Jacques Herbrand Prize
The Jacques Herbrand Prize (French language, French: Prix Jacques Herbrand) is an award given by the French Academy of Sciences#Medals, awards and prizes, French Academy of Sciences to young researchers (up to 35 years) in the field of mathematics, physics, and their non-military applications. It was created in 1996, and first awarded in 1998. In 2001, it was renamed to Grand Prix Jacques Herbrand . Until 2002, the prize was given each year in both fields; since 2003, it is given alternatingly. It is endowed with 15000, later with 20000 euros, and named in honor of the French logician Jacques Herbrand (1908-1931).

French Language
French ( or ) is a Romance language of the Indo-European family. It descended from the Vulgar Latin of the Roman Empire, as did all Romance languages. French evolved from Gallo-Romance, the Latin spoken in Gaul, and more specifically in Northern Gaul. Its closest relatives are the other langues d'oïl—languages historically spoken in northern France and in southern Belgium, which French ( Francien) largely supplanted. French was also influenced by native Celtic languages of Northern Roman Gaul like Gallia Belgica and by the ( Germanic) Frankish language of the post-Roman Frankish invaders. Today, owing to France's past overseas expansion, there are numerous French-based creole languages, most notably Haitian Creole. A French-speaking person or nation may be referred to as Francophone in both English and French. French is an official language in 29 countries across multiple continents, most of which are members of the ''Organisation internationale de la Francophonie'' ...

Awards Of The French Academy Of Sciences
An award, sometimes called a distinction, is something given to a recipient as a token of recognition of excellence in a certain field. When the token is a medal, ribbon or other item designed for wearing, it is known as a decoration. An award may be described by three aspects: 1) who is given 2) what 3) by whom, all varying according to purpose. The recipient is often to a single person, such as a student or athlete, or a representative of a group of people, be it an organisation, a sports team or a whole country. The award item may be a decoration, that is an insignia suitable for wearing, such as a medal, badge, or rosette (award). It can also be a token object such as certificate, diploma, championship belt, trophy, or plaque. The award may also be or be accompanied by a title of honor, as well as an object of direct value such as prize money or a scholarship. Furthermore, an honorable mention is an award given, typically in education, that does not confer the recipient(s ... [...More Info...] [...Related Items...] OR: [Wikipedia] [Google] [Baidu] |

Herbrand Award
The Herbrand Award for Distinguished Contributions to Automated Reasoning is an award given by the Conference on Automated Deduction (CADE), Inc., (although it predates the formal incorporation of CADE) to honour persons or groups for important contributions to the field of automated theorem proving, automated deduction. The award is named after the France, French scientist Jacques Herbrand and given at most once per CADE or International Joint Conference on Automated Reasoning (IJCAR). It comes with a prize of US$1,000. Anyone can be nominated, the award is awarded after a vote among CADE trustees and former recipients, usually with input from the CADE/IJCAR programme committee.

Hugo Duminil-Copin
Hugo Duminil-Copin (born 26 August 1985) is a French mathematician specializing in probability theory. He was awarded the Fields Medal in 2022. Biography The son of a middle school sports teacher and a former female dancer who became a primary school teacher, Duminil-Copin grew up in the outer suburbs of Paris, where he played a lot of sports as a child, and initially considered attending a sports-oriented high school to pursue his interest in handball. He decided to attend a school focused on mathematics and science, and enrolled at the Lycée Louis-le-Grand in Paris, then at the École normale supérieure (Paris) and the University Paris-Sud. He decided to focus on math instead of physics, because he found the rigour of mathematical proof more satisfying, but developed an interest in percolation theory, which is used in mathematical physics to address issues in statistical mechanics. In 2008, he moved to the University of Geneva to write a PhD thesis under Stanislav Smirnov. D ... [...More Info...] [...Related Items...] OR: [Wikipedia] [Google] [Baidu] |
