China s support for mathematics and applied mathematics research between this year and 2025 will be unprecedented because mathematicians can solve equations that are fundamental to overcoming major technology bottlenecks, an academician said.
The Ministry of Science and Technology has listed mathematics and its applications as a major national project during the 14th Five-Year Plan (2021-25) period. The project is expected to receive 1.5 billion yuan ($231.9 million) in funding, said Yuan Yaxiang, a mathematician and academician of the Chinese Academy of Sciences. Yuan is also a member of the Natio
