The Institute for Advanced Study’s “Paths to Math” series comes to a close with a special edition video featuring one of our most beloved veteran mathematicians: Distinguished Visiting Professor Karen Uhlenbeck.
Watch to see Uhlenbeck, the first woman to win the Abel Prize, chart her career from her undergraduate days, when an introduction to calculus course awakened her love for mathematics, to the spirited female colleagues that she worked alongside at the University of Illinois Chicago, who helped to dispel any lingering doubts about being a woman in math.
Karen also introduces her abundant fields of interest within mathematics, which include the calculus of variations, dispersive equations, and integrable systems, as well as the questions that continue to intrigue her today.
“Paths to Math” chronicles the academic journeys of individual scholars from the Institute for Advanced Study, highlighting the moments that ignited their passion for math. With each unique story, this series celebrates the universality of mathematics and the inclusive community of practitioners at IAS, spanning a deep array of backgrounds, interests, geography, ethnicity, and gender.
“Paths to Math” is produced by OFC (ofc.tv)

This video series is so inspiring. So many people think math isn't for them because they weren't prodigies (myself included) or feel under-represented in the field.

Im not gifted in math at all, but i absolutely love it. To me math is everything. Its my time to relax, its something i can express myself in, its interesting and deep. Richard Feynman wasnt a genius either (in his words) but he worked hard and studied what he loved. I intend to follow that path.

First I heard name of Professor Uhlenbeck concerning minimax conditioning of local conditions in normes space, shortly pronounced, Uhlenbeck compactification. I am indeed honored and encouraged at this very occasion that make me listen to her own statement by words. Thank a lot Professeur Uhlenbeck.

Karen, I remember reading your interview (with AMS Notices if I recall correctly) when I was a senior or first year grad student and your path/story was very inspirational to me. Thank you!

Im about to go to school for physics but i love math a great deal. Perhaps i should double major but i dont have that much time. I guess im going to just see how things go. I can always change my major.

Here is a hint about the modulao (6n - 1)(6n - 1) = (6n + 1) (6n - 1)(6n + 1) = (6n - 1) (6n + 1)(6n + 1) = (6n + 1) If I remember correctly?, (who knows) (6n - 1)(6n + 1) cancellations happen at double the pace of the other two? so cancellations balance out

Unfortunately, we don't have a "keep plugging away at it" world anymore. Everything has to be quick and not gnarly-complex. But to really get anywhere we have to ask gnarly "what ifs," then plug away at them. (This is more a pep talk to myself than great wisdom for you, BTW.)
