Census statistics and the people of Europe

How do we know the population of Europe and who are its people? What role might digital technologies play in answering this question and how might citizens participate? Watch our interview with Evelyn Ruppert to find some answers.Prof. Ruppert is…

New tools to understand the large-scale behaviour of complex systems

Understanding complex structures means separating irrelevant information to get to something simpler and easier to understand. When you look at something from a distance – although you don’t see all the details, you can still describe what you see…

ERC 2019 Work Programme and expected changes to ERC Calls

The annual Work Programme for the European Research Council is the legal document which sets out how the ERC will allocate its funding for the corresponding year. It is established by the Scientific Council of the ERC and subsequently adopted by the…

New approaches to controlling dynamics

Once limited to modelling physical problems in engineering, today Partial Differential Equations (PDEs) are used by a diverse array of fields, from natural resources to meteorology, aeronautics, oil and gas and biomedicine – to name only a few. But…

Statistical inference for random functions and measures

How does one infer the dynamics of a DNA minicircle in solution? How does one align the neuronal firing patterns of several neurons across individuals? These questions are intrinsically statistical, but nevertheless escape the traditional tools of…

Understanding the deformation spaces of geometric structures

Funded by the ERC, Prof. Anna Wienhard studies several new geometric forms that have been discovered over the past 20 years. These structures are closely related to the generalisation of Teichmüller space, which describes how the surface of a…

Growing up I didn't even know that mathematicians existed!

Alessio Figalli, recent winner of a Fields Medal for mathematics, discusses his career, research topics and the support of the ERC.

ERC grantee receives 2018 Fields Medal for Mathematics

The 2018 Fields Medals were awarded today to four outstanding mathematicians. Amongst these is European Research Council grantee Prof. Alessio Figalli working at ETH Zürich (Switzerland), who received an ERC Consolidator Grant in 2016. The Fields…

Unravelling the mysteries of homogeneous dynamics

How do you study arithmetic objects like integer points using the theory of dynamical systems? The answer is homogenous dynamics, and this connection goes both ways. The GMODGAMMADYNAMICS project, funded by an ERC grant, took a broad approach…
