  • Millennium Prize for the Poincaré
    FOR IMMEDIATE RELEASE • March 18, 2010 Press contact: James Carlson: [email protected]; 617-852-7490 See also the Clay Mathematics Institute website: • The Poincaré conjecture and Dr. Perelmanʼs work: http://www.claymath.org/poincare • The Millennium Prizes: http://www.claymath.org/millennium/ • Full text: http://www.claymath.org/poincare/millenniumprize.pdf First Clay Mathematics Institute Millennium Prize Announced Today Prize for Resolution of the Poincaré Conjecture a Awarded to Dr. Grigoriy Perelman The Clay Mathematics Institute (CMI) announces today that Dr. Grigoriy Perelman of St. Petersburg, Russia, is the recipient of the Millennium Prize for resolution of the Poincaré conjecture. The citation for the award reads: The Clay Mathematics Institute hereby awards the Millennium Prize for resolution of the Poincaré conjecture to Grigoriy Perelman. The Poincaré conjecture is one of the seven Millennium Prize Problems established by CMI in 2000. The Prizes were conceived to record some of the most difficult problems with which mathematicians were grappling at the turn of the second millennium; to elevate in the consciousness of the general public the fact that in mathematics, the frontier is still open and abounds in important unsolved problems; to emphasize the importance of working towards a solution of the deepest, most difficult problems; and to recognize achievement in mathematics of historical magnitude. The award of the Millennium Prize to Dr. Perelman was made in accord with their governing rules: recommendation first by a Special Advisory Committee (Simon Donaldson, David Gabai, Mikhail Gromov, Terence Tao, and Andrew Wiles), then by the CMI Scientific Advisory Board (James Carlson, Simon Donaldson, Gregory Margulis, Richard Melrose, Yum-Tong Siu, and Andrew Wiles), with final decision by the Board of Directors (Landon T.

Congratulations to Raman Parimala, Emory University, who will present the AWM Noether Lecture at JMM 2013, entitled “A Hasse Principle for Quadratic Forms over Function Fields.” She is honored for her groundbreaking research in theory of quadratic forms, hermitian forms, linear algebraic groups, and Galois cohomology. The Noether Lecture is the oldest of the three named AWM Lectures. (The Falconer Lecture is presented at MathFest, and the Sonia Kovalevsky at the SIAM Annual Meeting.) The first Noether Lecture was given by F. Jessie MacWilliams in 1980 in recognition of her fundamental contributions to the theory of error correcting codes.

  • Stability of Tangent Bundles of Complete Intersections and Effective
    STABILITY OF TANGENT BUNDLES OF COMPLETE INTERSECTIONS AND EFFECTIVE RESTRICTION JIE LIU ABSTRACT. For n ≥ 3, let M be an (n + r)-dimensional irreducible Hermitian symmetric space of compact type and let OM(1) be the ample generator of Pic(M). Let Y = H1 ∩···∩ Hr be a smooth complete intersection of dimension n where Hi ∈ |OM(di)| with di ≥ 2. We prove a vanishing theorem for twisted holomor- phic forms on Y. As an application, we show that the tangent bundle TY of Y is stable. Moreover, if X is a smooth hypersurface of degree d in Y such that the restriction Pic(Y) → Pic(X) is surjective, we establish some effective results for d to guarantee the stability of the restriction TY|X. In particular, if Y is a general n+1 hypersurface in P and X is general smooth divisor in Y, we show that TY|X is stable except for some well-known examples. We also address the cases where the Picard group increases by restriction. CONTENTS 1. Introduction 1 2. Hermitian symmetric spaces and Lefschetz properties 5 3.

INTRODUCTION arXiv:1711.03413v3 [math.AG] 22 Oct 2018 It has been one of main problems in K¨ahler geometry to study which Fano manifolds with b2 = 1 admit a K¨ahler-Einstein metric. The celebrated Yau-Tian- Donaldson conjecture asserts that a Fano manifold admits a K¨ahler-Einstein met- ric if and only if it is K-polystable.
