Yitang Zhang was not well-known to specialists in number theory before his <br>
fantastic paper on prime numbers was recognized by the Annals of Mathematics<br>
three weeks ago. But he possessed the knowledge of the most sophisticated <br>
areas of analytic number theory, and he could use it all with ease. Also, he<br>
was able to make a breakthrough where many investigators were stuck, not <br>
because something little was overlooked, but because of new, clever <br>
arrangements which he introduced and brilliantly executed. You could sense <br>
immediately that the work had a great chance to be fine by looking at the <br>
clear and logical architecture of the arguments. It does not mean the paper <br>
is simple or elementary. To the contrary, the work of Zhang constitutes the <br>
state-of-the art of analytic number theory. It also borrows gracefully from <br>
other areas, for example, it makes use indirectly of the Riemann hypothesis <br>
for varieties over finite field. Zhang's work will trigger a lasting <br>
avalanche of refinements and improvements with many innovations. Overnight <br>
Zhang redirected the focus of analytic number theory. How long do we need to<br>
wait to see what comes next?
Visit 38, if you can't understand, it is your problem, this is what the editor has to say about his work: 'Written with crystalline clarity and a total command of the topic’s current state of the art, it was evidently a serious piece of work, and the Annals editors decided to put it on the fast track. ' Fortunately, the ultimate fate of his paper is not up to you.
