Paul Erdős in 1985 at the University of Adelaide teaching Terence Tao, who was then 10 years old. Tao became a math professor at UCLA, received the Fields Medal in 2006, and was elected a Fellow of the Royal Society in 2007. His Erdős number is 2.
Erdős in 1992. Paul Erdős (1913–1996) was a Hungarian mathematician. He considered mathematics to be a social activity and often collaborated on his papers, having 511 joint authors, many of whom also have their own collaborators.
Erdős influenced many young mathematicians. In this 1985 photo taken at the University of Adelaide, Erdős explains a problem to Terence Tao—who was 10 years old at the time. Tao received the Fields Medal in 2006, and was elected a Fellow of the Royal Society in 2007.
In 2018, he was awarded the Fields Medal, [5] [26] commonly described as the Nobel Prize of mathematics, [27] becoming the second Australian (after Terence Tao) [7] and the second person of Indian descent (after Manjul Bhargava) [8] to be so honoured. The short citation for the medal declared that Venkatesh was being honoured for "his synthesis ...

From 2004–2010, in joint work with Terence Tao and Tamar Ziegler, he developed so-called higher order Fourier analysis. This theory relates Gowers norms with objects known as nilsequences. The theory derives its name from these nilsequences, which play an analogous role to the role that characters play in classical Fourier analysis.
