The Extraordinary Theorems of John Nash - with Cédric Villani
Δημοσιεύτηκε στις 2 Νοε 2016
Fields
medal winner Cédric Villani takes us through the very special world of
mathematical creation of John Nash, who founded several new chapters of
game theory and geometric analysis in just a few revolutionary
contributions that seemed to come from nowhere.

On
23 May 2015, John Forbes Nash tragically died in a taxi accident, just
after receiving the most prestigious award that a mathematician can
dream of, the Abel Prize. This tragic episode was the last event in a
life which was so full of amazing events that Nash became an icon of
human genius, recipient of the Nobel Prize and hero of a Hollywood movie
looking at his life marked by mental illness.
But most of all,
Nash was a prophet who founded several new chapters of game theory and
geometric analysis in just a few revolutionary contributions that seemed
to come from nowhere. Fields medal winner, Cédric Villani takes us
through this very special world of mathematical creation.
Cédric
Villani is a French mathematician who works primarily on partial
differential equations, Riemannian geometry and mathematical physics. He
was awarded the prestigious Fields Medal in 2010 – an award often
viewed as the highest honour a mathematician can receive.
He is a member of the Science and Technology Advisory Council and DIrector of the Institut Henri Poincaré.
