Note from June 29, 2020
Although we do not yet know how long the social distancing related to the Covid-19 pandemic will last, and regardless of the changes that had to be made in the evaluation of the June 2020 session in relation to what is provided for in this learning unit description, new learnig unit evaluation methods may still be adopted by the teachers; details of these methods have been - or will be - communicated to the students by the teachers, as soon as possible.

Prerequisites
Depending on the subject, mathematics skills at the level of the end of the Bachelor in Mathematics or first year Master in Mathematics.
Main themes
The topic considered varies from year to year depending on the research interests of the course instructor.
Aims
At the end of this learning unit, the student is able to : | |
| 1 |
Contribution of the course to learning outcomes in the Master in Mathematics programme. By the end of this activity, students will have made progress in: - Show evidence of independent learning. - Analyse a mathematical problem and suggest appropriate tools for studying it in depth. - Begin a research project thanks to a deeper knowledge of one or more fields and their problematic issues in current mathematics. He will have made progress in: -- Develop in an independent way his mathematical intuition by anticipating the expected results (formulating conjectures) and by verifying their consistency with already existing results. -- Ask relevant and lucid questions on an advanced mathematical topic in an independent manner. Learning outcomes specific to the course. The course aims to initiate research in the field under consideration. Specific learning outcomes vary depending on the field. |
