You know, these situations are usually very subjective. Because when inspiration strikes suddenly, even I find it difficult to probe what kind of state of thinking he was in at the time. Such cases are numerous, especially on the internet. So it's possible that he misunderstood the meaning of something you wanted to convey."

Qiao Ze nodded and asked, "Will it affect the cooperation plan you've made?"

"Of course not. In fact, Mr. Nadella has already convinced himself; he has even been helping us think of ways to persuade other board members to facilitate this cooperation. He now wants to join this great plan even more than we do."

"Oh, then I'll leave it to you next." Qiao Ze replied, planning not to manage this matter anymore.

Even the subsequent signing is the business of adults. People like Li Jiangao and Su Lixing need to worry about those trivial matters. His main task remains in his academic pursuits.

The next part is the daily dispute session.

By the time Edward Witten and Peter Schultz have argued a result, the intelligent city construction of Xilin should be completed, right?

With this thought in mind, Qiao Ze walked toward the conference room.

Sure enough, before even reaching the door, he heard the sound of arguing from the conference room. It was Edward Witten speaking, his voice sounded quite agitated. Apparently, something Peter Schultz said stabbed the old man's sore spot.

This is quite normal.

Respect the old and cherish the young? That doesn't exist here; everyone fights for the sake of defending the truth. It's just that there's no definitive answer on who actually represents the truth right now.

Qiao Ze could understand; after all, everyone had good intentions.

He knocked on the door twice lightly to show respect, then pushed the door open and walked in directly.

"Qiao, you're just in time; you must help us judge. Look at this calculation process..."

Before the voice had even fallen, Edward Witten briskly thrust a manuscript into Qiao Ze's hand.

Qiao Ze carefully looked at the content of the manuscript; what caught his eye was the derivation process of a convoluted function: m=I(ϕ)=∫Mϕ⋅F(ϕ,g)dμ.

This is a rather special type of convoluted function, M represents a topological manifold. Theoretically, through detailed integration calculations, I(ϕ) can provide precise predictions for the mass of different particles.

Of course, these are theoretically inferential at the moment. On the one hand, there is no unique experimental result that can directly verify the company's predictions, especially for calculations involving heavy particles like the top quark, which lack direct evidence, and there seems to be some deviation from experimental values.

Yet this also relates to the formula being too complex; the actual calculation process requires some assumptions and simplifications, which naturally weakens the reliability of the results, especially as divergence problems can occur.

But most importantly, the formula itself is not fully compatible with mass generation mechanisms.

For example, I(ϕ) relies on a global integral, while the currently still mainstream Higgs Mechanism, which contains quantum mechanisms, relies on the direct coupling of local fields.

Additionally, F(ϕ,g) in I(ϕ) depends on the metric g, whereas the Higgs Mechanism in the Standard Model does not require explicitly considering the impact of spacetime metrics, which introduces a metric dependency issue in the theory.

Today's argument between the two was that Edward Witten believes I(ϕ) is already perfect enough and resources should be applied for verification, but Peter Schultz disagrees, insisting that I(ϕ) still needs further optimization and that premature exposure is highly inappropriate and unmathematical.

In Qiao Ze's view, this is actually quite good.

At least their debate is starting to shift toward detailed issues.

If they argued every day about the feasibility and validity of the grand theory and issues of mathematical ideology, it would be boring.

But at this moment, facing Edward Witten's expectant gaze, Qiao Ze could only regretfully say, "I also feel that special-type functions need further refinement. To verify I(ϕ), I attempted three calculations, but the results diverged twice."

"Two failures? This indicates that at least you succeeded once; perhaps the two failures were due to some error made during simplified calculations. To resolve similar errors, laboratory verifications must be relied upon continuously."

Edward Witten stated forcefully, fully embodying the spirit of never yielding in the face of truth.

Qiao Ze decided to remain silent. Hastily joining this discussion would only make things worse.

"Edward, you have become more and more stubborn lately."

Peter Schultz remarked unceremoniously, then quickly took out paper and pen and likewise began writing a manuscript, muttering, "I just thought of three ways to prove you wrong! But there's no need; I only need to provide one."

For some unknown reason, Peter Schultz's words reminded Qiao Ze of the phrase Satya Nadella had just said.

"I suddenly feel that developing a business doesn't always require addition; perhaps, at Microsoft's current scale, it's time to consider subtraction."

Hmm, the subtraction in business is the contraction of operations, focusing more on the main tracks that have already been determined.

Now, if he were to do subtraction...

At that moment, it was as if a light bulb lit up in Qiao Ze's mind.

Alright, subtraction.

Then the question arises, in the Q-theory, what can be subtracted?

If one were to achieve a Grand Unified Theory, what dimension is not necessary? Moreover, simplifying it can save a huge amount of computation.

His brain automatically ignored the disputes between the two and began calculating one by one.

"Time?! Time!"

"Hmm? What time?" The two almost simultaneously turned their heads to look at Qiao Ze.

"By removing the time dimension, under Q-theory, the spacetime structure will be highly symmetric, with spacetime diluted into a purely spatial dimension structure. This means that all physical laws can be geometrized. Moreover, without time, it signifies that each fundamental particle and interaction can be described by the geometric and topological properties within these multidimensional spaces."

"Hmm? Remove the time dimension?"

"Yes, try thinking about it. If the space we need is discrete or some quantum structure, time isn't a mandatory option. In a high-dimensional gauge group, G=QU(N), the description we need is only the fundamental tools of geometric properties. With the help of high symmetry, the transformation rule will greatly simplify.

For example..."

Saying that, Qiao Ze snatched the paper and pen from Peter Schultz's hand and quickly began writing: Ai→UAiU−1+U∂iU−1;{Q,Qˉ​}=γiPi,δAi=ϵˉγiψ,δψ=σijFijϵ.

"Look, after dimension compactification and high-dimensional gauge field decomposition, if we follow gauge symmetry breaking, then..."

Ai(x,y)→(Aμ(x),ϕ(x));G→H×K.

"Meanwhile, the geometric quantities should satisfy a noncommutative geometric relationship..."

[xi,xj]=iθij

"Thus, the total action S equals..."

S=∫dDx−g(21R−41FijFij+21ψˉ(γiDiψ)+⋯)

...

Edward Witten and Peter Schultz watched silently as Qiao Ze continued to deduce, with more and more content on the manuscript.

Of course, at this moment, it's hard to see those formulas scribbled down casually.

Because Qiao Ze didn't have the time to write down the meaning of each symbol. As everyone knows, the various symbols in mathematics are a highly complex set of systems, where the same symbol often represents entirely different meanings in different theoretical systems.

For instance, the empty set R often represents the set of real numbers in analysis but can also represent the real objects in an algebraic structure in algebraic geometry. The famous Σ signifies the standard deviation in statistics but represents summation in mathematical analysis.

The fallen 8, which is ∞, is recognized by everyone to represent infinity, but this is just the interpretation in calculus, whereas in topology, it could be used to denote a point in a compactified space.

With Q-theory being a new track, such casually composed formulas, if not clearly indicating the objects they represent, are similar to novice programmers disdainful of providing comments and explanations in their coding.

Only oneself and God know the functionality of these codes at the time. If one's memory is a bit weak, then by the next day, God might be the only one able to understand these codes.

It's 2025, who knows how much low-quality code humanity has produced, saved on innumerable servers, colloquially referred to as dung heaps.

Yet at this moment, both felt that what Qiao Ze was writing was undoubtedly a mountain of gold.
