Stockholm University to acquire a prominent place in Scandinavian
mathematics. The department consists of two divisions: mathematics and
mathematical statistics. The research thrusts in the division of
mathematics include algebra, geometry and combinatorics, analysis and
logic. During the last decade the division has almost doubled the
number of students. The research thrusts in mathematical statistics
include probability theory and statistical inference theory, with
applications in biostatistics, climatology, econometrics, finance and
