Shinichi Mochizuki (望月 新一, born March 29, 1969) is a Japanese mathematician specializing in number theory. He works in arithmetic geometry, Hodge theory, anabelian geometry, p-adic Teichmüller theory, and inter-universal Teichmüller theory. He was an invited speaker at International Congress of Mathematicians in 1998.

In August 2012, Shinichi Mochizuki released a paper with a serious claim to a proof of the ABC conjecture.[1][2][3]

Life

Mochizuki entered the Princeton University at age 16 and received a Ph.D. under the supervision of Gerd Faltings at age 22. In 2002, he became a professor at the Research Institute for Mathematical Sciences in the Kyoto University.
