<b>Call for nominations for the Fourth Stephen Smale Prize</b><br
class="">
</div>
<div class=""><br class="">
The fourth Stephen Smale Prize will be awarded at the
Foundations of Computational Mathematics (FoCM) meeting in
Vancouver, Canada, June 15-24, 2020. The goal of the Smale Prize
is to recognize major achievements in furthering the
understanding of the connections between mathematics and
computation, including the interfaces between pure and applied
mathematics, numerical analysis, and computer science. To be
eligible for the prize a candidate must be in his or her early
to mid-career, meaning, typically, removed by at most ten years
from his or her (first) doctoral degree by the first day of the
FoCM meeting (June 15, 2020). Eligible candidates should be
nominated by email to the secretary of FoCM, Michael Singer, <a
href="mailto:singer@ncsu.edu" target="_blank" class="">singer@ncsu.edu</a>,
no later than September 15, 2019. Each nomination
(self-nominations excluded) should be accompanied by a brief
supporting letter, the nominee's CV and include at least three
letters of recommendation. The recipient of the prize will be
expected to give a lecture at the meeting. A written version of
this lecture (tagged as the Smale Prize Lecture) will be
included in the volume of plenary talks. For more information,
