The Centre de Recerca Matemàtica (CRM) (Catalan pronunciation: [ˈsentɾə ðə rəˈsɛɾkə mətəˈmatikə]) is a consortium, with its own legal status, integrated by the Institut d'Estudis Catalans (IEC)[1] and the Catalan Government.
[2] It is a research institute associated with the Universitat Autònoma de Barcelona.
The CRM is in essence a horizontal infrastructure that gives support to mathematical research groups and encourages the pursuit of emerging lines of research.
The first category places the centre as organiser of international competitions (intensive research programmes, advances courses, conferences, etc.)
The CRM is a member of ERCOM (European Research Centres in Mathematics).
