The W.T. and Idalia Reid Prize

This prize is awarded for research in, or other contributions to, the broadly defined areas of differential equations and control theory. Each prize may be given either for a single notable achievement or a collection of such achievements. The prize and lecture are given each year at the annual meeting of SIAM.

This year’s recipient: H. Thomas Banks, North Carolina State University
"Riccati Equations in Feedback Control and Estimation"

The John von Neumann Lecture

Established in 1959, this prize is awarded to a mathematician, or a scientist in another field, who has made a distinguished contribution to pure and/or applied mathematics. This award is normally given every year at the SIAM Annual Meeting

This year’s recipient:
The Human Genome and Beyond
Eric Lander, Whitehead Institute, Massachusetts Institute of Technology

The George Polya is given every two years, alternately in two categories. The 2002 prize will be for a notable contribution in one of several areas of interest to George Polya such as approximation theory, complex analysis, number theory, orthogonal polynomials, probability theory, or mathematical discovery and learning.

This year’s recipients:
Craig A. Tracy, University of California, Davis
Harold Widom, University of California, Santa Cruz
