Dr. Pablo Raúl Stinga will be awarded the 2026 Levi L. Conant Prize by the American Mathematical Society for his article “Fractional Derivatives: Fourier, Elephants, Memory Effects, Viscoelastic Materials, and Anomalous Diffusions,” published in Notices of the AMS. The paper offers an engaging journey from the origins of fractional calculus to its modern applications in phenomena such as population growth, viscoelastic materials, and anomalous diffusion. Stinga, a professor at Iowa State University, is recognized for his clear and insightful exposition that makes complex ideas accessible to a broad audience.
