Compared with the academic "headhunting firm" Princeton Institute for Advanced Study, Columbia University is still not good at recruiting people. Even if it offered him the position of chairman of the mathematics department as a condition, it would probably be in vain.
Lu Zhou was also stunned by this sudden question.
But why is Faltings, a big shot in the world of algebraic geometry, here to join in the fun...
Lu Zhou was also stunned by this sudden question.
As soon as the report meeting ended, Lu Zhou received the review list from the "Annals of Mathematics".
Except for the ABC conjecture that no one understands yet, the solution to Goldbach's conjecture will undoubtedly be listed as one of the most important academic achievements after the Poincaré conjecture, and this achievement comes from the most difficult to achieve results. The field of analytic number theory.
Some people may think that the title of professor is nothing.
"The offer of employment will be sent to you together with your degree certificate the day after tomorrow. Of course, the choice is up to you whether to accept the offer of employment."
"...What kind of teaching position is it?"
Because the "Annals of Mathematics" is jointly run by Princeton University and the Institute for Advanced Study, its significance to Lu Zhou is probably similar to a "school magazine" open to the outside world, so this list did not appear in his mailbox, but the editor-in-chief Evans personally delivered it to Lu Zhou.
Lu Zhou was also stunned by this sudden question.
In fact, what Evans said is still not accurate enough.
In the evening, the banquet at the Princeton Hotel was nominally to provide an opportunity for scholars who had finally met to meet and communicate, but now it seems that the banquet has completely turned into a ceremony for Lu Zhou at the Institute for Advanced Study in Princeton. Celebration banquet held.
But why is Faltings, a big shot in the world of algebraic geometry, here to join in the fun...
"... Your paper will be reviewed openly, fairly and independently by six people including Faltings, Helfgott, and Ivanets. Enjoy the evening banquet. Starting tomorrow, you will be busy." Vince said with a smile.
"... Columbia University has many outstanding Chinese mathematicians, such as Zhang Wei and Zhang Taowu. They are all outstanding scholars. You can communicate with many outstanding Chinese students here, and our attitude towards Chinese international students and professors, It is definitely the most open in the United States, especially for scholars with potential or ability. As long as you are willing to come, we can directly hire you as a full professor."
"Nervous, and excited... So I need a rest now, very, very much. You can go interview my supervisor, Professor Deligne. He has provided me a lot of help, and he knows my research very well... "
Faltins! Ivan Nitz!

"Lu Zhou."

Professor Deligne said in a matter-of-fact voice.
The people who were chatting nearby stopped talking and turned their curious eyes here, waiting for him to continue talking.
It is understandable that Helfgott would appear on the list. After all, he also studied Goldbach's conjecture, and his understanding of the circle method can be said to be the best today, just like Chen Jingrun's understanding of the great sieve method.
“Similarly, after discussion and decision at the Institute for Advanced Study, in view of the series of major breakthroughs you have made in the field of prime numbers, the Institute for Advanced Study solemnly and sincerely extends an invitation to you to serve as a faculty member at the Princeton Institute. "
After a while, he took a deep breath.
"Lu Zhou, nice to meet you." Lu Zhou smiled and nodded, shaking hands with him politely.

As long as you are willing to come, we can directly hire you as a full professor."
Although he did use algebraic geometry methods to solve many problems in number theory.
However, Professor Deligne did not finish his words, and it was obvious that he planned to say something else.
Lu Zhou: "Of course, China is my motherland, and I will eventually go back. But at the same time, I also like the pure academic environment of Princeton. It is a good place for academic exchanges. If Princeton is willing to give me a teaching position, I will Of course I’m happy to accept it.”
Although he quietly bypassed the crowd and walked to the long table with food and champagne, it was obvious that others would not let go of the opportunity to talk to him so easily.
Although he did use algebraic geometry methods to solve many problems in number theory.
In response to those curious glances, Deligne stared at Lu Zhou and said solemnly.
Lu Zhou smiled awkwardly and was about to reply with "I will seriously consider your suggestion" when Professor Deligne's voice came from the side.
After putting away the list, Lu Zhou coughed lightly: "... I hope the big guys will be merciful."
The people who were chatting nearby stopped talking and turned their curious eyes here, waiting for him to continue talking.
But this is the Institute for Advanced Study in Princeton, the center of the world’s mathematics community after World War II!
At this point, Professor Morgan, who was talking non-stop while holding champagne, was no longer hiding anything.
Being irritated by the tough questions thrown at them one after another by these reporters, Lu Zhou couldn't resist, so he resorted to his usual tricks to throw the blame away.
"Lu Zhou, nice to meet you." Lu Zhou smiled and nodded, shaking hands with him politely.
"Be merciful? Impossible. This is one of the crown jewels of analytic number theory," Evans laughed and patted Lu Zhou's arm. "Professor Sanak from the Institute for Advanced Study is quite optimistic about your paper. So, you can be more confident in yourself. I’m optimistic about you, come on!”
"Hello, Mr. Lu Zhou, I am a reporter from the Daily Mail. What do you think of your report?"
But getting a doctorate in just three months will undoubtedly be written into the history of Princeton, and even go down in history.
"...What kind of teaching position is it?"
Some people may think that the title of professor is nothing.
The peer review of a major conjecture often does not strictly implement the double-blind principle as for general journal submissions, because there are only so many people engaged in this field, and problems discovered during the review period still require Lu Zhou to make decisions. explain.
Morgan stopped talking, just shrugged and made a helpless expression.
Lu Zhou naturally knew who Professor Sarnak Evans was talking about. There were many professors named Sarnak at Princeton, but only one was famous, and that was Peter Sarnak, the editorial board member of the Annals of Mathematics. Winner of the 2014 Wolf Prize.
Being irritated by the tough questions thrown at them one after another by these reporters, Lu Zhou couldn't resist, so he resorted to his usual tricks to throw the blame away.

