In this paper I analyze some complexities in the education of mathematically gifted students. The list of issues presented in this paper is not inclusive; however, all of them seem to be typical on the international scope. Among these issues are: (1) the gap between research in mathematics education and the research in gifted education; (2) the role of creativity in the education of the gifted and the theoretical perspective on the relationship between creativity and giftedness, and (3) teaching the gifted and the teachers of gifted, including relationships between the equity principle in mathematics education and views on the education of gifted. In the paper I outline some actual research questions in the field of education of mathematically gifted.

Citations in the corpus
- Inclusion in mathematics education: an ideology, a way of teaching, or both? (2018, background): “In regard to social level, Leikin (2011) poses the question, ‘What type of ability grouping”
- Creative mathematics teaching in the eye of the beholder: focusing on teachers' conceptions (2011, background): “Two decades later, Leikin (2009, 2011) reviewed research publications between 1999 and 2009 and showed that the situation had not changed, and that research on creativity is still secondary to research on mathematical thinking, learning, and teaching.”
- Teachers’ views on creativity in mathematics education: an international survey (2013, background): “However, analysis of research literature devoted to deep analysis of teachers’ conceptions of creativity in teaching mathematics clearly demonstrates that this issue is underdeveloped in mathematics education research (Leikin 2009, 2010, 2011).”
