Nothing exciting happened around Christmas. The only thing that made Lu Zhou happy, other than his new fireplace, was a reply from Annual Mathematics.
In the reply, Professor Sahn, the editor-in-chief of Annual Mathematics politely told him that, the two theses he submitted, the Quasi Riemann hypothesis proof and the hyperelliptic curve analysis method, had been published.
Just like they had originally planned, the two theses, which were 51 pages long combined, were going to be published in a special issue.
Since Professor Faltings changed his opinion and the two theses were officially published, the preprints on arXiv began to flood into analytic number theory and complex analysis journals.
Everyone wanted their theses to be reviewed as soon as possible.
They wanted to publish their theses before someone else came up with a better result.
