It highlights the areas in which, at various times, the greatest progress has been made.The third edition of Fields Medallists' Lectures features additional contributions from: John W Milnor (1962), Enrico Bombieri (1974), Gerd Faltings (1986), Andrei Okounkov (2006), Terence Tao (2006), Cedric Villani (2010), Elon Lindenstrauss (2010), Ngo Bao Chau (2010), Stanislav Smirnov (2010). |
