The United States is hosting the 42nd International Mathematical Olympiad (IMO) in the summer of 2001. The IMO is the premier international mathematics competition for high school students and it will bring to the U.S. more than 500 of the most talented high school age mathematicians from more than 80 countries.During the competition, students work individually over a two-day period on six challenging problems, presenting their solutions as essay-style proofs akin to those produced by research mathematicians. While in this country, students are treated to American hospitality, visiting attractions in and around the Capital and experiencing American life and culture. At the closing awards ceremony outstanding performances are honored by the awarding of gold, silver and bronze medals to students scoring in the top half of the field.A number of outreach and research activities are planned as a way of enhancing public understanding of appreciation of mathematics and to engage a larger number of young Americans in mathematics.

美国将于2001年夏季主办第42届国际数学奥林匹克竞赛。 国际数学竞赛是针对高中生的首要国际数学竞赛，它将为美国带来来自80多个国家的500多名最有才华的高中数学家。在比赛中，学生们在两天的时间里独立完成六个具有挑战性的问题，以论文形式提出他们的解决方案，类似于研究数学家提出的解决方案。 在这个国家，学生受到美国人的热情款待，参观首都及其周围的景点，体验美国的生活和文化。 在闭幕式上，表现出色的学生将获得金、银和铜牌，以表彰他们在数学领域的前半部分得分。计划开展一些推广和研究活动，以提高公众对数学欣赏的理解，并吸引更多的美国年轻人参与数学。
