  • The Nevanlinna Prize 2018: Constantinos Daskalakis

    3 August, 2018

    Constantinos Daskalakis has been awarded the Rolf Nevanlinna Prize at the International Congress of Mathematicians 2018. The prestigious prize is awarded every four years for outstanding contributions in mathematical aspects of information sciences. In this video Daskalakis tells us about the work he is being honoured for, which involves complexity theory, game theory, online dating and traffic jams.

    You can also listen to this interview in a podcast and find out more about Daskalakis' work in this article.


    This content was produced in a collaboration with the London Mathematical Society.


    With kind support from the Institute of Mathematics and its Applications.
