Chapter 585

So Jiang Cheng's final choice is to solve and prove the Riemann hypothesis.

Riemann hypothesis is a hypothesis put forward by mathematician Riemann in 1859, which is a hypothesis about prime numbers.

There are some special numbers in natural numbers, which cannot be expressed as the product of two smaller numbers.

That is to say, this number can not be obtained by multiplying two numbers. This number is called a prime number.

For example, 3 is a typical prime number. If any two natural numbers less than 3 are multiplied together, they will not get 3, while 4 is not a prime number, because 2 times 2 equals 4.

Prime numbers are quite common in natural numbers. 2, 5, 19, 137 equivalent words are all prime numbers. Riemann hypothesis is about this kind of prime number.

the distribution of prime numbers in natural numbers seems very chaotic. At first glance, there is no distribution rule of prime numbers.

But Riemann, a great mathematician, proposed a complex function, which is called Riemann zeta function.

Riemann thinks that his zeta function is related to all prime numbers.

That is to say, all primes can be expressed as this function. Primes are not randomly distributed, but regular.

Zeta function is the law of prime distribution, which can help people find all prime numbers.

The hypothesis put forward by Riemann attracted all mathematicians' attention as soon as it appeared, because prime number is very important for mathematics, which is the most basic part of mathematics.

If the Riemann hypothesis is correct, it can greatly improve the development of mathematics.

But the hypothesis proposed by Riemann is just a hypothesis, not a proven axiom, so it can not be applied to mathematical research.

So many mathematicians began to study this hypothesis, hoping to prove the correctness of Riemann hypothesis.

Unfortunately, these mathematicians have not got any results. The Riemann hypothesis is still a hypothesis and has not been proved by anyone.

Even the proponents of Riemann's hypothesis can not prove its correctness.

More than 150 years have passed. In such a long time, there are countless talented mathematicians who want to solve this problem.

But after so many years, the Riemann hypothesis has not been proved.

Since Fermat's theorem was proved, the Riemann hypothesis has become the most famous problem in the mathematical world, and also the most difficult mathematical problem in the world.

Jiang Cheng paid attention to the popularity of the Riemann hypothesis, and it was the most difficult problem, so he chose to solve the Riemann hypothesis.

Although Riemann hypothesis is the most difficult mathematical problem, Jiang Cheng is not afraid at all, but full of fighting spirit.

For Jiang Cheng, there has always been no such thing as difficulty.

For Jiang Cheng, the most difficult problems can be solved, just how much time it takes.

Before, many people claimed that they had proved the Riemann hypothesis. Unfortunately, these proofs were proved wrong in the end.

In 2015, another Nigerian mathematician claimed that he had proved the Riemann hypothesis, which caused quite a stir at that time.

Unfortunately, the Institute of mathematics, which set up the Millennium prize, did not recognize this mathematician's achievements. It seems that there must be something wrong with his research.

After Jiang Cheng decided to study the Riemann hypothesis, he found the Nigerian mathematician's paper to study.

He quickly found out what was wrong with this paper. The Nigerian mathematician was wrong from the beginning, so the whole paper was wrong.

No wonder the achievements of this Nigerian mathematician have not been recognized by the Institute of mathematics.

It turned out that there was a problem in the fundamental direction. No wonder his research has not been recognized by the international mathematical community.

After finding out the mistakes in this paper, Jiang Cheng quickly put the paper aside.

This wrong paper is of no use to Jiang Cheng. He can't even enlighten him.

Although the Nigerian mathematician's idea is wrong, Jiang Cheng himself can not find any correct solution.

Jiang Cheng sat on the chair and thought for a long time, but he couldn't find a way to solve the Riemann hypothesis.

However, it's normal for Jiang Cheng to be in such a situation now. If Jiang Cheng could come up with a solution at any time,

then these "473" problems would not be called the most difficult mathematical problems at present, and they have not been proved for more than 150 years,

after thinking for a long time, Jiang Cheng has no idea, so he is ready to think about it in a different way Questions.

Lucy, help me find out all the papers about Riemann hypothesis, screen out the valuable research results, and then sort out the final results. Jiang Cheng gives up his meaningless thinking and turns to give a new order to Lucy in midair.Jiang Cheng thinks that if he can't figure out a way, it's better to take a look at the research of others.

Although those studies have not proved the Riemann hypothesis, some papers are still very valuable.

At least those papers can help Jiang Cheng get rid of some wrong answers and save the time he needs to find a way.

Generally speaking, people who want to study this kind of mathematical problem need to understand all the previous research processes. This is the basic method of mathematical research.

Jiang Cheng is just doing ordinary things, at least for mathematicians.

Since Jiang Cheng wants to see the success of previous studies, he should just find out all the papers on Riemann hypothesis.

If you look at the previous papers, you won't lose anything. Maybe you can help Jiang Cheng find some inspiration.

But there are many papers on Riemann hypothesis. After hundreds of years of accumulation, countless mathematicians have studied this problem, and they may have left tens of thousands of papers.

It takes a long time to finish these papers, and not all of them are useful.

Some of these papers are full of mistakes, which is of no use to Jiang Cheng.

So Jiang Cheng needs Lucy's help to screen out useful things. Naturally, Lucy will help him analyze which papers are helpful to him and which papers are just useless rubbish.

In this way, we can save a lot of unnecessary effort for Jiang Chengjie and put more energy on research.

Lucy's artificial intelligence can not only help him carry out technical research, but also be very useful for Jiang Cheng to specialize in basic subjects.

It's really a top-level AI. It can help Jiang Cheng in all fields.

After hearing Jiang Cheng's order, Lucy began to enter the state of calculation again.

OK, master, I'll help you with the search and screening work. Please wait a moment. It will be ready soon. “
