The top student must be diligent.

Chapter 212 He Always Creates Miracles

Time passed slowly.

A new function space that combines three characteristics is certainly not easy to master.

Although the role of the explosion trend theory is very critical, it cannot solve all the problems, especially the regularity problem.

The regularity problem refers to the study of the smoothness and continuity of solutions to partial differential equations.

The core of this problem is to determine and describe whether the solution of the equation has good differential properties under certain conditions, that is, whether it is smooth, continuous or has derivatives of a certain order.

It is also an important problem in understanding the behavior and properties of solutions to equations.

How to ensure a good estimate of the regularity problem in this new function space still requires careful consideration.

However, for Xiao Yi, these problems are indeed difficult, but since he has found a focus, the rest is just like solving a relatively difficult math problem.

Solving problems is not that difficult for him.

……

In the blink of an eye, two weeks had passed.

Putting aside the progress on Xiao Yi's side, the communication activities between recommended graduate students and supervisors held by the School of Mathematics and the School of Physics have also ended.

The mentors and recommended students who found their talents right then filled out their information directly.

Students who have not yet selected a tutor can only find a more suitable tutor on their own and contact and communicate with the tutor through email.

Anyway, no matter where they are, tutors still prefer these recommended students, so these recommended students don’t have to worry about not being accepted by tutors.

However, for the vast majority of recommended students who participated in this exchange activity, they still cared more about who won the "first prize".

The "first prize" naturally refers to becoming Xiao Yi's student. More than a hundred people have signed up to communicate with Xiao Yi. Obviously, they all know that not everyone can get Xiao Yi's favor. In the end, among these more than a hundred students, only a few will have the opportunity to stand out.

It’s just like taking the civil service exam.
So isn't this the first prize?

In the end, after the list was announced, the students who were not selected felt regretful and sad, but they did not forget to go and see the students who were selected by Xiao Yi.

Wow, why are all of them from Tsinghua University?

It doesn't matter that Sun Yuan from the School of Physics graduated from Peking University. After all, Peking University's physics does not have much advantage over USTC. At most, it is just an academic advantage. But considering that physics is basically a pure scientific research field, academic advantage does not actually play a big role. So it is understandable that Sun Yuan graduated from USTC.

But you two guys in mathematics, are you so awesome? Do you come to HKUST to bully others?

Simply searching the names of Chen Muhua and Liang Qiushi on Baidu will easily reveal the various achievements these two people made during their undergraduate studies. Each one is more impressive than the other, and they are all talented people worthy of being reported in the news.

Titles like this: [Student master story: He won national awards for three consecutive years, has a GPA of 3.88, and has published three papers independently...]

Or: [He is from Qinghua University, has a GPA of 3.95 in three years, and has won many awards in mathematics competitions...]

Can't compare, can't compare.

Faced with these two talented people, no matter how helpless the others are, they can only give up struggling in the end.

To compete with these two is totally overestimating one's own abilities.

In addition, the publication of this list not only attracted a lot of attention and reactions among students, but also caused various reactions among the teachers in the School of Mathematics.

After all, what Xiao Yi did was equivalent to directly taking away the two best students in the School of Mathematics this year.

It almost made them bite their back teeth to pieces.

But there's nothing we can do about it, after all he's a Fields Medal winner.

Naturally attractive to outstanding students.

So they could only comfort themselves that although Xiao Yi took away the two best students, the third, fourth, fifth... these outstanding students were still reserved for them, and everyone could still share.

As for the School of Physics, there was not much reaction to the fact that Xiao Yi took Sun Yuan away.

After all, there are many directions in physics. Sun Yuan is indeed an excellent student who can independently complete a first-tier thesis during his undergraduate studies. However, among students studying other fields, there are still top students whose past performance is not worse than Sun Yuan.

What's more, since Sun Yuan is engaged in pure theoretical physics such as quantum mechanics, Xiao Yi is the most suitable person to be his mentor.

Among the other tutors in the School of Physics, there are really few who specialize in these things, and most of them are still engaged in applied physics and the like.

Now that the list has been finalized, we will have to wait for them to enter school next September, which is still more than eight months away.

