The Kuratowski Prize (Polish: Nagroda im. Kazimierza Kuratowskiego) is a Polish annual mathematics award conferred jointly by the Polish Academy of Sciences (PAN) and the Polish Mathematical Society (PTM) for contributions in the field of mathematics granted to individuals under the age of 30.[1] It is named in honour of Polish mathematician and logician Kazimierz Kuratowski (1896–1980).
Description and history
[edit]The prize was established in 1981 on the initiative of physician and politician Zofia Kuratowska, who was personally the daughter of Kazimierz Kuratowski. It is presented annually by the Institute of Mathematics of the Polish Academy of Sciences and the Polish Mathematical Society (Polskie Towarzystwo Matematyczne). The Kuratowski Prize ceremony takes place during the scientific session of the Polish Mathematical Society and the laureate of the prize is invited to give a speech on a chosen subject. It is considered the most prestigious award for young mathematicians in Poland.[2]
In 2015, Joanna Kułaga-Przymus became the first woman to be awarded the prize.[3] As of 2024, there have been two women mathematicians to receive this recognition, the other being Agnieszka Hejna (2023).
Notable laureates of the prize have included two Prize of the Foundation for Polish Science winners: Mariusz Lemańczyk (1987) and Tomasz Łuczak (1997); Erdős Prize winner Wojciech Samotij (2013); and Stefan Banach Prize winner Jerzy Weyman (1984).