"Nervous, and excited... So I need a rest now, very, very much. You can go interview my supervisor, Professor Deligne. He has provided me a lot of help, and he knows my research very well... "
Lu Zhou had just added a piece of steak to his dinner plate when he saw a middle-aged man in a suit walking over with a bottle of champagne.
Although not as famous as Faltins and Ivanets, his authority in the field of number theory is unquestionable.
But this is the Institute for Advanced Study in Princeton, the center of the world’s mathematics community after World War II!
As Professor Deligne finished speaking, applause erupted from the surroundings.
"Hello, Mr. Lu Zhou, I am a reporter from the Daily Mail. What do you think of your report?"
As soon as he left Lecture Hall No. 1 of the Institute for Advanced Study, the reporters who had been lying in wait for a long time caught up with him.
Jealousy drives hostages apart...
Morgan stopped talking, just shrugged and made a helpless expression.
However, due to various reasons such as avoiding suspicion, there is only one researcher from the Institute for Advanced Study in Princeton on this review list, but it is not Peter Sarnaik. On the other hand, researchers from the Ecole Normale Supérieure in Paris occupied two places.
"Mr. Lu Zhou, I am a reporter from the Philadelphia Daily News. Will you teach at Princeton? Will you return to China?"

"... Deligne? Oh, my friend, I didn't expect you to be here too."
Morgan stopped talking, just shrugged and made a helpless expression.
Feeling the solemnity and solemnity in that gaze, Lu Zhou straightened his back subconsciously and put on a serious expression.

Not starting from tomorrow, Lu Zhou will already be busy after this report meeting.
Being irritated by the tough questions thrown at them one after another by these reporters, Lu Zhou couldn't resist, so he resorted to his usual tricks to throw the blame away.
At the end, Professor Deligne looked at Lu Zhou with a hint of approval.

Professor Deligne said in a matter-of-fact voice.

The big guys don't have any feelings about it, it's just a professor's title. As for people of the same age and those scholars who were not famous, they held their breath.

Some of them are Chinese international students, and some are members of the Princeton Ivy Club. They worshiped this great god from the bottom of their hearts.
Professor Deligne said in a matter-of-fact voice.
"Lu Zhou."
"...What kind of teaching position is it?"
Although a doctorate degree is not an honor, at most it is well-deserved.
In fact, what Evans said is still not accurate enough.
"Hello, I'm John Morgan, chairman of the mathematics department at Columbia University."
But getting a doctorate in just three months will undoubtedly be written into the history of Princeton, and even go down in history.
Jealousy drives hostages apart...
Faltins! Ivan Nitz!
Lu Zhou naturally knew who Professor Sarnak Evans was talking about. There were many professors named Sarnak at Princeton, but only one was famous, and that was Peter Sarnak, the editorial board member of the Annals of Mathematics. Winner of the 2014 Wolf Prize.
Except for the ABC conjecture that no one understands yet, the solution to Goldbach's conjecture will undoubtedly be listed as one of the most important academic achievements after the Poincaré conjecture, and this achievement comes from the most difficult to achieve results. The field of analytic number theory.

