Plus is based at the Centre for Mathematical Sciences at the University of Cambridge. We are very fortunate to work with many brilliant colleagues in the Maths Faculty, you will find the content we have produced with them below.
Fields Medallist Wendelin Werner loves Brownian loop soups. In the second part of this article, we learn more about why they matter so much.
Fields Medallist Wendelin Werner loves Brownian loop soups. We explore what they are, why he finds them so "natural", and how they are linked to the physics of elementary particles.
In this episode we speak to Professor Julian Sahasrabudhe in the run up to ICM 2026 about how he got into maths, combinatorics, and finding connections to other areas of maths.
In the run up to the ICM 2026, we speak to one of the invited speakers at the Congress, Richard Samworth, all about his work in statistics.
Daniel Baumann will be treading in Hawking's legendary footsteps, pursuing a central question of the field: How did the Universe begin? Find out more in this article.
Why was the 2025 Atlantic hurricane season different from previous seasons? Early career researcher Charles Powell analysed the data, helping insurance company Inigo in the process.
The Earth's climate is a complex system. To make things easier scientists sometimes imagine a planet entirely covered in water. Watch some beautiful simulations of clouds and rain on the Aquaplanet!
Gravitational waves have provided a wealth of information about black holes. But could other objects be hiding in this data too? Researchers are exploring this idea, which may also help resolve the mystery of dark matter.
How do mathematicians help policy makers make the best decisions?
We meet some of the researchers who are trying to translate between the two very different worlds of mathematics and politics.
We talk to Krieger about her work, sharing mathematics with wider audiences, and advice for young mathematicians
In this episode of Living Proof we talk to a playwright and a physicist about a book they have written together on the marvellous but tricky theory of quantum mechanics!
