CMI at 20
Date: 24 - 26 September 2018
Location: Mathematical Institute, University of Oxford
Event type: Clay Research Conference
Organisers: Ivan Corwin (Columbia), Andrei Okounkov (Columbia), Terence Tao (UCLA), Andrew Wiles (Oxford), Nick Woodhouse (CMI)
The Clay Mathematics Institute grew out of Landon T. Clay’s longstanding belief in the centrality of mathematical knowledge to human progress, culture, and intellectual life. Founded twenty years ago, it came into existence with its incorporation in the USA on September 25, 1998 .
To celebrate its many contributions to the international mathematics community over two decades, CMI will hold a special conference highlighting the outstanding achievements of its research fellows, award winners, and others whom it has supported.
