| Abstract | |
"Mathematics is everywhere" was the title for a panel at ICM 2014. The four panelists discussed what can be put under this title, what are the messages that can be passed to the public, and how to pass these messages. To most mathematicians, it seems obvious that mathematics is everywhere, and a living discipline within science and technology. Yet, how many of them are able to convey the message? And, when most people look around, they do not see mathematics, they do not know about the mathematics underlying the technology, they know very little about the role of mathematics in the scientific venture. Can we help building a powerful message? Can we unite forces for better passing it? (AU) | |
