Asia-Pacific Mathematical Network

Time:14:00:27/11/2026 to 11:00:28/11/2026

Venue/Location: Vietnam Institute for Advanced Study in Mathematics (VIASM), 161 Chua Lang Str., Lang Ward, Hanoi.

1. Objectives:

Asia-Pacific Mathematical Network initiated by the Vietnam Institute for Advanced Study in Mathematics (VIASM), aims to establish a network of institutes for mathematical research and applications across the Asia-Pacific region.
The Network will focus on several key activities, including: (1) organizing flagship annual event featuring big open problems and trends in mathematics; (2) creating a postdoc exchange program and a research in pairs program; and (3) Creating series of thematic conferences, while strengthening training, networking, and support for young mathematicians. In addition, the Network aims to expand mathematical outreach activities, promote cross-country student mathematical competitions for university students, foster connections between mathematical research and industry, and provide expert input on policies related to the development of mathematics.
As part of the activity, Forum “Mathematics and AI” will also be held to broaden discussions beyond regional research collaboration and address timely and strategic issues concerning the future of mathematics in the context of the rapid development of AI.
