Our digital, networked lives are only possible thanks to cryptography, but quantum computing could make our current techniques useless. How can we prepare for this quantum future and ensure we can continue to live our digital lives?
Ingenious uses of maths have provided the key to internet security, but how can we secure our digital lives in the face of quantum computing?
Find out about lattice-based cryptography – the best candidate for keeping our networks safe in the face of attacks by quantum computers – in this brief introduction.
A lattice may seem like a simple regular grid of points, but it leads to fascinating new research in maths and cryptography!
Quantum computing often grabs the headlines. The word "quantum" itself is intriguing enough, but what exactly is quantum computing?
Ingenious maths keeps your credit card details safe when you shop online and underlies the security of the internet. Find out how in this easy introduction.
Are you thinking of doing a Masters or PhD in maths or another STEM subject but are worried about funding? Then the Martingale Foundation might be for you. Find out more in this episode of Maths on the Move.
Hannah Fry will join us at the University of Cambridge in January as Cambridge's first Professor for the Public Understanding of Mathematics!
Hannah Fry is coming to join us in Cambridge! She tells us about her own mathematical research, why she thinks mathematicians have a duty to engage the public, and shares one of her favourite mathematical moments.
Experts in public health, industry and disease modelling came together this summer to discuss how maths can prepare for the next pandemic.
Groups are staples in mathematics and group theory is often described as the study of symmetry. But what does that mean? Find out with Justin Chen!
As artificial intelligence becomes increasingly important in our society, can philosophy offer us a way to explain decisions made by AI systems?
