- Steklov Institute at St.Petersburg - The mathematics institute of Russian Academy of Sciences, consisting of 11 laboratories - mathematical physics, geometry and topology, number theory, algebra, mathematical analysis, mathematical physics, mathematical problems of physics, mathematical problems of statistical physics, statistical methods, representation theory and computing mathematics, mathematical problems of geophysics.
- Department of Mathematical Sciences - Offers BA and MA degrees in mathematics and mathematics with specialization in actuarial science, computer systems and software engineering, operations research, and statistics. Concentrations are also offered in mathematics, statistics, and mathematics for physics majors.
- (UK) University of Oxford - Oxford Mathematical Finance Group, part of the Oxford Centre for Industrial and Applied Mathematics and one of the largest UK research groups in mathematics applied to finance. Members of the group work on a range of applications of mathematics in finance, including classical and non-classical market models, theoretical and numerical aspects of derivatives pricing, crash modelling and credit risk. The group's approach is practically oriented with extensive interaction with practitioners.
- Mathematics and Statistics - Offers programs with options in pure and applied mathematics, and applied statistics. Research encompasses core areas of analysis, computational mathematics, discrete mathematics, geometry and topology, mathematical biology, mathematical physics, nonlinear systems, and probability and statistics. Includes program, course, admissions information, faculty and contact details.
- Inconsistent Mathematics - Inconsistent mathematics is the study of the mathematical theories that result when classical mathematical axioms are asserted within the framework of a (non-classical) logic which can tolerate the presence of a contradiction without turning every sentence into a theorem. By Chris Mortensen, from the Stanford Encyclopedia.
- Mathematical Structures Group - Research topics include mathematical models and theories in the empirical sciences, models and theories in mathematics, category theory, and the use of mathematical structures in theoretical computer science. Bibliographic data.
- CQF Mathematical Finance Forum - A bulletin board dedicated to financial mathematics, mathematical finance, quantitative finance, and related fields including probability, statistics, econometrics, and optimisation.
- Mathematics in Medicine - 2nd Mathematics in Medicine Study Group. Focus of conference was to find new ways of solving medical problems through the use of mathematical models. Five medical problems were presented to the group. The mathematicians, along with the scientists worked on developing mathematical models of the problems. Page includes summary report. University of Nottingham, UK; 10 -- 14 September 2001.
- Indispensability Arguments in the Philosophy of Mathematics - From the fact that mathematics is indispensable to science, some philosophers have drawn serious metaphysical conclusions. In particular, Quine and Putnam have argued that the indispensability of mathematics to empirical science gives us good reason to believe in the existence of mathematical entities. From the Stanford Encyclopedia.
- Mathematical Finance - A journal published by Blackwells which brings together work on the mathematical aspects of finance theory from such diverse fields as finance, economics, mathematics, and statistics. Contents, abstracts: text to subscribers only.

- Mathematical model - A mathematical model is an abstract model that uses mathematical language to describe the behaviour of a system. Mathematical models are used particularly in the natural sciences and engineering disciplines (such as physics, biology, and electrical engineering) but also in the social sciences (such as economics, sociology and political science); physicists, engineers, computer scientists, and economists use ...
- Mathematical Olympiad Cell - The Mathematical Olympiad Cell (MO Cell) is a body of permanent faculty devoted to organizing and conducting the mathematical Olympiads in India, in particular, the Indian National Mathematical Olympiad and the International Mathematical Olympiad Training Camp. The MO Cell has two main members:
- Mathematical formulation of quantum mechanics - The mathematical formulation of quantum mechanics is the body of mathematical formalisms which permits a rigorous description of quantum mechanics. It is distinguished from mathematical formalisms for theories developed prior to the early 1900s by the use of abstract mathematical structures, such as infinite-dimensional Hilbert spaces and operators on these spaces.
- Mathematical maturity - Mathematical maturity is a loose term used by mathematicians that refers to a mixture of mathematical experience and insight that cannot be directly taught, but instead comes from repeated exposure to complex mathematical concepts.
- Nordic mathematical competition - The Nordic Mathematical Competition (NMC; also known as the Nordic Mathematical Contest) has been organized yearly since 1987, after in the International Mathematical Olympiad of 1986 the leaders of the five Nordic teams agreed that their students need experience at a level more difficult than that of their national competitions. The responsibility for organizing the NMC rotates among ...