In addition, this year's postgraduate entrance examination also began at the end of December. The college, which had just completed the exchange activities between recommended students and tutors, shifted its focus to this examination.

Although the students who pass these entrance examinations may not be as good as the recommended students, there will inevitably be some dark horses among them, so we still need to pay attention to them.

However, these are the work of the Admissions Office and have little to do with teachers like Xiao Yi - at least not much to do with Xiao Yi, because this time they have recruited three master's students, which is enough, and next they can consider whether to recruit doctoral students.
But Xiao Yi has not made any plans for this. Although this year's doctoral entrance examination has ended, he has not paid attention to which doctoral students have successfully entered USTC.

Although some doctoral students have sent him emails recently, wanting to communicate with him, it is obvious that he now only wants to focus his time on the research of new function spaces.

As for doctoral students, you should just go with the flow.

……

"Dean Tang."

"Academician Shen."

In a conference room at HKUST.

Tang Fucheng, Dean of the School of Mathematics, and Shen Gensheng, Dean of the School of Physics, appeared here.

Tang Fucheng greeted him with a smile, and then asked, "Has the communication between the recommended students and tutors in your college been completed?"

"Well, it's over."

Shen Gensheng nodded.

This matter is usually handled by the executive dean of their college. Although he, the dean, is also concerned about it, he does not do much.

After all, he is an academician.

Tang Fucheng sighed, "We asked Xiao Yi to recruit students before, but this year he took away the two best students among our recommended students. Now our teachers are very resentful."

Shen Gensheng smiled and said, "We in the School of Physics don't have to worry about this. You in the School of Mathematics need to work harder."

Tang Fucheng rolled his eyes and joked that in their university, no college would have nothing better to do than compare itself with the School of Physics.

This is pure trouble.

"Oh, another big shot is coming." At this moment, Tang Fucheng suddenly looked towards the door of the conference room and said.

Shen Gensheng looked over and said, "Is that... Diaby's boatman?"

"Yes." Tang Fucheng nodded. "I didn't expect him to come... But I can understand that Diaby is now one of the main sponsors of the PDE Industrial Alliance, right?"

"Yes." Shen Gensheng nodded.

The meeting they attended today was a members' meeting held by HKUST, the main founding organization of the PDE Industrial Alliance.

Basically, all the institutions or enterprises that have joined the PDE Industrial Alliance have sent representatives, including some foreign faces.
However, there are relatively few big bosses like Wang Chuanfu who come in person.

In addition, there are also some reporters. After all, the PDE Industrial Alliance is now very popular worldwide, so it is normal to receive attention from the media.

"But, isn't Xiao Yi coming today?"

Shen Gensheng glanced at the people present and couldn't help but ask.

This conference can be regarded as the most grand meeting since the establishment of the PDE Industrial Alliance. Xiao Yi is the first advocate of this organization and also the creator of the explosive trend identification model on which the organization is based. If he does not come, this conference will inevitably seem to be missing something.

Tang Fucheng shook his head and said, "It seems that he is not coming. I heard that Xiao Yi has been busy researching something recently..."

Hearing this, Shen Gensheng became interested: "Oh? What problem is he studying? He didn't even attend this meeting."

Tang Fucheng shrugged: "I don't know either. Maybe it's the NS equation? Just like what we guessed before."

Shen Gensheng nodded slightly.

People have been speculating before that Xiao Yi came up with the theory of explosive trend because he was studying how to prove the existence and smoothness of solutions to the NS equations.

He sighed and said, "If he really succeeds, the final result will probably make our industrial alliance more solid, right?"

Tang Fucheng said: "I can't say for sure, but I can say there is a high probability."

After all, if the NS equation can really be proved, then the final result can certainly be used to optimize their model, thereby improving the effectiveness of the model.

By then, I am afraid that more and more institutions will join their PDE industrial alliance.

But soon, both of them shook their heads helplessly.

It's a good idea, but we should always remember that this is the Millennium Problem, and solving it will be no easier than any other problem.

Can Xiao Yi really create a miracle again?

