So-called stipend ( fellowship ), is the entire prize in usual significance. Distinguishes between scholarship ( sholahip ), the stipend not only remitted the school expense and hotel expense of award-winning student, but also meets the award-winning student certainly living expenses as the individual consumption expenses.
Also therefore, the stipend competes in the application process especially intensely, generally besides the request high paper surface result, needs to provide an attractive domestic school report card regarding the overseas applicant, and letter of recommendation and studies the plan.
Regarding different schools, even is different individuals, the amount of entire prize is different, even the payment pattern is also divided into the taking year to pay off in a lump sum or, quarter hit the funds for the unit monthly wait/etc..
The entire prize application difficulty of Princeton, is in North American many universities is without doubt strictest, particularly the entire prize of doctor stage. But regarding a postgraduate candidate of Kohl theory of numbers prize rank, as if no any problem.
After all land Zhou, but competent writes the letter of recommendation to others, do not say that his teacher was elderly man Deslignes.
In stipend that the land boat attains, contained remitted the school expense hotel expense, a free medical insurance, and a paying off in a lump sum 40,000 US dollars bonus.
The bank by Princeton University managed open/stretch card, rewards the check of check and Princeton stipend that withdrew cash after Kohl, land Zhou looks in the balance that string of numbers, in the heart a feeling.
Others spend greatly money goes abroad to study, oneself study abroad not only has not been spending, instead also gained one.
Subtlety that this feeling really could not have said.
......
Got through the stipend and matter of school expense miscellaneous expense, land Zhou was stabilized in Princeton University temporarily.
Here regarding the undergraduate student, the studies is truly arduous, but regarding postgraduate candidate, if not the teacher urges is too tight, instead will be quite loose.
Although Professor Deslignes arranged the work of teaching assistant for him, but the first class in April, has one month from the present. The land boat even pulled out for several days to come out, goes to nearby town/subdues testing the driver's license.
Besides Goldbach's conjecture this long-term research subject, the duty of his present stage, primarily under the guidance of Professor Deslignes, learns the knowledge of algebraic geometry.
The one who lets the land boat be wild with joy, in this old person hand from Belgium, there is his long-awaited thing deceased Venerable Grothendieck's «Draft political guideline» original manuscript and by a US math postgraduate candidate who minored in French translates to 3/4 English translated editions.
With modern algebraic geometry Holy Bible «Algebraic geometry Foundation ( ega )» different, since millennium Grothendieck reclaimed all work copyrights, «Draft political guideline» then only spreads in some mathematicians, in which many thought that even can comprehend until today's no one completely.
land Zhou at the invitation of deceased Venerable Grothendieck, had not gone to France to seek for this for the heritage of modern algebraic geometry Pope, on the one hand is because knows nothing to French, on the other hand is because did not have a thorough research to the work of Venerable Grothendieck.
That «Draft political guideline» original manuscript adds English translated edition, regarding the land boat, it can be said that helps what busy. Thing that the personal direction of Professor Grothendieck's outstanding disciple Deslignes, many obscurely is in addition difficult to understand, becomes easily.
Really, chooses a good teacher, can save a lot of time.
Besides under the direction of Professor Deslignes, completes to the study of algebraic geometry, land Zhou other idle times, almost used the Goldbach's conjecture.
Once inspiration came suddenly, he has not even been going out several days, closed/pass oneself in ten square meters single room, formed in one's mind how in the evening the frame of theory, will stem from the Goldbach's conjecture „group construction law”, returned to Goldbach's conjecture this proposition comes up.
Finally he has not thought, this closes up, is one week, even also misses the course that should not miss.
For this matter, Professor Deslignes also telephones specially, inquired his outcome what's the matter.
However, in knowing land Zhou for these days not in New York or Philadelphia of everywhere wave next door, but closes studies diligently itself the Goldbach's conjecture after the room earnestly, Professor Deslignes then does not have again to the matter that he ditches school to say anything, was only silent a while, said with the warning tone.
„Research mathematical problem needs to study diligently, but the specialty does not mean to divorce oneself from reality. If you felt that your research fell into the bottleneck, my suggestion is you can bumping into the issue puts temporarily, goes out to play a soccer, or is looked that several movies...... the inspiration needs you to seek on own initiative, rather than other inspirations look for you on own initiative.”
land Zhou: „I will seriously consider that your suggestion...... was right, can I ask for leave?”
