The Prize

The Centre de recherches mathématiques (CRM) solicits yearly nominations for the André-Aisenstadt Mathematics Prize awarded to recognize talented young Canadian mathematicians. The Prize, which is given for research achievement in pure and applied mathematics, consists of a $ 3 000 award and a medal.

Eligibility, criterion and continuity

At the time of consideration, candidates must be Canadian citizens or permanent residents of Canada, and no more than seven years from their Ph.D.

Nominations must be submitted by October 1 to the Director of the CRM, by at least two sponsors who are responsible for providing the following information:

• a curriculum vitae
• a publication list
• a cover letter explaining the basis of the nomination
• up to four reprints
• a maximum of four letters of support

Unsuccessful nominations remain active for two further years if not withdrawn and if the rule regarding the completion of the Ph.D. within seven years is still satisfied. The nominations can be updated if desired.

The laureate is invited to deliver a lecture at CRM, at a time mutually agreed upon. Also, a brief description of the work is to be prepared by the recipient for publication in the CRM Bulletin.

Advisory Committee

The laureate is chosen by CRM’s scientific advisory committee. The Prize is generally awarded yearly, although in a given year the decision may be made not to award it.

Prize is announced in November.
