The Qin-Jiu-Shao Prize is an international mathematics award given to outstanding mathematicians who have made significant contributions to the field on a global scale. Named after the Chinese mathematician Qin Jiu-Shao from the Southern Song Dynasty (1208-1268), the prize holds prestige for its association with his constructive proof of the Chinese Remainder Theorem in his work, Mathematical Treatise in Nine Sections.[1]

History edit

In 2023, the Institute of Mathematics at the Shanghai Hanjing Centre for Science and Technology established the Qin-Jiu-Shao Prize. This initiative aims to identify and acknowledge exceptional mathematicians for their remarkable contributions to the global field of mathematics. The recipients of the prize are officially recognized during the opening ceremony of the annual International Conference on Mathematical Analysis, Applications, and Computational Simulation (ICMAACS). The funds for the Qin-Jiu-Shao Prize are provided by the Long Shan Mathematical Foundation at the Shanghai Hanjing Centre for Science and Technology, with the inaugural presentation taking place at the 2023 ICMAACS held in Shanghai, China.

The Qin-Jiu-Shao Prize medal is crafted from 999 silver with a gold-electroplated surface, boasting a diameter of 12 cm, a thickness of 0.5 cm, and a weight of 600g. The obverse side features a portrait of Jiu-Shao Qin, adorned with Chinese and English characters. "秦九韶奖" is inscribed in Chinese, while "Qin-Jiu-Shao Prize" is written in English. The numbers "1208-1268" are also engraved.

On the reverse side, the Qin-Jiu-Shao Prize is represented by a crown, five stars, and an ear of wheat. Additionally, the Chinese characters "数书九章" and the English phrase "Mathematical Treatise in Nine Sections" are inscribed. The design includes two line segments and arcs forming a distinctive figure.

Recipients of the prize are honored with a medal, certificate, and a cash award of RMB¥5000 in acknowledgment of their remarkable contributions to the field of mathematics.
