Fields Prize is an international mathematics prize established at the request of john charles fields, a Canadian mathematician. It was first awarded in 1936. There is no mathematics prize in the famous Nobel Prize. The Fields Prize is one of the highest international prizes in the field of mathematics, so it is also called the Nobel Prize in the field of mathematics.

The Fields Prize is awarded under strict conditions and is regarded as the highest honor in mathematics. No more than 4 scientists who have made outstanding contributions in the field of mathematics are awarded each year, and each winner must be under 40 years old. Therefore, the prize is usually awarded to young mathematicians who have not yet enjoyed a high reputation in the academic world, and their achievements in the field of mathematical research are worthy of recognition.

The selection and award of Fields Prize is the responsibility of the International Mathematical Union (IMU). Every year, scholars and researchers from all over the world participate in the selection, and the final selection and decision are made by a Committee composed of representatives of IMU member States. The selection process is strict and transparent to ensure that the winners' achievements are fairly recognized.

The Fields Medal is not very high.

However, its honor and reputation can bring great encouragement and opportunities to the winners. Scientists who win the Fields Prize usually get more attention and research opportunities, thus further promoting the development of mathematics.

Besides Fields Prize, there are many other important international prizes in the field of mathematics, such as Abel Prize, Gauss Prize and Chen Shengshen Prize. The establishment of these awards aims at recognizing outstanding contributions and achievements in the field of mathematics, promoting the in-depth development of mathematical research and attracting more people to engage in mathematical research and application.
