School of Mathematics, Korea Institute for Advanced Study

The great success of modern science is largely attributed to the application of mathematics in the analysis of models arising from natural and social phenomena. The School of Mathematics supports scholarship in a broad range of mathematical sciences including both pure and applied mathematics such as algebra, number theory, geometry, topology, global analysis, mirror symmetry, partial differential equations, etc. The fundamental objective of the School is creating new mathematical knowledge and nurturing young mathematicians by exposing rising talents to the full spectrum of mathematical sciences. Because the most significant mathematical discoveries have often benefited from cross-fertilization of ideas from different mathematical fields, the School maintains research on diverse areas of mathematics.
