A small group of computer scientists and mathematicians from industry and academia convened in a historical home (“Said Halim Pasha Palace”) overlooking the Bosphorus Straits to discuss several difficult problems they and others in similar fields are tackling. The motivation of the Open Problems in Mathematical and Computational Sciences Conference was to enable and encourage the academic commu...

In this paper we give solutions of certain diophantine equations related to triangular and tetrahedral numbers and propose several problems connected with these numbers. The material of this paper was presented in part at the 11th International Workshop for Young Mathematicians NUMBER THEORY, Kraków, 14th20th september 2008.

We present a study in which mathematicians and undergraduate students were asked to explain writing what mean by proof. The 175 responses evaluated using comparative judgement: compared pairs of their judgements used construct scaled rank order. provide evidence establishing the reliability, divergent validity content this approach investigating individuals’ written conceptions mathematical In ...

Hello everybody! Welcome to this special issue of our Newsletter. It is dedicated to the first PhD-Day organized by the Society to give the opportunity to young Belgian Mathematicians to advertise their work as researchers in mathematics. Organizer of this event: the Belgian Mathematical Society On this day, opportunity is given to Belgian PhD students to present their research and to get to kn...
