Together with Prof. M, Kimura, Prof. H. Ohtsuka and others, a regular student exchange has been established on the level of Bc, MSc and PhD. Production of new research results continues. The exchanges take part each year in high number of students from KU visiting CTU Prague.

One of conferences of the common series the Czech Japanese Seminar in Applied Mathematics took place I Noto and Kanazawa in 2018. Another such conference has been organized online in January 2021 with 72 participants from Czech Republic, Japan, EU and USA.
