Math Club: Nuclear proofs, by Ben Oltsik (UConn)
Wednesday, November 20, 2024 5:30–6:30 PM
- DescriptionHave you ever seen a mosquito and wanted to shoo it away? Certainly, if you used a nuclear bomb, this would solve the issue, despite there being many simpler ways to approach the problem. We will discuss mathematical equivalents of this: ways to prove elementary facts using overly complicated methods. Note: Free refreshments. The talk starts at 5:40.
