From failed candidate to chief scientist

Chapter 194 Ah no shadow!
"Huh? Lin Mo's thesis?"

Madsen sat down at his desk early in the morning, turned on his computer, logged into his mailbox, and saw a new email from Lin Mo, who was specially marked in his mailbox.

"Lin Mo has another new achievement?"

Madsen rubbed his hands excitedly and eagerly opened the email.

"Mathematical arguments related to the AdS/CFT conjecture, written by Lin Mo and Marina Vyazovska."

Madsen looked at the paper in the mailbox, his eyes dull.

He couldn't believe his eyes.

AdS/CFT conjecture?

Someone actually proved the AdS/CFT conjecture?

How can this be?

Isn't this thing impossible to prove?

how did you do that?
This is impossible!This must be fake!

Madsen's subconscious told himself that it was impossible for anyone to prove the AdS/CFT conjecture.

But looking at the name of the author of the paper, Lin Mo, Madsen had to shake off his subconscious thoughts.

That is Lin Mo. He has completed many studies that ordinary people cannot complete, and has proved many conjectures that others have not been able to prove. He has even solved the NS equation. Maybe he can really prove the AdS/CFT conjecture?
Madsen suppressed his shock, opened the paper, and read it word for word.

two hours later.

Madsen looked up from the screen blankly.

He didn't understand.

As the editor-in-chief of Acta Mathematica, he actually failed to understand the paper in front of him. This was a big blow to Madsen.

He felt stupid.

But his intuition told him that this paper should be correct and there would be no problems.

only……

Madsen still wants to find out a little more.

This was, after all, an important paper on string theory, and Madsen had to be cautious.

Even though he always trusted Lin Mo, Madsen still wanted to understand what and how this paper said.

Madsen thought for a while, picked up his cell phone, and chose to call the author of the paper directly and ask the author of the paper to explain it to him.

Then I called several times in succession. The phone rang for a long time, but no one answered.

Madsen shook his head helplessly.

He thought for a moment, changed a number, and dialed.

The phone rang a few times and was quickly picked up.

"Hey, Marina, are you okay now?"

Madsen called the paper’s second author, Marina Vyazovska.

"Well, Marina, that's it. There are some parts of your paper that I don't understand. Can you explain it to me?"

Marina Vyazovska on the other side of the phone was obviously stunned for a moment, and a trace of confusion flashed in her eyes.

"Thesis? What paper? I haven't published a paper recently!"

Marina was a little confused.

"It's the paper between you and Lin Mo."

"Lin Mo and I's thesis?"

"Argument about the AdS/CFT conjecture..." "Argument about the AdS/CFT conjecture?"

Marina was still confused.

"Madsen, just tell me what's going on. I'm confused by your question."

"Ah, this...well, Marina, this is what happened..."

Madsen briefly talked about the paper.

Marina was stunned.

"Lin Mo had discussed the AdS/CFT conjecture-related issues with me before, but..."

"You mean Lin Mo has proved the AdS/CFT conjecture and sent the paper to you?"

Marina was stunned. It had been less than a week since the last time Lin Mo came to discuss this issue with her. Lin Mo had solved the AdS/CFT conjecture?

What speed is this?

This is AdS/CFT conjecture!
An important basic theory about string theory!
If other research is built brick by brick, which can be seen and touched, then string theory is a castle in the air built out of thin air by scientists purely relying on their rich imagination.

It is so ethereal that it is like looking at flowers in the mist or fishing for the moon in the water. It cannot be seen clearly or touched.

For this reason, although no one in the academic community has ever been able to deny the correctness of string theory, there is also no unified consensus in the academic community that affirms that string theory is correct.

But now, Lin Mo has actually proved the AdS/CFT conjecture, an important basic theory of string theory, which laid the foundation for the correctness of string theory.

For example, Lin Mo built a castle in the air for string theory and built a ladder so that people can have the opportunity to climb up the castle in the air and get close to the castle in the air.

Of course, the proof of the AdS/CFT conjecture is only a very basic step, and it is still far from being able to truly step into the castle in the air and have immersive contact.

However, even so, this is definitely a firm step towards the confirmation of string theory, a milestone step.

Marina tried hard to recall what she and Lin Mo said that day.

But no matter how hard she tried, she felt that she had not provided any useful information in proving the AdS/CFT conjecture, and had not been able to give Lin Mo any help.

But now, Lin Mo actually put her name as the second author, which made her feel deserved.

"Marina, Marina, are you still there?"

The voice coming from the phone woke Marina up from her memories.

"Here I am, Madsen. I can't answer the question you asked me for the moment. Can you send me this paper? I need to read it again before I can give you the answer."

"That's...ok, no problem."

From Marina's words, Madsen could tell that Marina didn't seem to know the existence of this paper, which meant that Marina was probably not involved in the writing of this paper. However, after thinking about it, Marina was the author of the paper. As the second author, there is no problem in sending it to Marina. He just hopes that Marina can give him the answer as soon as possible and solve the doubts in his heart.

"Marina, the paper has been sent to your email. Please explain it to me as soon as possible."

"Okay, take it easy, Madsen."

Marina immediately opened her mailbox, found the new email from Madsen, clicked on the paper, and checked it.

a few hours later.

It turned out to be like this...

The entire proof process of the paper is clear. Although the derivation process involves many theories of high-dimensional spheres, which makes it difficult for some people who have not studied this to understand, for Marina, this problem does not exist, so Marina It was easy to understand the entire paper.

And precisely because she understood it, Marina was even more shocked.

Lin Mo elaborated and demonstrated in the paper the interconnection and transformation between the critical points on the surface of high-dimensional spheres and sub-dimensional spheres.

Then use this as the core to construct the gravitational field of the AdS space and the existence and relationship between its conformally symmetric quantum fields to conduct research and demonstration, thereby proving the adaptation and existence of the duality, and proving it from the perspective of pure mathematical argumentation The coupling of AdS/CFT proves the correctness of the AdS/CFT conjecture.

Marina's eyes were full of disbelief at this moment, and she kept muttering in her mouth: Ah, no shadow!Ah no shadow!
