The Law Research Centre Antoine Favre is the research center University Savoie Mont Blanc law school which is located in Chambéry. For some years, the Research center membership and activities have greatly increased. It currently has nearly fifty members, including about twenty Phd students. Its main activities may be classified into three major transversal legal fields :The Research Center is involved in national and European research programs and networks. It now aims at developing its international cooperations. It has linguistic skills (especially in English and Italian) and is willing to welcome visiting professors or foreign researchers/scholars specialized in the center's fields of competence.

UMR 5127 - CNRS / USMB

Faculty: UFR Sciences and Mountain

PhD school: Mathematics, Information Sciences and Technologies, Computer studies(MST2I)

LAMA is made up of three teams doing research focused on mathematics, applied mathematics and mathematics and computer sciences. Our common denominator is the quality of the basic research, on the one hand, as well as a concern for its applications. These applications are in other sciences (geophysics, physics, biology, mechanics and computer sciences) or in other mathematical fields (geometry applied to control theory, discrete geometry) or in the field of teaching.

Fields of transversal skills: ■ Fundamental Science, Earth sciences and Environment,■ Technologies: Mechatronics, Energy conservation-Civil Engineering, Digital technologies

Key words; EDP ■ Probabilities ■ Shape optimisation ■ Modeling ■ Real algebraic geometry ■ Moderate real, non- Archimedean geometry ■ Motivic Integration ■ Finsler geometry ■ Real singularities ■ Sub Riemannian geometry and control theory ■ Lambda-calculations ■ Theory of demonstration ■ Combinatorial geometry ■ Discrete geometry

Sectors: Engineering, research & development (computer centers, engineering departments, production management services) ■ Services to businesses in mathematics and computer science ■ Fundamental research

Key Data: 33 researchers and professors ■ 2 administrative and technical staff ■ 13 PhD students
