Welcome to the Lie–Størmer Center. We work in pure and computational mathematics, with colleagues in Tromsø, Bergen and further afield. We hope the center gives researchers and students time to discuss ideas, work through problems and learn from one another. If your interests connect with ours, we would be glad to hear from you.
The structures behind computation.
We study algebra, geometry and topology in relation to computational mathematics, including methods that preserve mathematical structure.
Our research programme is accompanied by doctoral courses, scientific meetings and collaborations across the center’s two host universities and other institutions.
The mathematics behind the name
The center is named after Sophus Lie and Carl Størmer. Their work remains relevant to the mathematical structures and computational methods we study today.