They could only regard this as a miracle.

Not long after, the meeting began quickly.
Principal Bao attended the event first and delivered a speech, thanking various sponsors.

In addition to private enterprises such as Diaby, the sponsors also include quite a number of state-owned enterprises, such as China Construction Group, as well as a small number of foreign companies, mainly important companies in the industrial field such as Siemens.
This meeting mainly discussed the various arrangements for the alliance, especially the issue of model training, which was also the most concerned issue for the members present. After all, only when the model is trained can it be used.

Now, with the arrival of various sponsorships, the server cluster is being built and training will officially begin soon.

After learning the news, many sponsors present expressed their satisfaction. Isn’t this what they have been waiting for?

In this way, the Q&A session began at the end of the conference.

Many reporters asked one question after another, such as how much help their model is expected to bring to the industrial field, or how much research it is expected to help in the future.

Although President Bao himself is not a researcher of fluid mechanics, he still answered these questions one by one, and each answer was very appropriate.

As an academician, and a capable academician who has won the first prize in natural sciences in recent years, his abilities are naturally sufficient to deal with these problems.

However, after a few routine questions, a foreign-looking reporter stood up.

"Hello, President Bao. I am a reporter from CCN. We have been following the recent news about the PDE Industrial Alliance. We all know that Professor Xiao Yi is the promoter and caller of the establishment of the PDE Industrial Alliance. However, we have discovered a problem. In the recent activities of the PDE Industrial Alliance, Professor Xiao Yi has not been seen. For example, Professor Xiao Yi has not attended an important meeting like today."

"Does this mean that Professor Xiao Yi doesn't care about the PDE Industrial Alliance, or that the Science Island Laboratory where Professor Xiao Yi works has been kicked out of the founding institution system of the PDE Industrial Alliance?"

As soon as the foreign reporter asked the question, many people present changed their expressions.

Tang Fucheng couldn't help but curse in a low voice: "These foreigners really deserve to die!"

Seeing that their international industrial organization had just started to show some signs of improvement, they began to try to sabotage it.

This question obviously intends to reduce the influence of the PDE Industrial Alliance by provoking the relationship between the PDE Industrial Alliance and Xiao Yi.

Anyone with a discerning eye can see that Xiao Yi’s influence is quite significant as the PDE Industrial Alliance has been favored by so many companies and organizations.

If others could feel that there was a rift in the relationship between Xiao Yi and the alliance, it would definitely affect subsequent sponsorship cooperation.

Bao Hexin on the stage couldn't help but frown.

Although I expected these people to ask some tricky questions, I didn't expect them to do it from this angle.

But soon, Bao Hexin relaxed his eyebrows and said with a smile: "You journalist friends may have misunderstood. First of all, Professor Xiao Yi is also a professor at our University of Science and Technology of China, and Science Island Laboratory has always been an important partner of USTC. Therefore, there is no such thing as Science Island Laboratory being kicked out of the so-called system."

"As for what you said about Professor Xiao Yi not caring about the PDE Industrial Alliance, that is even more untrue."

Having said this, Bao Hexin paused.

He was glad that when he invited Xiao Yi to attend the conference, he was rejected and specifically asked the latter why he did not come.

Now this can come in handy.

"The reason why Professor Xiao Yi did not attend this conference is because she is studying a very important and critical issue. Once this issue is solved, it will be of great help to the PDE Industrial Alliance."

“That means we will not only be able to identify explosion trends, but also improve and optimize fluid modeling!”

At this point, Bao Hexin smiled slightly and said, "You may also try to guess what problem Professor Xiao is studying."

As he finished his answer, there was another round of discussion in the audience.

What problem did Xiao Yi study?
In a way, the answer is pretty obvious.

Suddenly, another group of reporters stood up and asked excitedly: "President Bao, do you mean that Professor Xiao Yi will solve the existence and smoothness of the solution to the NS equation?"

Bao Hexin spread his hands and said, "Well, it's hard for me to say. You have to wait until Xiao Yi reveals the answer to this question himself."

"But let's just trust Xiao Yi."

"After all, he always works miracles!"
