International Awards for Roger Apery?












2














Roger Apery stunned the math community when he proved that $zeta(3)$ is irrational, in a truly elementary fashion. I wonder if he received any international awards specifically for this achievement.



Basically, an award which specifically mentions this proof as the main reason for it. He probably received a lot of national awards in his home country, but I am curious about global awards.



Are there any such awards?
