A quick introduction to transcendental numbers, a famous problem which relates to them, and how the person who solved it became a victim of political tensions.

Clément Mouhot tells us about his work trying to understand some of the most beautiful structures in mathematics and physics.

We talk to Ivan Smith, invited lecturer at the ICM 2018, about his work and what he likes about the Congress.

We talk to two of the organisers of the ICM 2022 in Saint Petersburg.

The Nevanlinna prize winner Constantinos Daskalakis explains why equilibrium may be unattainable and why it's good to be constructive.

Daskalakis tells us about the work he is being honoured for, which involves complexity theory, game theory, online dating and traffic jams.
