According to reports, Tao Zhexuan was hired as a professor by UCLA at the age of 24, becoming the youngest professor in the history of the school; 3 1 year-old, won the MacArthur Foundation Genius Award and the Nobel Prize "Fields" Mathematics Award. His achievements in mathematics are obvious to all, but he remains humble and constantly pursues new knowledge. He is also called "Mozart in mathematics".
During his research career, Tao Zhexuan was recognized as a young master in nearly 65,438+00 important mathematical research fields, such as harmonic analysis, partial differential equations, combinatorial mathematics, analytic number theory and arithmetic number theory. These directions are extremely popular growing points in the development of mathematics. In addition, his research field also involves engineering, and he has made a breakthrough in the compression sensing principle of cameras.
Another famous achievement of Tao Zhexuan is that he cooperated with Ben Green to solve a conjecture about "twin prime numbers" put forward by Euclid. This 2300-year mathematical unsolved case strongly attracted his interest. He and his companions even proved that such arithmetic progression segments can even be found in infinite prime numbers. This discovery was named "Green-Tao Theorem".

Celebrities with high IQ in history:
① Evariste Galois: (1811–1832), IQ = 180, French mathematician. Founder of group theory of modern algebra. The problem of solving algebraic equations with roots is completely solved by group theory, and a set of theories about groups and fields is developed, which are called Galois Group and Galois Theory.
The significance of his research achievements in mathematics during his lifetime was not recognized by people. All three academic papers submitted to the Academy of Sciences were returned or lost. Later, he turned to politics, supported the * * * and the party, and was arrested twice. 2 1 year-old, because his father died, his job was rejected, his girlfriend left, and he fought with his girlfriend's fiance, knowing that he would die.
Tell your friends in advance that you are going to die, please keep your math research results. On the first day of the duel, Evariste Galois tried to write down all his arguments and kept writing the word "I don't have time". It took him only one morning before dawn to solve the achievements that mathematicians of all ages could not accomplish for centuries. I went to a duel that morning and died in the duel.
② nathan leopold of Richard Loeb: IQ = 2 10. Leopold is a rich boy in Chicago, with extremely high intelligence. He speaks 15 languages and is an expert in birds. At that time, he was a student of law school and adored Nietzsche's "Superman" theory. On May 2 1924, he and his younger brother Loeb killed a boy (Bobby Frank) who was 14 years old next door in cold blood for no reason.
Just to prove that their intelligence can achieve "perfect murder" without being detected, he 19 years old.
③ Emanuel Sviden Berg Emanuel Sviden Berg: IQ =205. 1688, a child was born in a Christian family in Stockholm, Sweden. He has a mysterious tendency since he was a child. Before he 10, he will talk to the priest about God. After graduating from college, I went to England to study physics and astronomy, and also went to Holland, France and Germany.
He also likes machinery. He studied watchmaking, book binding, carving and grinding lenses. Then he studied cosmology, mathematics, anatomy, economics, metallurgy, geology and chemistry. He is familiar with almost all the knowledge of that era, and his academic achievements far exceed the level of his era, so far he has not been fully understood.
After 50, he gave up everything and started what he called "Apocalypse". His "Tales of the Spiritual World" is eight volumes and thousands of pages thick, which records what he has seen and heard in the "other world" for thirty years.
④ hugo grotius: IQ = 200. Grotius (1583- 1645) is called a child prodigy. 1/Kloc-0 entered Leiden University, 15 studied law at the University of Orleans, France, and 16 returned to the Netherlands.
However, Grotius' success is not limited to this. His works, such as War and Peace Law, Prisoner Law and On Freedom at Sea, comprehensively and systematically expounded the basic principles of modern international law, which made him the founder of modern international law and was praised as the "originator of international law" by the world.
⑤ Aristotle: IQ = 200 Aristotle (384-322), a Chitara native of ancient Greece, was a famous philosopher, scientist and educator. Aristotle was Plato's student and Alexander's teacher. In 335 BC, he established a school in Athens called Lv Keang, called Minstrel.
Marx once called Aristotle the most learned figure among ancient Greek philosophers, and Engels called him ancient Hegel. Aristotle studied hard all his life, and his academic research involved logic, rhetoric, physics, biology, education, psychology, politics, economics, aesthetics and so on. He wrote a lot of works, mainly including instrumentalism, metaphysics, politics, etc.
