Yves Meyer to Receive the 2017 Abel Prize
Tuesday March 21st 2017

The Norwegian Academy of Science and Letters announces the 2017 Abel Prize is awarded to Yves Meyer, École normale supérieure Paris-Saclay, France, "for his pivotal role in the development of the mathematical theory of wavelets." Yves Meyer "was the visionary leader in the modern development of this theory, at the intersection of mathematics, information technology and computational science." The Abel Prize website webcast the announcement (embedded below), followed by a popular science presentation by Terence Tao of the Laureate's work.
"On behalf of the American Mathematical Society, it is my great pleasure to congratulate Professor Yves Meyer, recipient of the 2017 Abel Prize. Professor Meyer has been a visionary in a broad range of fields, including number theory and differential equations. His fundamental work in the theory of wavelets has transformed the world of signal processing and has led to a myriad of practical applications." --- AMS President Kenneth A. Ribet

"Wavelet analysis has been applied in a wide variety of arenas as diverse as applied and computational harmonic analysis, data compression, noise reduction, medical imaging, archiving, digital cinema, deconvolution of the Hubble space telescope images, and the recent LIGO detection of gravitational waves created by the collision of two black holes.... Yves Meyer has also made fundamental contributions to problems in number theory, harmonic analysis and partial differential equations, on topics such as quasi-crystals, singular integral operators and the Navier-Stokes equations."

Yves Meyer is a member of the French Academy of Science, an honorary member of the American Academy of Arts and Sciences, and a Fellow of the American Mathematical Society.

The Abel Prize recognizes contributions of extraordinary depth and influence to the mathematical sciences and has been awarded annually since 2003. It carries a cash award of 6 million NOK (about 675,000 Euro or $715,000 USD). Read the full citation; his biography by Philip de Greff Ball; "If it were true, it would be known," a glimpse of the Laureate's work by Arne B. Sletsjøe; and about the Abel Prize.
