Is olympiad equivalent to the level of doctoral students in mathematics department?
It is equivalent to the level of doctoral students in the Department of Mathematics. 1. Compared with ordinary doctoral graduates and even doctoral graduates from elite colleges, IMO high-scoring players are very strong and overwhelmingly higher than them in the ability to produce cutting-edge mathematical knowledge.

2. The conditional probability of an IMO gold medal winner becoming a Fields Prize winner is two orders of magnitude higher than the corresponding probability of doctoral graduates trained by the top ten universities' mathematics training programs.

3. Mi Erzha Mirzakhani, who died young, was the gold medal winner of IMO and the first woman to win the Fields Prize (the most prestigious mathematics prize). Tao Zhexuan won a gold medal at the 29th International Maritime Organization, and then won the Fields Medal. He is one of the most prolific mathematicians in the world. (When the author wrote this article, these two mathematicians were American hot search-editor's note)

4. About 22% IMO participants have a doctorate in mathematics; About one-third of these people are doctors in mathematics from the top ten universities (about 7% of the total number of IMO participants). Among IMO participants, 65,438+0% became the reporters of International Mathematical Union (IMC), and 0.2% became the winners of Fields Prize.

This research paper clearly expounds the contribution of IMO participants to the field of mathematics. This paper gives a strong reason to encourage everyone to take part in the math contest from primary school to university, because the problem-solving skills gained by participating in the math contest have a long-term positive impact on your career and academic research.
