Coming to work in Tsinghua is an important turning point in Hua's life, and his mathematics career really started here.
It took six and a half years from a junior high school graduate to a university teacher. Later, he said to his friends: people have received more education than me, and I have to spend twice as much time to remedy my shortcomings. So I have to work 12 hours every day to feel at ease. During his four years in Tsinghua University, Hua published more than a dozen papers on number theory and taught himself English, French and German. By the age of 25, he had become an internationally renowned young scholar. Hua was quickly promoted from teaching assistant to teaching assistant and teacher, and was later hired as a researcher by China Cultural Education Foundation.
Hua has never been superstitious about genius, and thinks: Genius comes from accumulation, and cleverness lies in diligence. He proposed? Old trees are easy to empty, old people are easy to scatter, and the scientific approach is to quit empty scattering. I am willing to be faithful to my life? As a warning to himself, until shortly before his death, he wrote:? Only when you are white will you know that you are dull and will work hard for the future. Diligence is a good medicine, and a little effort is a little talent.
The short story of mathematician Hua
When Hua was nineteen, he contracted a terrible typhoid fever. This serious illness almost ruined his life. He has been ill for half a year since the 24th of the twelfth lunar month. Since then, his left leg has been disabled due to illness. When walking, he wants to draw a big circle on his left leg and take a small step on his right leg. He once humorously called this step strange and laborious? Motion of circle and tangent? .
In the face of adversity, he stubbornly fought against fate and vowed: I will replace my unhealthy legs with a sound mind! ? After several years of self-study, Hua began to contribute to magazines. At first, his articles were rejected many times because the problems he wrote had been proved by foreign experts. This has increased Hua's confidence because he has studied these problems himself and has never seen other people's solutions.
1930, Hua published a paper in Science magazine. The reason why the solution of Su Jiaju's algebraic quintic equation could not be established was discovered by Professor Xiong Qinglai, head of the Department of Mathematics of Tsinghua University, which surprised Xiong Qinglai and immediately made a decision. This young man should invite him to Tsinghua! ? At this time, Hua was only 2 1 year old, and he finally left the grocery store? Darkroom, Tsinghua University in Beijing.
The short story of mathematician Hua
Hua likes pairing.
Once I traveled with Qian Sanqiang, Zhao Jiuzhang and others, and China people went out for the first part: Three Wei? I'm sorry, because? Top three? Inscribe Qian Sanqiang. Then Hua himself answered the next link:? Chapter 9 Pythagoras strings? , everyone praised.
Mathematician Hua's short stories are neither admired nor admired.
1936, Hua was 26 years old and was sent to study in Britain by Tsinghua. He studied at the most famous Cambridge University. Hadto, the chief professor of the Department of Mathematics, told Hua that he only needed one year to get his doctorate. He spent a year concentrating on a problem, but Hua said? I came to Cambridge to study, not to get a degree. He gave up his doctorate, studied seven or eight subjects at the same time as a visiting scholar, and wrote 20 papers during his two years in Cambridge. According to the standard, every paper can get a doctorate. He put forward a theory called. Fahrenheit theorem? Improving Hardy's conclusion, Hardy said: Great, my work can't be improved after it is written. I must change it this time! ? China is considered to be? The glory of Cambridge? !
During my two years at Cambridge University, Hua? Hualin problem? Lee and the question? Odd Goldbach problem? He has written 18 papers and published them in magazines in Britain, the Soviet Union, India, France and Germany, among which the famous paper "On the Estimation of Complete Triangle and Gaussian". According to his achievements, he has exceeded the requirements of every academician, but he has never formally applied for a degree in Cambridge. His only diploma is a junior high school diploma.
The short story about mathematician Hua is deeply patriotic.
1938 War of Resistance against Japanese Aggression was in full swing, and the British asked China to stay and teach. He resolutely gave up everything in Britain and returned to the motherland, and went to The National SouthWest Associated University to suffer with his compatriots. Tsinghua University Qualification Committee unanimously approved that only Hua with a junior high school diploma was promoted to a university professor.
/kloc-in the autumn of 0/946, Hua went abroad again because of the domestic white terror. The University of Illinois in the United States hired Huawei as a tenured professor, and gave him a very generous treatment, hoping that he would build it into a world-class algebra research center. From 1950, the news of the liberation of the motherland reached the United States, and China resolutely gave up its generous conditions and returned home with its family.
He devoted his life to the scientific development of the motherland, especially to the study of mathematics. He left us more than 200 academic papers and 65,438+00 monographs in his life, 8 of which were translated and published abroad, and some of them have been included in this century's mathematical masterpieces. He also wrote more than 65,438+00 popular science works. His name has been recorded in the annals of internationally renowned scientists. He is the pride of the scientific community in China and belongs to the Chinese nation.