The field of analytic number theory.
In response to those curious glances, Deligne stared at Lu Zhou and said solemnly.
It is understandable that Helfgott would appear on the list. After all, he also studied Goldbach's conjecture, and his understanding of the circle method can be said to be the best today, just like Chen Jingrun's understanding of the great sieve method.
"...What kind of teaching position is it?"
However, Professor Deligne did not finish his words, and it was obvious that he planned to say something else.
"Hello, Mr. Lu Zhou, I am a reporter from the Daily Mail. What do you think of your report?"
Some of them are Chinese international students, and some are members of the Princeton Ivy Club. They worshiped this great god from the bottom of their hearts.
Feeling the solemnity and solemnity in that gaze, Lu Zhou straightened his back subconsciously and put on a serious expression.
"What else could it be but a full professor?"
Lu Zhou was also stunned by this sudden question.
"... Columbia University has many outstanding Chinese mathematicians, such as Zhang Wei and Zhang Taowu. They are all outstanding scholars. You can communicate with many outstanding Chinese students here, and our attitude towards Chinese international students and professors, It is definitely the most open in the United States, especially for scholars with potential or ability. As long as you are willing to come, we can directly hire you as a full professor."
Lu Zhou smiled awkwardly and was about to reply with "I will seriously consider your suggestion" when Professor Deligne's voice came from the side.
After waiting for the applause to subside, he continued with a steady voice.
But this is the Institute for Advanced Study in Princeton, the center of the world’s mathematics community after World War II!
Compared with the academic "headhunting firm" Princeton Institute for Advanced Study, Columbia University is still not good at recruiting people. Even if it offered him the position of chairman of the mathematics department as a condition, it would probably be in vain.
"Hello, I'm John Morgan, chairman of the mathematics department at Columbia University."
Because the "Annals of Mathematics" is jointly run by Princeton University and the Institute for Advanced Study, its significance to Lu Zhou is probably similar to a "school magazine" open to the outside world, so this list did not appear in his mailbox, but the editor-in-chief Evans personally delivered it to Lu Zhou.
"... Your paper will be reviewed openly, fairly and independently by six people including Faltings, Helfgott, and Ivanets. Enjoy the evening banquet. Starting tomorrow, you will be busy." Vince said with a smile.
"Mr. Lu Zhou, I am a reporter from the Philadelphia Daily News. Will you teach at Princeton? Will you return to China?"
In fact, what Evans said is still not accurate enough.
“Similarly, after discussion and decision at the Institute for Advanced Study, in view of the series of major breakthroughs you have made in the field of prime numbers, the Institute for Advanced Study solemnly and sincerely extends an invitation to you to serve as a faculty member at the Princeton Institute. "
Professor Deligne said in a matter-of-fact voice.
"... Your paper will be reviewed openly, fairly and independently by six people including Faltings, Helfgott, and Ivanets. Enjoy the evening banquet. Starting tomorrow, you will be busy." Vince said with a smile.
The two chatted easily, but as they chatted, Morgan brought the topic to Columbia University.
As soon as he left Lecture Hall No. 1 of the Institute for Advanced Study, the reporters who had been lying in wait for a long time caught up with him.
"Be merciful? Impossible. This is one of the crown jewels of analytic number theory," Evans laughed and patted Lu Zhou's arm. "Professor Sanak from the Institute for Advanced Study is quite optimistic about your paper. So, you can be more confident in yourself. I’m optimistic about you, come on!”
As soon as the report meeting ended, Lu Zhou received the review list from the "Annals of Mathematics".
"Nervous, and excited... So I need a rest now, very, very much. You can go interview my supervisor, Professor Deligne. He has provided me a lot of help, and he knows my research very well... "
"Be merciful? Impossible. This is one of the crown jewels of analytic number theory," Evans laughed and patted Lu Zhou's arm. "Professor Sanak from the Institute for Advanced Study is quite optimistic about your paper. So, you can be more confident in yourself. I’m optimistic about you, come on!”
At the end, Professor Deligne looked at Lu Zhou with a hint of approval.
In the evening, the banquet at the Princeton Hotel was nominally to provide an opportunity for scholars who had finally met to meet and communicate, but now it seems that the banquet has completely turned into a ceremony for Lu Zhou at the Institute for Advanced Study in Princeton. Celebration banquet held.
"Hello, Mr. Lu Zhou, I am a reporter from the Daily Mail. What do you think of your report?"
Looking at his students, Professor Deligne nodded and continued: "In view of the results you have achieved during your doctoral studies, you have proven your academic ability. After research and discussions at the Institute for Advanced Study in Princeton, we have decided to award you PhD.”
“Similarly, after discussion and decision at the Institute for Advanced Study, in view of the series of major breakthroughs you have made in the field of prime numbers, the Institute for Advanced Study solemnly and sincerely extends an invitation to you to serve as a faculty member at the Princeton Institute. "
A few young students even whistled at Lu Zhou.
Morgan stopped talking, just shrugged and made a helpless expression.
Lu Zhou was also stunned by this sudden question.
Because the "Annals of Mathematics" is jointly run by Princeton University and the Institute for Advanced Study, its significance to Lu Zhou is probably similar to a "school magazine" open to the outside world, so this list did not appear in his mailbox, but the editor-in-chief Evans personally delivered it to Lu Zhou.
"The offer of employment will be sent to you together with your degree certificate the day after tomorrow. Of course, the choice is up to you whether to accept the offer of employment."
"... Columbia University has many outstanding Chinese mathematicians, such as Zhang Wei and Zhang Taowu. They are all outstanding scholars. You can communicate with many outstanding Chinese students here, and our attitude towards Chinese international students and professors, It is definitely the most open in the United States, especially for scholars with potential or ability. As long as you are willing to come, we can directly hire you as a full professor."
Lu Zhou had just added a piece of steak to his dinner plate when he saw a middle-aged man in a suit walking over with a bottle of champagne.
"Nervous, and excited... So I need a rest now, very, very much. You can go interview my supervisor, Professor Deligne. He has provided me a lot of help, and he knows my research very well... "

