|  The Nobel Prize is awarded annually (since 1901) for achievements in Physics, Chemistry, Physiology or Medicine, Literature, Peace and Economics (since 1968). This does not mean that a mathematician has not won a Nobel Prize. (eg. John Nash, Economics 1994). Also, there is no age limit for the Nobel Prize, however, one must be less than 40 years old to receive the Fields Medal. The youngest recipient of a Nobel Prize was 25 years old (Lawrence Bragg 1915) and five received one at the age of 87. |

| There is no Nobel Prize in mathematics. The closest thing is the Fields medal. |
