The EMS Digest is currently being remodelled, following the retirement (with all of our thanks!) of the previous editor Mireille Chaleyat-Maurel. It will be fully back in June, with a new editor and a new format. In the mean-time we present a "mini-digest", a less-comprehensive round-up of mathematical news.

On behalf of the European Mathematical Community, we congratulate Luis A. Caffarelli who has been awarded the 2023 Abel Prize “for his seminal contributions to regularity theory for nonlinear partial differential equations including free-boundary problems and the Monge–Ampère equation.” For a biography and full citation of the laureate, and to watch the announcement, see the Abel Prize webpage (link).

The March 2023 edition of the EMS Magazine is available online, free to read now (link). No paywall, no pop-ups, no registration needed! Some highlights follow:

Outline bids to organize the 2028 10th European Congress of Mathematics are now invited, with a deadline of 30 June 2023. More information here (link).

We congratulate Xieping Wang (University of Science and Technology of China in Hefei) who has been awarded the 2023 W. K. Clifford Prize for his outstanding contributions to the field of Clifford analysis, particularly in the area of slice hyperholomorphic functions. Click through (link) for more information.
