Two Chinese mathematicians Di Xiaqi and Wang Yuan were awarded the Hua Luogeng Mathematics Prize Monday, the highest honor of its kind in China.
During the award ceremony, Yuan Yaxiang, vice-director of the China Mathematics Society, said the two mathematicians, both members of the Chinese Academy of Sciences, were selected for their outstanding contributions to the field of mathematics.
The biennial prize was initially set up in 1992 in honor of late Chinese mathematician Hua Luogeng, who was noted for his pioneering research in mathematics.
