Chapter 95 Discussion
If it weren't for the fact that he was at Princeton University, the pope would have been dead for several days when he received the message.He should go to the Pope's funeral.Now Mr. Grothendieck's funeral is over, so he inherited the will of this gentleman, let him bring mathematics into a new world.
Zhuang Weiran took a deep breath and continued to calculate.This paper should be regarded as a memorial to Mr. Grothendieck.Beside the table, Grothendieck's unpublished academic achievements and manuscripts are quietly placed.
The sound of "rustling" kept ringing, and when Lin Sen came to knock on the door, he was already used to Zhuang Weiran shutting himself in the room.
"Knock knock..." Lin Sen knocked on the door, "Professor Zhuang, it's already twelve o'clock."
Putting down the pen in his hand, Zhuang Weiran stood up and opened the door, "I see." He nodded slightly, and went to the kitchen to finish cooking. Pierce ate deliciously.Pierce, who didn't know how to use chopsticks, learned to use chopsticks.
"Lin Sen." Zhuang Weiran raised his voice. After eating, Lin Sen who was washing the dishes looked up at Zhuang Weiran, "What's wrong?"
"I may return to China earlier than you." Zhuang Weiran said with a smile, "I have nothing to do here. After finishing my research, I will leave school. It will be around the middle of the month. You should wait until Christmas." Let's go home."
"Yes." Lin Sen nodded, "But it's not necessarily true. If I don't make something, I might not leave Princeton."
"I want to make something out of the subject before I talk about it."
"That's not bad." Zhuang Weiran expressed his understanding of Lin Sen, "Do a good job on the subject, and there is still time to return to China next year."
"Yes." Lin Sen continued, "I have only stayed at Princeton University for so many years. As the world's mathematics center, I really should study something hard."
"I'm not like you. I think you can't learn much at Princeton University. You usually stay at home and don't go out. Even after you return to China this time, it's okay not to come back."
"I have to finish the BSD conjecture." Zhuang Weiran said softly, "Why don't I want $100 million?"
Zhuang Weiran shook his head, "Otherwise, the investment is not enough."
"Okay." After a relaxed and pleasant chat, everyone began to continue to study the topic.Generally, it is impossible for Lin Sen or Pierce to ask Zhuang Weiran about things that can be made by themselves.
At their level, if they can solve it by themselves, it is absolutely impossible to bother Zhuang Weiran.

In the weather of December, the air seems to be able to freeze.Just arrived at the Institute for Advanced Study in Princeton, entered the office, Zhuang Weiran rubbed his hands.Deligne next to him said with a smile, "Is it cold? Zhuang."
"It's really cold." Zhuang Weiran shook his head, "This damn weather." He muttered and cursed the weather, "It really makes people feel bad."
"Coffee to warm you up? Or a whiskey?" Langlands stood at the table, wearing a small suit, his overcoat on a hanger.After arriving at the office, it was much warmer.
"Congratulations, Zhuang, for becoming a professor at the Institute for Advanced Study in Princeton." Langlands raised his glass in his hand, "I heard that you have made new progress in Abelfield?"
"Indeed." After warming up, Zhuang Weiran also took off his coat, and he was wearing a casual outfit underneath.It was snowing outside, sitting on a chair, "Professors want to talk about algebra and geometry today?"
"Zhuang, you know, that gentleman just passed away not long ago." Langlands sighed, "He still has a lot of academic achievements that have not been unraveled, and his thoughts are immortal."
Zhuang Weiran held the coffee sent by the secretary, "Are you here to pay tribute to Mr. Pope today?"
"Of course not." Deligne shook his head slightly, "By the way, have you read Schultz's paper?"
"Look, about the application of the Langlands program to seemingly complete geometry." Zhuang Weiran paused, "It's perfect. I think he wants to convert arithmetic algebraic geometry to P-adic domain."
"As for the latter, I guess, I should want to be some classmates of the Langlands program, and maybe develop a new cohomology theory." After finishing speaking, he put down the coffee cup.He looked at several top professors in the world, "Did you invite me here just to talk about this question?"
"Mr. Schultz's thesis is very wonderful, there is no doubt about it. But it is not perfect yet, he still needs to keep improving." He raised his voice, "In this regard, I really can't give him any advice. "
"As you know, in the field of arithmetic algebraic geometry, I have never studied in depth like him." With a sigh, Zhuang Weiran lay comfortably on the chair, "Professors, I will return to China in a few days. .”
"Huh?" Deligne put down the coffee cup in his hand, "So early? I remember it's still some time before Christmas, why don't you stay for Christmas?"
"No." Zhuang Weiran shook his head, "The traditional festival in Huaguo is not Christmas."
