Welcome to the 41st edition of the European Mathematical Society Digest (formerly "e-news"), rounding up mathematical news from around Europe.

The EMS is sad to hear of the recent death of Jacques Tits, Emeritus Professor at Collège de France, and winner with John Thompson of the 2008 Abel Prize.

The 2022 AMS-EMS Mikhail Gordin Prize is awarded to Semyon Dyatlov for his work on quantum chaos, scattering theory and, in particular, differentiable dynamical systems. This prize is awarded jointly with the American Mathematical Society (AMS). For more details, including a biographical sketch of, and repsonse from the laureate, see the announcement on the AMS Webpage (link).

At the meeting of the Council of the European Mathematical Society to be held in Bled in Summer 2022 there will be elections to the following positions in the Executive Committee (EC):
