Congratulations to Professor Mohammed Abouzaid, who has been awarded a Simons Collaboration Grant.

Simons Collaborations bring together groups of outstanding scientists to address mathematical or theoretical topics of fundamental scientific importance where a significant new development creates a novel area for exploration or provides a new direction for progress in an established field. This Simons Collaboration on Homological Mirror Symmetry is motivated by the idea that the time is now ripe to prove fundamental theorems establishing the existence of mirror symmetry in full generality, and to explore the applications of this symmetry. Other members of the collaboration include Tony Pantev (University of Pennsylvania), Denis Auroux (University of California, Berkeley), Ron Donagi (University of Pennsylvania), Kenji Fukaya (Simons Center for Geometry and Physics), Ludmil Katzarkov (University of Miami and Vienna), Maxim Kontsevich (IHES), Bong Lian (Brandeis), Shing-Tung Yau (Harvard University).
