International Congress of mathematics

The international congress of mathematics is an organized demonstration every four years by the international mathematical Union.

The congress of 1998 gathered more than three thousand participants. The program consists mainly of conferences given by eminent Mathématicien S of the whole world, selected by the organizers of the congress.

During the congress are given the medals Fields, the Prix Nevanlinna and the Prix Carl-Friedrich-Gauss for mathematics applied (created in 2006).

At the time of the congress of 1900 with Paris, David Hilbert stated a list of twenty three famous open problems in mathematics, known now under the name of Problèmes of Hilbert.

Congress 2006

Fields medal

During the congress of 2006 with Madrid, the Fields medal was decreed with Grigori Perelman for its recent resolution of famous the Conjecture of Poincaré which is one of the seven Problèmes of the Prices of the millénium launched by the Institut of mathematics Clay. Nevertheless this last refused this distinction. The three other prizes winner of the medal Fields 2006 are the French Wendelin Werner, for his work in the field of the probabilities and the Théorie in conformity of the fields, the Australia N Terence CAT, for his work in the fields of the partial derivative equation, of the Combinatoire, the harmonic Analyze and the Théorie of the numbers. The last member elect is the Russian Andrei Okounkov which was rewarded for its work for connection of the Theory of probability with the algebraic Géométrie.

Nevanlinna price

The prize was awarded to Jon Kleinberg which works in the field of the Algorithmique.

Price Gauss

The first member elect of the price is the Japan board Kiyoshi Itô for his work founder in the field of the stochastic Calcul.
