Frank Nelson Cole Prize in Algebra

About this program

The American Mathematical Society awards the Frank Nelson Cole Prize in Algebra to recognize outstanding research contributions in algebra, typically honoring a single paper or a body of work that has materially advanced the field. The prize is conferred periodically by an AMS-appointed selection committee and carries formal recognition in the mathematics community. Eligible candidates are researchers whose published work in algebra merits distinction; nominees are put forward by peers with supporting publications and letters and are evaluated by the AMS prize committee, with no restriction on nationality or institutional affiliation.
