Rollo Davidson Prize

The Rollo Davidson Prize is a prize awarded annually to early-career probabilists by the Rollo Davidson trustees. It is named after English mathematician Rollo Davidson (1944–1970).

Rollo Davidson Trust

In 1970, Rollo Davidson, a Fellow-elect of Churchill College, Cambridge died on Piz Bernina, a mountain in Switzerland. In 1975, a trust fund was established at Churchill College in his memory, endowed initially through the publication in his honour of two volumes of papers, edited by E. F. Harding and D. G. Kendall.[1]

The Rollo Davidson Trust[2] has awarded an annual prize to young probabilists since 1976,[3] and has organized occasional lectures in honour of Davidson.[4] Since 2012 the Trust has also awarded an annual Thomas Bond Sprague Prize.[5]

gollark: I have TLS because it massively reduces the chances of highly important* data going to osmarks.net being intercepted, even though it doesn't obscure *everything* and has holes.
gollark: You can use things because they will probably increase security. Even if they are not perfect.
gollark: Yes you can.
