John nash (June 1928, June13—May 23, 2065, 438+05), a famous economist, was the prototype of the hero in A Beautiful Mind. He was a teaching assistant at MIT and later a professor of mathematics at Princeton University. His main research interests are game theory, differential geometry and partial differential equations.

Because he and two other mathematicians made pioneering contributions to the equilibrium analysis theory of non-cooperative games, they had a great influence on game theory and economics, and won the Nobel Prize in Economics from 65438 to 0994.

John nash once interrupted his research because of schizophrenia. Fortunately, his wife, Ai Hilia, accompanied him for many years. Under the careful care of his wife, john nash gradually recovered. John nash expressed his gratitude to his wife at the Nobel Prize ceremony.
