No matter whether this application gets approved or not, the courage to write it has already surpassed 99% of mathematicians.
I didn't plan on its approval, so when filling in the team members, I was even more casual. I included everyone who could make a contribution. To be honest, it's not very meaningful, but it can help the rest of the team get familiar.
For example, Xue Song.
Unless you're a mathematician specializing in elementary number theory or specifically in Diophantus, you might not have heard of this name.
But appearing on such application materials can leave some impressions on the panel of experts, and they're very positive ones.
Xue Song appeared in Qiao Yu's application project team before. Last time, I didn't approve Qiao Yu, but the project actually succeeded. Xue Song shouldn't be underestimated.
Then next time Xue Song applies for a project, this name might trigger some memories, and then it might easily get approved...
