The University of Colorado Center for Number Theory has interests spanning number theory, from analytic to algebraic. There is a focus on arithmetic geometry, including arithmetic dynamics, elliptic ...
Number theorist Peter Scholze, who became Germany’s youngest ever full professor aged 24, and geometrician Caucher Birkar—a Kurdish refugee—are among the winners of this year’s Fields Medals, the most ...
Science advances by overturning theories, replacing them by better ones. Sometimes the old theories continue to serve as valuable approximations, as with Newton’s laws of motion. Sometimes the older ...
A mathematician who developed what some consider the "grand unified theory of mathematics" has won one of the most prestigious prizes in mathematics. Robert Langlands, an emeritus professor at the ...
The Langlands program has inspired and befuddled mathematicians for more than 50 years. A major advance has now opened up new worlds for them to explore One of the biggest stories in science is ...
Chantal David is one of the leading number theorists in Canada, known for significant and original research contributions. She is primarily interested in distribution questions for arithmetic objects ...
This course is compulsory on the BSc in Financial Mathematics and Statistics, BSc in Mathematics and Economics and BSc in Mathematics with Economics. This course is available on the BSc in Actuarial ...
Teaching set theory to six-year-olds as a way into mathematics, from arithmetic on, would come to be considered misguided, overcomplicating the basics and introducing jargon. Yet however radical a ...
Earlier this year, a first-time academic author published a new mathematical study in the journal Research in Number Theory. The twist? The researcher, Christopher Havens, is also serving a 25-year ...
