Qiu Chengtong is a world-famous mathematician, and also the only winner of Fields Prize in Chinese mathematics in the world. Fields Prize is called the Nobel Prize in mathematics, but it is only awarded to young mathematicians under 40. Although it does not have the nature of a lifetime achievement award, the mathematician who won the Fields Prize must be a mathematician with far-reaching influence. At the 2002 International Congress of Mathematicians, seven Fields Prize winners gathered in Beijing. The following are the profiles of the seven winners. American mathematician Mountford (Mumford, David Bryart, 1937.6-) was born in England. /kloc-He was admitted to Harvard University at the age of 0/6 and stayed there after graduation. He got Phil in Vancouver in 2008+0974. Qiu Chengtong (1949.4-), a Chinese-American mathematician, was born in Guangdong, China. He received his Ph.D. from the University of California, Berkeley in 2004 and later became a tenured professor at Princeton Institute of Advanced Studies. 20038.68646866617 In addition, he also made innovations in high-dimensional Minkowski problem, three-dimensional manifold topology and minimal surface. S Donaldson (Simon, 1957.8 ——), a British mathematician, 1986 won the Fields Prize in Berkeley. When he won the prize, he worked in Oxford University. Main achievements: Research on four-dimensional manifold topology. He discovered four-dimensional geometry. It is concluded that there is a "weird" four-dimensional space, that is, a differential manifold that is topologically homeomorphic to the standard Euclidean space but not differentially homeomorphic. 195 1.2 ——) Japanese mathematician. 1990 won the Fields Medal in Tokyo. He worked in Kyoto Institute of Mathematical Sciences when he won the prize. His main achievement: the classification of three-dimensional algebraic clusters. He established a classification study of three-dimensional algebraic clusters and found some transformations. They only exist in at least three-dimensional space-they are called "f lip", which updates other mathematicians' research on singularities. American mathematicians e witten (Edward, 195 1-) and 1990 won the fields prize in Tokyo. He won the prize at the Institute for Advanced Studies in Princeton. Major achievements; String theory. He has made great contributions to the superstring theory, and it is entirely possible to make a unified mathematical treatment between relativity, quantum mechanics and particle interaction (this is Einstein's dream for most of his life). He proved that the state space is two-dimensional in all cases of Chen Shengsheng-Simmons theory. Yoccoz, Jeanchristophe, 1957 ——) French mathematician. 1994 won the Fields Medal in Zurich, Switzerland. When he won the prize, he was a professor at the University of Nantucket in Paris and a member of the Institute of French Universities. Main achievements: He combined the quasi-periodic situation and hyperbolic situation of complex dynamic systems, thus making profound achievements on the characteristics and classification of more general complex dynamic systems. It greatly promotes the development of power system. British mathematician W·T· Gals (W Timothy, 1963 ——) won the Fields Prize in Berlin in 1998. He worked at Cambridge University when he won the prize. His main achievements are: Banach space theory and combinatorics. He widely used the method of combinatorics and used it in infinite dimensions. Attract the attention of peers. He also took the lead in discovering and overthrowing the "hyperplane conjecture" put forward by the Polish mathematician Barnach in the 1920s-infinite dimensional space and its hyperplane are not necessarily isomorphic.
