in the check into U.S. dollars, transferred it to their own bank account in the United States, and continued to use it to "make money" in the U.S. stock market.
Now Ning Qingyun is mainly responsible for this work, and Qin Ke will also participate from time to time.
In their spare time, the two took time from time to time to perfect the mathematical model of automatic trading, and then used the artificial intelligence "Shimmer" to execute the automatic trading. The types of transactions include buying and selling short options and futures operations, and buying and selling individual stocks. The interval between each transaction is as long as two
Months, as short as three days, in most cases you can make a profit of about 5% to 10%. Of course, there are also cases of failure and loss.
But in general, after more than seven months of automatic trading, the balance of the two people's American accounts has grown from more than 3 million to nearly 10 million U.S. dollars, a growth rate of nearly 300%. This also supports the U.S. in recent years.
The short-selling operation's success rate is extremely high due to the bear market's unilateral decline in the stock market.
Without further ado, after the Ostrovsky Award academic exchange meeting, a large number of reporters came over for interviews. Qin Ke and Ning Qingyun answered some questions familiarly. When asked whether they were confident of winning the Fields Medal,
At that time, Qin Ke smiled and said: "Whether I win the prize is not up to me, but to the judges. But I will go all out. Winning the top prize in the international mathematics community is my goal."
Ning Qingyun’s answer was simpler: “I believe the IMU jury will make a fair judgment.”
Taking into account safety factors, Chen Ming and Chen Lan blocked the reporters after they were interviewed for ten minutes, and Zheng Haiqiao led them out of the back door.
Reporters can only interview teachers and students at ETH Zurich.
Theodore Armisitia, professor of the Department of Mathematics at ETH Zurich, said frankly: "Both of them are very good mathematicians, especially Professor Qin Ke. His quick thinking and profound mathematical knowledge are the best in my opinion."
He is the most amazing genius mathematician who has ever lived. I once communicated with him for more than ten minutes at a dinner party. You can't understand how I felt at that time. It was like I was facing an encyclopedia of mathematics. All my topics were covered by him.
They can all pick it up, and they have studied it more deeply than me. I even think that he has no shortcomings in mathematics. Yes, I think of him so highly."
Student Steele Poole said: "Professor Qin Ke's report was very exciting, and this time he mainly talked about the ideas, not the detailed proof process.
)" Most of them can understand it. I never thought that I actually understand how to prove the Riemann Hypothesis. My God, he is already the most powerful god of mathematics in my heart."
This chapter is not over yet, please click on the next page to continue reading! Soon, the media in Zurich had news headlines:
"The most amazing genius mathematician? The god of encyclopedic mathematics? Qin Ke successfully convinced the teachers and students of ETH Zurich!"
"From the theme of this report, we can see Qin Ke's ambition. He already has the idea of completing the great goal of unifying mathematics!"
"Qin Ke's mathematical style sweeps across Zurich, is there little doubt about the Fields Medal?"
"A new god of mathematics is about to be born? Let's wait and see the International Congress of Mathematicians in a week!"
…
Amid the commotion in Zurich, Qin Ke and Ning Qingyun did not leave Switzerland directly for Berlin, but arrived in Basel first.
Basel is the third largest city in Switzerland, and it is also a transportation hub connecting Germany, Germany, and Switzerland. It is not a tourist city with many attractions. Qin Ke and his wife chose to come here because they wanted to take a train from here to
In Berlin, I want to experience the most famous railway scenery in Europe. Secondly, I want to stay here for a day and visit the memorial hall of the former residence of Euler, the god of mathematics.
Leonhard Euler is the greatest mathematician in the history of mathematics. His contribution to mathematics is rarely seen in history, and he was proficient in almost every sub-subject of mathematics at that time. To this day, we can still see it in most fields of mathematics.
Equations, theorems, and formulas named after Euler, such as Euler's lines in elementary geometry, Euler's transformation formulas in solid analytic geometry, Euler's functions in number theory, Euler's theorem for polyhedra, Euler's formula for complex functions, variables
Euler's equation of division method, etc.
For people like Qin Ke who have loved mathematics since childhood, Euler is more of an idol than an idol.
Even if he now pursues the mathematical level of "God of Mathematics" he wants to achieve, the historical figures he targets are Euler, Gauss, Riemann, etc.
What Euler is most admired for is his academic attitude, seriousness, concentration, and diligence. As a mathematician, Euler is almost impeccable. In his seventy-six years of life, he wrote countless papers and books. Switzerland
The "Complete Works of Euler" organized by the Natural Science Foundation has eighty-four volumes, each volume is more than 500 pages thick. And this is only a part of it, because a large part of the manuscripts left by Euler were burned due to fire.
