Professor Sir Vaughan Jones (1952-2020)
It is with deep regret that the London Mathematical Society (LMS) has learned of the death of Professor Sir Vaughan Jones on 6th September.
Sir Vaughan was a highly distinguished mathematician. He received the Fields Medal in Kyoto Japan in 1990 and was elected a Fellow of the Royal Society in the same year. In 2002 he was appointed Distinguished Companion of the New Zealand Order of Merit for services to mathematics and in that same year became an Honorary Member of the LMS. In 2018 he was named an Honorary Fellow of the Learned Society of Wales.
