Chapter 613: Letter From Clay Institute

When Lu Zhou submitted the thesis, he never thought that his Annual Mathematics thesis would cause such a sensation.

After all, that was only in-progress results, it was far from reaching the essence of the Yang-Mills equations. At most, he just took a step that others had not yet taken.

It wasn't until Academician Lu kept asking him questions excitedly that he realized that the situation wasn't as simple as he had thought.

The status of the Yang-Mills equations in the physics world was far higher than its position in the mathematics world.

For the mathematics community, it was just a difficult partial differential equation, but for the physics community, it was the first step toward the Grand Unified Theory, the holy grail of modern theoretical physics!

Therefore, even though it was a small step, it still shocked the entire world.
