Yves Benoist worked in mathematics at a period when the field's own foundations were under discussion.
The record lists Yves Benoist as French mathematician.
Yves Benoist was born in 2000. His recorded nationality is France. He studied at École Normale Supérieure.
Modern mathematics is collaborative and increasingly computational; proofs can now run to thousands of pages or depend on machine verification.
The recorded fields of work are dynamical system.
A theorem is permanent in a way no experiment can be, which raises the standard for entry.
The honours record reads: Clay Research Award (2011).
That the work was done from France matters: mathematical training, institutions and the language of publication have never been evenly distributed.
Yves Benoist is still working, and the final assessment of the contribution has not been made.
