Mathematical genius fortune-telling problem

Maybe this is what life needs. When we are unhappy, we should keep silent, read more and think more, learn to listen and tolerate, have a career that we love and are willing to pay for, and don't have to worry about the gains and losses of foreign things. Like most people, we don't have to indulge in resentment and revelry, empty-handed and dragged down by boredom and sadness. Only in this way can our abilities be better displayed in good times.

A natural talent for mathematics

In this impetuous era, it is difficult to be indifferent to fame and fortune, concentrate on one's own career, and not be disturbed by the outside world, but Russian mathematician grigory perelman can keep his initial heart and focus on mathematics to the extreme.

Perelman showed unusual talent and love for mathematics since he was a child. When primary school students are learning the written calculation of two digits, perelman can freely calculate three digits in his mind.

After entering the elite middle school, perelman even shined brilliantly, participated in the International Mathematical Olympiad and won the gold medal with the first full mark in history. This year, perelman 16 years old.

After graduating from college, he was admitted to the Institute of Mathematics and began his postgraduate study. With the recommendation and support of famous mathematicians, he attended the International Geometry Conference.

At the meeting, Jeff Zieger, a professor at new york University in the United States, appreciated perelman's talent very much and offered him an opportunity to be a doctoral student at new york University. In this way, perelman completed his postdoctoral degree at new york University.

During his postdoctoral research, perelman solved many mathematical problems, among which the "soul conjecture" made him stand out and attracted American universities to hire perelman as a teacher.

But then perelman did something that surprised everyone, and returned to his hometown to work in the research institute. Perelman didn't say why he returned to China. Opinions vary. Some people say that he is arrogant, dissatisfied with the behavior of letting him submit his resume according to the procedure, and returned to Russia in a rage.

There is also a more credible statement that after 9 1 year, Jews migrated to Israel, the United States and other countries. Perelman's father and sister chose to move to Israel, while perelman's mother resolutely stayed in the motherland.

At this point, perelman had to make a choice, but no matter which choice is undoubtedly painful. As a scholar with distinctive personality or extremely stubborn and persistent world outlook and personal feelings, perelman chose to stay in his own country.

Prove "Poincare conjecture" and reject millions of dollars.

Perelman worked in the Institute for several years and never applied for official funding for academic research and writing academic papers. Without the shackles of institutionalization, perelman, who is not seduced by fame and fortune, can concentrate on his own research on mathematics. He devoted himself wholeheartedly to a subject that impressed countless mathematicians-solving Poincare conjecture.

In June 2002, perelman announced that he had solved the "Poincare conjecture", one of the seven mathematical problems in the world, and published a paper on the Internet, which caused an uproar. Subsequently, perelman released the second report, which published a more detailed proof process.

Many experts believe that perelman's answer will make outstanding contributions to other aspects of astrophysics. Some people say that proving Poincare conjecture is the basis of the development of mathematics history and a milestone in the development of human thought.

Prove that Poincare conjecture is listed as one of the top ten scientific advances in 2006. Perelman was rated as one of the top ten mathematical geniuses in Britain, and some of their revolutionary discoveries even changed our way of life.

Later, perelman was invited to lecture at many top universities in the United States. In 2006, at the International Mathematical Congress, the International Mathematical Federation decided to award the Nobel Prize in Mathematics-Fields Prize to perelman. Faced with this great honor and the temptation of $6,543,800+,perelman chose to refuse.

The following year, he resigned from the post of the institute and disappeared. Some people say that he went back to his hometown to live with his mother and lived in seclusion, becoming a veritable otaku. Others think that perelman's rejection of 1 10,000 dollars is stupid to the extreme.

It is proved that Poincare conjecture made perelman famous, but he didn't like being noticed by the public. Perelman also rejected the interview intention of major media. Perelman thinks that his biggest interview point is the solution of Poincare's conjecture, but he has published all the calculation processes, so he has always thought that he is not worthy of attention.

Elephants are invisible and the road is simple.

Colleagues in the Institute have somewhat withdrawn their comments on Paellmann. He concentrates on research, is indifferent to fame and fortune, is sincere, friendly and shy, and hates evil. Professor DuSautoy of Oxford University commented that "perelman has been divorced from mathematics."

Professor DuSautoy thinks that for perelman, the happiness brought by proving his theory is far greater than the value of money. The clerk in the shop near perelman's home said that he basically only bought bread, macaroni and yogurt, which was cheap and easy to make. It seems that he can't afford fruit and drinks.

Therefore, some people think that perelman turned down the $654.38+00000 prize for the "Millennium Prize Problem" because he couldn't afford the travelling expenses, but Clay Institute denied this statement because the organizing committee would pay all the expenses for him.

Perelman is widely known for refusing the million-dollar prize, but in fact, perelman refused the invitation of some famous American universities to ask him to be a professor, refused the title of outstanding young mathematician awarded by the European Mathematical Society, and refused to be elected as an academician of the National Academy of Sciences.

Fame and fortune are only fleeting things for perelman. What he cherishes and insists on has always been mathematics. He alienated the crowd, but he never alienated mathematics. All this is because of his love of mathematics. In today's academic circles, there are really very few people who can concentrate on academic research regardless of fame and fortune!

For a life like Perel, who is gifted, maverick, never goes with the flow, rich in heart and indifferent to the world, we are doomed to be unable to spy into the hearts of wise men. All his life, he pursued the freedom of mind and the liberation of thoughts, and he achieved so much that he could still maintain himself. Perelman's academic and ideological achievements are beyond our reach.

Perelman's story is over, but it also makes us more confused. What is the pursuit of people living in the world? Do you choose to be ordinary, or do you struggle with your little talent and courage? Envy perelman may be due to his mathematical talent or his indifference.
