HSE University Wins Seven Medals at International Mathematics Competition for University Students
HSE students were among the winners of the International Mathematics Competition for University Students (IMC), which was held in August in Bulgaria. The medallists are students of the HSE Faculty of Computer Science (FCS) programme in Applied Mathematics and Information Science and the Faculty of Mathematics programme in Mathematics.

Scientists Disprove Bunkbed Conjecture
Mathematicians from Russia, including two HSE graduates, have disproven a well-known mathematical conjecture that, despite lacking solid proof, had been considered valid for 40 years. The ‘Bunkbed Conjecture’ belongs to percolation theory—a branch of mathematics that studies the formation of connected structures in independent environments.
