The Faculty of Mathematics and Computer Science is one of twelve faculties at the University of Heidelberg. It comprises the Institute of Mathematics, the Institute of Applied Mathematics, the School of Applied Sciences, and the Institute of Computer Science. The faculty maintains close relationships to the Interdisciplinary Center for Scientific Computing (IWR) and the Mathematics Center Heidelberg (MATCH). The first chair of mathematics was entrusted to the physician Jacob Curio in the year 1547.
Institute of Mathematics
In 1547, the first chair of mathematics was entrusted to the physician Jacob Curio. Today, areas of research include:
- Complex analysis: automorphic functions and modular forms
- Arithmetic: algebraic number theory, algorithmic algebra, and arithmetical geometry
- Topology and geometry: geometric partial differential equations, algebraic topology, differential topology, and differential geometry
Institute of Applied Mathematics
In 1957, Gottfried Köthe became the first director of the Institute of Applied Mathematics. Today, areas of research include:
- Probability theory and statistics: time-series analysis, nonparametrics, asymptotic statistical procedures, and computer-intensive statistical methods
- Applied analysis, numerical analysis and optimization, notably in the field of modelling and scientific computing.
Institute of Applied Sciences
In 1969, the Institute of Applied Sciences was founded. Its areas of research include:
- Media Computing, Business Computing and Health Care Computing.
- Communication, Robotics and Strategic Management.
Institute of Computer Science
In 2001, the Institute of Computer Science was founded. Today, areas of research include:
- Computability and computational complexity theory
- Efficient use of high-power computing systems
- Development, administration and use of web-based information systems
- Knowledge management in software development
