DESCRIPTION: \n\n\n\n \n\nThe 2021 Fields Medal Symposium will honour the w
 ork and achievements of Peter Scholze. At 24\, Scholze became the youngest
  full professor in Germany when he took up a teaching post at the Universi
 ty of Bonn. He was awarded the Fields Medal in 2018 at the age of 29\, mak
 ing him one of the youngest medallists in the history of the award.\n\nSch
 olze’s research has great range\, but his work has had particular impact o
 n arithmetic geometry and its applications. He first gained notice as a gr
 aduate student for finding proofs to several fundamental theorems in more 
 compact form. His PhD thesis on perfectoid spaces\, which he created as a 
 unifying concept\, solidified his reputation as “a rare talent that only e
 merges every few decades.”\n\nRecently\, Scholze has been in the news for 
 his astonishing result that established real functional analysis still wor
 ks if you replace topological spaces with condensed sets\, a proof he deve
 loped in less than a week. Join us for what promises to be an illuminating
  week of mathematical discovery.\n\nThe 2021 Fields Medal Symposium will t
 ake place online and will consist of:\n\n\n	Public Opening Lecture: October
  25\, 2021\n	Scientific Program: October 25 – 28\, 2021\n\n\nThe Public Ope
 ning will feature an introduction to Peter Scholze's work by Jared Weinste
 in (Boston University)\, a one-on-one chat with Peter and Megumi Harada (M
 cMaster University)\, and a panel of distinguished mathematicians discussi
 ng his work. Welcome and introductions will be given by guests from academ
 ia and government. Both the Public Opening and Scientific Program are open
  to the public and free of charge\, but attendees must register beforehand
 . The entire Symposium will be streamed live\, then will be made available
  on our website and YouTube channel at a later date.\n\nRegistration Instr
 uction: \n\nRegister here to get the link to the live stream. \n\nScientif
 ic Program\n\nThe 2021 Fields Medal Symposium will honour Peter Scholze (F
 ields Medal 2018) and explore the current and potential impact of his work
 . The Scientific Program is intended for a wide audience\, including gradu
 ate students\, mathematicians in other research areas\, and scientists who
  use mathematics in an important way. More details can be seen here: http:
