> The Fields Medal, first awarded in 1936, is considered by the mathematical community as the Nobel Prize of Mathematics. Since 2012, the Fields Institute has hosted the annual Fields Medal Symposium <https://utoronto.us15.list-manage.com/track/click?u=409ac47d10fe3e0ce401c4ea5&id=cff9c3cb6a&e=c5e37e81c8> to celebrate the achievements of a recent Fields medallist.

> The Public Opening <https://utoronto.us15.list-manage.com/track/click?u=409ac47d10fe3e0ce401c4ea5&id=20f2565aec&e=c5e37e81c8> kicks off the Symposium. It aims to help demystify the medallist’s area of research and to provide an opportunity for the general public to enjoy, learn from and be inspired by the “rock stars” of mathematics.

> "COVID" live: Megumi Harada interviews Peter Scholze directly from the Fields Institute while Peter is in Cologne, Germany.
> At 24, Peter Scholze became the youngest full professor in Germany when he took up a teaching post at the University of Bonn. He was awarded the Fields Medal in 2018 at the age of 29, making him one of the youngest medallists in the history of the award.
> Scholze’s research has great range, but his work has had particular impact on arithmetic geometry and its applications. He first gained notice as a graduate student for finding proofs to several fundamental theorems in more compact form. His PhD thesis on perfectoid spaces, which he created as a unifying concept, solidified his reputation as “a rare talent that only emerges every few decades.”
> 
> Recently, Scholze has been in the news for his astonishing result <https://utoronto.us15.list-manage.com/track/click?u=409ac47d10fe3e0ce401c4ea5&id=7cebeb2f1c&e=c5e37e81c8> that established real functional analysis still works if you replace topological spaces with condensed sets, a proof he developed in less than a week. Join us for what promises to be an illuminating program of mathematical discovery.

> In this Public Opening, Jared Weinstein (Boston University) will deliver an introduction to Scholze's work, followed by a one-on-one interview with Megumi Harada (McMaster University) and a panel of distinguished mathematicians discussing his greatest contributions.
