Look, you can't go back and snatch the medal out of her hands. What would the attempt itself and the ruckus generated really accomplish, other than to offer justification for the false belief that women are discriminated against in mathematics? The fact that Mirzakhani is now dead makes the subject even more taboo. It will be some years before we can have an honest public discussion about her achievements (or lack thereof). Posterity is the final arbiter of merit. The world of mathematics will remember and cherish its giants. Getting this or that award is irrelevant in the grand scheme of things. So we will go along to get along, and be done with it, our grievances best kept private because in time it will all be forgotten anyway.

In an alternate world where feminism doesn't exist, right now there is a mathematician being much more productive, working at a higher ranked university right now, because of the recognition he got from being a field medalist. But nope, in our universe that guy may still be productive, but has nowhere near the influence he'd have if he was a field medalist.

Receiving a Fields medal tends to kill productivity, not increase it. Many mathematicians are in it in part for the prestige, and once that prestige is handed to them on a platter (or in a medal), they stop working as hard.

It's a double edged sword.

[Anonymous No.9906258]

>>9906250
Wrong. Most mathematicians are predisposed to just doing math, they do it for their own enjoyment even. As to what kind of research they can do, the only limit is their prestige and influence. More influence implies broader, more ambitious research with better co-authors. It makes no sense that a mathematician would get lazy at the peak of his mathematical reach.

[Anonymous No.9907208]

>>9907194
She disgusts me, but why would you misrepresent her and her thesis to make her look bad? You don't need to lie about her to make her look bad!

First, the content of her thesis is actually not high-school level. It is highly trivial, but from a field, you'd need to spend years first learning all the bullshit formalities. I'd even say she actually produced original mathematics, it is just that it is clear her advisor (or anyone) could have done what she did, and she was just given a dummy project anyone could accomplish to just push her out with a Ph.D. for muh political points.

2) That image is misleading. That is not the content of her thesis, she is just explaining the core objects of her thesis. Even if she actually ripped off the Latex of those determinants, it's not even that bad because those are just dummy examples for the reader. She does this because she has the misguided goal of making mathematics accessible to everyone, so she turns what could have been a 10 page article into a fucking book just to make it accessible to any retard, and she doesn't even accomplish that because no non-mathematician will struggle through all of that bullshit just to read her no-name thesis.

3) She uses that kind of informal language for the reason I mentioned before. She thinks it is "funny".

the Fields Medal Affects Scientific Output
>Knowledge generation is key to economic growth, and scientific prizes are designed to encourage it. But how does winning a prestigious prize affect future output? We compare the productivity of Fields Medal recipients (winners of the top mathematics prize) to that of similarly brilliant contenders. The two groups have similar publication rates until the award year, after which the winners’ productivity declines. The medalists begin to “play the field,” studying unfamiliar topics at the expense of writing papers. It appears that tournaments can have large postprize effects on the effort allocation of knowledge producers.
