The Mathematics Research Center was established in 2011 with support from the Kenneth P. Dietrich School of Arts and Sciences at University of Pittsburgh. The MRC operates within the Department of Mathematics and its research activities encompass a broad range of areas, including algebra, combinatorics, geometry, topology, analysis, applied analysis, mathematical biology, mathematical finance, numerical analysis, and scientific computing. Ongoing activities include semester themes, distinguished lecture series, workshops, miniconferences, research seminars, a visitor program, and a postdoctoral program.

Upcoming Workshops and Mini Conferences

From the Fundamental Lemma to Discrete Geometry, to Formal Verification
A conference in honour of Thomas C. Hales on the occasion of his 60th birthday

The conference will feature talks on discrete geometry, automorphic forms, motivic integration, and formal verification, themes from the work of Thomas C. Hales, with a special emphasis on the interactions between these fields. In addition to research talks, there will be several public lectures, accessible to a wide audience, including undergraduate students.

The conference is supported in part by the Institute for Mathematics and its Applications (IMA) through its Participating Institution (PI) Program. PI members may use IMA/PI funds to support personnel's travel to this conference.

This conference supports the Non-Discrimination Statement of the Association for Women in Mathematics.
