Congratulations for being awarded the 2022 Fields Medal!

Really nicely explained (and edited). The modified Pascal's triangle framing is a really fun way to make these topological patterns feel like they pop out of numerical playfulness.

[KurtSchwind]

Best handwriting in all of Numberphile. June Huh has remarkable penmanship.

[FredrikMeyer]

A few years ago I attended a summer school where June Huh was one of the lecturers. It was amazing. He’s the kind of idealistic mathematician who always sees the big picture.

[Neuxramus]

the way he writes the letter "f" is so satisfying

I'm here after June Huh's Fields Medal announcement!!! CONGRATS!!!

The "unproven" g-conjecture was proven in a paper published in December 2018, just 6 months after this video was posted.

"Pick my favourite triangulated sphere in the 17th dimension..."
There's just so many, I can never choose just one!

[OlbaidFractalium]

Mathematicians are enormously imaginative.

[Mutual_Information]

It’s nice knowing that, as of this filming, June Huh had a bright, bright future. Congratulations on the Fields Metal!

[dkranda]

June Huh has a beautifully patient cadence to his presentation style.

[clbgrmn]

Dang, more videos with Dr. Huh. This was one of my favorites. He's obviously passionate about this math, and is very articulate.

This is a very inconvenient time of day for me to watch a 20-minute math video, but I got the notification, so here we are.

[GuanoLad]

This is the best penmanship I've ever seen on a Numberphile brown paper.

[taopaille-paille]

The greatest congratulations to June Huh for having been a recipient of the Medal Field this year

[rohitg]

As of 2022, June Huh has been awarded a Fields Medal. Just amazing!

[skeletonrowdie]

icosahedron?
You mean a pentagonal gyroelongated bipiramid?

[iycgtptyarvg]

I love his calm demeanor. What a great guy. Please do more videos with him.

[Simoneister]

"A 1 dimensional triangle is a straight line"

Cool cool

[standowner]

I watched this video years ago and I never would have thought that he would have won the Fields Medal.

Congratulations!!
