German mathematics prize
The Karl Georg Christian von Staudt Prize, or von Staudt Prize for short, is a German math prize that is awarded every three to six years. The prize can be awarded to one or more mathematicians who work at a German university or research institution, provided that the stay is not temporary. It recognizes "outstanding, pioneering and published research results in the field of pure mathematics".
The award is named after Karl Georg Christian von Staudt, who held the chair of mathematics at the University of Erlangen. The Otto and Edith Haupt Foundation donated the capital for the prize money. Otto Haupt was one of Staudt's successors to the chair in Erlangen. According to the original statutes, the prize was endowed with at least 50,000 DM; in 2004, the two prize winners received a total of 30,000 euros. The current statutes (as of 2014) provide for prize money of 25,000 euros.
