摘　　要：考察了华罗庚对多复变函数论研究取得的突破,论述其获得中国科学院1956年度科学奖金一等奖的经过,并分析获奖对他的影响。1949—1955年,华罗庚对多复变函数论中典型域上的解析函数论与调和函数论进行了研究。在研究中,他主要运用群表示理论,并运用矩阵计算等技巧,具体而独创性地得出了典型域上多复变函数论的一些最基本的和深刻的结果。这使他在建立典型域上多复变函数论基本理论方面取得突破。1955年学习苏联经验,中国科学院设立代表国家面向全国公民的科学奖金。中国科学院数学研究所推荐华罗庚以多复变函数论和代数、数论领域的16篇论文参加评奖。尽管评奖中存在争议,但经严格的评审程序,1957年华罗庚以关于“典型域上的多元复变函数论”的论文获得中国科学院1956年度科学奖金一等奖。这次获奖提高了他的学术和社会声望,激励他以更大的注意力研究数学和培养青年人才。在他的引领和影响下,20世纪60年代中前期多复变函数论研究在中国迎来了初步繁荣。This paper reviews Hua Loo-Keng's breakthrough in the research of functions of several complex variables,discusses the process of his winning the first prize of the 1956 Scientific Awards of the Chinese Academy of Sciences(CAS),and analyzes the influence of the award on him.Hua Loo-Keng studied the theory of analytic functions and harmonic functions on classical domains of the theory of functions of several complex variables from 1949 to 1955.In his research,he mainly used the theory of group representation,matrix calculation and other skills to concretely and originally obtain some of the most fundamental and profound results of the theory of functions of several complex variables on classical domains.To follow the Soviet Union's practice,the Chinese Academy of Sciences set up scientific awards for all citizens on behalf of the state in 1955.Hua LooKeng's 16 papers were recommended to compete for the awards by the Institute of Mathematics,CAS.And Hua won the first prize of the 1956 Scientific Awards of the CAS in 1957 after a rigorous review process,which not only enhanced his academic and social reputation but also encouraged him to continue his mathematical research and cultivate young talents with more attention.Under his guidance and influence,the research on the theory of functions of several complex variables ushered in initial prosperity in China in the early and middle 1960s.
