RAISING THE BAR FOR FUNDAMENTAL RESEARCH IN MATHEMATICS

The universal language of progress

Our modern world is built on the laws of mathematics. From error-correcting codes in satellite communications, to computational geometry in robotic vacuum cleaners; from encrypted electronic transactions to topological analysis in big data - what started as mathematical innovations have now become a part of daily life. Mathematics is the stem cell of innovation - adaptable, foundational, and far-reaching.

Lodha Mathematical Sciences Institute - New Beacon of Mathematical brilliance

A new beacon of mathematical brilliance

The Lodha Mathematical Sciences Institute - the only private maths research institute in India dedicated purely to research is an initiative by one of India’s largest charitable organisations, the Lodha Foundation, and is inspired by our philosophy of 'Do Good, Do Well'.

Lodha Mathematical Sciences Institute - In Pursuit of Brilliance

In pursuit of excellence

Inspired by India’s rich tradition of mathematical excellence, the Lodha Mathematical Sciences Institute seeks to build upon a legacy of innovation and analytical rigor that has shaped some of the world’s greatest contributions to mathematics. The institute will serve as a beacon of mathematical excellence, attracting the best minds from around the world and fostering a culture of intellectual curiosity and discovery.
