Good morning, Trondheim! After a memorable celebration in Oslo, we now move to Trondheim, where the Norwegian University of Science and Technology (NTNU) will host a full day of events honoring Abel Prize laureate Masaki Kashiwara. #Abelprize2025
We thank today’s speakers for their inspiring lectures, and now look forward to continuing the evening at the legendary Abel Party, hosted by The Norwegian Academy of Science and Letters — a wonderful celebration of mathematics and this year’s Abel Prize laureate. #Abelprize2025

Following the award ceremony, we will gather on the second floor of the National Theatre for a reception and a science interview. 💡In the interview, science journalist Torkild Jemterud from NRK will explore Kashiwara’s research in conversation with the professor.

In only a few hours, Professor Masaki Kashiwara will be awarded the 2025 Abel Prize for “his fundamental contributions to algebraic analysis and representation theory, in particular the development of the theory of D-modules and the discovery of crystal graphs.”⭐️ #Abelprize2025

Yesterday, The Norwegian Minister of Education Kari Nessa Nordtun awarded The Holmboe Prize to math teacher Sigrid Melander Vie from Rud high school. Abel Prize laureate Masaki Kashiwara also paid tribute to Niels Henrik Abel by laying a wreath at the Abel Monument. #Abelprize



The Japanese newspaper Asahi Shimbun (since 1879) is delivering a podcast about Abel Prize laureate Masaki Kashiwara May 20. The journalist responsible for mathematics and science publish the podcast about the first Japanese winner of the Abel Prize. omny.fm/shows/asahi/18…

Today marks the beginning of The Abel Prize Week 2025!🌸 The Abel Prize celebrations start in the Royal Gardens, by Gustav Vigeland’s monument to Niels Henrik Abel. Prior to this, the Holmboe Prize is awarded at Oslo Cathedral School. #Abelprize2025

Happy birthday to Sir Andrew J. Wiles! He received the Abel Prize in 2016 for "his stunning proof of Fermat’s Last Theorem by way of the modularity conjecture for semistable elliptic curves, opening a new era in number theory." #Abelprize #Abelprize2016 #science #mathematics
