Can AI make tasks faster — yet slow down the workflow?
In our new paper with Silvia Bartolucci from @uclfincomp, "Queue & AI: When Faster Tasks Slow Down the Workflow", we show why average task speed can be misleading. [https://t.co/AEJHY4KZmw]
This week, some of our students visited the @UKHouseofLords for the all party parliamentary engineering group. It was a very interesting visit, our students asked pertinent questions and represented the school in a positive way!
We hope our @kingsartshums, @KingsNMES and @KingsSSPP students have a great graduation day. Visit the Alumni Desk to register for your free stage clip. And tag us into your fancy fashion pics.

Looking forward to visiting @kclmathematics@KingsCollegeLon this Thursday to talk about my PhD student's work on "Uncovering Dependency Structures in Multivariate Markov Chain Models" -- very excited to catch up with @Beta_GOS and other friends too!
🚨 NEW PHASE TRANSITION ALERT 🚨
We just posted a paper on arXiv that extends the famous BBP transition to the case of sparse noise!
The "ASV transition" shows when PCA can recover signals from sparse corruption - beyond classical random matrix theory. [https://t.co/weWF3837ss]

The Department of Mathematics at King's College London is delighted to share the installation of a geometric discovery, right here at King's!
This week, we hosted a virtual talk from Professor Gábor Domokos and received our own Gömböc from Hungarian Ambassador, Dr Ferenc Kumin.
Big congratulations to Francesca Di Lodovico @Francesca_DL and Dr Ana-Maria Raclariu who have both received awards from the Institute of Physics @PhysicsNews for their groundbreaking contributions to the field of physics. 👏

This past Sunday, @KingsCollegeLon hosted the latest edition of the London Verbal Maths Challenge. Over 100 pupils from across London took part in this unique verbal Olympiad, which opens the door to Maths Circles at some of London’s top universities.
Ten years on, University Maths Schools are changing lives.
A new study by the Observatory for Mathematical Education, commissioned by U-Maths, finds that students at these schools achieve higher A Level grades and are significantly more likely to progress to the UK’s most selective STEM universities than comparable students elsewhere.
The benefits are greatest for girls, under-represented groups and those from low-income backgrounds - proof that Maths Schools are fulfilling their mission to open doors for the next generation of mathematical scientists.

This week our students attended an amazing talk organised by G-Research. From the maths of Navier-Stokes to the CFD engineering of Williams F1, it was an incredible and inspiring experience for everyone who attended.
Prof Dionysios Anninos is applying #quantum physics to help identify the dark energy driving the expansion of our universe. He is among 64 academics joining King's as part of a major investment into interdisciplinary sciences.

Our mathematicians spent the weekend at Green Man Festival, teaming up with Cambridge researchers.
From black holes to cosmic expansion, curious minds of all ages got hands-on with spacetime, warped images with gravity and even learned how to build a Universe.🪐
UPDATE: Clearing is closed! 🧪
The Faculty of Natural, Mathematical and Engineering Sciences at King’s has no more available places for studying in the 2025/26 academic year! 🥼
Congratulations to those who joined us today! See you on campus next month! 🔭