The big guys don't have any feelings about it, it's just a professor's title. As for people of the same age and those scholars who were not famous, they held their breath.
"Hello, I'm John Morgan, chairman of the mathematics department at Columbia University."
Although not as famous as Faltins and Ivanets, his authority in the field of number theory is unquestionable.
"Nervous, and excited... So I need a rest now, very, very much. You can go interview my supervisor, Professor Deligne. He has provided me a lot of help, and he knows my research very well... "

Some people may think that the title of professor is nothing.
The two chatted easily, but as they chatted, Morgan brought the topic to Columbia University.

At the end, Professor Deligne looked at Lu Zhou with a hint of approval.

Looking at the list, Lu Zhou's scalp went numb.
Lu Zhou had just added a piece of steak to his dinner plate when he saw a middle-aged man in a suit walking over with a bottle of champagne.
Not starting from tomorrow, Lu Zhou will already be busy after this report meeting.
Morgan was stunned for a moment, looked back, and his smile suddenly became a little subtle.
Moreover, he is only 21 years old...
Lu Zhou: "Of course, China is my motherland, and I will eventually go back. But at the same time, I also like the pure academic environment of Princeton. It is a good place for academic exchanges. If Princeton is willing to give me a teaching position, I will Of course I’m happy to accept it.”

"What else could it be but a full professor?"
Professor Deligne said in a matter-of-fact voice.
Jealousy drives hostages apart...
The peer review of a major conjecture often does not strictly implement the double-blind principle as for general journal submissions, because there are only so many people engaged in this field, and problems discovered during the review period still require Lu Zhou to make decisions. explain.

"
But why is Faltings, a big shot in the world of algebraic geometry, here to join in the fun...
Lu Zhou was also stunned by this sudden question.
Morgan stopped talking, just shrugged and made a helpless expression.
"Nervous, and excited... So I need a rest now, very, very much. You can go interview my supervisor, Professor Deligne. He has provided me a lot of help, and he knows my research very well... "
Although he did use algebraic geometry methods to solve many problems in number theory.
"Hello, Mr. Lu Zhou, I am a reporter from the Daily Mail. What do you think of your report?"

Some of them are Chinese international students, and some are members of the Princeton Ivy Club. They worshiped this great god from the bottom of their hearts.
"I'm also glad to meet you. Your research results are amazing. To be honest, I have never seen any young mathematician who can delve into a problem in a certain field to the extent you have."
After a while, he took a deep breath.
In the evening, the banquet at the Princeton Hotel was nominally to provide an opportunity for scholars who had finally met to meet and communicate, but now it seems that the banquet has completely turned into a ceremony for Lu Zhou at the Institute for Advanced Study in Princeton. Celebration banquet held.
"Princeton can also provide these things you mentioned."
As Professor Deligne finished speaking, applause erupted from the surroundings.
This Morgan was a very talkative person, and he did not hesitate to praise him in his words, which made Lu Zhou feel a little embarrassed.
"Hello, I'm John Morgan, chairman of the mathematics department at Columbia University."
"... Deligne? Oh, my friend, I didn't expect you to be here too."
However, he still didn't expect that this was just the beginning.
But getting a doctorate in just three months will undoubtedly be written into the history of Princeton, and even go down in history.

At this point, Professor Morgan, who was talking non-stop while holding champagne, was no longer hiding anything.
"Lu Zhou."
Lu Zhou: "Of course, China is my motherland, and I will eventually go back. But at the same time, I also like the pure academic environment of Princeton. It is a good place for academic exchanges. If Princeton is willing to give me a teaching position, I will Of course I’m happy to accept it.”
