"For nearly two centuries, all kinds of researchers interested in how fluids flow have turned to the Navier-Stokes equations. But mathematicians still harbor basic questions about them. Foremost among them: How well do the equations adhere to reality?"

Camillo De Lellis, IBM von Neumann Professor in the School of Mathematics, has been awarded the Antonio Feltrinelli Prize for Mathematics, Mechanics and Applications. Additionally, Elia Bruè, current Member in the School, has been awarded the academy's Gioacchino Iapichino Prize.
