Project: AIMS-Senegal
Decsription:
The African Institute for Mathematical Sciences AIMS-Senegal has been founded by the partnership of Vincent Rivasseau and Mamadou Sanghare supported by Neil Turok's Next Einstein Initiative. AIMS-Senegal is a new pan-African institute for post-graduate training and research in mathematical sciences opened on September 2011 in MBour and includes a newly research centre. As part of the African Institute of Mathematical Sciences Next Einstein Initiative (AIMS-NEI), AIMS-Senegal implements the AIMS-model to build an international centre of excellence in the mathematical sciences.
Based in MBour, the AIMS-Senegal campus is located in a seaside nature reserve with modern eco-architecture, inspiring views and space for many students and researchers, providing them with all the infrastructure and facilities required to be an international centre of excellence.
The research program at AIMS-Sénégal covers pure and applied fileds in mathematical sciences. Currently the research directions are: Noncommutative Algebra, Cryptography, Number theory, Partial Differential Equations, Differential Geometry and Mathematical modelling applied to fishery and ecology.The research program at AIMS-Senegal is supported by the German Federal Ministry of Education and Research via the Alexander von Humboldt Foundation and the German Academic Exchange Service (DAAD). They act as partners in the project to promote networking between AIMS Senegal and German universities as well as with other AIMS centers.
