"I say this, can you understand me?"
Zhang Yuan was silent for a while, then nodded.
Brother Zhao continued: "So, the fundamental purpose of the new civilization history is to find a global optimal solution in a complex network system through a mathematical method... that is, the best direction for the development of a civilization." "If it is
true With the existence of this method, we can indirectly or directly predict major historical events that may occur in the future, and avoid future disasters by changing the current node." "Predict the future?" Zhang Yuan was dumbfounded, this subject is too
special Is it metaphysics?
Seeing his disbelief, Senior Brother Zhao said with a smile: "Actually, I'm just talking about it. The whole process is very difficult.
" Capacity... Anyway, this discipline has only a preliminary prototype so far, and it is far from being completed." "
However, as long as the history of new civilization is completed, the entire civilization will not need politicians, nor will it need a ruling class."
"Mathematics will guide the direction of the entire civilization!" "
This kind of overall wisdom will go far beyond the current pattern of politicians and achieve a leap in the internal level of civilization!" "
So, the next history of earth civilization, It is very, very important to the development of this subject..."
Zhang Yuan thought for a long time, but still felt a little unbelievable.
During such a casual chat, the destination of the space elevator, the Earth Era, arrived.
After saying goodbye to everyone, Zhang Yuan came to his room without stopping.
After returning to this familiar small area, I suddenly relaxed and felt exhausted.
After washing up, Zhang Yuan lay on the bed and thought wildly.
Think about what you have seen and heard these days, and what you just heard about the "new historiography of civilization". He was still immersed in the discussion with Senior Brother Zhao just now.
Use mathematical calculation methods to guide future political planning.
Linking global history, future, and neural networks seems to be... interesting.
It was the first time that he had a relatively great interest in this school.
"But... how should it be done?"
How should "historical problems" be transformed into mathematical models?
"It may belong to the category of operations research. No, it is not enough to use operations research alone. There are also psychology and economics."
Zhang Yuan thought hard.
Unfortunately, after pondering for a long time, I have no idea.
It is more difficult than the legendary "mathematical abyss", and I don't know how to do it at all.
Sighing softly, he turned over on the bed and couldn't sleep again.
Speaking of "mathematical abyss", it is actually ranked according to the level of difficulty.
According to his understanding, the first level of mathematics is equivalent to mathematics in high school and below, including four mixed operations, Cartesian coordinate system, trigonometric functions, geometry and so on. All are intuitive content, it is not difficult to understand.
The second level of mathematics is equivalent to college mathematics, calculus, limit finding, partial differential equations, Fourier series, Laplace transform, etc. It belongs to the category that ordinary people can master through hard work.
The third level, group theory, topology, algebraic geometry, algebraic number theory. The kind that ordinary people may not be able to master through hard work.
By analogy, the fourth level, symplectic geometry, random matrix, cohomology, etc., can only be played by professional scientists.
The fifth level, world-famous conjectures with huge influence, including Riemann conjecture, P=NP, Hodge conjecture and so on.
The legendary mathematical abyss "stock market prediction" belongs to the sixth level.
Yes, stock market forecasts.
No one knows whether the market will rise or fall tomorrow. If anyone knows, he must be a liar.
As for "New Civilization Historiography", Zhang Yuan estimates that it may be... the seventh level.
Even the historical events that will happen in the future are trying to accurately predict, what is the stock market forecast? Isn't it a little thing?
After figuring this out, he no longer overwhelmed himself with challenging this super difficult problem, but fell into a drowsy sleep.
