26岁华人学者，在数学界顶级平台当教授。 他15岁考入西安交大少年班，本科期间创造神绩： 16门课程100分、24门98分、30门以上95分，大一至大三均分成绩96.94，"陶神"的名号在校内广为流传。 去伯克利交换学习期间，他也把"学霸模式"拉满： 三门研究生课程里，两门直接拿下A+，其中代数几何，还是教授从教以来头一回给学生打出A+的成绩。 全国大学生数学竞赛、丘成桐大学生数学竞赛等诸多赛事的获奖名单上，都曾留下他的名字。 要知道，法国高等科学研究所阵容堪称数学界天花板配置，历任常任教授共有13位，有8位都是数学最高奖项菲尔兹奖的获得者。 在西安交大，他素有"陶神"之名 在IHES公告中是这样介绍陶中恺的： 对分析有着浓厚兴趣，尤其是光谱理论和微观局部分析。 26岁从UC伯克利读完博士，再露面时，已经是法国高等科学研究所（IHES）官宣的新成员了，将出任该研究所初级教授。 他就是陶中恺。 后来还曾获得阿里巴巴全球数学竞赛金奖，是四位金奖得主中最年轻的一位。 在本科的伯克利交换学习期间，他三门研究生课程，两门都是A+，这还是代数几何授课教授破例给出的首个A+。 因此他也在学校里被同学们冠以"陶神"的称号，不 ...

Core Viewpoint - The article highlights the remarkable achievements of Tao Zhongkai, a 26-year-old Chinese scholar who has recently been appointed as a junior professor at the Institut des Hautes Études Scientifiques (IHES) in France, emphasizing his academic excellence and contributions to mathematics and theoretical physics [5][7][32]. Group 1: Academic Achievements - Tao Zhongkai entered the Xi'an Jiaotong University (XJTU) youth class at the age of 15, achieving outstanding academic results, including 16 courses with a perfect score of 100 and maintaining an average score of 96.94 during his first three years [2][15]. - During his exchange program at UC Berkeley, he excelled in three graduate courses, receiving two A+ grades, including a rare A+ in algebraic geometry, awarded by the professor for the first time [3][20]. - He has won multiple national and international mathematics competition awards, including a fourth place in the National College Student Mathematics Competition and a bronze award in the Qiu Chengdong University Mathematics Competition [18][19]. Group 2: Research Focus - Tao's research interests include spectral theory, micro-local analysis, general relativity, condensed matter physics, and problems arising from hyperbolic dynamical systems [10][11][28]. - His recent work involves significant contributions to the spectral analysis of periodic/quasiperiodic Hamiltonian systems and the mathematical understanding of new electronic states in two-dimensional materials [29][31]. Group 3: IHES and Its Significance - The IHES is renowned for its high-caliber faculty, with 8 out of 13 permanent professors being recipients of the Fields Medal, the highest award in mathematics [8][42]. - The institute focuses on cutting-edge research in mathematics and theoretical physics, attracting world-class mathematicians and physicists [38][39]. - Tao's appointment at IHES is seen as a significant addition to the institute's already prestigious lineup, which includes other notable scholars [57].

Group 1 - The core viewpoint is that Wei Dongyi, a researcher at Peking University's School of Mathematical Sciences, has gained significant online popularity but is experiencing a decline in followers on social media platforms [1][3] - Wei Dongyi's Douyin account had over 24.3 million followers initially, but has lost more than 300,000 followers in half a month, averaging a loss of 20,000 followers per day [3] - There are ongoing discussions regarding whether the account was opened at Wei Dongyi's own will, who is currently managing it, and whether it will be deactivated in the future [3] Group 2 - Wei Dongyi is set to become an associate professor at Peking University, with a tenure starting from August 1, 2025, although his current title remains assistant professor and researcher [8] - The Human Resources Department of Peking University stated that title evaluations are publicly announced and follow a specific process, with future updates to be provided through official channels [8]

Core Viewpoint - The article discusses the resolution of Hilbert's sixth problem, a significant mathematical challenge posed by David Hilbert in 1900, which has been solved by a team of Chinese researchers after 125 years [1][11]. Group 1: Authors and Their Backgrounds - The research was conducted by three authors: Deng Yu, a professor at the University of Chicago; Zaher Hani, an assistant professor at the University of Michigan; and Ma Xiao, also an assistant professor at the University of Michigan [2][27]. - Deng Yu graduated from Peking University and MIT, and completed his PhD at Princeton [28]. - Zaher Hani completed his undergraduate studies at the American University of Beirut and his master's and PhD at UCLA, studying under renowned mathematician Terence Tao [31][34]. - Ma Xiao graduated from the Young Scholars Program at the University of Science and Technology of China and completed his PhD at Princeton in 2023 [35]. Group 2: Significance of the Research - The resolution of Hilbert's sixth problem is not only a theoretical milestone but also provides new mathematical tools for the study of fluid mechanics [5][6]. - The achievement has been celebrated within the mathematical community, with some referring to it as a "miracle year for Chinese mathematics" [6][8]. Group 3: Methodology and Findings - The authors approached the problem by deriving fluid dynamics equations from microscopic Newtonian mechanics using Boltzmann kinetic theory [4][25]. - They introduced a cumulative quantity analysis method to track the complete history of particle collisions, leading to the proof of the long-term validity of the Boltzmann equation [18][20]. - The research culminated in the derivation of the Euler equations for compressible fluids and the Navier-Stokes-Fourier equations under incompressible conditions [21][25].

一水 发自 凹非寺 量子位 | 公众号 QbitAI 中国女数学家首个菲尔兹奖要来了？？ 就在最近，数学大佬陶哲轩激动宣布： 困扰数学家上百年的经典难题—— 挂谷猜想 （Kakeya猜想） ，被 北大校友王虹 及 哥大数学副教授Joshua Zahl 在三维空间中证明了。 根据陶哲轩的科普，三维Kakeya猜想断言： 一个包含每个方向上单位长度线段的集合（Kakeya集），在三维空间中必须具有Minkowski和Hausdorff维度等于三。 （具体下文再 详细展开） 虽然看起来只有一句话，但这个问题却与调和分析、数论等多个数学分支有着紧密联系，因此一直以来吸引了无数数学家竞相攻克。 现在，北大校友王虹和Joshua Zahl用 127页论文 证明了这一说法。 这事儿马上在国内引发诸多热议。 有人表示，一旦上述arXiv预印本通过审稿，凭借这一突破，王虹成为了 2026年菲尔兹奖的热门人选 。 要知道，菲尔兹奖是国际数学界最负盛名的奖项之一，被称为 数学界的"诺贝尔 奖" 。 它旨在表彰那些在数学领域做出杰出贡献的年轻数学家（40岁以下）。该奖项每四年颁发一次，通常在国际数学大会（International ...
