For the first time in the history of science the most prestigious award in mathematics received a woman. A native of Iran Maryam Mirzakhanov was awarded the Fields Medal for his achievements in the field of mathematics. Award, which put on a par with the Nobel, Miriam received for studying the geometry of the surface, based on the theory of classical quantum Teichmüller spaces. We have a prize money equivalent to 14 thousand dollars, but unless money is important? Peer recognition – the most precious, and what says the fair sex has received the award.
By the way, the same prize was awarded to Russian Grigory Perelman, who decided to give it up, what caused a stir in the international scientific community. Perelman the Fields Institute tried to award in 2011 for solving the Poincare conjecture.
