Chapter 47 How Dare He?!

This is obviously unscientific.

But when unscientific events actually occur, as a mathematician, one can only try to find scientific explanations for the unscientific.

Really, Zhao Guangyao had already stopped caring about losing face at this point.

He couldn't understand how an eighteen-year-old high school student could spot an error in a top journal's Group Theory paper at first glance, and also have the ability to give professional criticism on his paper on geometry.

It's true that Group Theory is related to geometry.

Theoretically, given a Transformation Group, there corresponds a type of geometry.

A hundred years ago, understanding both fields at eighteen, although impressive, would not make people question their existence.

But after all, it's the twenty-first century now!

Today's mathematicians focus on increasingly specialized subjects!

The various mathematical tools have become so specialized that they might as well be worlds apart.
