Timeline

1933

Chen Jingrun (22 May 1933 – 19 March 1996), also known as Jing-Run Chen, was a Chinese mathematician who made significant contributions to number theory, including Chen's theorem and the Chen prime.

Chen was the third son in a large family from Fuzhou, Fujian, China.

His father was a postal worker.

1953

Chen Jingrun graduated from the Mathematics Department of Xiamen University in 1953.

His advisor at the Chinese Academy of Sciences was Hua Luogeng.

His work on the twin prime conjecture, Waring's problem, Goldbach's conjecture and Legendre's conjecture led to progress in analytic number theory.

1966

In a 1966 paper he proved what is now called Chen's theorem: every sufficiently large even number can be written as the sum of a prime and a semiprime (the product of two primes) – e.g., 100 = 23 + 7·11.

1970

Despite being persecuted during the Cultural Revolution, he expanded his proof in the 1970s.

After the end of the Cultural Revolution, Xu Chi wrote a biography of Chen entitled Goldbach's Conjecture (哥德巴赫猜想).

1978

First published in People's Literature in January 1978, it was reprinted on the People's Daily a month later and became a national sensation.

Chen became a household name in China and received a sackful of love letters from all over the country within two months.

1996

Chen died of complications of pneumonia on March 19, 1996, at the age of 63 years.

The asteroid 7681 Chenjingrun, discovered in 1996, was named after him.

1999

In 1999, China issued an 80-cent postage stamp, titled The Best Result of Goldbach Conjecture, with a silhouette of Chen and the inequality:

Several statues in China have been built in memory of Chen.

At Xiamen University, the names of Chen and four other mathematicians — Peter Gustav Lejeune Dirichlet, Matti Jutila, Yuri Linnik, and Pan Chengdong — are inscribed in the marble slab behind Chen's statue (see image).
