The Vietnam SciMath Database Project is a product of the mathematical research history initiative led by Professor Ngo Bao Chau (Ngô Bảo Châu), a Vietnamese-French mathematician who won the Fields Medal in 2010. This particular project received early assistance from the research team at ISR, Phenikaa University, and AISDL (Vuong & Associates), under the leadership of Dr. Vuong Quan Hoang (Vương Quân Hoàng).
The SciMath Database was used to produce the first technical report for the meeting of the Vietnam Institute for Advanced Study in Mathematics (VIASM) on November 13, 2020 [1].
Its early results have been encouraging as the database enables researchers and the public to better appreciate the past and present contributions of generations of Vietnamese mathematicians to the development of the field. In addition, their networks and significance of works can also be observed in a context.
The project is still ongoing.
