Fields Prize is an international mathematics prize established at the request of Canadian mathematician john charles fields, which was first awarded in 1936. Because there is no mathematics prize in the Nobel Prize, the Fields Prize is often regarded as the Nobel Prize in mathematics.

2. Wolf Prize

Wolf prize in mathematics is an award of the Wolff Prize, and the Fields Prize is regarded as the highest honor in mathematics. China people who won this award are Chen Shengshen and Qiu Chengtong. Since the Fields Prize is only awarded to young mathematicians under 40, there is no possibility for older mathematicians to win the prize.

3. Abel Prize

Abel Prize is a mathematics prize established in Norway. It is issued once a year. 200 1 In order to commemorate the bicentennial birthday of Niels Henrik Abel, a famous Norwegian mathematician, in 2002, the Norwegian government announced that it would start awarding such awards. Since 2003, a committee composed of five mathematicians from the Norwegian Institute of Natural Sciences and Arts has been responsible for announcing the winners.

The prize money is roughly equivalent to the Nobel Prize. One of the reasons for setting up this award is that the Nobel Prize has no math prize. Expanding the influence of mathematics and attracting young people to engage in mathematical research is the main purpose of establishing the Abel Prize.

In the United States, the American Mathematical Society has set up two awards: one is the boekhoff Prize for Applied Mathematics, which was founded by the American Mathematical Society and the Society of Industrial and Applied Mathematics in 1967; The other is the Wiener Prize for Applied Mathematics established in memory of Professor N Wiener, 1967. The prize was donated by the Mathematics Department of Massachusetts Institute of Technology with a total amount of $2,000.
