Please Nominate Me for Abel Prize

I have made certain math discoveries. I deem these worth $1000000 prize (Abel Prize for mathematicians).

Please help me to receive this prize. I ask you to nominate me for this prize (to send a certain letter to the academy which controls the prize).

How to Nominate Me

If you want to help me, please write the letter to The Norwegian Academy of Science accordingly the below guidelines.

Your letter must be postmarked no later than November 15th and send to

The Norwegian Academy of Science and Letters
Drammensveien 78
NO-0271 Oslo
Norway

The Content of the Letter

The letter shall contain at least the following information:

The Description of Nominee's Math Research

Introduced new concepts of funcoids and reloids generalizing correspondingly nearness spaces and uniform spaces and profoundly researched their properties, so creating the most general theory in point-set topology. Both continuousness and uniform continuousness are re-formulated as algebraic formulas hiding the epsilon-delta notion behind a smart algebra.

Frequently Asked Questions

I must be a mathematician to nominate you, must I?

No, it is enough if you have a friend-mathematician which you know will not oppose to be contacted regarding my nominations and to read and review my articles (if he will be asked to by the committee).

Do you want that I'd prepare and send the letter just now?

Yes. You can send it just now (send it no later than November 15th).

What is Abel Prize?

It is an about $1000000 prize, like Nobel Prize, but for mathematicians (Nobel Prize is for other sciences).

Why you don't nominate yourself, but ask others to do this?

Abel Prize rules forbid self-nominations.

Is it OK that I nominate you after your plea to nominate rather than by my own initiative?

Yes, it is OK, as long as you do not contact me about nominating.

Should I notify you after I will nominate you?

No! Don't tell me that you have nominated me! It would contradict Abel Prize rules. Do not ask me any questions about Abel Prize, do not mention in any way that you are (going) to nominate me.

What if somebody other except me will nominate you?

To be sure that I will be nominated please nominate me. It will not harm if I will be nominated several times.

When and where I should send the letter?

You letter must be postmarked no later than November 15th (otherwise nomination will be delayed a year, what is wrong).

Send it to the address:

The Norwegian Academy of Science and Letters
Drammensveien 78
NO-0271 Oslo
Norway

What I will receive in return?

Sorry, nothing. (I can't pay you a part of money because the nominations are confidential and I shall not know that you nominated me.) Please make a goodwill to help me.

Is it significant that you have no official scientific degree?

No, this should be not important. Really I have almost finished math education in an University. (I left the University because has gone to a job.) The official Abel Prize rules do not require the nominee to have a scientific degree.

(Actually if they would use scientific degree as a criterion for selecting the laureate, it would be a serious violation of the committee rules which require other criteria such as influence of the work on the development of science, not degrees and social position what would be a clear discrimination.)
