Mikhail Gordin Prize (AMS-EMS)

About this program

The Mikhail Gordin Prize, offered jointly by the American Mathematical Society and the European Mathematical Society (AMS–EMS), recognizes distinguished research contributions in areas including dynamical systems, complex dynamics, and related probabilistic and statistical‑physics models. The 2026 prize was awarded to Simion Filip for unexpected solutions to major conjectures in Teichmüller, complex and smooth dynamics, and to Vadim Gorin for elegant algebraic proofs establishing universality in scaling limits of probabilistic and statistical‑physics models. Eligibility is limited to individual mathematicians whose research demonstrates exceptional originality and impact in the prize’s subject areas, with recipients chosen by the AMS–EMS selection process.
