Federation of Research of the Mathematical Units of Marseille (FR 2291)

Véronique Bertrand — 2009-07-03T12:53:48Z

To coordinate and formalize the already existing collaborations, the three laboratories, IML, CPT and LATP has gathered in the Federation of Research of the Mathematical Units of Marseilles (FRUMAM). The Research Federation 2291 was officially created on the first January 2001.

One of the main characteristic of scientific research in the Marseilles region is the presence of many top-class mathematical laboratories. These last years have seen a development of collaborations between mathematicians with other scientists. Besides this, there as been an harmonization of the science policy, a globalization of documentary resources and a new organization of research schemes.

Marseilles has become a unique site for research, and development of research, in pure and applied mathematics. Indeed, besides the Laboratory in Analysis, Topology and Probability (LATP, UMR 6632), at Château Gonbert, the research federation regroups the Center of Theoretical Physics (CPT, UMR 6207), the International Center for Mathematical Meetings (CIRM, UMS 822), one of only two such centers in the world, and the Luminy Institute of Mathematics (Institut Mathématiques de Luminy, UMR 6206) all three located at Luminy.

The research federation was begun in Marseilles in 1997. To coordinate and formalize already existing collaborations, the three laboratories, IML, CPT and LATP have formed the the Federation of Research of the Mathematical Units of Marseilles (FRUMAM). The Research Federation 2291 was officially created on January 1, 2001.

The federation is under the supervision of the universities of Aix-Marseille I, II and III, the Université du Sud-Toulon-Var and the CNRS.

Introduction

Véronique Bertrand — 2009-07-03T12:53:45Z

Similarly to the joint research units, the Research Federations, which are composed of several UMR or EA, are recognized by the CNRS and several other organizations. Their aim is to pool resources (Ph.D. trainings, computing resources, scientific literature) or requests for resources sent to the local administrative authorities, and to promote joint scientific initiatives : through the organization of seminars and working groups, symposia or collaborations.

There are currently nine Research Federations which are mostly focused on mathematics.

Four other federations have a mathematics section without being mainly focused on mathematics :
Research Federation : Fundamental Interactions (FR2687)
Wolfgang Döblin Institute (FR2800)
Modeling, Simulation, Fundamental Interactions (FR2914)
Research Federation on Environment for Environmental Sustainability (FR3097)

The 920520SOSI decision of July 24, 1992 such as amended, on the organization and functioning of operational research structures, provides some interesting details on the Federative Research Structures (Federative Research Institutes and Research Federations)
