約翰·米爾諾
生平
米爾諾出生于美國(guó)新澤西州奧蘭治。在普林斯頓大學(xué)就讀本科期間,他就在1949年和1950年參加了普特南數(shù)學(xué)競(jìng)賽(en:William Lowell Putnam Mathematical Competition),并證明了Fary–Milnor定理。之后,他在進(jìn)入普林斯頓大學(xué)的研究生院,并完成了論文《Isotopy of Links》。獲得博士學(xué)位后,他繼續(xù)在普林斯頓工作。
1962年,米爾諾因他在微分拓?fù)漕I(lǐng)域的工作獲得菲爾茲獎(jiǎng)。之后,他又獲得了美國(guó)國(guó)家科學(xué)獎(jiǎng)?wù)拢?967年)、Leroy P Steele Prize(1982年,2004年,2011年)、沃爾夫獎(jiǎng)(1989年)。他還著有許多出色的書(shū)籍。這些書(shū)通俗,簡(jiǎn)潔而又嚴(yán)謹(jǐn)。
2011年,他因其“在拓?fù)?,幾何和代?shù)的開(kāi)拓性發(fā)現(xiàn)”(“pioneering discoveries in topology, geometry and algebra.”)獲得了阿貝爾獎(jiǎng)。作為回應(yīng),他告訴《新科學(xué)家》,“這感覺(jué)非常好”(“It feels very good”),并說(shuō)“早上6點(diǎn)的電話總是讓人感到意外?!保ā癘ne is always surprised by a call at 6 o"clock in the morning.”)
