Book display in honor of this year's Fields medalists
The MFO congratulates the winners of the Fields medal in 2022. In order to present their research areas the institute has prepared a special book display in the library building where our guests can browse through literature related to their work.
The book display comprises publications from the medalists and other authors in the field. It contains overviews and introductory works as well as in-depth monographs. Visitors of the institute can browse the literature on the upper floor of the library building next to the lounge opposite the entrance. Two "snapshots of modern mathematics from Oberwolfach" are also available online: One is dealing with self-avoiding walks on the hexagonal lattice and is written by Fields medalist Hugo Duminil-Copin. The other snapshot introduces the problem of sphere packings and refers to the groundbreaking proof of Maryna Viazovska.
