David Kohler: The Missing Region Problem
In this talk, we will study the missing region problem and its solution. This will
allow us to discuss various interesting mathematical ideas and concepts along
the way, such as the strong law of small numbers and the Euler characteristic
of a polyhedron … some neat thinking outside the box, and we’ll be back to
Pascal’s triangle in the end.
UBC/UMC is on wednesday, november 18
3:00 to 4:00 in GEOG 214 (GEOG is located just west of MATH)
drinks and snacks will be provided
