CHAPTER 63

Chapter 63

    Although, out of personal thoughts, Jiang Ye silently joined the "Zhou's Conjecture" proof paper, but in fact, he didn't have much expectations, purely to satisfy his nostalgia for his youthful memories.

    "Zhou's conjecture" is a problem of the century. It is not an easy task to prove it. Many people have failed on this road, and even he himself is one of them.

    Because relevant departments attach great importance to national education, there are more and more highly educated people in society, and undergraduates have almost become the bottom line for companies to recruit. But in fact, if you look carefully at their dissertations, most of them are talking back and forth, let alone the field, even the theory, which has no effect or new ideas.

    Serious water injection in papers is a relatively obvious problem in the academic circle in the past two years, but it is really difficult to catch it.

    After all, if you want to get a degree, you must write a thesis, but some students are not good at it, or some schools have insufficient education, and the number of students is average, so it can't be that many students are not allowed to graduate, right?

    That's social news.

    What Jiang Ye can do is to try his best to guide the few students he leads not to write meaningless papers. They are all students of Shoujing University. When publishing their dissertations, they must put forward some interesting points.

    Considering the current situation in the academic circle, regardless of whether this paper proving "Zhou's conjecture" is successful or not, Jiang Ye appreciates the author's spirit of daring to challenge the difficult problems of the century.

    Even though he is the academic editor of the SCI "Annual of Mathematics", relatively speaking, the papers he sees on weekdays are of relatively high quality, but not every paper submitted dares to challenge this century-old problem.

    Very rare.

    However, let's read the text first, and if he delays for a while, he will have to go to a meeting. Of course, if a problem is found, he must also pay attention to the wording and tone of the review suggestion to be a little milder, so as not to dampen people's research enthusiasm.

    Thinking of this, Jiang Ye began to read the paper.

    【Abstract: The conjecture proposed by Zhou Haizhong in the article "Distribution Law of Mersenne Prime Numbers" in 1992 is internationally named "Zhou's Conjecture": when 2^(2^n)<p<2^(2^( n 1)), Mp has 2^(n 1)-1 prime numbers. This paper proves this conjecture to be true. And make an inference accordingly: when p<2^(2^(n 1)), Mp has 2^(n 2)-n-2 prime numbers. 】

    This abstract is written very simply. It is to say the source, proposer, content and inference of "Zhou's conjecture".

    It's pretty straight to the point, no nonsense.

    Jiang Ye smiled.

    [Keywords: Zhou's conjecture; Mersenne prime number; proof;]

    This is quite satisfactory.

    Jiang Ye scanned it and felt that there was no problem, so he began to read the text.

    For a proof paper on a guess, either the proof is true or the proof is not true, but it must be well-founded.

    It's a bit like a lawyer defending a client in court. You must produce absolutely strong evidence and give enough convincing reasons that are in line with the law to convince the judge that what you said is true and give a corresponding judgment. .
