我想说的是丘不象Perelman那样是个“纯粹”的数学家,总想着让中国数学家在国际上如何出人头地。当然,这样也未见得是坏事,只不过丘做的不是很成功罢了。
至于说丘是嫉妒田在国内的地位,不是文章作者的观点,是“引用”的Joseph Kohn的:
Five months later, Chern died, and Yau’s efforts to insure that he-—not Tian—was recognized as his successor turned vicious. “It’s all about their primacy in China and their leadership among the expatriate Chinese,” Joseph Kohn, a former chairman of the Prince-ton mathematics department, said. “Yau’s not jealous of Tian’s mathematics, but he’s jealous of his power back in China.”
至于是否有断章取义之嫌还不是很清楚。可以参见上面Yush的帖子。
