Abstract:
The goal of this project is to promote the development of mathematics in Madagascar, particularly at the University of Antananarivo. The conferences and guest speakers invited by this project cover various fields of mathematics. They aim to provide new research perspectives in mathematics and its applications for professors, doctoral students, and students in mathematics and computer science at the University of Antananarivo, as well as other universities in Madagascar. It also serves as an inspiration for mathematics students to see their seniors from the University of Antananarivo succeeding in mathematical careers both in Madagascar and abroad.
Keywords: Philosophy of Mathematics, Formal Calculus, Non-Associative Algebras, Number Theory, Probability and Statistics, Theoretical Computer Science, Graph Theory, Harmonic Analysis, Lie algebras computation, Learning Mathematics.
1 Conference Details
1.1 Conference Framework
The project involves organizing a series of lectures given by local and international speakers over the course of a week, from March 10 to March 13, 2025. This event is part of three celebrations: the first is the tenth anniversary of the Doctoral School of Mathematics and Applications (EDMA, 2015-2025); the second is an opportunity to thank the professors, associate professors, and assistants at EDMA and the Departments of Mathematics, Computer Science, and Technology who will be retiring this year; and the third is the celebration of the International Day of Mathematics on March 14, 2025, in collaboration with the Mathematics and Computer Science Student Association of the University of Antananarivo (AEMIA). The honorees include Professors Michel Rajoelina, Victor Harison, and Arthur Randrianarivony; Associate Professors Armand Ramamonjisoa, Alain Ralambo, Olivier Robinson, Joseph Rakotondralambo, Andriantsoa Sandrataniaina, Martial Razafimahaleo, Sylvain Ramaromanana, Alexis Célestin Rafalimanana, Arsène Ramamonjisoa; and Research Assistants Aimé Rajaonera, Jacqueline Floria Raveloarisoa, Robert Rabarison, and Emile Andrianjanahary. Remark that EDMA has organized with success one conference in honour of Emeritus Professor Frédéric Manelo Anona in March 2023 with support of IMU-CDC Project Grant Program 2022 (for the 2 speakers in the Conference) and local funding.
1-2 Project Objectives of the conferences
The objective of this project is to develop mathematics in Madagascar, particularly at the University of Antananarivo. It provides teachers and doctoral students in mathematics with new research opportunities, not only at the host institution, the University of Antananarivo, but also at other universities in Madagascar with mathematics departments. The selection of speakers is aimed at fostering scientific collaboration between researchers from foreign universities and those from the EDMA at the University of Antananarivo. Likewise, students and doctoral candidates will be encouraged to draw inspiration from the careers of these speakers, many of whom are alumni of the University of Antananarivo, now working at the university and approaching retirement, or at foreign universities, particularly in the United States.
1-3 Target audience
Professors, Associate Professors, Assistants, Doctoral Students, and Master's and Bachelor's students in Mathematics and Computer Science from the University of Antananarivo and other universities in Madagascar, such as the University of Fianarantsoa, the University of Toamasina, the University of Antsiranana, and the University of the Comoros.

- Detailed Conference Plan
The conference will last for four consecutive days, from March 10 to 13, 2025, with two lectures each half-day. At the beginning of each session, there will be a brief overview of the work of each mathematician honored by the event. If the main speaker is present either online or in person, the substitute will serve as the moderator of the session. The topics covered are diverse but remain within the fields of mathematics and their applications. The conference is in English or in French following the choice of each lecturer:
