Konferenz: International Congress of Mathematicians 2010 (ICM 2010). Hyderabad, Indien. Internet: International Congress of Mathematicians 2010

Termin: 19. - 27. August 2010


Kurzbeschreibung

The International Congress of Mathematicians (ICM) is the largest congress in the mathematics community. It is held once every four years under the auspices of the International Mathematical Union (IMU). The Fields Medals, the Nevanlinna Prize, and the Gauss Prize are awarded during the congress’ opening ceremony. In the 2010 ICM, a new prize also will be awarded, the Chern Medal Award. Each congress is memorialized by a printed learned Proceedings recording academic papers based on invited talks intended to reflect the current state of the science.
