These opportunities can be realized by organizer teams for the American Mathematical Society’s Mathematics Research Communities (MRC). Through the MRC program, participants form self-sustaining cohorts centered on mathematical research areas of common interest by: • Attending one-week topical conferences in the summer of 2020; • Participating in follow-up activities in the following year and beyond. Details about the MRC program and guidelines for organizer proposal preparation can be found at www.ams.org/programs/research-communities /mrc-proposals-20. The 2020 MRC program is contingent on renewed funding from the National Science Foundation.

  • Yves Meyer Awarded Abel Prize
    COMMUNICATION Yves Meyer Awarded Abel Prize The Norwegian Academy of Science and Letters has awarded the 2017 Abel Prize to Yves Meyer of École Normale Supérieure Paris-Saclay, France, “for his pivotal role in the development of the mathematical theory of wavelets.” The Abel Prize recognizes contributions of extraordinary depth and influence to the mathematical sciences and has been awarded annually since 2003. It carries a cash award of 6,000,000 Norwegian krone (ap- proximately US$715,000). Citation Fourier analysis provides a useful way of decomposing a signal or function into simply-structured pieces such as sine and cosine waves. These pieces have a concentrated frequency spectrum but are very spread out in space. Wavelet analysis provides a way of cutting up functions into pieces that are localized in both frequency and space. Yves Meyer was the visionary leader in the modern devel- opment of this theory, at the intersection of mathematics, information technology, and computational science. The history of wavelets goes back over a hundred years, to an early construction by Alfréd Haar. In the late 1970s the seismologist Jean Morlet analyzed reflection data obtained for oil prospecting and empirically intro- duced a new class of functions, now called “ondelettes” or “wavelets,” obtained by both dilating and translating a fixed function. In the spring of 1985, Yves Meyer recognized that a recovery formula found by Morlet and Alex Grossmann was an identity previously discovered by Alberto Calderón. At that time, Yves Meyer was already a leading figure in Yves Meyer the Calderón–Zygmund theory of singular integral opera- Stéphane Mallat and Yves Meyer then systematically tors.
