How does mathematics affect your daily life? How can you describe the complexity of the world using mathematics? Why did the Wall Street journal rank "Mathematician" as the best job in the world?

For this last special session of Science & Cocktails of the season, we are very pleased to have, for the first time in Copenhagen, Cédric Villani, winner of the 2010 Fields medal - considered the Nobel prize of mathematics - and a very engaged populariser of mathematics. His talk wil take us through the many realms in which mathematics influences our everyday life from economics to industry, from mobile phones to computer programming.

When you walk into a room the millions of molecules that compose the surrounding air are constantly bumping into each other in a highly intricate and complex way. As with all things in Nature, the air is trying to find equilibrium and as with all things in the Universe, the air is constantly trying to find a situation with increasing level disorder. Why doesn’t all the air all of a sudden goes to the corner of the room? Cédric Villani has spent more than 10 years of his life studying the mathematics that describe the motion of air, water and other fluids and its applications are far wider than expected, ranging from efficient industrial transport of fluids to quantum mechanics.

A journey through the life of a mathematician who is passionate for solving problems. How can the world benefit from the proof of certain mathematical theorems?
