Requirements

track Algebra & Geometry

Thesis 36 EC

Seminar Mathematics (6EC); track A&G

Scientific Writing in English (3EC)

Elective courses, possibly outside maths (15EC)

The other 60EC:

• Mandatory: at least 3 courses from the following list (in MasterMath): 


‣ Algebraic Topology (2016/17)
 ‣ Algebraic Geometry (2015/16)
 ‣ Symplectic Geometry (2016/17)
 ‣ Semisimple Lie Algebras (2016/17)
 ‣ Differential Geometry (2015/16)
 ‣ Lie Groups (2015/16)


‣ Riemann Surfaces (2015/16)
 ‣ Operator Algebras (2015/16)


‣ Algebraic Number Theory (MasterMath)

• At least two advanced courses in A&G: usually taken in the second year of the Master. These courses are often offered locally in Amsterdam and may change from year to year. In 2015/16 these are: 


‣ Tropical geometry (local, VU)
 ‣ Rigid Geometry (Mastermath)


‣ Hypergeometric functions (Mastermath/Wonder)
 ‣ Modular Forms (Mastermath)


‣ Topics in Algebraic surfaces (Mastermath/Wonder)
 ‣ Quantum groups and knot theory (local, UvA) 
 ‣ Hamiltonian Dynamics (Mastermath/Wonder)

• This leaves 24EC free to choose in mathematics.

The other 60EC:

• Mandatory: at least 3 courses from the following list (in MasterMath): 


‣ Functional Analysis


‣ Partial Differential Equations ‣ Dynamical Systems
 ‣ Numerical Linear Algebra 


• At least two advanced courses in A&DS, usually taken in the second year of the Master. These courses are mostly offered locally in Amsterdam and may

change from year to year. In 2015/16 these are: 
 ‣ Variational Methods (Mastermath)


‣ Computational Dynamics (Mastermath/Wonder)
 ‣ Hamiltonian Dynamics (MasterMath/Wonder)


‣ Numerical Methods for Stationary PDEs (MasterMath) ‣ Advanced Complex Analysis (local, UvA)
 ‣ Capita selecta Analysis and Dynamics (local, UvA) 


• This leaves 24EC free to choose in mathematics

Mathematical Physics

Interaction between the fields of general relativity and differential geometry, and between quantum mechanics and functional analysis during the first half of the early twentieth century has led us, today, into a new golden age of mathematical physics.

The Master's programme in Mathematical Physics examines the intersection of mathematics and physics on the basis of:

non-commutative geometry string theory quantisation theory operator algebras quantum groups critical phenomena conformal field theory integrable systems Lie theory algebraic geometry applied analysis and other topics.
