Mathematics Münster

The focus of this workshop is stochastic spatial structures in non-Euclidean spaces, including point processes, tessellations, and random geometric graphs. The event highlights recent advances and aims to bring together researchers from different backgrounds in order to stimulate active scientific exchange.

The aim of this workshop is to present a panorama of the recent developments around spin geometry and index theorem. 

The joint online seminar "AI and the Future of Mathematics" of TRR 326, TRR 358, CRC 1442, and Mathematics Münster, is devoted specifically to the impact of AI on mathematics. It brings together researchers to exchange experiences and discuss how AI may shape the future of mathematics. The seminar takes place via Zoom.

This workshop proves the Lubin-Tate and Drinfeld tower isomorphism at infinite level using Scholze–Weinstein's theory of local shtukas. It subsequently applies this special case of duality of local shtuka spaces to the Jacquet–Langlands correspondence.

Get an insight into the research of seven new postdoctoral researchers of Mathematics Münster. In short scientific presentations, Adrian Celestino, Arghya Sadhukhan, Edoardo Tolotti, Beatriz Salvador, Anish Chedalavada, Florian Riedel and Mahdi Haghshenas will introduce their topics. The talks take place within the Colloquium Wilhelm Killing on 15 October 2026 at 2:15 pm in lecture hall M4.

Prof. Dr. Cyrill Muratov (University of Pisa) will give a talk entitled "Skyrmions in ultrathin magnetic films: an overview" at the Colloquium Wilhelm Killing on 22 October 2026. Tea time starts at 3:15 pm in the Cluster Common Room.

In light of the development during this summer, Claudia Alfes (Bielefeld), Andreas Thom (TU Dresden) and Thomas Nikolaus (Mathematics Münster) put forward draft positions on the future of mathematical research and mathematics degree programmes in the age of AI, alongside questions and possible answers. With this AI.MATH initiative they invite you to join the discussion and make room for the uncertainties, hopes and concerns associated with this change.

We are celebrating the start of the second funding period of our Cluster of Excellence Mathematics Münster with a three-day conference, which opened yesterday. Eleven renowned international speakers and members of Mathematics Münster are presenting insights into their current research through Friday. [de]

In the field of mathematics, the University of Münster is again among the world’s top 75 universities according to the latest Shanghai Ranking. In Germany, Mathematics Münster ranks second, behind the University of Bonn.

The state of North Rhine-Westphalia is investing €200 million in the new research cluster AI4CancerCure.NRW, which aims to bring together expertise from different locations in the fields of oncology and artificial intelligence. As part of the initiative, the University Medical Centre Münster plans to establish a PRECISION.AI Oncology Centre, focusing on the development and application of innovative AI methods. The centre involves researchers from medicine, computer science, mathematics and data science. Prof. Dr. Mario Ohlberger from the Cluster of Excellence Mathematics Münster is a member of the project team.

In the University of Münster’s "Umdenken" podcast, Cluster member Prof. Dr. Christian Seis discusses reports of an AI-assisted solution to the Navier-Stokes problem. He considers what AI could mean for research and which tasks should remain with mathematicians.

In the new episode of "On a tangent", Carlo talks to Malthe Mejlsted about his time in Denmark, his participation in mathematics Olympiads, camps, and other science programmes, and what these experiences taught him. As a PhD researcher supervised by Prof. Wilhelm Winter, Malthe is now investigating operator algebras.
