When he heard the name of the journal, Zhou Wu was stunned for a moment. He immediately thought of the famous mathematics annual journal AMS, but soon he remembered that there was also a mathematics journal in China, and naturally thought it was the latter.
But the Mathematics Annual of China is also a core journal. How difficult it is to get into a core journal. He couldn't help but become more curious. What kind of paper did Lin Xiao write that he actually wanted to get into a core journal?
So he said: "Then send him my prestige and ask him to add me. I will talk to him when I have time tomorrow."
"Okay, thank you very much."
"It's okay."
After Liu Qiuwen hung up the phone, she sent Zhou Wu's authority and phone number to Lin Xiao. However, Lin Xiao had already gone to bed, so she had to wait until the next day.
The night passed quickly.
The next day, Lin Xiao still did not go to school.
He planned to go back tomorrow and take another day off today, of course, also to solve the paper issues.
Xu Hongbing read the English version of the paper for him overnight and quickly pointed out the translation problems in some parts, such as inaccurate wording and formatting issues. Different journals have different paper format requirements.
Different.
Of course, there weren't many problems. After he helped check it, there was basically no problem.
"Okay, overall it should be done. Has Beijing University contacted you?"
In terms of prestige, Xu Hongbing sent a message to Lin Xiao.
Lin Xiao replied: "Thank you, teacher. I contacted you yesterday and added Professor Zhou Wu from the School of Mathematics at Beijing University this morning."
Xu Hongbing: "Zhou Wu, that shouldn't be a big problem, this person is pretty good."
Just at this time, Lin Xiao received the news that the friend application was approved, and it was none other than Professor Zhou Wu.
"Teacher Xu, Professor Zhou Wu applied through my friends"
"Well, just send us both the Chinese version and the English version."
"OK."
Lin Xiao then switched to the dialog box with Professor Zhou Wu, and a message was also sent from the other side.
"Is this classmate Lin Xiao?"
"Hello, Professor Zhou, it's me."
"Well, yesterday Mr. Liu from the admissions office said you wrote a math paper, right?"
"Yes, I have already written it, and I hope you can help me read it again. When the time comes to publish it, I also hope that Peking University can help the journal reduce the review queue time."
"Haha, don't worry about this. I heard that you want to publish the Annual Journal of Mathematics? The Annual Journal of Mathematics is a core journal and has relatively high quality requirements for papers."
No matter what Zhou Wu thinks, he doesn't think Lin Xiao can publish in core journals. If you have studied in university for two or three years, felt the academic atmosphere, and already have a certain foundation, it is not impossible. There are some geniuses.
It's really possible, but if you have a student who hasn't graduated from high school yet, and usually spends so much time studying for the college entrance examination, it would be good if he could read a few college mathematics books, and what other creative achievements can he make?
?
What a joke!
However, Zhou Wu thought about various situations that Lin Xiao might say next, such as "I want to try", "I am confident", "I will think about it", etc., but what he never expected was that Lin Xiao would
explain:
"Is it a core journal? Isn't the Annual Journal of Mathematics a journal in SCI Area 1? Is there a difference between the two?"
Zhou Wu:……
I'm so stupid, where did you get this great guy from?
The mathematical annual journal of sci area one?
Isn’t it just AMS, "ANNALS-OF-MATHEMATICS"?
Are all high school students today so brave?
Or is it because his excellent grades gave him inflated self-confidence?
Zhou Wu said that even after using this mobile phone, he still did not believe that the paper written by Lin Xiao could be published in AMS. He himself had never published a journal in the four major journals.
Today's young people are still too impetuous and need to guard against arrogance and impatience.
Of course, he did not directly express his disbelief, but said directly: "You can send me the paper now. Is there an English version? You should know that AMS requires an English version, right?"
"I know. Professor Xu Hongbing from East China Normal University, whom I know, has already read it for me. Basically, I can publish it directly. Publishing the Annual Journal of Mathematics was also recommended by Professor Xu."
See the name Lin Xiao mentioned, Xu Hongbing from East China Normal University?
He had heard of this name before, probably when he attended some mathematics conference before.
But isn’t this nonsense?
As a professor, can you recommend a student who has not graduated from high school to publish the annual mathematics journal AMS?
This is obviously misleading!
Thinking that Lin Xiao would be a student of his own school from now on, and that would be considered his future disciple, he couldn't help feeling a little disgusted with Xu Hongbing.
You must talk to that person later.
At this time, Lin Xiao sent the document.
"Thesis in Chinese.pdf (click to download)"
"Thesis in English.pdf (click to download)"
Zhou Wu no longer considered troubling Xu Hongbing for the time being. After downloading Lin Xiao's paper, he opened the Chinese version of the paper.
Next, the huge title in size 2 font almost blinded him.
Proof of the existence of infinitely many prime numbers for the Fibonacci Sequence?!
Proof that there are infinitely many prime numbers in the Fibonacci sequence!
Zhou Wu was almost startled when he saw this title. For a moment, he seemed to recall that a civilian scientist sneaked into the school, and then ran into his office to tell him that he had proved Goldbach's conjecture.
But thinking that the other person would be his disciple in the future, he still sighed.
Alas, let's take a look. If you don't point out where the other party is wrong, they probably won't give up.
So, he started to read.
"Well, the front is pretty good. Hey, this idea is quite good. It connects the prime number theorem and characteristic polynomials..."
"Then……"
As he watched, Zhou Wu, who originally planned to find fault, gradually frowned - he liked to frown when he was thinking.
The more he read, the more he read, and the more he read, the more he realized that this number theory paper written by a high school student had an incredible thinking pattern hidden in it.
He found……
I can't find any mistakes at all.
Even later, some of the knowledge points used by Lin Xiao turned out to be knowledge points that he could not remember. After all, Lin Xiao wrote about number theory, which was different from the direction he was engaged in, and number theory was also a relatively troublesome one.
field.
So he took out a pen and paper and started calculating.
In this way, time passed slowly.
Lin Xiao didn't rush to ask. After all, it was more than 20 pages, and it would probably take a while to read it.
About thirty minutes passed before Zhou Wu finally replied.
"Classmate Lin Xiao, please wait a moment. I need to continue my research. I am not engaged in number theory, so I need to consult other professors for some of your steps. I wonder if you would mind."
