The 6th edition of the J. P. Schauder's Medal Competition has started

By the decision of the Scientific Council, the sixth edition of the competition for the Juliusz Paweł Schauder Medal has been opened. According to the competition regulations, the Medal is an individual award granted for achievements in the field of nonlinear mathematical analysis. Candidates for the competition can be nominated by members of the Center's Council or other persons with established scientific authority.

The competition jury consists of:

  • Piotr Oprocha (chairman) (AGH University)
  • Piotr Biler (University of Wrocław)
  • Piotr Gwiazda (University of Warsaw, Institute of Mathematics, Polish Academy of Sciences)
  • Joanna Janczewska (Gdańsk Technical University)

   and former laureates:

  • Jean Mawhin
  • Paul Rabinowitz
  • Edward Norman Dancer
  • Susanna Terracini
  • Thomas Bartsch.

Applications for the Medal, along with justifications, can be submitted to the Center until the end of December 2025 at the following address: Juliusz Paweł Schauder University Center for Nonlinear Studies, ul. Chopina 12/18, 87-100 Toruń, POLAND

or electronically to the email address: cbn@umk.pl.

The announcement of the competition results is planned for the end of May 2026, and the Medal awarding ceremony will be held in 2027.

We warmly invite you to submit applications!


5th edition has been settled

The jury, appointed by the Scientific Council of the Juliusz P. Schauder Center for Nonlinear Studies at the Nicolaus Copernicus University in Toruń, Poland, carried out a careful evaluation of the candidate and unanimously decided to award the 2023 Juliusz Schauder Medal to

Professor Thomas Bartsch

from the University of Giessen, Germany

for his exceptional achievements in the field of nonlinear analysis as well as topological and variational methods in this area.

The decision of the jury has met the full support and the approval from all the members of the Council.

We wish to congratulate Professor Thomas Bartsch warmly on this honorable distinction.

The prize awarding ceremony is planned to be held on June 18, 2024 during the VIII Symposium on Nonlinear Analysis. Information about the event is available here.
