A well-known equation: a pen + a slightly grey whiteboard (it has had a lot of hammer this term) + Philip Maini = the perfect student lecture Philip on Differential Equations, our latest to be made public: https://t.co/lpfz3TvdvC

President Trump says it perfectly. A patchwork of 50 different state systems creates a maze of conflicting regulations, resulting in chaos. Follow me to join the conversation on leading the AI revolution.

Humanity has always pursued knowledge for its own sake. That pursuit has led us to some amazing places. Not least in mathematics. @xtxmarkets has made a substantial gift to @OxUniMaths to support early career researchers working in pure mathematics. https://t.co/gxw3bNntud

A puzzle from the Age of Enlightenment. Though three centuries of enlightenment haven't made it any less surprising. Watch Robin Wilson's talk on the history of the endless number. It's π time: https://t.co/LpoAROlpj9

Mathematics and physics often seem to occupy a world that seems designed to exclude. Higher dimensions are one of the best (or worst) examples. Four dimensions are just a start. Why not 5? Or 10? And they don't stop there. They're a challenge for mathematicians too. Here's Luci.

Where on earth is the best laboratory to demonstrate the beauty of fluid dynamics? Actually, it’s not on earth. Here is the story of the soft cell. And a longer read: https://t.co/POcY3tQVZx @Axiom_Space @NASA

Our inaugural Regius Professor of Mathematics, Andrew Wiles, retires in 2026 (not that mathematicians ever truly retire) and we are looking for his successor, starting in October of that year. Full details: https://t.co/ZyI2rRPGcn

Do you take your work home with you? It's kinda hard to avoid if you are a mathematician. The maths just follows you wherever you go. Sam Howison prepares vegetables.

We're kicking off our next series of student lectures with a hot topic as Ian Hewitt's 'Mathematical Geoscience' 4th year lecture looks at the mathematics, physics and chemistry behind models of the Earth's temperature. Watch: https://t.co/4zIC4ETQcl

Government got problems. Climate got problems. Energy policy got problems. We all got problems. So we need a wide range of people to hang out together to tackle them. Becky Crossley describes an @evidence_house hackathon (no, not that sort of hackathon).

The freedom to go for it for three years? Our Hooke & Titchmarsh Fellowships in pure & applied mathematics give you the space to follow a research path of your choice, a path that has proved instrumental in the careers of many previous fellows. Details: https://t.co/E82WFz5aUV
