Hou Qiang stood up, looked at the manuscript in her hand, and declared:
,
"There are two candidates for the Mathematics Award this year. The first one is Chen Jingrun, a student from Imperial College London. He is 18 years old this year. Chen Jingrun proposed the concept of bounded functions in advanced mathematics."
"The other is Zhang Kesheng, a senior professor of mathematics from Imperial College London, who is seventy-six years old this year. Zhang Kesheng's main contribution to mathematics is his detailed explanation of the concept of indefinite integrals in calculus,"
Seeing that many people in the field were one person and two people tall, they couldn't understand it at all. Hou Qiang simply explained a few words:
"A bounded function is to assume that f(x) is a function on the interval E. If for any x belonging to E, there are constants m and M such that m≤f(x)≤M, then f(x) is said to be the interval E Bounded function on. Where m is called the lower bound of f(x) on the interval E, and M is called the upper bound of f(x) on the interval E.
Bounded functions are not necessarily continuous. According to the definition, there is an upper (lower) bound on D, which means that the value range (D) is a set of numbers with an upper (lower) bound. As x gets closer to -1 or 1, the value of the function becomes larger and larger..."
"Bounded functions are extremely important for today's advanced mathematics. They are used to have a deeper understanding of the purpose of functions. This concept proposed by Mr. Chen Jingrun is very novel and very important."
I looked at the people below who were dumbfounded, their minds were full of confusion, and they were simply listening to heavenly scriptures.
Hou Qiang smiled. She also understood that advanced mathematics is something that ordinary people really have no way to understand.
Since the emergence of advanced mathematics, people who study advanced mathematics have had their own circles. It was a high-IQ club. This kind of IQ does not mean that anyone is stupid.
Rather, it refers to logical IQ.
Logical thinking ability, this is the talent that advanced mathematics people must have. In fact, very few people have this kind of talent for logical thinking. It is precisely because of this that it is impossible for mathematicians to make up for their talent through hard work.
No talent, just no talent. If you have talent, you are a genius. You have no place to reason.
Only a small number of people in the field were thoughtful, such as Li Zhen. Although Li Zhen's current achievements in the world of advanced mathematics have long been pushed aside by Hou Qiang, Li Zhen also has two skills.
Nodding frequently, he could hear some clues. But I dare not express my opinion.
When you reach Li Zhen's status, speaking less and listening more is the last word. Because... Never use your own interests and hobbies to challenge other people's jobs.
Li Zhen just sowed the seeds of Gao Shu in this soil, and now they have taken root and sprouted. This is enough.
Therefore, no one asked Li Zhen for his opinion. Hou Qiang spoke attentively.
After talking about bounded functions, she found that many people didn't understand them at all, so she stopped wasting too much time giving examples and elaborated on them. Then the indefinite integral of calculus was introduced.
Before the introduction, Hou Qiang briefly introduced calculus and the relationship between calculus and functions. Although it is said from the shallower to the deeper, it still makes people feel that one head is bigger than the other.
But this is considered popular.
Hou Qiang still had to say.
Because outside broadcasts spread throughout Laoshan County, how many mathematicians are there in Laoshan County now? who knows.
If we can popularize it more at this time, we will have more opportunities to contribute to the mathematics community and create more geniuses to break through this bottleneck. Why not do it
“In calculus, the indefinite integral, or primitive function, and antiderivative of a function f is a function F whose derivative is equal to f, that is, F ′ = f.
The relationship between indefinite and definite integrals is determined by the fundamental theorem of calculus. where F is the indefinite integral of f. This is calculus. "
"If you want to understand it and verify the concept of indefinite integral proposed by Mr. Zhang Kesheng, you need to know first..."
Outside the Kyushu Academy of Sciences, everything was quiet and silent.
Almost 70% of the people had blank faces, looking at the loudspeakers everywhere in a daze, dazed for a while, then shook their confused heads and continued to daze.
"Ai, what do you mean?"
"I don't know... I'm confused. What's F? What's the point and no points? Do you want to accumulate points or not?"
"Oh, I don't understand, I don't understand at all."
"Is this mathematics? It's different from what I learned before."
"Why not arithmetic? Is this mathematics? Why doesn't a single number appear? Addition, subtraction, multiplication and division are not used at all."
"I'm so worried. I'm sure this is mathematics, but why is it different from what I know?"
“…”
Some people chatted with each other with confused faces.
In the crowd, a young man yelled: "Why don't you make any noise?"
A loud roar broke out in the quiet atmosphere, startling everyone, and even the security guards kept looking sideways.
Everyone turned their heads and saw a young man squatting on the ground, holding a pen and a notebook in his hand. He frowned and listened to the brisk speech on the radio, and kept writing in the notebook with an anxious look on his face.
Some people were surprised, hey, someone can understand.
Looking back, many people in the crowd were actually taking out pens and papers attentively, listening and taking notes.
Someone asked: "Do you... understand? What do you mean?"
The young man exploded: "Can you please stop making noise? Listen carefully. Shhh... "
The man didn't get angry, he quickly lowered his voice and watched quietly as they continued to record.
Many people are sighing, this is really a high IQ club. Therefore, these people who study advanced mathematics have a strong sense of happiness. Because there is a saying that people with high IQ can make themselves happy. People with high emotional intelligence can make those around them happy. People with low IQ and low EQ will not make others happy while they themselves are unhappy.
Obviously, these people with high numbers are the first type of people. They... are able to make themselves feel extremely happy in their own circle. It is a kind of happiness that comes from IQ crushing. Ordinary people simply cannot imagine how great that kind of happiness is.
After Hou Qiang finished speaking, he made some comments. But the reviews are all about snake oil, and they don’t easily express their opinions on which one is more powerful. Just let everyone choose.
Jia Liping said: "Now, please invite the guests to start voting."
The guests looked at each other, wondering who was more powerful. This thing is hard to explain.
In fact, high mathematics is something that is difficult to explain. In other departments, one can tell at a glance whether someone is good or not and whether they have a bright future. But mathematics itself is a very abstract concept.
Just like abstract oil painting. If you take the paintings of world-class masters and ask a normal person, everyone will think, isn't this just a child's graffiti
But if you tell him, it was painted by a world-class master. He was able to immediately analyze the strength from the abstract, well, what kind of school it was inside, and what kind of meaning it had.
There are many people in this world who pretend to understand when they don’t understand. Of course, there are many of these guests.
Who is more powerful? I don't know where to go. Because even Hou Qiang couldn't tell who was more powerful.
Obviously, if it compares to personal charm, it must be Chen Jingrun. He is only eighteen years old and has unlimited potential. But now we are not comparing people, we are just comparing knowledge...
Say so. But now everyone knows it, because they simply don’t understand the difference between the two. Hou Qiang also commented on the snake oil, and did not indicate who she was leaning toward in her words. Then everyone is blindly selected.
For young people or for old people.
This is a problem.
