2024. 07. 18.
Péter Pál Pach was recognised for his achievements in combinatorics. Most winners represent some of the world's most prestigious universities.
Péter Pach Pál, Senior Research Fellow at the Department of Computer Science and Information Theory at BME VIK, has received the prestigious Frontiers of Science Award (FSA). He received the award at the International Congress of Basic Sciences (ICBS) at the Beijing Institute of Mathematical Sciences and Applications (BIMSA) campus for his 2016 paper with Ernie Croot (Georgia Institute of Technology) and Vsevolod Lev (University of Haifa).
It's worth scrolling through the list to see where this year's winners work:
BME is listed alongside Princeton, MIT, Harvard, Oxford and Cambridge, as well as major Chinese universities.
The only other regional representative on the list is the University of Grodno in Belarus.
The FSA is awarded to the most outstanding articles in certain fields of mathematics, computer science and physics over the previous ten years. The BME researcher was honoured in the combinatorics section. The 7-member scientific organising committee of the ICBS conference includes Shing-Tung Yau (chair of the committee) and Caucher Birkar, both Fields Prize-winning mathematicians.
