2024 European Congress of Mathematics will be the 9th European Congress of Mathematics organized in Seville from July 15 to July 19, 2024.
Part of European Congress of Mathematicians | |
Venue | July 15 to July 19, 2024 |
---|---|
Location | Seville, Spain |
Also known as | 9ECM |
Organized by | European Mathematical Society |
The organization of mathematical events throughout Andalusia is planned, although the venue will be in Seville.[1]
Almost 2000 participants are expected to participate.[2]
History
editThe idea of organizing the European Congress in Spain came from the Royal Spanish Mathematical Society, whose president was Antonio Campillo at the time, in the autumn of 2014. He contacted the Institute of Mathematics of the University of Seville and suggested that he would opt to organize the European Congress of Mathematics. Luis Narváez, as director of the Institute, brought together a group of researchers to take the step. They worked on the candidacy to organize the 2020 Congress, but they lost to Slovenia at the Council meeting of the European Mathematical Society in Berlin in 2016. They presented a new candidacy for the 2024 Congress.[3]
In an article published in the Newsletter of the European Mathematical Society in November 2018, 28 February 2019 was set as the deadline for applications for the Congress.[4]
On 28 and 29 October 2019, a delegation from the European Mathematical Society, led by its president, Volker Mehrmann, visited Seville. After visiting the infrastructures and the Institute of Mathematics of the University of Seville, the delegation was received by the Rector, who expressed his support for the candidacy.[5][6]
On 4 July 2020, during the Council of the European Mathematical Society, Seville —against Lisbon— was chosen to host the 2024 European Mathematical Congress.[7][8]
On October 29, 2022, Antonio Muñoz, mayor of Seville, said in a tweet that "we join the organization of the great [European] Congress of Mathematics that Seville will host in 2024".[9]
On January 25, 2024, the President of the Organizing Committee of the 2024 European Congress of Mathematics, Juan González-Meneses, presented the European Congress at the 2024 Biennial Congress of the Royal Spanish Mathematical Society.[10]
On February 4, 2024, it was announced that the Ministry of University, Research and Innovation would contribute 35,000 euros for the development of the congress, and that it will have the support of other institutions such as the Ministry of Science and Innovation, the Seville City Council, the Royal Spanish Mathematical Society, the Spanish Society of Applied Mathematics, the Catalan Mathematical Society, the Society of Statistics and Operations Research and the National Association of Mathematics Students.[11][12]
In May 2024, and to celebrate the run-up to the Congress, popular mathematics magazine Plus Magazine launched Euromaths, a podcast mini-series that reviews interviews with previous Fields Medal winners who previously won a European Mathematical Society Prize. On June 3 it was with Alessio Figalli,[13] James A. Maynard[14] and on May 20 was with Hugo Duminil-Copin.[15]
On June 14, 2024, the University of Seville announced that there would be a cartographic exhibition for the Congress.[16]
Scientific aspects
editÁngel Castro and David Pérez García, researchers at the Institute of Mathematical Sciences, are guest speakers.[17]
The 2024 Combinatorial Designs and Codes conference, to be held at the University of Seville, is a satellite event of the Congress.[18] The International Congress on Numerical Semigroups, which will be held at the Jerez Campus of the University of Cadiz, is a satellite event of the Congress.[19]
