May 25, 2015 at 15:15 | comment | added | Georges Elencwajg | Nash's Abel prize was indeed officially awarded in Oslo on May 19th, but already announced on March 25th by the Norwegian Academy of Sciences and Letters: apologies for inaccurately expressing myself. I meant that it is a consolation that Nash was permitted to live through both these days. | |

May 24, 2015 at 22:54 | comment | added | Georges Elencwajg | Fate can be cruel but let us thank Her for allowing Nash to collect his Abel prize in May 2015, two months before his death. | |
