Breakthrough models AlphaProof and AlphaGeometry 2 solve advanced reasoning problems in mathematics.

For decades, a small group of mathematicians has patiently unraveled the mystery of what was once math’s most popular picture. Their story shows how technology transforms even the most abstract mathematical landscapes.

The U.S. National Science Foundation awards Professor Vogt the CAREER Grant: "CAREER: Interpolation, stability, and rationality."

The Executive Committee of the Association for Women in Mathematics (AWM) has established the Alice T. Schafer Mathematics Prize to be awarded to an undergraduate woman for excellence in mathematics.

“By building connections across statistics, mathematics, and the sciences, we can uncover interesting new problems and frameworks, and design new tools to better address the challenges of modern data analysis.”

The Antonio Ambrosetti medal is awarded in memory of Antonio Ambrosetti, who was one of the first three Professors at SISSA since the foundation of the School in 1980.

A trapezoid was key to discovering the elusive answer to a riddle about Möbius strips

Bena Tshishiku, Assistant Professor of Mathematics, awarded a National Science Foundation CAREER Grant entitled "CAREER: Mapping class groups, diffeomorphism groups, and moduli spaces".

Susanna Haziot has been awarded the Prize of the Austrian Mathematical Society (ÖMG) for her outstanding dissertation entitled "Mathematical studies of hydrodynamical currents and wave-current interactions".

The Simons Foundation congratulates the outstanding mathematicians who have been awarded Simons Fellowships in 2023.

The FALCON algorithm, developed by NTRU Cryptosystems Inc., was selected by the National Institute of Standards and Technologies as one of the 2022 national cryptography standards due to its new method of computation that is not as susceptible to quantum computer attack.

Eric Larson and Isabel Vogt have solved the interpolation problem — a centuries-old question about some of the most basic objects in geometry. Some credit goes to the chalkboard in their living room.

For centuries, mathematicians have tried to prove that Euler’s fluid equations can produce nonsensical answers. A new approach to machine learning has researchers betting that “blowup” is near.

The Math Teaching Fellows Program is a semester-long certificate program that provides UTAs with the skills and knowledge required to be an effective UTA in the Math Department.
