GS Japanese won the Gauss Math Prize

Japanese math professor Kiyoshi Ito was honored to become the first mathematician to receive the Gauss Prize in the field of applied mathematics.

This year, 90 years old, the honorary professor of Kyoto University is the author of research on differential equations which has been widely applied by scientists in fields such as finance, biology, and mechanics. and physics.

He published this work since 1942 while working for the Japanese government's Bureau of Statistics. 'I am honored to receive this award for my research. I want to share the joy with my colleagues who have worked with me in this study, 'Ito said.

The International Mathematical Committee will coordinate with the German Mathematical Commission to award medals and prizes worth € 10,000 to Ito during a ceremony on September 14 at Kyoto University.

The Gauss Prize was founded in 2002 to commemorate the German mathematician Carl Friedllch Gauss (1777-1855) because his research works effectively in many fields, especially astronomy and physics. . The award is awarded every four years for those with outstanding achievements in the field of applied mathematics.
