UBC Mathematics postdoctoral fellow Dr. Adam Martens talks about the geometry of gift wrapping—and why you can’t wrap a ball perfectly (so don’t even bother).
Archimedes Talks is a speaker series aimed at talented high school students in Vancouver who are interested in mathematics and applied sciences. Join us on February 8th for two talks. Lunch provided.
Featuring talks by Mitchell Luskin (University of Minnesota) and Ziyan (Zoe) Zhu (Boston College), the joint applied mathematics and quantum matter double seminar on modelling of 2D moiré materials will take place on Wednesday, January 7th, from 3:30 to 6 pm.
