Chapter 126 Hey, Fellow Daoist, You Made a Mistake
If Qin Luo's first impression of university is pastoral, then his second impression is academic.
In the university, there is a special lecture hall with countless blackboards hanging in it, and the blackboards prove world-class problems one by one.
Goldbach's conjecture, Riemann's conjecture, Kadotani's conjecture...
However, before he was halfway through the shopping, he was attracted by a blackboard.
"Proof of Twin Primes, by Tesla Cage."
"..."
Qin Luo:? ? ?
Be good, it can't be such a coincidence.
Seeing the proof on the blackboard and the familiar name, Qin Luo was shocked.
Have twin primes been proven?The scroll he got was just for fun?
This is even more exciting than betting on stones.
One knife is poor, two knife is rich, three knife goes to sell underwear.
Qin Luo now has the idea of selling underwear.
Unable to hold back the curiosity in his heart, Qin Luo left the team and walked slowly towards the blackboard.
Just when Qin Luo walked to the blackboard and was about to do some research, a young man came over.
He was wearing a black suit, wearing a pair of gold-rimmed glasses, his hair was meticulously done, and he had a spring-like smile on his face.
Gives a sense of indescribable intimacy.
However, Qin Luo didn't like him very much.
The reason is simple, he has a three-point resemblance to the blond man Tesla, and he is also very good-looking.
"Student, are you also interested in twin prime numbers?" He asked with a smile.
"Probably." Qin Luo nodded, and returned his gaze to the blackboard.
"Tesla Cage, a student at the University of Birmingham, a doctorate degree, your name?" The young man stretched out his hand and smiled.
Sure enough, birds of a feather flock together and people are divided into groups, and good-looking people are all fucking relatives.
Qin Luo actually didn't want to talk to him, but as a gentleman, he still reached out and shook his hand: "Qin Luo, a student at Beishan No. [-] Middle School."
"Beishan No. [-] Middle School? Is there such a university in the world?"
"Actually high school."
"..." Cage opened his mouth, feeling speechless.
Originally, he thought he had met a like-minded fellow Taoist, but this fellow Taoist was just a high school student.
Heh—he probably doesn't even know what twin prime numbers are.
The smile on the young man's face was still bright, but a hint of disdain flashed imperceptibly in his eyes: "Come to participate in the imo competition?"
"Yes."
"Nice to meet you."
"Me too..." Qin Luo nodded with a "smile", and then turned his gaze to the blackboard.
It is different from the disintegration process that Qin Luo imagined.
He used an argument method called "reverse mathematics" to prove twin prime numbers.
A holistic approach that starts with the conclusions and then proceeds from the conclusions needs to be envisioned.
This man named Tesla Cage preconceived the existence of twin prime numbers.
Then on this basis step by step reverse deduction, thus proving that the pair of twin prime numbers is infinite.
Seeing this, Qin Luo smiled disdainfully. He finally knew why the conclusion made by the other party only appeared on the blackboard instead of the world-renowned "Journal of Mathematics".
Because he made a fatal mistake, even though his process was simple, his logic was clear, and his conclusion was correct, he could not prove twin primes after all!
The twin primes were originally a conjecture, and what he was waiting for was a proof. There is no reason to presuppose that the twin primes are infinite, and then prove them step by step.
