Chapter 41 Professor's Advice

"What? Academician Hu said that my paper may be the best paper on far Abelian geometry in recent times?"

What else can you say, a perfect mathematical paper?

After receiving a call from Professor Liu Bin and hearing what the other party said, Xiao Yi was shocked.

Oh my god, am I a mustard cow?

"Professor Liu, is this true? Did Academician Hu really say that?"

Liu Bin on the other end of the phone laughed and said, "Well, am I lying to you? Of course it's true. Academician Hu is standing next to me now. How about I ask him to tell you again in person?"

Then Academician Hu's voice came over the phone: "Haha, Xiao Yi, you still don't believe what I said?"

"Ah, Academician Hu, you are here too." Xiao Yi was embarrassed.

"Haha, you have to have confidence in yourself and your thesis. We also believe in your talent."

On the other end of the line, Hu Guangde's voice became clearer, probably because he had just taken Professor Liu's phone. "When I first read your paper, I was convinced of its value. Now, after reading it for a few days, I am completely certain that your talent in mathematics may be higher than any of us imagined."

Xiao Yi couldn't help but feel flattered to receive praise from an academician, and said modestly: "It's not that good..."

"Don't underestimate yourself." Hu Guangde said with a smile, "I hope you can continue to use your talent in the future and don't let it go to waste. Who knows, you may even become the Gauss of our China."

Gauss, the Prince of Mathematics, was a mathematical genius in the 19th century. He was a well-known figure in the mathematical world... no, it should be said that he was a well-known figure in the whole world.

And now, Hu Guangde actually used Gauss to compare Xiao Yi, which shows how optimistic he is about Xiao Yi's talent.

Liu Bin on the side also showed surprise in his eyes, but soon his surprise was restrained and turned into an expression of "that's true".

At the age of 19, Gauss proved the ruler and compass construction of a regular 17-gon, while Xiao Yi, who is only years old this year, completed the proof of the absolute teleological Abel conjecture.

No one can tell who is better or worse. We can only wait a few years or even decades until Xiao Yi gradually makes more achievements in mathematics before we can make another judgment.

"Okay, Xiao Yi, there's no need to say anything else. Next, you should start translating this paper into English."

Hu Guangde said.

"Okay!" Xiao Yi answered first, but then he was stunned again. Translate into English?
“Why do we need to translate it into English? Do our domestic core journals also need to be written in English?”

"Uh……"

Hearing Xiao Yi's question, Hu Guangde and Liu Bin looked at each other in confusion.

It turns out that this young man is still thinking about publishing his paper in a core journal?
Compared with the quality of this paper, this professor and academician didn't know how to evaluate such a "newbie" question for a while.

Even though Xiao Yi is just their junior now, he treats them with respect, and they are all seniors in the academic world. Not to mention that Hu Guangde is an academician, Liu Bin is also an outstanding scholar who has been selected as a Young Elite Scholar. Naturally, they are also quite talented in mathematics.

But facing such a young genius...

It really... makes me want to curse.

Why is God so unfair?

Hu Guangde suddenly felt a little tired. He waved his hand disinterestedly, handed the phone back to Liu Bin, and said, "You tell him. I'll... take a break."

Liu Bin had no choice, he also wanted to slow down.

But there is no way, after all he is the leader.

He could only explain to Xiao Yi: "The core journals in our country may not be very good for your paper. Your paper can already be published in international core journals."

"Just like the journal where the proof of Fermat's Last Theorem you read earlier was published, Annals of Mathematics is one of the most core and authoritative journals in the entire international mathematics community."

"As Academician Hu has said, your paper is the best paper on far-Abelian geometry in recent times, so you can definitely publish it in some of the top international mathematics journals."

“Although it’s a little far-fetched for a top journal like Annals of Mathematics, it’s totally fine for a second-tier journal.”

"Academician Hu and I both recommend that you publish in Publications mathématiques de l'IHS, which is a mathematics journal of the French Institute of Advanced Studies in Science. It is very famous in our mathematics community, and the quality of the papers in the journal is also very good, without any watered-down papers."

"In addition, after you submit your paper, Academician Hu will also provide you with some help and allow your paper to be put in the review queue, so you don't have to wait too long." "What do you think?"

After hearing what Liu Bin said, what else could Xiao Yi say?
He was not completely ignorant of these journals. He knew that the "Annals of Mathematics" was one of the four top journals in the mathematics field.

But I didn't expect that my paper could be submitted to a journal second only to the Annals of Mathematics.

Isn’t the elementary value defined by the voice in my head a little too exaggerated?

According to his guess, if he wanted to continue upgrading the buff of [Ruthless Link], he would have to publish at least a medium-valued paper.

Now, even papers of elementary value are already published in second-tier journals, so papers of medium value should at least be at the level of the Annals of Mathematics, right?

Going up, to higher values...

Could it be a paper as heavyweight as the one that proved Fermat's Last Theorem?

Xiao Yi felt a little overwhelmed for a moment.

"Hmm? Xiao Yi, is everything ok?"

Seeing that Xiao Yi remained silent, Liu Bin on the opposite side asked again.

Xiao Yi came back to his senses and quickly responded: "Oh, no problem, I will start translating in the next two days."

"Well, send it to me after you finish translating it, and I'll help you take a look."

"Okay, thank you Professor Liu."

……

Soon, a few days later, Xiao Yi completed the translation of the paper. It was his first time to do this kind of English translation, so it took him a lot of effort.

He then sent the translated paper to Liu Bin and asked the professor to help take a look at it.

Under the guidance of Liu Bin, Xiao Yi modified the format and changed the wording in many places, making it more like an SCI paper.

"Okay, that's about it. When it comes to essay writing, the more you write, the more experience you'll gain, and you'll become more proficient in it in the future."

Liu Bin said with a smile on the phone.

"Thank you, Professor Liu!" Xiao Yi thanked.

"Well, that's it. You can submit your paper to IHES. If you have any questions during the submission process, just ask me." Liu Bin said.

At this time, Xiao Yi suddenly asked, "Um, Professor Liu, if I want to be the corresponding author, should I fill in your name? I saw online that the corresponding author is usually the name of the supervisor."

When Liu Bin heard Xiao Yi's words, he was stunned, and then he was moved.

However, although what Xiao Yi said made Liu Bin a little excited, after all, this was an IHES!

But he still held back his impulse and said quickly, "No, don't fill in my name. Just fill in your own name as the author information. Don't fill in any other names."

"This paper was completed entirely by you, so you are the only author."

Xiao Yi said: "But, after all, you were the one who chose this topic for me."

Liu Bin laughed and then said, "It's just a topic, no big deal. I didn't provide you with any guidance during the process. In fact, this topic was given to me by Academician Hu. I don't understand it myself, so how can I be the corresponding author?"

"What's yours is always yours."

"Also, don't send your papers to others casually in the future. The academic world is not clean, and it's even a little dirty. Protect yourself and your achievements."

"This is also my advice to you as a professor."

Listening to Liu Bin's words, Xiao Yi on the other end of the phone was moved. At the end, he said sincerely, "Thank you!"
