Should we allow mathematical proofs to  contain errors? We find out from  Avi Wigderson in our podcast series covering the European Congress of Mathematics 2024.

A Gömböc is an inanimate object that wriggles around as if it were alive and in some sense barely exist at all — and it's a mathematical sensation! Find out more in this episode of Maths on the move!

How far away are we from discovering alien life? And how long until we manage to create life in the lab? This episodes of Maths on the move explores these questions and more with one of our favourite astrophysicists, Mario Livio.

As we head get ready for our summer holidays, we share our mathematical highlights from recent events in Spain and the UK and our recommendations for summer reading and listening!

Our behaviour impacts not just our daily lives.  But how do you mathematically describe the messiness of human behaviour?

We celebrate the run-up to the European Congress of Mathematics (ECM) with Fields Medallist Maryna Viazovska who previously won a prestigious EMS prize at the ECM.

In the run up to the European Congress of Mathematics we continue our series of interviews with mathematicians who've won the prestigious Fields Medal. This week we hear from Artur Avila talking about his work on taming chaos.

In the run up to the European Congress of Mathematics we continue our series of interviews with mathematicians who've won the prestigious Fields Medal. This week we hear from Alessio Figalli talking about the theory of optimal transport.

In the run up to the European Congress of Mathematics we continue our series of interviews with mathematicians who've won the prestigious Fields Medal. This week we hear from James Maynard talking about the twin prime conjecture.

We celebrate the run-up to the European Congress of Mathematics (ECM) with an interview with Fields Medallist Hugo Duminil-Copin, who previously won a prestigious EMS prize at the ECM.

Artificial intelligence is changing all our lives - even the lives of mathematicians.  Yang-Hui He tells us about his exciting new conjecture that came about due to both artificial and human intelligence, and reveals patterns in the prime numbers that look like flocks of birds.

"The 20th century was the interaction of geometry and physics, and the 21st century is the interaction of number theory with physics." Find out why in our conversation with Yang-Hui He from the London Institute of Mathematical Sciences! 

In this episode of Maths on the move we discuss the fascinating intersection of mathematics and art.

In this episode we revisit an interview with Ken Ono about the remarkable Indian mathematician Srinivasa Ramanujan, one of the most fascinating figures in the history of mathematics.

From tiling bathrooms to fooling cancer cells, and from new insights in topology to bringing research into the classroom — we hope you enjoy our April round-up!

Join us at the mathematical frontier with Georg Maierhofer as he tells us about an exciting new idea bringing together physics and machine learning! 

Could there be a fifth force of nature hitherto unknown to science? Find out with physicist Ben Allanach in this episode of Maths on the move.

We know climate change can impact our lives through weather events and food security, but it can also impact on the spread of diseases. We talk to Helena Stage from the University of Bristol to find out more.
