Support and research units and thematic networks

The support and research units (UAR) and thematic networks (RT) carry out, at national level and in a spirit of pooling, the various support functions necessary for the proper development of mathematical research. They provide :

• pooled computing resources provided by the Mathrice thematic network , which is also the professional network for people in charge of systems and network administration ;
• Documentary resources, coordinated by the Réseau national des bibliothèques de mathématiques (RNBM), a professional network of documentalists and librarians in the Insmi's laboratories, and by the Jacques Hadamard library at Orsay, a national reference library; support for the publication of open access French mathematical journals via the UAR Mathdoc, which is developing anopen access scientific publishing platform (the Mersenne centre) and a digital library (Numdam);
• conference centres where you can organise or take part in scientific events and meet mathematicians from all walks of life: the Institut Henri Poincaré (IHP) and the Centre international de rencontres mathématiques (CIRM);
• a network for exchanging and sharing experiences on the dissemination of mathematics, the AuDiMath thematic network ;
• assistance in developing relations with industry, provided by the Agency for Mathematics in Interaction with Industry and Society (AMIES);
• The CNRS Open Research Data Division (DDOR) develops and implements CNRS data policy. The Gricadunit pools computing skills and expertise at regional level on the Grenoble site;
• The Artificial Intelligence for Science, Science for Artificial Intelligence (AISSAI) centre, shared with CNRS Sciences informatiques.
