The Poincaré Conjecture: work of Grigory Perelman
Grigory Perelman was awarded a Fields Medal at the Madrid meeting on the International Congress of Mathematicians for "his contributions to geometry and his revolutionary insights into the analytical and geometric structure of the Ricci flow." A number of authors have written detailed expositions of Perelman's work. These papers, as well as other references, are listed here.
Yang-Mills and Mass Gap
Experiment and computer simulations suggest the existence of a "mass gap" in the solution to the quantum versions of the Yang-Mills equations. But no proof of this property is known.
Workshops at CMI
CMI plans to hold four to six small Workshops each year at its offices at One Bow Street, Cambridge, Massachusetts. These will be of three to six days duration. For more information or to make a proposal, please contact David Ellwood (ellwood at claymath dot org, 617-995-2600) or Jim Carlson (carlson at claymath dot org, 617-995-2600).
