Sir Roger Penrose wins Nobel Prize

The London Mathematical Society (LMS) would like to congratulate Sir Roger Penrose on his award of the 2020 Nobel Prize for Physics. The prize was divided, one half awarded to Roger Penrose 'for the discovery that black hole formation is a robust prediction of the general theory of relativity', the other half jointly to Reinhard Genzel and Andrea Ghez 'for the discovery of a supermassive compact object at the centre of our galaxy'.
