Mathematics Lab

The Mathematics Lab is a hub founded by Anna Wienhard and overseen by Diaaeldin Taha (Head of the Mathematics Lab), dedicated to innovative and interdisciplinary research in mathematics with three pillars: experiments and computation in mathematics, mathematics and AI, and outreach. Our aim is to create a space that not only advances mathematical research, but also highlights its beauty and practical relevance in our world.

Pillars

Mathematics and AI

The lab serves as a think tank to explore the growing interaction between mathematics and AI/machine learning at various levels (mathematical foundations, use of mathematical structures in AI, use of AI in mathematical research), as well as the appearance and the use of mathematics in other sciences.

Mathematical Visualization and Outreach

The lab is involved in outreach activities at Leipzig, including school workshops and visits, high school students (BeLL), internships, REUs, public talks, cooperation with museums, artists, and exhibitions. Through its outreach activities, the lab brings mathematics to the public and opens up new ways to engage with mathematics.

Group organizers: Jana Gregor, Joerg Lehnert, Dia Taha

Activities

Math Exhibit

The Lab hosts a Mathematics Visualization exhibit in the Library of the Max Planck Institute.
