2018 International Congress of Mathematicians in Rio de Janeiro

Collaboration PI, Bjorn Poonen, will speak at the 2018 International Congress of Mathematicians in Rio de Janeiro on a heuristic probabilistic model for elliptic curves. The model suggests a uniform bound for their rank over the rational numbers. Learn more

Record-setting number theory computation on Google

Collaboration PI, Andrew Sutherland, recently broke the record for the largest ever Compute Engine cluster, with 220,000 cores on Preemptible VMs, the largest known high-performance computing cluster to ever run in the public cloud. Learn more

Big Data Meets Number Theory (L-functions and Modular Forms Database (LMFDB))

Collaboration PIs Andrew Sutherland and John Voight played a key role in the launch of Release 1.0 of the LMFDB. Further details can be found in the Dartmouth and MIT press releases. Learn more

Computational Aspects of the Langlands Program

All six collaboration PIs took part in this semester long thematic program held at ICERM. Participants experimented with and articulated refined conjectures relating arithmetic-geometric objects to automorphic forms, improved the computational infrastructure underpinning the Langlands program, and assembled additional supporting data that has now been incorporated into the L-functions and Modular Forms Database (LMFDB).
