Nominations
The Centre de recherches mathématiques (CRM) solicits nominations for the André Aisenstadt Mathematics Prize awarded to recognize talented young Canadian mathematicians. The André Aisenstadt Mathematics Prize, which recognizes outstanding research achievement by a young Canadian mathematician in pure or applied mathematics, consists of a $3,000 award and a medal.
The recipient 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. 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. The recipient is invited to deliver a lecture at CRM, at a time mutually agreed upon, and to write a brief article on his or her work for publication in the CRM’s Bulletin.
Nominations must be submitted by October 1, 2006, to the Director of the CRM, by at least two sponsors who are responsible for providing the following information:
- a curriculum vitae,
- a list of publications,
- a covering letter explaining the basis of the nomination,
- up to four reprints, and 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Unsuccessful nominations remain active for two further years if not withdrawn and if the rule regarding the completion of the Ph.D. within seven years is still satisfied.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.
Since its creation in 1991, the André Aisenstadt Prize has been awarded to: Niky Kamran (McGill), Ian Putnam (Victoria), Michael Ward (UBC), Nigel Higson (Penn State), Adrian S. Lewis (Waterloo), Lisa Jeffrey (Toronto), Henri Darmon (McGill), Boris Khesin (Toronto), John Toth (McGill), Changfeng Gui (Connecticut), Eckhard Meinrenken (Toronto), Jinyi Chen (UBC), Alexander Brudnyi (Calgary), Vinayak Vatsal (UBC), Ravi Vakil (Stanford), Iosif Polterovich (Montréal) and Tai-Peng Tsai (UBC).
