Abstract

The Institute for Computational and Experimental Research in Mathematics (ICERM) is a national institute whose mission is to catalyze fundamental research in the mathematical sciences. It focuses on the interplay between mathematics and computers, developed through computation and experimentation. ICERM pursues this mission by supporting theoretical advances related to computation, by addressing mathematical problems inspired through computer exploration, and by promoting technology aiding mathematical reasoning. Mathematics influences an ever-widening range of scientific and industrial enterprises - including artificial intelligence, cryptography, data analysis, image processing, and industrial design - and computation is at the heart of this interaction. The institute has a special focus on training the next generation in computational skills, preparing them for a variety of careers. It also hosts public events showing the beauty and impact of mathematical sciences research and computational advances. ICERM convenes leading scientists from academia and industry, together with students and early-career researchers, in programs that generate new mathematics and accelerate the development of technology arising from these results. The institute pursues its goals through semester-long programs, with support for postdoctoral fellows and graduate students; week-long workshops disseminating the latest research and catalyzing new collaborations; and small-group research activiti
