  • Introduction The aim of this article is to present the main conclusions of the report on research in Catalonia for the area of mathematics. The report was published in 2005 by the institute for Catalan Studies. This is a report of the scientific activity in Catalonia in the field of mathematics during the period 1996-2002. It deals with two aspects of mathematics research. First, it provides an analysis of the country's research potential, as defined by its universities and other centers of investigation, their staff, as well as the economic resources that they obtain for research. Second, it offers an assessment of the scientific productivity of researchers from these institutions, as measured by analyzing, both quantitatively and qualitatively, articles published in specialized mathematics journals and doctoral theses submitted to universities. The data from our study are often compared with those from the report on research in mathematics corresponding to the period 1990-1996. A summary of that information and the conclusions drawn from that earlier report can be found in the article by Joan Girbau "Mathematics in Catalonia" [Contributions to Science, 2(1):111-121 (2001)].
