Five Cambridge mathematicians invited to speak at the ICM 2022
Five mathematicians from the Mathematics Faculty have been invited to speak at the International Congress of Mathematicians (ICM), which takes place virtually in July.
The COSMOS supercomputer, designed to probe the deepest mysteries of our Universe, has had a significant impact on high performance computing back here on Earth. The technical advances it has inspired power applications in a wide range of areas, from the medical sector to Hollywood CGI.
Could artificial intelligence support medical doctors in their work? The Cambridge Mathematics of Information in Healthcare Hub (CMIH) aims to make this vision a reality.
Cambridge Perspectives: Unveiling Mysteries of the Quantum World
Dr Maria Ubiali and Dr Sergii Strelchuk discuss how developments in computational machine learning can reveal mysteries of the quantum world, and how quantum effects can be applied in turn to revolutionise the ways scientists process information.
Research Excellence Framework highlights world leading research
The results from the latest Research Excellence Framework (REF), published in May 2022, have highlighted the world class research being conducted in the Faculty of Mathematics.
Rong Zhou recently joined DPMMS as a Lecturer. We caught up with him to talk about equations that can’t be solved, surprising connections in number theory, and the energy of the Faculty.
The Faculty's NRICH mathematics education project focuses on developing problem-solving, and is celebrating 25 years of support for schools, teachers, students and parents.
Ailsa Keating, from the Department of Pure Mathematics and Mathematical Statistics, has been awarded a prestigious Starting Grant from the European Research Council to further her research into the symmetries of symplectic spaces.
Matthew Wales is a PhD student at the Department of Pure Mathematics and Mathematical Statistics. Here he tells us about the joys of pure mathematics, how it feels to produce your very own mathematical result, and the importance of coffee in the world of maths.
Mathematical paradox demonstrates the limits of AI
A new study by researchers in DAMTP suggests instability is the Achilles’ heel of modern AI, and that a century-old mathematical paradox shows the gap researchers now need to bridge.
