The aim of research at Mathematics Münster is the implementation of integrated approaches to solve important problems across different mathematical fields. We view mathematical research as an organic whole with countless connections between fields, and specifically promote the development of mathematical methods that lead to cross-disciplinary scientific breakthroughs.

Guided by the three unifying principles Dynamics–Geometry–Structure, we thoroughly analyse how mathematical objects dynamically evolve, consistently adopt a geometric perspective, and identify deeper, often hidden structures behind specific problems.
