Antonio Córdoba, professor emeritus at the Autonomous University of Madrid (UAM) and member of the ICMAT, has won the Ferran Sunyer i Balaguer 2024 International Mathematical Research Prize, awarded by the foundation of the same name. The Scientific Committee of the award recognised his monograph Suprematism in Harmonic Analysis, which presents recent advances in the area of harmonic analysis. The announcement was made on 23 April at a ceremony held at the headquarters of the Institut d’Estudis Catalans, in Barcelona, as part of the Institut’s Sant Jordi Awards.

The prize is worth €15,000 and includes the publication of the monograph in the ‘Progress in Mathematics’ collection, published by Birkhäuser.

The scientific committee was composed of Ruth Ruth Kellerhals (Université de Fribourg), Jiang-Hua Lu (University of Hong Kong), Marta Sanz-Solé (Universitat de Barcelona), Kristian Seip (Norwegian University of Science and Technology, NTNU) and Yuri Tschinkel (Courant Institute of Mathematical Sciences, New York University).

Ferran Sunyer i Balaguer Prize

The Ferran Sunyer i Balaguer Prize is awarded annually to an original, unpublished mathematical monograph, written in English, in which outstanding advances in an area of mathematics are presented. It has a prize of €15,000 and also involves the publication of the winning work in the collection ‘Progress in Mathematics’, published by Birkhäuser.

Ferran Sunyer i Balaguer Foundation

The Ferran Sunyer i Balaguer Foundation was created in 1983 by the sisters of the Catalan mathematician Ferran Sunyer i Balaguer (1912-1967) as a tribute. Since 1991 it has been part of the Institut d’Estudis Catalans. Its main objective is to stimulate mathematical research, with prizes for mathematical works and also grants for studies and research in the discipline.
