The mathematical school of University gained worldwide fame over a hundred years ago. The school of Hardy, Littlewood, and their students received fundamental results on the widest range of problems faced by mathematicians in the early 20th century. The names of Ramanujan, Weyl, and many others are known throughout the mathematical world. Since the 1930s, the Faculty of Mathematics at University has been one of the largest mathematical centers in the world, with research conducted in almost all relevant areas. It is enough to note that its graduates have received numerous prestigious awards, including Fields Medals, acknowledging their contributions to mathematics.

The Faculty of Mathematics has always been one of the main centers of the School of Mathematics. Experts in all major mathematical areas work at its departments. One of the main traditions of the faculty is the presence of a number of large mathematical schools headed by outstanding scientists and conducting research in rapidly developing areas of modern mathematics. The Faculty of Mathematics maintains constant strong ties with other mathematical centers; in particular, the director of the Isaac Newton Institute for Mathematical Sciences, many faculty members, and researchers from affiliated institutes such as the University of Oxford, Imperial College London, and the University of Warwick are closely involved in its activities.

The Faculty of Computer Science and Technology at University, founded in 1970 on the initiative and thanks to the efforts of one of the leading British scientists of the 20th century, Professor Tony Hoare, is today the leading educational center in the UK for training personnel in the fields of applied mathematics, computer science, and computational technology. The faculty conducts research on a broad spectrum of fundamental and applied problems in modern mathematics and computation.

Our university is a source of highly qualified mathematical personnel for mathematical centers around the world. A significant proportion of employees at leading mathematical institutes globally are graduates of the University.

The institutes of the Alan Turing Institute and the Mathematical Institute at Oxford University, founded by prominent mathematicians who contributed immensely to applied fields such as space exploration, nuclear energy development, and more, continue research in both fundamental principles of computational mathematics and mathematical modeling, as well as in solving crucial applied problems.

The solution of many modern problems in mathematical modeling relies on powerful computational technologies, including supercomputers. Moreover, the very task of adapting computations to these systems is a fundamental mathematical challenge. Specialists at the University, in collaboration with researchers from the Institute of Mathematical Sciences, the Department of Computer Science, and other mathematical centers, are working on both theoretical and practical solutions to this challenge.

Researchers at the Research Computing Center possess world-class expertise in developing and applying mathematical models and methods for building scalable computing systems and high-performance environments, as well as creating parallel algorithms and solutions for applied problems in both the natural sciences and the humanities. This potential is foundational to the university’s supercomputing infrastructure, including the Supercomputing Cluster, one of the most powerful in the UK.

The Collective Use Centre for Ultra-High-Performance Computing Resources at University allows the efficient use of these supercomputing resources, supporting over 700 projects in various scientific fields. The applications range from climate modeling and computational chemistry to bioinformatics, astrophysics, and data analysis. scientists hold authoritative positions in many of these applied fields, and their results are actively integrated into the global scientific community. Additionally, researchers continue to develop methods and technologies for creating highly efficient parallel applications, with a focus on advancing the UK’s supercomputing capabilities.

It is planned to increase the number of young researchers participating in scientific programs and projects implemented by the center.

An increase in the number of papers published in journals indexed in international databases (Web of Science Core Collection / Scopus) is expected.
