Frank Nelson Cole Prize in Number Theory

About this program

The American Mathematical Society awards the Frank Nelson Cole Prize in Number Theory to recognize exceptional contributions to number theory—often honoring a single influential paper or a body of work—and the prize is traditionally conferred on a periodic (typically triennial) schedule. Recipients are chosen by an AMS prize committee on the basis of originality, depth, and impact within number theory. Eligible candidates are researchers worldwide whose work meets the committee’s standards; nominations (with citation, bibliography, and supporting letters) must be submitted following AMS procedures and deadlines.
