Chapter 621

In less than half a day, the news of Gu Lu's return had been spread by the Yan University School of Medicine to everyone.

Many big-name figures in the field of mathematics were shocked.

Many people also set their sights on the distant country of China.

Gu Lu.

That is a name that represents a legend.

And since, Gu Lu announced his comeback after a year and a half.

So.

Gu Lu's next plan is definitely to start research on a new topic.

But……

What exactly is the research content of Gu Lu’s new topic?

on the forum.

Many mathematicians have different opinions.

But an accurate answer has not been discussed for a long time.

The reason is simple.

Because the scope of Gu Lu's involvement is really too wide.

Algebraic geometry is where Gu Lü became famous.

In addition, Gu Lu is also known as one of the five geniuses in the world of algebraic geometry.

but……

The areas that Gu Law Firm specializes in are not just algebraic geometry.

Geometry, algebra, number theory, and even functional analysis, Gu Law has been involved in all these fields and has achieved good results.

Everyone really couldn't guess which field Gu Lu would focus on next.

but.

No one was very anxious.

Because according to Gu Lu's temperament and everyone's understanding of Gu Lu, Gu Lu is not the kind of person who procrastinates.

Since Gu Lu has chosen to return now, he has probably already thought about what he will study next.

It is estimated that it will not take long for everyone to get accurate news.

…………

Everyone's guess was correct.

The news of Gu Lu's return had just spread in the morning, and in the afternoon alone, Yan'an University of Science and Technology released specific news about the content of Gu Lu's next research project.

This speed is not bad at all.

but……

Now, no one cares about this speed, but focuses all their attention on the second message released by Yanda Shuyuan.

Rather than saying that what Yan Dashuyuan released was a piece of news, it would be better to say that it was a summons order!

That's right, it's a summons!

A call to arms for the entire mathematical community!

at the same time.

Everyone knew the specific content of Gu Lu's next project.

Geometry-algebra-topology grand unified theory!

When everyone heard these words, almost without exception, their pupils shrank and their mouths opened wide.

Because this news is really shocking.

In fact, the shock level is even greater than the news of "Gu Lu's return" this morning.

Why?

Because Gu Lu's idea of ​​constructing a unified theory of geometry, algebra and topology is really too bold.

Everyone had previously speculated on which field of mathematics Gu Lu's next project would involve.

Now, the answer is revealed.

None of the posts on the forum were correct.

Gu Lu did not just study a certain field as everyone thought, but also dabbled in three different fields: geometry, algebra, and topology, and tried to establish a grand unified theory.

Such a bold act was unexpected by everyone.

Geometry-algebra-topology grand unified theory, that is geometry-algebra-topology grand unified theory!

In academia, no one with the words "grand unification" is a simple thing.

For example, the grand unified theory of the universe, which is known as the crown jewel of academia, is the object of pursuit by many people.

Although the geometry-algebra-topology grand unified theory is completely incomparable to the grand unified theory of the universe, it is considered a very difficult theory in the entire mathematical community.

after all.

This theory spans three different branches of mathematics, and the content contained in it is extremely complicated.

Trying to organize so much complicated content into the same framework gives everyone a huge headache just thinking about it.

As for how difficult it is to construct a unified theory of geometry, algebra and topology?

It is definitely higher than the narrow Hodge conjecture.

As for comparison with the seven major mathematical conjectures of the millennium.

It can be said that...

Successfully constructing a unified theory of geometry, algebra and topology is almost as difficult as proving the bottom two of the seven conjectures.

Even if there is a difference, it's not much of a difference.

Be clear.

in today’s mathematics world.

There is not even a theoretical framework that can unify the field of algebraic geometry, there are just a few potential frameworks.

As for a theory that unifies the entire geometric world, that is out of the question.

And now, what is Gu Lu going to do?

Gu Lu wants to skip the two stages of algebraic geometry grand unified theory and geometric grand unified theory, and directly construct the geometry-algebra-topology grand unified theory.

This is equivalent to learning to run before you can even crawl.

The difficulty can be imagined.

In fact, if it hadn't been for the fact that the person who studied this topic was Gu Lu, everyone would have started to curse now.

Because this thing sounds too unrealistic.

After all, Gu Lu had created too many miracles in the past few years, so everyone did not draw a decisive conclusion immediately and all started to ridicule Gu Lu.

but……

In everyone's words, there is still a skeptical attitude towards this matter.

…………

certainly.

The reason why everyone calls this news announced by the Yanda Mathematics Institute a summons is because in addition to explaining the specific content of Gu Lu’s next project, it also sends an invitation to the entire mathematics community to join.

invite.

Simply put.

It was Gu Lu who invited mathematicians from around the world to join the research group and jointly construct the geometry-algebra-topology theory.

This incident did not surprise anyone.

Constructing a geometry-algebra-topology grand unified theory requires a considerable amount of work.

Gu Lu could not be unclear about this.

If Gu Lu had been left to his own devices, he might not have been able to successfully construct a unified theory in his lifetime.

Therefore, Gu Lu's only plan is to find helpers.

So, there was this summoning order from Gu Lu.

Calling together mathematicians from all over the world to join this vigorous work.
To be continued...