Deslignes: „How long?”
land Zhou thinks, said: „Two weeks.”
Deslignes: „That does not need to ask for instructions me, you can freely schedule your time. But if within one year, your topic has no progress as before, I will give you to arrange other research work. Golden period such dozens years of research math, I do not look at you a all year round time waste on a blind alley.”
Then, the senior professor made the telephone call.
Put down the cell phone, land Zhou smiled reluctantly, is transferring the ball pen in hand.
Is the time only one year?
It seems like although Professor Deslignes on the mouth had not said that similar that but actually at heart and Morina thinks, does not favor itself to complete this task.
However this also side explained that this senior professor to own care. If changes individual, even if perhaps sprouts up the fantasy to plan that changes professions to go to Hollywood to make the movie, this venerable may not have too the response.
„Cannot hesitate here, must make the best use of the time.” Shakes the head, the land boat took up by the pen that he transfers to fly, starts to consider as finished at the scratch paper performance.
......
Although on the mouth was saying will seriously consider, the habit of but for many years forming, is not a short time can change.
Moreover, land Zhou does not believe, what own custom does have is not good?
The mathematics circles has Chen Jingrun that type to walk was pondering the old pedant who issue, has Perelman that type eccentrically to the recluse who rather gnaws old is not willing to go far to receive an award, there is a Kolmogorov this deep love household of foreign shipment „amateur boxer”( most famous one time in the Soviet academic conference, because debated that brandishes fist to own teacher hot tempered......).
land Zhou felt oneself are not the eccentric researcher, when necessary he will also listen to the course of peer to broaden the mentality, and being glad stands on the tribune shares own research success with the peer. But more often, he is accustomed to closing the door a person studies diligently.
This after several days.
Saturday early morning, the weather of out of the window hazy bright.
Does not know when lies in the land boat that on the table falls asleep, is moving the somewhat stiff arm, by stretches oneself behind the chair.
„Perhaps I should please a nanny......”
Also does not know now the robotics development of Silicon Valley how.
If possible, he has really thought has custom-made one set of machine body to little Ai, the good and evil can also make under this manpower mental handicap display inspect the use outside mail.
For example, with express electronic dog anything.
As for the too complex work, he did not count on that it has that skill.
Is thinking some impractical things, the land boat while rubbed the bitter brow, looks to unfold more than ten pages of scratch papers on table, selected several useless rubbing to become one group, threw into nearby basket.
Felt that the belly was somewhat hungry, he then stood up, entered the kitchen.
Took out the smoked meat slice and fresh vegetables from the refrigerator, after the boiling water crossed several dries, clamps drenches the salad dressing in two slices of thick bread, and forced in the oven together.
Very regrettable, US here outmoded stir-fried dish, makes to bake occasionally sends to generally also in the outdoors, although this single room has with the kitchen, was actually short of the gas burner and kitchen fan, does him spatially to have good cook, does not have the opportunity.
Although land Zhou has also looked for the apartment manager, inquired whether peaceful kitchen fan and stove in kitchen, finally was actually used the surprise the vision to look, and rejected without hesitation.
Thinks is also, this is the construction with a history of more than 90 years, and has had/left many famous scholars. Perhaps crosses dozens years to have an extraordinary personality from here again, this apartment Former Residence of Einstein with nearby not far away was the same, turned into the museum also perhaps.
If this does not catch fire carefully, that was a pity......
Regarding the view of apartment manager, land Zhou also can only show the understanding.
He mainly goes to the diet club to eat meal in any case, when is very busy or is in the morning, under the thing with refrigerator will deal with.
After solving the breakfast, land Zhou made. the coffee to oneself, stands by the refrigerator is drinking leisurely, while stares at tick-tock the clock of rotation to reorganize the previous mentality cup
At this moment, he receives the call that Senior Brother Luo made suddenly.
„Hey, you do not reach an agreement must look at the car(riage) with me today? I arrived at the school entrance, when did you plan to embark...... do not tell me you not to get out of bed?”
Until this time, land Zhoucai realized, oneself as if close up was a little long.
