Chapter 649: Serious flaws

Proven?
Lu Zhou glanced at the screen a bit unexpectedly and put down the coffee cup in his hand.
"Are you sure you are declaring proof? Rather than providing a possible proof of thought?"
"Yes ... the author of the paper claims to have solved the mass gap problem of the Young Mills equation, and the claimant is not small," glanced from the author's information, and Luo Wenxuan continued in an unbelievable tone. "" Brian Carlo, a professor at Oxford University, a member of the Royal Society and a member of the European Academy of Sciences, has participated in research related to the discovery of Higgs particles, and has received five honors including the Newton Medal from the British Physical Society ... incredible He is sixty years old this year. "
Sixty years old is not the golden age for studying physics, but it is not enough to reach the age of memory decline. But even so, it is not easy to make such achievements at this age.
However, probably because Lu Zhou didn't know much about theoretical physics, he had never heard of Professor Brian Carlo.
As Brother Luo finished reading his resume, Lu Zhou paused and asked.
"Is the paper already published as a preprint? Or is it just an abstract?"
Luo Wenxuan clicked the mouse twice: "A preprint has been released."
Although this situation is relatively rare in mathematics, it is not uncommon in physics. Especially in the field of theoretical physics, for the study of some major propositions, even many very senior professors like to hang a preprint first, so as to prevent scholars in the same field from coming in first.
After all, this field is too difficult to make results, and a step slower than others may lead to years of effort being put to waste.
Lu Zhou said with interest: "Print a copy for me."
"Okay ... I don't understand why, why do you like to type your papers on paper. Isn't the e-reader very convenient now?"
"There is no particular reason, except that I like to read sensible papers."
Although Lu Zhou occasionally swipes literature on his mobile phone, it is all inconvenient.
If he can read on the sofa in the library or at the desk in the study, he is naturally more willing to print the paper on paper. One is convenient for taking notes, and the other is convenient for him to jot down the inspiration that suddenly flashed into his mind.
The printer is buzzing.
By printing the paper, Luo Wenxuan staring at the paper on the screen suddenly said something abruptly.
"What if he was right?"
Hearing this sentence, Lu Zhou gave a slight glance, and looked at him strangely.
"Yes, right, what's wrong with this?"
Luo Wenxuan also gave him a strange look and couldn't agree.
"Don't you feel sorry?"
Lu Zhou: "What can I regret?"
Luo Wenxuan made a helpless expression: "Please, we have studied for so long, and now it is only the last point, but someone else has already boarded it first. You don't feel at all."
Lu Zhou said with little concern: "It's nothing to regret, no matter who solved the problem, it's the same for me."
Both the Fields and Nobel Prizes have been won. In terms of personal honor, Lu Zhou has actually not pursued much. The reason to study these issues is just to get an answer. If someone is really inspired by his research and successfully solves the problem of quality gap, it will be more happy for him than to solve the problem by himself.
Seeing the indifference of the landing boat, Luo Wenxuan opened his mouth, and finally sighed.
"Okay ... I can't reach you yet."
Lu Zhou said casually, "There will be such a day."
...
In a minute or two, a twenty-page paper was printed on the paper.
As an unprinted pre-print, this paper can be said to be more sincere in terms of the thickness of the paper.
At least in terms of format, it has reached the format requirements of ordinary medium and long-term journals, and the argumentation of the main text is quite clear. There are no preprints hanging on the Internet just to occupy pits. You can find more than ten at a glance Vulnerabilities.
After printing the dissertation, Lu Zhou found a sofa in Brother Luo's office and combined it with the abstract of the dissertation, he quickly passed the text.
In general, Professor Brian Carlo's ability is pretty good, both mathematically and physically. Although there are still some gaps with some of the top scholars he knows, at least the ability and fame are still matched.
And what surprised Lu Zhou the most was that the method adopted by Professor Brian Carlo was very similar to the idea chosen by him and Brother Luo. It was based on Professor Jaffe's paper published in the annual mathematics. Explain the existence of mass gaps by studying particles with mass m.
However, when it comes to studying this particle with mass m, the two sides have different ideas.
What Brian Carlo was thinking about was not to introduce a quantum field corresponding to the classical interaction quantity in the aforementioned problem, namely the quantum Young Mills field, to solve this problem, but to adopt a method similar to Weinberger, A scalar field on a space-time manifold is used to solve this problem.
Regardless of the questionable places in the thesis, at least in Lu Zhou's view, it is very rigorous.
After all, the zero-mass problem of strong interaction cannot be solved simply by the method of "symmetric break".
"His proof is very close to the truth, but in the end he passed by the end." After dropping the paper in his hand, Lu Zhou touched the coffee at hand, but found that the cup was cold, so he got up and walked to the water dispenser. Next to it, ready to make another cup.
Upon hearing what Lu Zhou said, Luo Wenxuan immediately raised his head, and his spirit fluttered.
"So he was wrong?"
"Don't be gloating, his paper still has some merits, such as discussing the existence of the four-dimensional gauge field from the normalization of the grid points, and for example, on the torus euclid, the constant action of some gauges is given. A well-defined path integral came out ... of course, he had a lot of questions. "
Luo Wenxuan: "For example?"
"For example, while discussing this issue from the normalization of the grid points, he did not prove that the grid step size is approaching the zero-hour limit, so the method of defining the normative constant action amount in the toric spacetime is not rigorous ~ www .EbookFREE.me ~ even wrong. "
Having said that, the land boat that re-made a cup of coffee blew along the mouth of the cup, took a light sip, and paused for a few seconds before continuing, "But I'm not sure if this is a preprint, maybe He already thought of a good proof, but he didn't post it here. "
This situation is also common.
After all, many high-quality papers on arxiv have been perfected through constant discussion and modification.
Luo Wenxuan: "So he didn't prove it?"
"This is the way it is now. No matter what other people think, at least in my opinion, he has not succeeded." Speaking of this, Lu Zhou sighed, his tone slightly disappointed.
He originally thought that Professor Brian could show him something different, but he did not expect that he would still make a mistake that almost everyone would make.
Sure enough, we have to rely on ourselves to solve this problem.
