2023 CATHLEEN SYNGE MORAWETZ PRIZE AWARDED TO DR. STEFANOS ARETAKIS
The Canadian Mathematical Society (CMS) is pleased to announce that Dr. Stefanos Aretakis (University of Toronto) has been named the recipient of the 2023 Cathleen Synge Morawetz Prize. This prize was awarded for an outstanding research publication, or a series of closely related publications on the topic of Applied Mathematics for Dr. Aretakis’ groundbreaking work on instability in extremal black holes (what has come to be known as Aretakis instability), conservation laws for wave equations, and their long-term behaviour in asymptotically flat backgrounds.
