In memoriam : Pavel Winternitz
Pavel Winternitz died on February 13, 2021 in Montréal. The CRM loses one of its pioneers. Professor Winternitz had a long and fruitful career, first as a researcher at the CRM, then as a professor at the Université de Montréal's Department of Mathematics and Statistics where he made a significant contribution to the development of mathematical physics. With an unusual passion for research, he still very actively pursued his work in the CRM's mathematical physics laboratory. His kindness and friendship will be sorely missed.
To learn more about his important contributions, we invite you to read this
press release.

The proof of the Duffin-Schaeffer conjecture applauded by Québec Science
What Richard Duffin and Albert Schaeffer had postulated in 1941, Dimitris Koukoulopoulos (Université de Montréal) and James Maynard (University of Oxford) finally proved in 2019, then published in 2020. The conjecture had long resisted the efforts of the best researchers and its proof represents a milestone in metric diophantine approximation. Koukoulopoulos and Maynard were postdoctoral researchers at the Centre de recherches mathématiques, from 2010 to 2012 and from 2013 to 2014 respectively, under the supervision of Professor Andrew Granville (University of Montreal). You can read about the major advances selected by Québec Science for 2020 and vote before Monday, February 8, 2021 at 11:59 p.m. (EST).
