Project code: Spinoza
Research group: Algorithms, Combinatorics and Optimization (PNA1)

The Spinoza project focuses on strengthening the application of methods from pure mathematics (in particular algebra, geometry, and topology) in modern and applied areas like combinatorics, optimization, and algorithmics. The project also aims at popularization of mathematics with the goal to increase the number of mathematics students.
