Nobel Prize laureates who are mathematicians
There is no Nobel Prize in mathematics: Alfred Nobel did not include it among the prizes he established. Yet mathematics continually helps make discoveries in physics, chemistry, economics, and even the study of life.
Here are 42 Nobel laureates for whom mathematics is not an occasional tool but part of their profession and scientific life. Each received a Nobel Prize in another category, not for mathematical achievement. Nevertheless, their work includes mathematical research, so they can rightly be considered mathematicians.
