Get a look at just what these mysterious objects are and how they can be used to create private connections.Ī Cone Decomposition for Computing the Normalized Solid Angle Measure of Polyhedral Cones Powerful but least understood types of cryptography in wide use today.” As such, consider joining us to Web infrastructure and website security corporations, “Elliptic Curve Cryptography is one of the most To quote the head of cryptography at Cloudflare, one of the largest In it, he will give examples of elliptic curves and show This Thursday, on September 23rd, from 5-6pm we will be hosting Joseph Cummings! Come to Patterson Office Tower room 745 to hear Let’s rekindle this community by reconnecting with the wonderful people in it. This is the chance to make up for lost time! Special emphasis on the sophomores and juniors who missed many opportunities last year to formīonds with like-minded peers due to online classes. Moreover, the Math Club is always a great place to get advice on your degree and futureĬourses, especially from upper classmen who’ve taken higher courses. In math! This is a great opportunity for freshmen to ground themselves in the university’s mathĬommunity.
Come along and catch up with old faces, meet professors of courses you mayīe interested in taking, and, probably most importantly, make new friends with a shared interest We are meeting in-person, outdoors this time, at the amphitheater outside Memorial Hall for It’s taken a long time, but the Math Club is finally meeting again! This Thursday at 5pm EDT I'll describe the history of the problem, starting withĪncient Greece and the 2-dimensional case, and fully describe the solution and possible generalizations. Later (spoiler: the answer is "not always"!). Question, which you could think of as a 3-dimensional game of tangrams, was achieved by Dehn only a year Given two 3-dimensional polyhedra of equal volume, is it possible to decompose the first one into aįinite number of polyhedral chunks, and then reassemble them into the second one. In a 1900 address to the International Congress of Mathematicians, Hilbert posed the following problem: ForĮxample, the torus has a mirror symmetry given by cutting the bagel in half. Then we’ll look at some examples of surfaces and explore their symmetries. To classify all examples of surfaces? We’ll explore this question and discuss how one can use “cut-and-paste” Are there other examples of surfaces? If so, can we try If a tiny ant lived on a torus, it locally wouldn’t be able to tell theĭifference between its world and a flat plane. Another familiar example is the outside of a doughnut or bagel, which is known For example, we live on Earth and while we know it’s a sphere, That point, it appears to be a flat plane. Upcoming and Recent Events:Ī surface is an object with the property that for each point on the object, if we zoom in enough around The UK Math Club thanks the JC Eaves Undergraduate Excellence Fund for its continued patronage to activities. Undergraduates are welcomed to drop by and especially encouraged to attend when Math Club hosts (see events for dates, usually once a month on a Friday). Thomas graduate student council (GSC) hosts department tea in POT 745 most Tuesdays and Fridays, from 2:30 to 3:30. Questions, comments, and ideas for future activities and events should be directed towards the Math Club Leadership Team: The Math Club holds several meetings a semester which may feature a talk on an interesting piece of mathematics, information about opportunities for students such as summer programs or careers, or math-oriented social activities.Įvents and useful links are listed below. The Math Club is open to all undergraduate students with an interest in mathematics. Welcome to the University of Kentucky Department of Mathematics's Undergraduate Student Organization.
