Yisho umnqobi we-Fields Medal kwezezibalo.
Context:UMaryam Mirzakhani wayengusosayensi wezibalo wase-Iran futhi wayenguprofesa wezibalo eStanford University. Izihloko zakhe zocwaningo zazihlanganisa inkolelo-mbono kaTeichmüller, i-hyperbolic geometry, inkolelo-mbono ye-ergodic, kanye ne-symplectic geometry. Ngo-2005, ngenxa yocwaningo lwakhe, wahlonishwa ku-"Brilliant 10" wonyaka wesine we-Popular Science lapho aqashelwa khona njengomunye wezingqondo eziyishumi eziphezulu eziye zaphoqelela imikhakha yazo ngezindlela ezintsha. UMirzakhani wahlonishwa nge-Fields Medal, umklomelo ohlonishwa kakhulu kwezezibalo, waba owokuqala wase-Iran ukuhlonishwa ngalo mklomelo futhi waba ngowokuqala kwabesifazane ababili kuphela kuze kube manje. Ikomidi lomklomelo lacaphuna umsebenzi wakhe "kwe-dynamics kanye ne-geometry yama-Riemann surfaces kanye nezikhala zawo ze-moduli". UMirzakhani washona ngenxa yomdlavuza webele eneminyaka engu-40 ngo-2017.
UMaryam Mirzakhani, isazi sezibalo sase-Iran, wathola i-Fields Medal kwezibalo ngo-2014 ngaphambi kokushona kwakhe ngaphambi kwesikhathi ngenxa yomdlavuza webele ngo-2017.
