发帖数: 349 | 1 Six Oxford Mathematicians win LMS prizes
Six Oxford Mathematicians are among the 2015 London Mathematical Society
prizewinners.
A Polya Prize was awarded to Professor Boris Zilber for his visionary
contributions to model theory and its applications.
A Naylor Prize and Lectureship in Applied Mathematics was awarded to
Professor Jon Chapman (pictured) for his outstanding contributions to
modelling and methods development in applied mathematics.
Whitehead Prizes were awarded to the following:
Professor Peter Keevash for his work in combinatorics, in particular his
stunning proof of the existence of combinatorial designs for all parameters
satisfying the obvious necessary conditions,
James Maynard for his spectacular results on gaps between prime numbers. He
simplified and extended the work of Zhang on bounded gaps between primes,
then made the most substantial advance on how large the gap between
consecutive primes can be for 75 years, in particular answering a 10,000
dollar conjecture of Erdos.
