Which award in mathematics is considered to be the equivalent prize for Nobel Prize?
The Fields Medal is considered to be the equivalent of the Nobel prize for mathematics. John Charles Fields (1863-1932), a Canadian mathematician, endowed funds in his will for an award for mathematical achievement and promise that would emphasize the international character of the mathematical endeavor. The first Fields Medal was awarded at the International Congress of Mathematics meeting in Oslo in 1936. Since 1950 the medal has been awarded every four years at the International Mathematical Congress to between 2 and 4 mathematicians. Although there is no specific age restriction in Fields' will, he did wish that the awards recognize both existing work and the promise of future achievement, so the medals have been restricted to mathematicians under the age of 40. No woman mathematician has ever won a Fields Medal.

Why there is no Nobel Prize for mathematics?
The exact reason for the absence of a Nobel Prize for mathematics is not definitively known, but several theories exist. One popular speculation suggests that Alfred Nobel may have had personal reasons, possibly related to his relationships with mathematicians. Another theory posits that Nobel aimed to focus on practical contributions to humanity, and mathematics may have seemed too abstract or theoretical. Instead, the Fields Medal and the Abel Prize have become the most prestigious awards in mathematics.
Why isn't there a Nobel Prize for math?
No one's exactly sure why there's no Nobel prize for math. One story claims that Alfred Nobel decided against a prize for mathematics because Nobel believed Gösta Mittag-Leffler would be likely to win it, and Nobel had had a romantic rivalry with him over Signe Lindfors (Mittag-Leffler's wife). However, there's no historical evidence to support this story, and it's not known exactly why no prize was created for mathematics. It's possible that Nobel simply didn't find it interesting enough.

Why is mathematics is not given the Nobel prize?
Because the founder of the Nobel Prize, Alfred Nobel, did not specify an award for mathematics. He left very specific instructions in his will, and the disciplines for which there would be a Nobel prize were spelled out: physics, chemistry, physiology or medicine, literature and peace. There have been some debates over the years about adding a new prize, but the Board of Directors decided to remain true to the instructions Nobel left. That said, other agencies have created awards for Mathematics, such as the Fields Medal. But it is unlikely there will be a Nobel Prize.
