Zhang, Yitang’s life at Purdue (Jan 1985-1991) T.T.Moh - https://www.math.purdue.edu/~ttm/ZhangYt.pdf
kind of a wild document to exist...
The world doesn’t need advisors like Moh that are bitter enough to gossip about a family funeral.
The document says more about the kind of advisor Moh was than the kind of mathematician Zhang is.
Interestingly: "For logic proof, it had been thought that AI could handle all logic problems in the near future, hence logic problems of solving conjectures might not be so interesting in the future."
This doc is insane.
Moh repeatedly:
calls Zhang’s words “fake” and his claim “a lie”;
speculates, without demonstrating it, that Zhang “fooled” professors to get admitted;
says Zhang “failed miserably” and “wasted seven years of his own life and my time”;
alleges that Zhang “wanted to be famous all the time”;
publishes an irrelevant and humiliating story about Zhang not attending his father’s funeral;
says he would not touch Zhang “with a five feet pole”;
repeatedly emphasizes his own generosity, influence, mathematical work and supposed sacrifices.