.
What is most incredible is that this was a miraculous achievement accomplished when Euler was suffering from worsening vision and even blindness since he was in middle age.
Therefore, even Gauss, another god of mathematics, highly praised Euler and publicly said: "Studying Euler's works is always the best way to understand mathematics."
In addition, Euler was also a patriot. Even though he moved to another country in the second half of his life and was reused by important figures including Tsar Catlin I and Peter the Great of Prussia, and became a popular mathematician, he never changed his nationality.
He was also extremely devoted to love. He only had one wife in his life, and never had any lovers or romantic partners. You must know that he was a brilliant master of mathematics during his time in Xiong Kingdom and De Kingdom, and was deeply loved by students.
As the French mathematician Pierre-Simon Laplace said: "Read Euler, he is the mentor of all of us." The more you study Euler, the more you find that whether it is academic
With his attitude, attitude towards life, and attitude towards fighting against suffering, Euler is a well-deserved idol.
Qin Ke and Ning Qingjun strolled through the Euler Memorial Hall and spent a whole day carefully reading his biography, looking at photos of his manuscripts, and reviewing the life of a great master of mathematics.
The feelings and emotions that come out.
In the evening, accompanied by Chen Ming, Chen Lan and others, the two reluctantly left the Euler Memorial Hall and boarded the train to Berlin.
While peeling an apple for Qin Ke, Ning Qingyun asked: "Qin Xiaoke, what do you think is the most powerful thing about Euler?"
Qin Ke blinked, looked at the girl's beautiful face, and said with a smile: "I know and love my wife, my children and grandchildren are full, and my family is happy. This is my role model and ideal life."
Ning Qingyun's little face suddenly turned red, especially when Chen Ming and Chen Lan were still sitting on the left and right next to Qin Ke and her respectively. How could they not be shameless when saying such love words in front of outsiders?
The girl who has always been very young feels shy?
She lowered her gaze and stopped talking to Qin Ke.
Qin Ke smiled and turned to Chen Ming to talk: "Brother Ming, you also accompanied us to visit the Euler Memorial Hall. How did you feel?"
Chen Ming always talks little. If you don't talk to him, he can go a whole day without saying a word.
However, after these years of getting along, he and Qin Ke have become very familiar with each other, so he rarely said a longer sentence: "Don't embarrass me, a high school graduate. I want to yawn when I read that big pile of words."
, all I know is that he is one of the greatest mathematicians in history..."
Chen Ming paused and continued: "I hope you can surpass him one day."
Qin Ke couldn't help but laugh: "Brother Ming, you think too highly of me, don't you? Do I want to give you an autograph in advance? Maybe I can sell it for a sky-high price in the future."
Chen Ming actually took out a small notebook and pen and handed them to Qin Ke: "You said so."
Qin Ke rubbed his nose: "Brother Ming, I was just kidding."
Chen Ming still placed the small book in front of Qin Ke.
Qin Ke had no choice but to sign his name. This time he used an artistic font, which was different from the previous signatures in block letters. It was a unique signature.
Chen Ming was used to seeing his signature, and his eyes lit up when he saw this unique signature. Knowing that Qin Ke was giving him special treatment, his eyes couldn't help but shine with gratitude.
Qin Ke smiled when he saw this. After signing, he simply handed it to Ning Qingyun and said with a smile: "Brother Ming, if you want to collect it, add your signature. It may be more valuable."
Ning Qingyun rolled his eyes at him angrily, took the notebook and pen, and signed his name in a delicate and beautiful font next to the word "Qin Ke" with flying phoenixes.
Chen Lan, who was sitting next to her, quickly took out a small book and handed it over: "I want it too."
"Brother Ming's share is enough, right? You two can share one share?" Qin Ke said and quietly pushed Chen Ming.
In the past few years, Chen Ming and Chen Lan have been partners with Qin Ke and Ning Qingyun for a long time. It would be a lie to say that he has no feelings, but his personality is introverted and dull. At this time, Qin Ke's assist immediately made his somewhat dark appearance
His face turned red, and he opened his mouth uncomfortably, but not a single word came out.
Chen Lan glanced at Chen Ming, who had twinkling eyes, then placed the notebook in front of Ning Qingyun and repeated: "I want it too."
"Okay, Sister Lan, I'll sign it for you first." Qin Ke took it and wrote on it: "To Chen Ming, Chen Lan, Qin Ke, on the 30th of the month." Then he handed it to Ning Qing.
Jun.
Ning Qingyun pursed her lips and chuckled, then wrote the same words and signed her name.
