Spring Prize
The Mathematical Society of Japan (MSJ, ja, 日本数学会) is a learned society for mathematics in Japan. In 1877, the organization was established as the ''Tokyo Sugaku Kaisha'' and was the first academic society in Japan. It was re-organized and re-established in its present form in 1946. The MSJ has more than 5,000 members. They have the opportunity to participate in programs at MSJ meetings which take place in spring and autumn each year. They also have the opportunity to announce their own research at these meetings. Prizes Geometry Prize The Geometry Prize is a mathematics award granted by the Mathematical Society of Japan to recognise significant or long-time research work in the field of geometry, including differential geometry, topology, and algebraic geometry. It was established in 1987.

Kenji Fukaya
Kenji Fukaya (Japanese: 深谷賢治, ''Fukaya Kenji'') is a Japanese mathematician known for his work in symplectic geometry and Riemannian geometry. His many fundamental contributions to mathematics include the discovery of the Fukaya category. He is a permanent faculty member at the Simons Center for Geometry and Physics and a professor of mathematics at Stony Brook University. Biography Fukaya was both an undergraduate and a graduate student in mathematics at the University of Tokyo, receiving his BA in 1981, and his PhD in 1986. In 1987, he joined the University of Tokyo faculty as an associate professor. He then moved to Kyoto University as a full professor in 1994. In 2013, he then moved to the United States in order to join the faculty of the Simons Center for Geometry and Physics at Stony Brook. The Fukaya category, meaning the A_\infty category of whose objects are Lagrangian submanifolds of a given symplectic manifold, is named after him, and is intimatel ...

Learned Society
A learned society (; also learned academy, scholarly society, or academic association) is an organization that exists to promote an discipline (academia), academic discipline, profession, or a group of related disciplines such as the arts and science. Membership may be open to all, may require possession of some qualification, or may be an honour conferred by election. Most learned societies are non-profit organizations, and many are professional associations. Their activities typically include holding regular academic conference, conferences for the presentation and discussion of new research results and publishing or sponsoring academic journals in their discipline. Some also act as Professional association, professional bodies, regulating the activities of their members in the public interest or the collective interest of the membership. History Some of the oldest learned societies are the Académie des Jeux floraux (founded 1323), the Sodalitas Litterarum Vistulana (founded ...
