1998 Fields Medal Fields Medal

William Timothy Gowers has provided important contributions tofunctional analysis, making extensive use of methods fromcombination theory. These two fields apparently have little to do with each other, and a significant achievement of Gowers has been to combine these fruitfully.

Bourgain's work touches on several central topics of mathematical analysis: the geometry ofBanach spaces, convexity in high dimensions,harmonic analysis,ergodic theory, and finally, nonlinearpartial differential equationsfrommathematical physics.

Jean Bourgain, 1954年 - 2018年)

1994 Fields Medal Fields Medal

... such nonlinearpartial differential equationsimply do not have smooth or even C1 solutions existing after short times. ... The only option is therefore to search for some kind of "weak" solution. This undertaking is in effect to figure out how to allow for certain kinds of "physically correct" singularities and how to forbid others. ... Lions and Crandall at last broke open the problem by focusing attention onviscosity solutions, which are defined in terms of certain inequalities holding wherever the graph of the solution is touched on one side or the other by a smoothtest function
