Jean-Pierre Serre. From the Abel Prize: "Serre developed revolutionary algebraic methods for studying topology, and in particular studied the transformations between spheres of higher dimensions. He is responsible for a spectacular clarification of the work of the Italian algebraic geometers by introducing and developing the right algebraic ...
After Jens Erik Fenstad, chair of the Abel Board (organizer of the prize events), had given a short speech, the Abel laureate, Jean-Pierre Serre, laid a wreath at the monument. On June 2 the scientific program started in Georg Sverdrup’s house, the wonderful new library at the University of Oslo in Blindern.
The work of Jean-Pierre Serre represents an important breakthrough in at least four mathematical areas: algebraic topology, algebraic geometry, algebra, and number theory. His outstanding mathematical achievements have been a source of inspi-ration for many mathematicians.
2003: Jean-Pierre Serre Collège de France, France "for playing a key role in shaping the modern form of many parts of mathematics, including topology, algebraic geometry and number theory".
Jean-Pierre Serre est l’un des plus grands mathématiciens du XXe siècle. Peu connu du grand public, il cumule pourtant les titres prestigieux. Elève à l’École normale supérieure, il est reçu premier à l’agrégation de mathématiques en 1948.
