Three teams finished tied for the last two places in the play-offs on 145 each; Durham and Jesus College Oxford went through due to having heard fewer questions to reach their scores.
The trophy and title were awarded to the Imperial team comprising Richard Brooks, Brandon Blackwell (known simply as Brandon), Caleb Rich and Conor McMeel.
The trophy was presented by Andrew Wiles, on location at the Oxford University Mathematics Institute.
