Symposium Chair: Stéphane Mallat … 17 Oct 2025 14:00 to 14:40 Event Yvon Maday Reducing complexity to master the resolution of mathematical models Opening lecture Abstract The aim of this opening lecture is to raise awareness of the mathematical modeling of complex phenomena, to explain why we try to simulate them and what we can expect from them. The notion of using mathematical models to represent certain … 19 Feb 2026 18:00 to 19:00 Event Carmine-Emanuele Cella From mimesis to katharsis: mathematical formalization and machine learning in music creation Symposium Chair: Xavier Leroy Abstract This lecture offers a reflection on the growing role of machine learning in contemporary music creation, at the intersection of artistic intuition and mathematical formalization.

Symposium Chair: Xavier Leroy Abstract It is often assumed that as AI makes regular progress in solving more and more problems in various areas, it approaches, asymptotically, the ultimate goal of artificial general intelligence (AGI).

Indeed, light itself can serve as a vector for quantum information, over long distances, while largely preserving coherence.

The questions of Alfred Binet (1857-1911) Symposium Chairman : Patrick Boucheron Abstract French psychologist Alfred Binet (1857-1911) is famous for having invented the metric intelligence scale, ancestor of the IQ, between 1904 and 1911.

Symposium Chair: Stéphane Mallat Abstract AI has already had multiple impacts on mathematics, from working collaboratively with human mathematicians by suggesting conjectures or performing smarter searches, to producing entire proofs unaided.
