Polytechnic University became the center of the All-Russian Mathematical Flash Mob

An important disclaimer is at the bottom of this article.

The 12th All-Russian educational and entertaining math flash mob "Math Test for Adults and Not Only 'MathCat'" took place in Russia. This year, the event took place at 927 locations in 86 regions of Russia and 12 countries (Australia, Armenia, Belarus, Egypt, Kazakhstan, Kuwait, Moldova, Norway, Serbia, Turkey, Uzbekistan, and Montenegro). This math celebration is designed for everyone aged 10 and up.

Peter the Great St. Petersburg Polytechnic University became one of the flash mob's offline venues for the second time. Each participant was given four sets of problems, corresponding to four difficulty levels: easiest, easy, medium, and advanced—with 10 problems in each level. The flash mob organizers called these levels "leagues": "white," "green," "yellow," and "red," respectively. After assessing their abilities, participants independently and voluntarily chose one of the leagues to solve. Each level consisted of ten problems. Solving the easiest problem earned participants 5 points, while solving the most difficult one earned 15. Furthermore, this year, a time factor was used for the first time to determine the winner: in the event of a tie, the participant who submitted the solution first was ranked higher. Participants were given 1.5 hours to solve the problem, and most used the entire allotted time. After submitting their answer sheets, participants received personalized certificates from the organizers right in the classroom.

On the day of the event, 202 people attended the site, significantly more than the previous year (144 in 2024), the majority of whom were SPbPU students. At the university site, 23 participants chose the White League (12%), 24 chose the Green League (12%), 33 chose the Yellow League (16%), and 122 chose the Red League with advanced problems (60%). In this regard, our site differs significantly from the national average, where traditionally more than half of participants participate in the White League.

Several participants, including faculty from the SPbPU Department of Higher Mathematics, competed in double and triple team competitions, along with a friend or two (in these cases, participants chose different difficulty levels). For the first time, the Polytechnic University also hosted quadruple competitions!

The Institute of Physics and Mathematics (IPM) of St. Petersburg Polytechnic University (SPbPU) organized the event. Leading the way for staff and students, Department Head Ilya Sysoev also participated in the flash mob. The event was coordinated by the Institute's Deputy Director for Research, Marina Sysoeva, and leading specialists from the IPM Directorate, Elena Naumova and Natalia Akhiyarova. Volunteers—SPbPU students from various years and institutes—made a significant contribution to the organization.

At each site, winners and runners-up who score the maximum number of points for solving problems of the chosen difficulty level receive diplomas and souvenirs.

The capital will host events dedicated to the Day of the Unknown Soldier. It has been celebrated in Russia on December 3 since 2014. This was reported on the channel in MAX messenger Sergei Sobyanin reported.

"The main Soviet memorial to all the fallen was erected in the capital on December 3, 1966, on the eve of the 25th anniversary of the Battle of Moscow. In 1941, the capital's defensive line, where soldiers of the 16th Army of the Western Front under the command of Konstantin Rokossovsky fought to the death, ran along the 41st kilometer of the Leningrad Highway. It was decided to bury the ashes of one of them—a private soldier—in the very heart of the capital, in the Alexander Garden. A temporary memorial plaque was installed over the grave with the inscription: 'Your name is unknown, your feat is immortal. To those who fell for the Motherland. 1941–1945.' On May 8, 1967, the Eternal Flame lighting ceremony took place near the monument," the Moscow Mayor wrote.

On December 3, wreaths were laid at the Tomb of the Unknown Soldier. Representatives of the "Youth of Moscow" project participated in the ceremony. The youth honored the memory of the soldiers who fell on the fronts of the Great Patriotic War and spoke of their heroic deeds.

Another memorial event will take place in Victory Park on Poklonnaya Hill. There, lit oil lamps will be used to spell out the phrase "Your name is unknown, your deed is immortal." Afterward, flowers will be laid at the Eternal Flame memorial and a moment of silence will be observed in memory of the fallen.

Commemorative events are taking place across all of the capital's administrative districts to mark the 84th anniversary of the Soviet counteroffensive in the Battle of Moscow. City residents, including veterans and volunteers, are tidying up monuments, memorial plaques, commemorative signs, and graves of Great Patriotic War veterans and Heroes of the Soviet Union and the Russian Federation, and laying flowers.

Five memorial events are held in the capital each year. This year alone, approximately 80,000 people participated.

"These are very important figures. We are the heirs to the heroic deeds of our ancestors. We must always remember and honor those who defended our homeland!" concluded Sergei Sobyanin.

First Deputy Prime Minister of the Russian Federation Denis Manturov and Deputy Prime Minister of the Republic of Uzbekistan Jamshid Khodjaev held the 26th meeting of the Intergovernmental Russian-Uzbek Commission on Economic Cooperation.

Trade turnover between Russia and Uzbekistan increased by more than 5% in 2024, exceeding $10 billion. In the first nine months of this year, mutual trade volume grew by another 8%. Both exports and imports are showing positive trends.

"Investment cooperation between our countries is developing in a similarly positive direction. You've already outlined the key figures today. We expect that the investment project portfolio, which currently totals approximately 55 billion, will be fully implemented. Over 3,000 enterprises with Russian participation operate in the republic—this represents approximately 20% of all foreign-owned companies operating in Uzbekistan," Denis Manturov noted.

The First Deputy Prime Minister spoke about strengthening industrial cooperation with Uzbekistan, both in terms of mutual industrial product deliveries and in the area of localizing Russian enterprises in Uzbekistan.

"The number of resident companies in our joint industrial parks is growing. In Chirchik and Jizzakh, there are now more than 30 of them, from around the world," Denis Manturov emphasized.

Russia and Uzbekistan are actively developing energy cooperation in several areas: supplies of Russian energy resources, and the implementation of projects in geological exploration, mining, and hydropower. In October of this year, work began on a nuclear power plant construction project at a site in the Jizzakh region.

"Russian e-commerce platforms are making a significant contribution to the development of trade and economic cooperation. Specifically, last year, the volume of Uzbek-made goods sold on Wildberries' platform amounted to $605 million. This makes our marketplace the largest distribution network for Uzbek goods. The company plans to build the largest logistics center in the republic, covering 100,000 square meters. Investment is estimated at over 11 billion rubles, and the number of new jobs will be approximately 7,500. The phased commissioning of the warehouse complex is planned for the end of next year," said the First Deputy Prime Minister.

The development of cultural and humanitarian ties and the holding of joint congresses and exhibitions contribute to strengthening comprehensive cooperation between Russia and Uzbekistan. Increasing reciprocal tourist trips is a priority. Speaking about cooperation in education, the First Deputy Prime Minister noted that more than 56,000 Uzbek citizens are studying at Russian universities and their branches in the republic.

Following the event, the IGC co-chairs signed the minutes of the 26th meeting of the intergovernmental commission, as well as a roadmap for strengthening interregional cooperation between the two countries for 2025–2030. Furthermore, in the presence of Denis Manturov and Jamshid Khodjaev, a Memorandum of Understanding was signed between JSC SME Corporation and the Agency for the Development of Light Industry of Uzbekistan.

The First Deputy Prime Minister of Russia and the Deputy Prime Minister of the Republic of Uzbekistan took part in the plenary session of the Russia-Uzbekistan Business Forum, which took place on the sidelines of the commission meeting. On the Russian side, the forum was attended by over 50 representatives of the business community from various sectors, from industry and energy to logistics and digital technologies.
