- 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.

- Quasi-empiricism in mathematics - Quasi-empiricism in mathematics is the attempt in the philosophy of mathematics to direct philosophers' attention to mathematical practice, in particular, relations with physics, social sciences, and computational mathematics, rather than solely to issues in the foundations of mathematics. Of concern to this discussion are several topics: the relationship of empiricism (See Maddy) with mathematics, issues related to realism, ...
- Institute of Mathematics and Informatics (Bulgarian Academy of Sciences) - The Institute of Mathematics and Informatics was created in 1947 as Institute of Mathematics at the Bulgarian Academy of Sciences. Its name changed to Institute of Mathematics with Computing Centre in 1961, while from 1970 to 1988 the Institute together with the Faculty of Mathematics at Sofia University functioned in a unified structure, the Joint Centre of Mathematics and Mechanics.
- Philosophy of mathematics education - The Philosophy of mathematics education is an interdisciplinary area of study and research based on the intersection of the fields of mathematics education and the philosophy of mathematics, the latter being understood in an inclusive sense to include multidisciplinary theorizing about mathematics incorporating philosophical, sociological, anthropological, semiotic, historical, ethnomathematical, etc., perspectives.
- List of mathematics articles - This list of mathematics articles collects pointers to articles related to mathematics. These lists are not necessarily complete, but they are updated regularly using the list of mathematics categories to identify mathematics articles; therefore, an article can be added to these lists by placing it in one or more mathematical categories.
- Australian Mathematics Competition - The Australian Mathematics Competition for the Westpac Awards is a mathematics competition run by the Australian Mathematics Trust for students from year 3 up to year 12 in Australia, and their equivalent grades in other countries. Since its inception in 1976 in the Australian Capital Territory, the participation numbers have increased to around 600,000, with around 100, ...
