Abel Prize

The Abel Prize is a prestigious international award given annually by the Norwegian Academy of Science and Letters to recognize outstanding achievements in mathematics. Established in 2002, it honors mathematicians who have made significant contributions that deepen our understanding of the field. The prize highlights groundbreaking research, innovative ideas, and lasting impact on science and society. Often compared to the Nobel Prize (which does not have a category for math), the Abel Prize celebrates the beauty and importance of mathematical discovery, inspiring future generations of mathematicians and advancing knowledge worldwide.
