The multi-award-winning mathematician Prof. Dr Alessio Figalli will give the keynote lecture at this year's Weierstrass Lecture at Paderborn University on Friday 26 April.

Mathematical modeling, the solving of open-ended, reality-based text problems, is an important part of mathematical education. However, many pupils find it difficult to solve modeling tasks, which raises the question of how they can be supported in the best possible way. In the first project phase of “ViMo”, drawing a sketch proved to be a promising strategy for promoting modeling skills in the field of geometry. However, it turned out that…

On the 1st and 2nd December, the third meeting of the ARTIG (Algebras and Representation Theory in Germany) series will take place at Paderborn University. The conference was organized together with Bielefeld University within the framework of SFB-TRR 358 and is dedicated to the memory of Helmut Lenzing (1939 - 2022). In the tradition of Lenzing's research, ARTIG 3 is thematically located at the interface between the representation theory of…

In the latest edition of the renowned "Global Ranking of Academic Subjects" (GRAS), also known as the "Shanghai Subject Ranking", the Department of Mathematics at Paderborn University has once again performed very well. The results are based on five indicators that assess the performance of specific subject areas. This year, 5,000 universities from 104 countries and regions were compared with each other and 1,900 universities were ranked in 55…

In the latest edition of the renowned "Global Ranking of Academic Subjects" (GRAS), also known as the "Shanghai Subject Ranking", Paderborn University has once again made it into the top 500 universities worldwide.

The series of events funded by the Federal Ministry of Education and Research (BMBF) will start under the acronym PPIK on Monday, 23 October 2023 in Lecture Hall O1 at 16:00. PPIK stands for "Paderborn Perspectives on Inclusion - Interdisciplinary, Discursive, Practical - Colloquium, College & Fireside Chats". It is a series of events funded by the BMBF to promote young researchers in empirical educational research, in which around 40 doctoral…

Am 18. und 19. November findet an der Universität Paderborn das 39. Kolloquium über Kombinatorik (KolKom 2022) statt.

Conference in honor of Michael Dellnitz. During the last 25 years, computational techniques for dynamical systems and optimization problems have been developed which allow for the efficient and rigorous approximation of solutions of arbitrary shape and topology. They already have found manifold applications in, e.g., molecular dynamics, engineering, climate research and biology.  The goal of this workshop is to bring together international…
