Geordie Williamson of the Max Planck Institute for Mathematics in Bonn, Germany, will receive the inaugural AMS Claude Chevalley Prize in Lie Theory. Williamson is honored "for his work on the ...

We present a proof for certain cases of the noncommutative Borsuk-Ulam conjectures proposed by Baum, Dabrowski, and Hajac. When a unital C*-algebra A admits a free action of ℤ/kℤ, k ≥ 2, there is no ...

Pierre Deligne netted the prize, one oft he most prestigious in mathematics and worth about $1 million, for proving a deep conjecture about algebraic geometry which has helped to transform number ...

2013 Abel Prize goes to Belgian Pierre Deligne, who proved a deep conjecture about algebra and geometry. It has been four decades since Belgian mathematician Pierre Deligne made his most celebrated ...
