Re:2018 Fields Medal and Nevanlinna Prize Winners by zhonwang on Wednesday August 01, 2018 @01:57PM (#17665060)
This is a strange attitude to have. The prize was specifically designed to highlight the work of promising young Mathematicians so why is this an issue? It would be like complaining that the Little League World Series is ageist because it doesn't allow older competitors. Besides there is also the Abel Prize which is equally if not more prestigious, is open to any living Mathematician and has a far more substantial monetary prize attached.