"Where's your paper?" Langlands next to him asked, "I heard that you're going to publish a paper on Abelian fields in December, but I don't seem to have seen this paper yet."
"If the professors didn't ask me to come to Princeton University today, maybe tomorrow or the day after tomorrow, you will be able to see this paper. However, I have already organized this paper and will upload it to arXiv after a while."
"I'm looking forward to it." Langlands took a sip of his wine, "I asked you out today, and I really want to discuss some geometry and algebra issues with you."
"You also know that that gentleman's mind has not been completely unraveled. We still have too many things we don't understand. If we want to unravel Mr. Grothendieck's mind, it may take a long time."
"Unfortunately, neither this gentleman's writings nor his manuscripts have been handed down to the world. But with those fragments, his thoughts have not been fully unraveled." Langlands said with a sigh, "Speaking of which, I Here are some of Mr.'s manuscripts."
Deligne pondered, "In fact, the manuscript of that gentleman may still exist in this world and has not been destroyed. But the remains of the gentleman are very simple, and there is nothing left."
Zhuang Weiran didn't speak. Mr. Grothendieck's manuscripts were all in his hands, but he also said that he hoped that Zhuang Weiran would not show it to others.In other words, he may only be able to study this gentleman's thoughts by himself now.Even after such a long period of time, Zhuang Weiran was still shocked by Grothendieck's thoughts.
For him, there are still many things that he has not been able to learn.
"Zhuang?" Wei Teng pushed the door open. As a professor of the Princeton Institute for Advanced Study and the School of Physics, Wei Teng also comes to the Princeton Institute for Advanced Study from time to time.Today happened to be his day at the Institute for Advanced Study.Zhuang Weiran was promoted to professor a few days ago, and he hadn't had time to congratulate Zhuang Weiran.Because Zhuang Weiran was working on a project, he never showed up.
This was probably the most embarrassing ceremony for conferring the title of professor at the Institute for Advanced Study in Princeton. Zhuang Weiran completely forgot about it.
It was dragged out of the house by Richard Feufman halfway, and when he came to the Institute for Advanced Study in Princeton, the ceremony was almost over.As a result, Zhuang Weiran came and went in a hurry.After getting the letter of appointment, he left directly, waving his hand without taking away a cloud.Probably the professors at Princeton University and the Institute for Advanced Study are also used to Zhuang Weiran's style.When he is researching a certain topic, he often makes such a move.It has already made them feel familiar with it, but they are just very emotional that there are still such old-fashioned people.Apart from studying the topic, it seems that I don't know how to enjoy it.
Zhuang Weiran just doesn't have a particularly strong desire for material enjoyment. His interest in subjects is far greater than his desire for enjoyment.
"Professor Wei Teng." Zhuang Weiran bowed slightly, and Wei Teng closed the door smoothly, "When I passed by, I heard your talking."
"How about Lin?" Professor Witten asked while taking off his coat, "I remember Lin told me before that he hasn't been able to do the project you gave him yet."
"Maybe it's more difficult." Zhuang Weiran thought for a while, "But I think that the subject I gave him can allow him to get in touch with gauge field theory at a deeper level. When he was in Huaguo, he always did some mathematics. Related work, I haven’t touched gauge field theory.”
After pouring a glass of wine, Wei Teng took a sip from the glass, "I just heard that you seem to be returning to China early?"
"I need to rest for a while." Zhuang Weiran said, "I should upload my thesis to arXiv soon, and then I will return to China. Lin, maybe I won't go back."
"I'm curious." Langlands stared at the wine glass, "What is the relationship between Lin and Zhuang?"
"Who can tell me?"
"Cousins." Zhuang Weiran didn't shy away from this point, and he wouldn't say it when no one asked him.If someone asks, he will not shy away.
"Oh?" Professor Wei Teng frowned slightly, "Is Lin your brother?"
"That's right." Zhuang Weiran nodded, "But he can because he is good enough."
"It's really excellent." The corners of Professor Weiteng's mouth turned up slightly, "I've seen him do your subject, it's great, he's an excellent student."
"I even think that maybe he will be a top theoretical physicist in the future. I just didn't expect that he and Zhuang are brothers. Speaking of which, I'm not surprised why Lin is so good at mathematics and physics. Talent." Wei Teng sat on the chair, "Maybe this is heredity?"
"Professors, why don't we discuss the issues of algebra and geometry?" Zhuang Weiran suggested, he finally came out once, besides, there are many mathematicians sitting here, so why don't we discuss the issues of algebra and geometry at this time? The problem is really unreasonable.
"Maybe, we can also discuss issues about topology." Professor Weiteng added, "I knew that even if we were chatting, Zhuang would always involve academics."
