== History ==<br />
Mathematics in Kerala, during the times of [[Madhava of Sangamagrama]], majorly flourished in the [[Muziris]] region of [[Thrikkandiyoor|Thrikkandiyur]], Thirur, [[Alattiyur, Malappuram|Alattiyur]], and [[Tirunavaya]] in the Malabar region of [[Kerala]]. [[Kerala school of astronomy and mathematics]] flourished between the 14th and 16th centuries. Commemorating the rich heritage of Mathematics in the region, Kerala School of Mathematics was hence chosen to be set up in the scenic mountains of the [[Western Ghats]] in the city of Kozhikode. <br />
<br />
The nascent plan to set up Kerala School of Mathematics started forming shape in around 2004. The then DAE chairman [[Anil Kakodkar]] and the then executive vice president of KSCSTE, [[M. S. Valiathan]] were instrumental in setting up the institute with the guidance of [[M. S. Raghunathan]], [[Rajeeva Laxman Karandikar|Rajeeva Karandikar]] and Alladi Sitaram. The foundation stone of KSoM was laid by the then Chief Minister [[A. K. Antony|A.K. Antony]] in 2004. The institute was later inaugurated in 2008 by the then Chief Minister [[V. S. Achuthanandan]]<ref>{{Cite news|date=2009-06-14|title=Kerala School of Mathematics to start academic activities|language=en-IN|work=The Hindu|url=https://www.thehindu.com/todays-paper/tp-national/tp-kerala/Kerala-School-of-Mathematics-to-start-academic-activities/article16577233.ece|access-date=2020-11-08|issn=0971-751X}}</ref><ref>{{Cite news|date=2008-06-04|title=VS opens Kerala School of Mathematics|language=en-IN|work=The Hindu|url=https://www.thehindu.com/todays-paper/tp-national/tp-kerala/VS-opens-Kerala-School-of-Mathematics/article15235041.ece|access-date=2020-11-08|issn=0971-751X}}</ref> and finally set up in 2009 with Parameswaran A.
