Question

Describe new or latest trends in mathematical research concerning functions

Answer 1

Internally driven research within the mathematical sciences is showing an increasing amount of collaboration and research that involves two or more fields within the discipline. Some of the most exciting advances have built on fields of study—for example, probability and combinatorics—that had not often been brought together in the past. This change is nontrivial because large bodies of knowledge must be internalized by the investigator(s).
