I Just Want to Be a Quiet Top Student

"16 minutes and 10 seconds! This result is amazing!"

In the stadium, the spectators who knew a little about long-distance running were amazed that Shen Qi won the men's 5000-meter race with a time of 16 minutes and 10 seconds.

Most of the referees are physical education teachers. The physical education teachers said: "16 minutes and 10 seconds, this is the level of a second-level athlete. An amateur in the mathematics department can run this score. Shen Qi is convulsed? The king of amateur long-distance running at Yanda University ?”

Shen Qi not only had a convulsion, but also had cramps. After crossing the finish line, he lay down on the track, paralyzed from exhaustion.

System: "New achievement! Congratulations to the host for winning the championship of the school principal's run, rewarding you with 5,000 academic mastery points!"

With the support of Zhou Yu'an and others, Shen Qi returned to the dormitory, he was exhausted.

The intramural long-distance running festival is an amateur-level track and field competition, and the system rewards a small number of points for the top students, 5000 points.

But no matter what, Shen Qi earned back the points from investing in sports upgrades, and this wave is not a loss.

The young man in his eighteenth or nineteenth year was in good health, after a night of sleep, Shen Qi returned to normal the next day, alive and well, and he was a hero.

In the next two months, Shen Qi will concentrate all his energy on his studies.

There are a lot of things to do in school, and there are still four mathematics papers that have not yet been drafted, and the credits for counting points and solutions have not been obtained, and public courses have to be taken care of... All of this must be completed before mid-to-early January, and it is completed Only Shen Qi could go home for the New Year.

In the first week of November, Shen Qi put aside all chores, went to and from the library and dormitory every day, calmed down and finished his second paper "A Class of Solutions to Vector Calculus".

Shen Qi felt that this paper did not have any deep mathematical connotation. It was nothing more than providing a calculation method. It was acceptable to have some academic qualifications, but it was difficult to arouse the sympathy and shock of the mathematics colleagues.

Where should I submit papers that use quantity and presence?

Shen Qi thought for a while and made a decision, let's vote for the "Mathematics Innovation Journal" of CUHK, which is the mathematics journal he first submitted.

It has something to do with the promotion of Mathematics to Level 7. Shen Qi wrote the papers very fast. He completed two mathematics papers within a month, and he was still taking care of chores and sports activities in the department.

According to historical records of mathematics, the fastest thesis writer in history is Euler, who published 886 papers in his lifetime.

Euler was a child prodigy in mathematics. He entered the University of Basel at the age of 13 and began writing his thesis at that time.

By the time he died at the age of 76, Euler had completed an average of 14 papers per year. These are very professional academic reports, not short essays. Euler's paper update speed can be described as amazing.

Euler is extremely talented, hardworking, and updates his code words every day. It is unreasonable for such a person to become a god. So Euler became the great god among the great gods, the platinum god of mathematics.

According to Shen Qi's incomplete statistics, Euler's thesis production peak was between the ages of 17 and 27, and he wrote an average of more than 30 papers per year, that is, more than two papers per month.

In the middle and late stages of Euler's career, he focused on teaching and sorting out the academic system, and his coding speed slowed down, but he still maintained an annual update of 3-5 papers.

One must always have a goal to catch up with. Shen Qi locked on the young Euler as his goal: "Before the age of 27, I have to complete 300 paper updates. If Euler can do it, why can't I?"

"In Euler's time, there was no computer, no internet, and no LaTex. Writing papers was all about pen and paper. Euler was really powerful. With such a primitive way, he could write nearly 900 papers in his life. Human-shaped codewriter --- Euler."

In mid-to-late November, Shen Qi completed his third thesis "Two Analysis of Linear Associative Algebra" after he graduated from university.

According to Shen Qi's self-assessment, the level of the third paper is between the first and the second, so it is good to submit to the kind of journal between the core journals and general journals.

To which journal to submit a paper to, the author must be a little bit in mind.

For some papers derived from conventional mathematical analysis methods and algebraic calculations, if you vote for Ann-Math, no one will bird you.

For thesis topics such as "Proof of Hodge's Conjecture" and "Mathematical Analysis of P to NP Problems", if you submit them to domestic general journals, people will not understand them. Of course, this is just a metaphor. No one can prove the Hodge conjecture and the P-to-NP problem.

