Paul Erdős Award for Michał Krych
We are pleased to share that Dr. Michał Krych has been honored with the Paul Erdős Award!
For over half a century, Dr. Michał Krych has been tirelessly involved in the Polish Mathematical Olympiad, student competitions, and popularization. He is the only Polish recipient of this award to date, although it is worth noting that after 1996, it was combined with the Hilbert Prize, which was awarded to Marcin Kuczma in 1992. The prize is awarded by the World Federation of National Mathematics Competitions.
