Mathematics in Hong Kong - Challenges of the 21 Century Distinguished Public Lecture by Professor Yau Shing-tung Date: July 4 (Saturday), 1998. Time: 10:00 - 11:00a.m. Veune: Run Run Shaw Hall. Speaker: Professor Yau Shing-tung, Professor of Mathematics of The Chinese University of Hong Kong, Professor of Mathematics of Harvard University Language: Cantonese All are welcome. In this lecture, Professor Yau will share his experience in learning mathematics in Hong Kong where the received primary, secondary and tertiary education. He will adopt a global perspective to discuss mathematics education and missions of the educators in the field of mathematics in Hong Kong. Internationally renowned mathematician, Professor Yau Shing-ting is Professor of Mathematics of his alma mater, The Chinese University of Hong Kong and Professor of Mathematics of Harvard University. In 1982, Professor Yau was awarded the Fields Medal, the highest honour in mathematics. In 1997, Professor Yau's remarkable achievements and contributions in mathematics brought him the National Medal of Science, the highest scientific honour of the United States. Being the Director of the Institute of Mathematical Sciences of the Chinese University, Professor Yau co-leads the interdisciplinary research work of the Institute with Nobel Laureate Professor Yang Chen-ning.

Yau was appointed assistant professor at the State University of New York at Stony Brook in 1972. In 1974 he was appointed an associate professor at Stanford University. He was promoted to full professor at Stanford before returning to the Institute for Advanced Study at Princeton in 1979. In 1980 he was made a professor at the Institute for Advanced Study at Princeton, a position he held until 1984 when he moved to a chair at the University of California at San Diego. In 1988 he was appointed professor at Harvard University. Yau was awarded a Fields Medal in 1982 for his contributions to partial differential equations , to the Calabi conjecture in algebraic geometry , to the positive mass conjecture of general relativity theory, and to real and complex Monge equations. In fact the 1982 Fields Medals were announced at a meeting of the General Assembly of the International Mathematical Union in Warsaw in early August 1982. They were not presented until the International Congress in Warsaw which could not be held in 1982 as scheduled and was delayed until the following year.

Roles Mathematicians not only study, but also research, and this must be given prominent mention here, because a misconception that everything in mathematics is already known is widespread among persons not learned in that field. In fact, the publication of new discoveries in mathematics continues at an immense rate in hundreds of scientific journals, many of them devoted to mathematics and many devoted to subjects to which mathematics is applied (such as theoretical computer science, physics or quantum mechanics).

Born April 4, 1919 in Swatow, People's Republic of China. The 1997 National Medal of Science Winner Yau has made profound contributions to mathematics with his unparalleled ability for combining the theories of nonlinear partial differential equations and differential geometry. His work has had a great impact on areas of mathematics and physics as diverse as topology, algebraic geometry, representation theory and general relativity as well as differential geometry and partial differential equations. Yau's work is distinguished by its enormous breadth, power and insight. Repeatedly tackling fundamental problems without regard to their difficulty, impact on science through his own research has definitely placed Yau in a league of his own. Yau, working collaboratively with Richard M. Schoen, solved a long-standing open problem in relativity theory, by showing the positivity of mass for space-time. As a consequence, Schoen and Yau were able to give the first rigorous demonstration of how black holes can be formed because of the condensation of matter. A black hole possesses a gravitational field so intense that no matter or radiation can escape from it.

Einstein’s dream of physical unity may well be only a small part of a grander synthesis encompassing all of mathematics as well. "These developments strongly suggest that as we stand on the shores of a new millennium, we may well be witnessing the birth of not only a unified theory of the physical universe, but also a unification with some of the deepest developments in mathematics as well."
