Symposium 'The basic principle of the Langlands program' focuses on Professor Ngo Bao Chau's work and the current and long-term effects of the project. The purpose of the conference is to help mathematicians in particular and public opinion in general better understand the isomorphic forms and the Langlands program, as well as introduce recent developments, summarize the latest achievements in the field. areas related to Professor Ngo Bao Chau's work.

The conference was aimed at the masses, including students and mathematicians from other fields of research with Professor Ngo Bao Chau and scientists whose mathematics played an important role in research. their.

The opening ceremony of the Symposium of Prof. Ngo Bao Chau honors took place solemnly on October 15, with the participation of the President of the International Math Union, Ms. Ingrid Daubechies, Vietnamese Ambassador to Canada Le Sy Vuong Ha, Minister of Training, College and Ontario Provincial University Glen Murray, Liberal leader Bob Rae, Director of the Edward Bierstone Fields Institute, famous mathematician James Arthur of the University of Toronto, around the same time 300 guests.

Speaking at the opening ceremony, Ambassador Le Sy Vuong Ha praised the contributions of Canada in general, Fields Institute and Fields Medal in particular in the field of mathematics and development of the world. The Ambassador was very proud to be present at a conference to honor Professor Ngo Bao Chau, who made great contributions to the cause of education and mathematical research in Vietnam.

Ambassador Le Sy Vuong Ha hoped that Professor Ngo Bao Chau's Fields Medal and Professor's holding a symposium to honor the Fields Institute would be another friendship bridge between Canada and Vietnam, when The two countries are aiming to celebrate the 40th anniversary of diplomatic relations in 2013.

In an interview with reporters, Professor Ngo Bao Chau emphasized the contributions of young intellectuals to the country when Vietnam is now an agricultural country, desperately in need of knowledge, knowledge of science and technology to develop the country. Young intellectuals, especially those with the opportunity to acquire the latest scientific and technological knowledge abroad, can contribute greatly to the cause of national construction.

According to Professor Ngo Bao Chau, not everyone has the ability to win Nobel or Fields prizes, but anyone can live to make their lives meaningful.

The Fields Institute is an international math research center of the University of Toronto, founded in 1992. The Institute is named after mathematician John Charles Fields of the University of Toronto, the founder of the Fields Medal in the field of mathematics, was See the Nobel Prize for mathematics. The Fields Medal began to be awarded by the International Math Union from 1936, every four years.

This year's symposium is part of the Fields Institute's 20th anniversary program and is the first conference that the institute expects to organize every year to honor and introduce mathematicians who have won the Fields Medal. here.
