Maths, but not as you know it…
2018 Fields Medal winner Alessio Figalli explains his groundbreaking work on Optimal Transport for which he was awarded the prize, covering applications in weather prediction, crystal formation and soap bubbles.

In the final part of my interview with Sir Michael Atiyah – one of his last ever before he passed away – he talks about some of his mathematical heroes, from Einstein and Newton to Brouwer and Michelangelo, including the most beautiful description of the ceiling of the Sistine Chapel I’ve ever heard. A true giant of Mathematics, who is sorely missed.

2018 Fields Medal winner Alessio Figalli describes his mathematical journey from his study of Classics in High School, to his groundbreaking work in Calculus of Variations and PDEs.
Interview with the University of Oxford’s Dr Tom Crawford at the 2018 Heidelberg Laureate Forum.
In one of his last ever interviews, Sir Michael Atiyah explains his love of maths from his early years exchanging money as a child, until his final months working on the Riemann Hypothesis. A true giant of Maths, who is sorely missed. RIP.
