Kenji Fukaya Wins 2025 Shaw Prize in Mathematical Sciences

Our iTHEMS former colleague, Kenji Fukaya, has been awarded the 2025 Shaw Prize in Mathematical Sciences"
for his pioneering work on symplectic geometry, especially for envisioning the existence of a category — nowadays called the Fukaya category — consisting of Lagrangians on a symplectic manifold, for leading the monumental task of constructing it, and for his subsequent ground-breaking and impactful contributions to symplectic topology, mirror symmetry, and gauge theory.”
Congratulations, Kenji!
