Department of Mathematics (DMATHS)

Research team

Description

The Department of Mathematics carries out its research activities in the following areas:

• Analysis and numerical resolution of partial differential equations,

• Topological optimization and study of curves and surfaces,

• The history of mathematics, the dissemination and popularization of mathematics, especially for secondary school teachers and students,

• Probabilities and statistics: modelling, description and estimation of random phenomena are studied (experimental designs, Gaussian processes, statistical learning...),

• Sub-variety differential geometry, lamination theory (qualitative and geometric study of differential equations), complex geometry,

• Number theory: Galoisian structure of integer rings in relation to cryptography and code theory.
