The Henri Poincaré Prize
sponsored by the
Daniel Iagolnitzer Foundation

mathematical physics, and contributions which lay the groundwork for
novel developments in this broad field.
The Prize is also created to recognize and support young people of
exceptional promise who have already made outstanding contributions to
the field of mathematical physics.
The prize is awarded every three years at the International
Mathematical Physics Congress and in each case,
is an award to three individuals (to be exact, the rules say
approximately three allowing for exceptional circumstances, at
the discretion of the prize committee). The laureates:
