médaille Fields 1986 : lauréats

Destinataires

1. Simon Donaldson

   Mathématiques

   Received medal primarily for his work on topology of four-manifolds, especially for showing that there is a differential structure on Euclidean four-space which is different from the usual structure.

2. Gerd Faltings

   Mathématiques

   Using methods of arithmetic algebraic geometry, he received medal primarily for his proof of the Mordell Conjecture.

3. Michael H. Freedman

   Mathématiques

   Developed new methods for topological analysis of four-manifolds. One of his results is a proof of the four-dimensional Poincaré Conjecture.
