from an Ukrainian mathematician [День незалежності України]

“Thank you for the message. We are still in (…). Here the life is quiet, only 2-3 air raid alert every day, but since no rocket hit the city yet, people do not care too much about the sounds of sirens. Unfortunately the situation in my city Kharkiv is still very bad and we can not come back. Our institute is still working online, so I still have my salary. But I am very tired of this life of refugees, although I am aware that my problems are \epsilon-size problems, comparing with problems of other Ukrainian people.”

Dauphine mathematician in Tunisian government!

Our colleague at Dauphine Elyès Jouini (who also is the vice-president for research) joined the new Tunisian government as the Minister for economic reforms (Ministre auprès du premier ministre chargé des réformes économiques et sociales et de la coordination avec les ministères concernés). A praiseworthy if challenging move! All the best, Elyès!
