Workshop Women in Mathematics in Ghent (Belgium)

The theme of our Women in Mathematics Workshop centers around “Celebrating Diversity and Advancing Mathematical Frontiers.” Through this theme, we aim to spotlight the great contributions of women mathematicians across a spectrum of specialized fields, including partial differential equations, logic, combinatorics, analysis, graph theory, statistics, algebra, and geometry. This theme reflects our commitment to breaking gender barriers and challenging longstanding stereotypes within the field of mathematics.

Women in Mathematics Day in Manipal, India

“Women in Mathematics Day” is observed annually on May 12th to mark the anniversary of the eminent lady Mathematician Maryam Mirzakhani’s birth. She was a Mathematician from Iran and a Professor of Mathematics at Stanford University. She was one of the world’s leading experts in geometry and dynamical systems. In 2014, she was awarded the Fields Medal for her outstanding contributions to the dynamics and geometry of Riemann surfaces and their moduli spaces, being the first woman to be recognized for her achievements in mathematics by this prestigious mathematical prize.

Matemática x Matemáticas

El 12 de mayo celebramos el Día Internacional de las Mujeres en Matemática, en honor al nacimiento de Maryam Mirzakhani, primera mujer (hasta el momento han sido sólo dos, la segunda fue Maryna Viazovska en 2022), en recibir la Medalla Fields en 2014, por “sus contribuciones excepcionales a la dinámica y geometría de las superficies de Riemann y sus espacios móduli”.

Gioca in serie - Play with series

Institute classes, from pre-primary school to secondary school, are invited to celebrate Women in Mathematics with mathematic games. All classes or group of kids have to invent a logical series with numbers, words, shapes or something else and porpose it to other classes. Series will be collected in a dedicated Microsoft teams "Donne matematiche " and shown on school website.

OMC 9th Annual Research Forum- Algebra, Geometry and Their Applications

In the event of celebration of Women in Mathematics Day, Oman Mathematics Committee in Collaboration with the department of Mathematics at Sultan Qaboos University is planning to hold a workshop in Algebra and Geometry on May 11th, 2023.  About half of the lecturers are women in mathematics. The objective of this workshop is to gather local and international researchers in Algebra and Geometry and to give them the opportunity to collaborate and exchange research ideas. The participants of the workshop will include researchers and PhD students from the Sultanate of Oman and beyond.
