Magdi YACOUB p. 0 - - Simon DONALDSON Section de mathématique Simon Donaldson, né le 0 août au Royaume-Uni, Médaille Fields, est Professeur de mathématique à l’Imperial College à Londres. Ses travaux ont eu une influence considérable sur la géométrie différentielle de ces vingt-cinq dernières années. Ils représentent une contribution fondamentale à l'étude des variétés de dimension quatre et des surfaces complexes, à la géométrie symplectique, et à la théorie de la stabilité des variétés Kählériennes. Simon Donaldson is Professor at Imperial College in London. His work has had a profound influence on differential geometry these last twenty five years. He has produced fundamental contributions to the theory of four dimensional manifolds and of complex surfaces, and more recently to symplectic geometry and to the theory of stability for Kähler manifolds.

Au milieu des années 0, il s'est tourné vers la physique mathématique et a joué un rôle central dans le dialogue entre les mathématiciens et les physiciens théoriciens. C'est aussi à lui qu'est due la première idée d'un ordinateur quantique. Yuri Manin, homme d'une très vaste culture, est un visionnaire dont l'oeuvre a influencé le développement d'une grande partie des mathématiques des quarante dernières années. Yuri Manin is now Professor at Northwestern University, Evanston (USA). He first worked in algebraic geometry and number theory. Among many results, he gave a proof of the functional analogue of Mordell's conjecture. In the mid seventies he started working in mathematical physics and played a central role in the dialog between mathematicians and theoretical physicists. He also came out with the first idea of a quantum computer. Yuri Manin has a very wide culture. He is a man of vision whose work had an influence on a large part of mathematics during the past forty years.

Prix Nobel de physique en 00, il est l'inventeur de méthodes de mesure des fréquences des lasers atteignant une précision de quinze chiffres significatifs. La technique des "peignes de fréquence" qu'il a développée ouvre la voie à des études sur la stabilité dans le temps des constantes de la nature ainsi qu'à la mise au point d'horloges atomiques extrêmement précises susceptibles d'améliorer les performances du système de positionnement global (GPS). Theodor Hänsch, Director of Max Planck Institut für Quantenoptik and Professor at Ludwig- Maximilians-Universität, is a pioneer of high resolution laser spectroscopy and of the manipulation of atoms with light. He has invented methods to measure the frequencies of lasers with an accuracy of fifteen digits. The “frequency comb” technique which he has developed opens the way to studies of the stability of the constants of nature over time, as well as to the development of extremely accurate atomic clocks which could lead to an improved global positioning system.
