Jørgen Ellegaard Andersen was in 2017 jointly with Rinat Kashaev solicited to contribute a paper on their construction of the Teichmüller TQFT to the most prestigious “Proceedings of the ICM”, which is published only every fourth year, this one for the International Congress of Mathematics in Rio de Janeiro 2018. http://www.icm2018.org/portal/en/
The International Congress of Mathematicians (ICM) is the largest and most prestigious conference for the topic of mathematics. It meets once every four years, hosted by the International Mathematical Union (IMU).
The Fields Medals, the Nevanlinna Prize, the Gauss Prize, and the Chern Medal are awarded during the congress's opening ceremony. Each congress is memorialized by a printed set of Proceedings recording academic papers based on invited talks intended to be relevant to current topics of general interest.
