Welcome !

Our association, the International Centre for Pure and Applied Mathematics (CIMPA), has been promoting mathematical research with researchers in developing countries for almost 50 years. We firmly believe that access to mathematical research must be equitable and open to as many people as possible, so that creativity can express itself freely and to the full for the benefit of all mankind. On our website, you'll find plenty of ways to help us achieve this goal, either by organizing activities or by taking part in them. Enjoy your visit!

Mathematical and Computational Modelling for Biology

Coordinator: Ramesh Gautam, Mathematical Biology Research Centre (MBRC), Nepal

Applied Mathematics for Real-Life Phenomenon

Coordinators: Gourav Arora (India), Youcef Mammeri (France)

Lattices and codes : arithmetic for communication systems

Frédérique Oggier

Summary: In this course, we taught show how lattices and codes, both independently and jointly, are used in the context of communication systems. The course was structured as follows :

Introduction to lattices and geometry of numbers
Introduction to linear codes and lattices from codes
Introduction to number fields and lattices from number fields
Introduction to quaternion algebras and codes from quaternion algebras
Practical aspects : channel modeling

Branching Processes and their applications

Ibrahima Drame

Summary: In this course, we will study Galton- Watson processes, which are the simplest prototype of branching processes and are characterized by the fact that time is discrete and represents successive generations. On the other hand, we will consider branching processes in continuous time, that is, populations that reproduce and die at random times, continuously over time.

Probability and Statistics

Chiara Franceschini

Statistics in High Dimension

Frédéric van Wijland

Summary: High dimensional data are everywhere, from physical systems to the spreading of epidemics, the world of economic agents or that of neural networks and machine learning. The course aims at stressing the basic techniques underpinning our understanding of the emergence of collective behaviors in very large assemblies of interacting agents.
