Are #quantum proofs (solutions) stronger than classical proofs? I cover this in my latest blog- bit.ly/4sv0L5j

Graphic layout featuring a dark blue header with the “HMS – Her Maths Story” logo at the top. Centered below is a black panel displaying a gold tree made of numbers, mathematical symbols (including π), and teal flowers, with the word “Mathemagica” in gold beneath it. The lower section has a light textured background with the title “The Magic in the Numbers: The Story of Mathemagica” and the byline “By Shreya Roychoudhury.”
Check out our latest blog post by Shreya Roychoudhury, the founder of Mathemagica (Instagram: @math.emagica): “I am an engineer, a founder, and a woman who refuses to be subtracted from the equation.”

Portrait of Mikaela Iacobelli, an associate professor, smiling at the camera. She has shoulder-length light brown hair and is wearing small stud earrings and a navy blue top. The background behind her is a soft light blue. The overall graphic features a slate-blue backdrop with the “HMS – Her Maths Story” logo centered at the top. Her headshot is framed in the middle, and below it, on a torn-paper style white overlay, her name “Mikaela Iacobelli” appears in large black text, with “Associate Professor” written underneath in smaller capital letters.
“(...) what I like most about mathematics: there is room for many different trajectories, as long as you keep following questions that genuinely interest you.” - Mikaela Iacobelli

I love going on the hunt for heart motifs in #math processes. Here's our try from a recent Bridges #MathArt paper. ms-math-computer.science/preprint/202...
This was a fun piece to write! I learnt quite a bit about the evolution of #math symbols while working on it. Thank you Alex Bellos, Amir Alexander, Kate Kitagawa, Raul Rojas & @sarah-hart.bsky.social for the nice conversations.

#Efeméride La matemática Rózsa Péter (1905-1977) nació un 17 de febrero.
Es conocida por sus trabajos sobre la teoría de funciones recursivas.
Third week of retirement and Lothar is doing much better. The sun is shining and the research project I came up with (to distract him) is going well, just like our first paper together. FIngers crossed we can finish this as fast.
In theory it could go on arxiv for our 35th anniversary 🥰.

A person stands in a modern science exhibit space with their arms outstretched as if welcoming visitors. They are wearing a red shirt and loose-fitting pink trousers. Behind them is an intricate wall of geometric wooden shelving shaped like hexagons and trapezoids, filled with scientific models, a chalkboard, and a large glass terrarium containing lush green plants.
A close-up of three curved, horn-shaped metal sculptures resting on a light-colored wooden table. The sculptures have a distinct weathered green patina and are hollow at the ends. The table surface features a decorative pattern of small, recessed circles. In the background, the lower half of a person sitting at the table is partially visible.
A wide-angle view of a bustling, high-ceilinged museum room filled with visitors. A long, curving banner displaying an extensive sequence of the digits of Pi hangs prominently from the ceiling. People are scattered throughout the space, interacting with exhibits and gathered around wooden tables etched with branching patterns. The room is framed by wooden walls and geometric shelving packed with scientific displays.
A view through an open bright orange door into a museum gallery. Above the doorway, a backlit sign reads "BIOLOGIE & MATHÉMATIQUES 3" in French. Inside the dimly lit room, several people are gathered in conversation. The exterior wall is made of horizontal wooden planks, creating a warm, workshop-like atmosphere.
Another highlight from the #illustratingMath trimester at the Institut Henri Poincaré this month was a visit to the @palaisdecouverte.bsky.social . We had a great time with Robin, who showed us the different items from their mathematical cabinet of curiosities. Visit them if you have the chance!

100 % agree, especially for #firstgen students support networks & mentoring programmes can make a huge difference. 🤍
Portrait of Christina Runkel, a postdoctoral researcher, smiling at the camera. She has long hair, is wearing a brown coat and a maroon turtleneck and sits outdoors on a city street, where historic buildings are in the background. The image includes the Her Maths Story logo and her name and title.
“Becoming part of a mentoring scheme is also some of the advice I would give to my 18-year-old self too — to look out for networking opportunities and mentorship programmes; to find people who have chosen a similar path.” - Christina Runkel

Are you interested in communicating maths to non-expert audiences? Then you may be interested in our event at the Isaac Newton Institute in Cambridge on Jan 29. We have a bunch of interesting speakers, including 2 Zeeman medal winners! Registration is still open gateway.newton.ac.uk/event/tgm156/
A dark blue celebratory graphic marking the 5-year anniversary of Her Maths Story. The HMS logo appears at the top. Large white text reads “5 years” in the centre, surrounded by yellow star shapes. Additional text highlights milestones: 99 contributors, 200K website visitors, 194 countries reached via the website, and 4.9K followers across social media platforms.
5 years ago today, Her Maths Story went live with our 1st story. What started as a small idea has grown into a global, supportive community celebrating #WomenInMaths. We’re deeply grateful to everyone who has shared, read, supported & believed in this journey. Here’s to the stories still to come 💛✨
800 followers 🤩 It's great to see so many people interested in #illustratingMath and #MathArt. This year is off to a great start with the trimester at the IHP in Paris. Will deliver regular updates on our activities here. Please tell a friend if you think they'd be interested in this content.
"I read a lot of mathematical literature and noticed with regret that, over the course of history, presentations had become more sober and formal, and that human emotions and accompanying epistemological considerations had been largely stripped away in the face of mathematical discoveries." 👈
Portrait of Lisa Hefendehl-Hebeker, a senior professor, smiling at the camera. She has short curly gray hair, wears glasses and a blue patterned blouse, and stands in front of a blue FAU backdrop. The image includes the Her Maths Story logo and her name and title.
“(...) It is possible to create an authentic picture of #mathematics and convey an impression of how mathematics forms its own world of well-ordered structures with a striking internal consistency (...)” - Lisa Hefendehl-Hebeker

Comprehensive presentation of the "Theorem of the Day", starting with a statement of this theorem. The First Isomorphism Theorem : Let G and H be groups and f : G → H a homomorphism of G to H with image Im(f) and kernel ker(f). Then G/ ker(f) and Im(f) are isomorphic groups: G/ ker(f) ≃ Im(f).

There is a picture of Marta Lazzaretti on the top left, next to it there’s is a text saying “meet our new team member: Marta Lazzaretti” and below is a grey box with information on her education, background, expertise, passion and a quote.
After a cosy winter break, Her Maths Story is kicking off the new year - and we’re excited to welcome Marta Lazzaretti to the team who will be taking care of our social media channels.
Here’s to a new chapter and a great year ahead 💜
