Sir Simon Kirwan Donaldson FRS (nacido el 20 de agosto de 1957) es un matemático inglés conocido por su trabajo sobre la topología de variedades cuatridimensionales suaves (diferenciables), la teoría de Donaldson-Thomas y sus contribuciones a la geometría de Kähler.
Cambridge, England. Summary. Simon Donaldson is an English mathematician who received a Fields Medal for his work on 4 dimensional manifolds. He was knighted in 2012 and awarded the most prestigious mathematical prizes including the Shaw Prize, the Breakthrough Prize in Mathematics, the Oswald Veblen Prize, and the Wolf Prize in Mathematics.
Simon Donaldson has transformed our understanding of four-dimensional shapes, showing which ones can be “tamed” with the kind of equations that mathematicians can solve, and which can’t. In the process, he both provided powerful new tools for physicists and incorporated new ideas from physics into mathematics.
