Question: What award was the professor who supervised Jun Li's Ph.D. awarded in 1982 ?

In differential geometry, the Kobayashi–Hitchin correspondence (or Donaldson–Uhlenbeck–Yau theorem) relates stable vector bundles over a complex manifold to Einstein–Hermitian vector bundles.  The correspondence is named after Shoshichi Kobayashi and Nigel Hitchin, who independently conjectured in the 1980s that the moduli spaces of stable vector bundles and Einstein–Hermitian vector bundles over a complex manifold were essentially the same.  This was proved by Simon Donaldson for algebraic surfaces and later for algebraic manifolds, by Karen Uhlenbeck and Shing-Tung Yau for Kähler manifolds, and by Jun Li and Yau for complex manifolds. <SEP> Jun Li () is a Chinese mathematician who is currently a Professor of Mathematics at Stanford University.  He focuses primarily on moduli problems in algebraic geometry and their applications to mathematical physics, geometry and topology.  He received his Ph.D. from Harvard University in 1989, under the supervision of Shing-Tung Yau. <SEP> Shing-Tung Yau ( ; ; born April 4, 1949) is a Hong Kong and naturalised American mathematician.  He was awarded the Fields Medal in 1982.  He is currently the William Caspar Graustein Professor of Mathematics at Harvard. <SEP> Fulufhelo V. Nelwamondo (OMS) is an electrical engineer by training, and holds a Bachelor of Science and a PhD in Electrical Engineering, in the area of Computational Intelligence, both from the University of the Witwatersrand, in South Africa.  He matriculated at Mbilwi Secondary School and his PhD was supervised by Tshilidzi Marwala.  In 2017, the President of South Africa, bestowed the Order of Mapungubwe (highest honors that a country, through its President, bestows on its citizens) in Silver, to Professor Nelwamondo, in line with the powers vested in the President of the Republic, in terms of Section 84 of the Constitution of South Africa.  Nelwamondo is a registered Professional Engineer, and is the Executive Director: Council for Scientific and Industrial Research Modelling and Digital Science.  He is a senior member of the IEEE, and a visiting professor of Electrical Engineering at the University of Johannesburg.  He was a post-doctoral fellow at the Graduate School of Arts and Sciences, of Harvard University.  Nelwamondo has research and practical experience in software engineering and in computational intelligence in various applications.  He is the youngest South African ever to receive the Harvard-South Africa fellowship and has been awarded many national and international research accolades, from organizations such as the IEEE, South African Institute of Electrical Engineers, amongst others.  In 2009/10, he was awarded the National Science and Technology Forum award, for outstanding research, and in 2016, he was awarded the Operation Research Society of South Africa (ORSSA) Award for "outstanding contribution to the Science and Profession of Operation Research over a considerable period of time".  He has interests in exciting and emerging areas of software and technology applications including Biometrics based system, data mining, data science, modelling of complex systems, machine learning and mechanism design.  Nelwamondo has successfully supervised a number of Masters and PhD degrees in electrical engineering, and continues to do so.  He has published over 100 research papers in journals, reviewed conferences and book chapters.