For the third paper "Two Analysis of Linear Associative Algebra", Shen Qi submitted the PDF version of the manuscript to Tongji's "New Journal of Mathematics".

Slightly sort out the submission methods of the three papers.

For the first paper "A Solution of Three-Dimensional Hypercomplex Numbers", Shen Qi submitted to Zhejiang University's "Journal of Mathematics Research", which is a national core journal, with an impact factor of 0.302.

For the second paper "A Class of Solutions of Vector Calculus", Shen Qi submitted to the "Mathematics Innovation Journal" of CUHK, which is a general journal, not included in SCI, and has no IF value.

For the third paper "Two Analysis of Linear Combination Algebra", Shen Qi submitted to Tongji's "New Journal of Mathematics", which is also a national core journal, with an IF of 0.219.

Then there are still two papers left to be drafted, which are from the 23rd and 26th questions in the "36-question secret volume".

What Shen Qi values ​​most is question 23. During the verification process of this question, he introduced a new proof method. He decided to retreat for half a month to a month, concentrate on completing the paper based on question 23, and submit it to the domestic influence Higher-degree mathematics journals. "Acta Mathematica Sinica", "Annual Journal of Mathematics", "Progress in Mathematics", "Mathematics Herald" and other four domestic mathematics journals, choose one of the four.

The derivation logic of question 26 is not complicated, but the amount of calculation required to convert it into a thesis is very large. Shen Qi is about to retreat, and the latest date of leaving the customs may be in the middle and late December. The period at the end of the year will be very busy. The final exam of the subject is put in a centralized manner.

Shen Qi needs an assistant to help him complete the thesis conversion of question 26, and there is a most suitable candidate——Ouye.

Shen Qi sent a WeChat message to Ouye: "The coffee shop at the gate of the school, meet me in 10 minutes."

Ouye replied: "so?"

Shen Qi: "I need you to help me with a paper. Do you still remember the 26th question in the 36-question secret volume of Gao Dai? You pointed out my calculation omissions."

Ouye: "OK."

Shen Qi took his laptop and USB flash drive and went to the off-campus cafe.

Ouye also came later, and the two met.

"Come, sit next to me." Shen Qi patted the booth, his computer was placed on the table in front of him.

Ouye sat down and stared at the LaTex document on Shen Qi's computer screen.

"Have you taken any medicine?" Shen Qi asked.

Ouye didn't look sideways: "Eat."

Shen Qi asked again: "What would you like to drink?"

Ouye took out the thermos from the bag: "Warm water."

"Ouye, don't save me money, how much does it cost to have a drink? Did you bring your own boiled water?" Shen Qi waved his hand and summoned the waiter.

"Don't worry about bringing your own." Ouye said, unscrewed the lid of the thermos bottle, and took a sip of warm water.

The waiter came to Shen Qi and asked politely, "Sir, what do you order? Our signature is Caramel Macchiato."

Shen Qi: "I'll order a glass of Wen Bai Kai, thank you."

The waiter was embarrassed: "One of you brings your own boiled water, and the other orders boiled water. Sir, we are running a coffee shop."

"I don't like coffee and neither does she, thank you."

"There is also a fee for ordering plain water." The waiter is still qualified, but he complains in his heart, this man and woman are really a pair of horses, and they only drink plain water when they come to the cafe.

"Yes, the charge is reasonable. We are reasonable college students, so we can't drink your boiled water for free." Shen Qi nodded, sent the waiter away, and pointed to the laptop screen and said to Ouye: "Based on the 26th question For the writing of the thesis, I compiled an outline of ideas. You continue to expand the specific derivation and calculation content according to the outline of my thesis. The amount of calculation is relatively large. I hope you can complete the first version before December 15th, and then review it for me. This paper We both signed, is there a problem?"

Ouye fell into deep thought: "I can't fully understand your outline."

"Student Ouye, your logical comprehension ability needs to be further improved. It's been almost three months since school started, and you haven't made much progress." The outline drafted by Shen Qi was indeed quite jumpy in logic. He immediately revised it, and asked while revising: "The method of analyzing, matching and eliminating elements, do you understand? If you don't know, check the information yourself."

Ouye: "I understand."

Shen Qi: "The implication of this paragraph is that if the Jacobian of ui with respect to xi is zero, then the function is not irrelevant, and vice versa. I won't write the formula, and you can add it yourself. If you don't understand it, just check the information .”

Ouye wrote down carefully: "Oh."
