Li Jian Gao also decided to heed the advice of his colleagues and directly copied the completed 137-page thesis into Dou Dou's database for immediate Chinese to English translation.

Dou Dou was originally designed as an AI software to assist in research, and the Mathematics Research Institute's back-end could always access certain functions of Dou Dou's database. Text translation was one of its most basic functions.

Currently, Dou Dou can translate the world's top ten mainstream languages. Translating a 137-page paper from Chinese to English only takes about half a minute. After the translation to English, the thesis expanded to 151 pages.

The format and wording of the thesis were basically impeccable.

At least, Li Jian Gao sat there for three hours and didn't find any problems.

Besides feeling a bit unaccustomed to some Pinyin annotations marked out in the paper, Li Jian Gao really could find no fault with it.

This strange feeling primarily came from unconsciously imagining the scene where he would communicate with foreign mathematicians in the future, and those mathematicians would suddenly interject a few Chinese pronunciations into their English speech.

It gave a sense of déjà vu of an ABC (American-Born Chinese).

Putting aside that feeling, the quality of the translation was almost beyond reproach.

Technology changes research.

If Chinese to English translation can achieve this quality and efficiency, then the reverse, English to Chinese, would naturally be similar.

In the future, downloading electronic versions of various papers and instruction manuals in English and then entering them into the database would suffice, and even simultaneous interpretation could rely on this technology. This is probably a godsend for many researchers whose language abilities are not particularly outstanding.

Although he was very emotional, Li Jian Gao still meticulously read through the entire paper translated by Dou Dou.

The general feeling was that the latter part of the paper about weighted factors became more abstract. To be honest, he only polished that section; not only did he hardly understand the specific proof process, but many professors in the institute also didn't understand it very well.

The definition of the function w(n) was complex, involving judgments, and the selection method was not very intuitive. Even with the aid of graphical interpretations, everyone had at best a superficial understanding, but when the function w(n) was applied in calculations for verification, it proved to be effective.

The research institute even used Qiao Ze's weighting function and, with the help of supercomputing, calculated a new Mersenne prime in an extremely short time: 2^90,000,301 - 1.

What's more interesting is that since Qiao Ze's weighting function W(n) has not yet been accepted by the academic community, it cannot be used for calculations, which means that to verify this number as an actual Mersenne prime, supercomputing would need a longer time for validation.

Because it's impossible to waste too much computational resources merely to validate this Mersenne prime, finding this number only took two days with the same computing power, but verification would require at least two to three weeks to get results.

After all, this number has more than twenty-seven million digits.

And the corresponding perfect number is even larger, based on the formula it can be calculated as 2^90,000,300 X (2^90,000,301 -1). ƒгeeweɓn૦vel.com

Such large numbers are only useful in mathematical research.

If the number is finally verified to be correct, the institute could potentially exploit a time difference and cash in on it.

There is a GIMPS project abroad, which primarily contributes computing power to find Mersenne primes. Discovering a new prime number can earn a reward of 3,000 US dollars, but the reward for finding the first Mersenne prime over one hundred million is 150,000 US dollars, and for a billion-digit prime, it is 250,000 US dollars.

Qiao Ze naturally doesn't care about that amount of money.

But for other professors and researchers at the Mathematics Research Institute, if the weighting formula really works, finding numbers with a hundred million or a billion digits wouldn't be too difficult. As long as they find the numbers first and report them, the resulting award money would be quite exhilarating once verification comes through.

International research contributions like this don't require personal income tax payments in Huaxia. Over four hundred thousand US dollars, at the current exchange rate, amounts to two or three million Renminbi. Even if shared among those who witnessed it and divided per head, each person could get more than two hundred thousand, which is close to half a year's salary plus various subsidies.

Before winning any major academic awards like the Fields Medal, the Gauss Prize, or the Chen Xingshen Prize, it's always right to earn more money to improve one's living conditions.

It is evident that professors can be extremely creative when it comes to earning money, and with well-established information channels, they always find appropriate ways to monetize their knowledge when they have resources.

To this, Li Jian Gao of course had no objections. As for Qiao Ze, he simply couldn't care less about such trivial matters.

After handing over the thesis to Li Jian Gao, he started to tackle a series of problems.

One day of resting his mind clearly wasn't enough.

Qiao Ze then turned his attention to other propositions, such as the Riemann Hypothesis, another one of the seven Millennium Prize Problems.

This was also related to prime numbers, but proving it indeed proved to be more challenging than the Goldbach Conjecture.

After a week of consideration, he mapped the superspiral structure to the zeros of the ζ function. However, superspiral algebra manifested in the complex plane as a type of special nonlinear dynamic characteristic, making the use of this feature to prove the distribution of the zeros of the ζ function extremely difficult.

Especially difficult was identifying and dealing with potential singularities within superspiral algebra, as well as effectively performing analytic continuation of the ζ function. Even though the numerical methods provided by superspiral algebra were already advanced, achieving the precision necessary for description was still extremely challenging.

Qiao Ze felt that solving this problem within the framework of superspiral algebra alone was particularly challenging.
