The Norwegian Government created the Abel Prize for outstanding achievements in Mathematics in 2002, at the Bicentennial commemoration of the famous Norwegian mathematician Niels Henrik Abel. The Norwegian Academy has been granting it every year since 2003, and it represents the equivalent in Mathematics to the Nobel Prize awarded in other sciences. The first Abel Prize laureate was Jean-Pierre Serre. Abel Prize laureates list. Luis is a professor at the Univ. of Texas at Austin and was previously a professor in Minnesota, Chicago, Princeton (IAS) and New York (Courant Inst.). Luis is the first Latin-American prize-winner and the first Spanish-speaking one. He is a DHC for the Univ. Autónoma of Madrid and a foreign academician of the Royal Academy of Sciences of Spain.

Louis Nirenberg dies in New York (26 January 2020). A great
master of Analysis in the 20th century, he received the Abel Medal along
with John Nash in 2015. A quiet wise man, he was noted for the depth of
his results, the elegance of his writing, and the sympathy that won him
friends all over the world. My article appeared on 28 Jan 2020 in the
daily newspaper La Nueva España de Oviedo. Article

curious observer
Galileo
Galilei, one of the founding fathers of the common house of science,
who was a mathematician and an experimenter at the same time, wrote in favor of clarity in
science in his dialogues, like “Dialogo sopra i due
massimi sistemi del mondo”.
This is to be remembered in the present times where
mathematics is still flooded with abstruse theories expressed in
impossible language. According to Galileo, the wise scholar must be occupied above all with being understood, d’altro più non si cura fuorché d’essere inteso. Aristotle,
one of the great minds of Antiquity and founder of the
Lyceum, recommended: before teaching something, you should know it
yourself.
