This is my laudation for Scholze's Fields medal 2018.

Andrei Okounkov received the Fields Medal at the ICM 2006 in Madrid "for his contributions bridging probability, representation theory and algebraic geometry". This is a brief account of his work.

We give a brief account of some of the most spectacular results established by James Maynard for which he has been awarded the Fields Medal.

This article was written on the occasion of Hans Grauert receiving the Cantor Medallion of the Deutsche Mathematische Vereinigung. It is a brief overview of his mathematical contributions and attempts to convey the author's great respect…

Laurent Lafforgue has been awarded the Fields Medal for his proof of the Langlands correspondence for the full linear groups $\mathop{\rm GL}\nolimits_{r}$ ($r\geq 1$) over function fields. This article is a brief introduction to the…

This is a report on the work of Robert Langlands, following his award of the Abel Prize in 2018. It includes his contributions to the general areas of Representation Theory, Automorphic Forms, Number Theory and Arithmetic Geometry. We have…

The International Congress of Mathematicians (ICM), inaugurated in 1897, is the greatest effort of the mathematical community to strengthen international communication and connections across all mathematical fields. Meetings of the ICM have…

The Fields Medal, often referred as the Nobel Prize of mathematics, is awarded to no more than four mathematician under the age of 40, every four years. In recent years, its conferral has come under scrutiny of math historians, for…

We give an overview of several of the mathematical works of Gilles Lachaud and provide a historical context. This is interspersed with some personal anecdotes highlighting many facets of his personality.

This article is an account of the scientific work of Hugo Duminil-Copin at the time of his award in 2022 of the Fields Medal "for solving longstanding problems in the probabilistic theory of phase transitions in statistical physics,…

The past decade has seen tremendous progress in our understanding of the behaviour of many probabilistic models at or near their "critical point". On the 5th of July 2022, Hugo Duminil-Copin was awarded the Fields medal for the crucial role…

In August 2010, Ngo Bao Chau was awarded a Fields Medal for his deep work relating the Hitchin fibration to the Arthur-Selberg trace formula, and in particular for his proof of the Fundamental Lemma for Lie algebras. This article gives a…

This expository paper features a few highlights of Richard Stanley's extensive work in Ehrhart theory, the study of integer-point enumeration in rational polyhedra. We include results from the recent literature building on Stanley's work,…

A small and unsystematic selection of my favorite appearances of mathematicians and mathematics in German literature. It includes classic and romantic (Lessing, Goethe, Wezel, F. Schlegel, Kleist, Novalis, Grillparzer, Heine), modern…

This text is based on an invited talk at the Dedekind Symposium at Braunschweig in October 2016. It summarizes views from my recent commented edition of Dedekinds two books on the foundations of mathematics.

This article, dedicated, with admiration to Reuben Hersh, for his forthcoming 90th birthday, argues that mathematics today is not yet a science, but that it is high time that it should become one.

This note is written for a book dedicated to outstanding St-Petersburg mathematicians and timed to the ICM-2022 in St-Petersburg. In accordance with the plan of ICM-organizers, we try to tell about one of the most prominent Rokhlin's…

Review of the two volume set "The Quantum Theory of Fields" by S. Weinberg is presented.

This is an exposition of the contributions of L\'aszl\'o Lov\'asz to mathematics and computer science written on the occasion of the bestowal of the Abel Prize~2021 to him. Our survey, of course, cannot be exhaustive. We sketch remarkable…

This is a short survey article written for the Erd\H{o}s centennial conference in Budapest in 2013. The main two topics covered are Szemer\'edi's theorem and its ramifications, and the Erd\H{o}s discrepancy problem. There is an emphasis on…
