Fondation Sciences Mathématiques de Paris

The Fondation Sciences Mathématiques de Paris (FSMP) is a network of excellence that federates the main laboratories of mathematics and fundamental computer science in central and northern Paris.

It is the largest concentration of mathematicians in the world. Its scientific spectrum encompasses all mathematics, from pure mathematics to the most applied, including fundamental computer science.

The FSMP

  • Proposes and funds programs for research and training in mathematics and fundamental computer science
  • Organizes scientific events
  • Works to disseminate mathematics to the media, the general public, the economic and industrial world.

Mathématiques en Mouvement

A day of mathematics lecturesaccessible to students, on a variety of topics,illustrating the prodigious diversity of mathematical research.

Mathématiques en Mouvement, is a day organized each year by the FSMP in order to introduce students to the prodigious diversity of mathematical research.

At each edition, mathematicians, mainly from the FSMP laboratories, give short talks (about 30 minutes) accessible to students (from the preparatory class or the licence), on various themes.

The first edition of Mathématiques en Mouvement was held in 2009. Since the second edition, in 2010, the conferences are filmed and put online on the FSMP website.
