Mathematics Münster

Dynamics – Geometry – Structure

Mathematics is a key technology for scientific and economic progress. New discoveries in mathematics are not only interesting in themselves, but they often lead to unexpected breakthroughs in other sciences as well.

We will tackle fundamentally important mathematical problems, viewing mathematics as an organic whole with countless interactions. The research in our Cluster of Excellence "Mathematics Münster" is unified by three major approaches: focusing on the underlying structure of a given problem, taking the geometric viewpoint and studying the relevant dynamics of group or semigroup actions. The theories which we will build will not only solve the problems under consideration but also many others of a similar nature; these theories will also raise exciting new questions.

Conservations laws and non-reciprocity

5 – 8 May 2025

Both, non-reciprocity and mass conservation, have far reaching generic consequences for the universal dynamical behaviour of the concerned wide range of non-equilibrium systems. Results of many particular approaches to the mathematical modelling of such systems have shown that classical concepts of nonlinear and statistical physics, such as phase transitions, need to be reconsidered and developed further.

Spring School Women in Random Discrete Structures

12 – 14 May 2025

This spring school is devoted to several topics in probability theory, like point processes, interacting particle systems, random graphs and stochastic geometry, related by the common theme "Random Discrete Structures". The schedule will consist of three mini-courses as well as the number of short talks. We stress that attendance is of course open to everyone.

We Need National and European Data Institutes

On 7 April 2025, Benjamin Risse, Tim Hahn, Mario Ohlberger, and Thomas Nikolaus published a call for the establishment of new data institutes in the German newspaper "Frankfurter Allgemeine." Read a summary in English.
