Research

Research_White.jpgResearch into the mathematics of physics is the core business of SwissMAP. Professors are joined by senior researchers, postdocs and PhD students in investigating topics spanning a large section of this vast area.

 

SwissMAP research activities are organised into five over-arching projects. Our mission is to bring these subjects and their interaction to a new level.
