Another "einstein" shape appears. This einstein is better than the last: it doesn't need to use its reflection to tile the plane. https://phys.org/news/2023-06-uk-hobbyist-stuns-math-world.html
TIL: einstein doesn't mean the genius. It means "ein stein," or "one stone" in German, and refers to its tiling capability.

Also, Roger Penrose is still alive. Wow.

291 this is originally how I solved it - I'm almost sure it's the same, because I think I know what we did a little different.
315 was a happy accident.
I'll have to think about 315 & 453 a little more.

if a #livingwage for metro #boston starts at $46K, why are employers allowed to pay anything less? And, why are #realestate and #property costs (extremely conservatively displayed on this chart) completely off the rails, deepening the pain?

Again, it seems like folks are out here doing the #math wrong, but it doesnt matter to them because some people are just that selfish

PS : "En math, une preuve sans mots (ou démonstration visuelle) est une démonstration d'une affirmation mathématique à l'aide d'un diagramme la rendant évidente, sans qu'un texte plus explicite le commentant soit nécessaire. Quand le diagramme n'en illustre qu'un cas particulier, il faut que sa généralisation ne demande au lecteur qu'un effort minimal."

So....#Lagrange #polynomials. They are pretty dang clever and pretty dang amazing. You can get an analytic (if that's the word I want) polynomial fit! That you can take a continuous derivative!

For arbitrary data, I can see why it might not work.

But for a physical object that actually is moving according to a 2nd-order kinematics (piecewise--really 3rd-order overall) but all you have data for the the first two orders, it might be a good way to recover the higher order(s).

Open question for those in #math and/or #ai over the last twenty years: How much did Perelman's work twenty years ago contribute to machine learning capabilities today?

Is it reasonable to suggest that if Perelman hadn't muscled through a gradient flow with metric measure space objects that the usefulness of things like gradient flow on Wasserstein space would not have been as obvious to the machine learning community as early as it was?

Playing with a new system for making attractors. This is just summing two Clifford attractors with different parameters. #mathart #math #art

A familiar math lesson in poem form and an incredible erasure where progressive fractal triangles case new poems by covering words.

(Triangles by Marian Christie, from Penteract Press.)

#poetry #visualpoetry #math

Pythagoras’ theorem is illustrated by three squares, one side of each forming a side of a right triangle. Each square contains a stanza of the poem:

stars glint, fade.
strum your lyre,
let wine flow.

sea and sky play,
sing pure clear notes.
turn from this dark
shore; watch the waves.

from clear sky, stars watch.
waves strum the shore, turn,
glint. play your lyre; let
pure notes flow and fade.
sing this wine dark sea.
A poem within a triangle is partly obscured by smaller inscribed triangles. The remaining visible words create a smaller poem:

On the far side of the moon. craters hold old wounds, scarring the surface language of invasion - silent attestations to a space filled with new patterns of triangles or squares within squares; a closed curve real number infinity meaning choice. long after exile & loss, friends, even of life, your name live: an arrowhead gasket, a num, a lunar crater.
The cover of Triangles: a triangular fractal woven from blue thread.

"Entre deux vérités du domaine réel, le chemin le plus facile et le plus court passe bien souvent par le domaine complexe." – Paul Painlevé (1863–1933). Ces propos sont aussi repris par Jacques Hadamard, et lui sont donc souvent attribués à tort.

The term #Algorithm is Al-Khwarizmi translated into #Latin

The #scientist & #mathematician Muhammad ibn Musa Al-Khwarizmi lived from 780 to 850 AD in Persia & #Iraq.

Also known as the father of #algebra,
Al-Khwarizmi's #book, "Compendious Book on Calculation by Completion and Balancing” introduced systematic methods for solving linear & quadratic equations.

Using letters as symbols to represent unknown quantities, lay the foundation for symbolic algebra.

Dans cette ingénieuse technique japonaise de pliage d'une chemise en 2 secondes, il se trouve qu'il y a une part de TOPOLOGIE* secrète cachée dans le tissu (décidément, il y a des maths partout !).

Rappel : la Topologie est « l'étude des propriétés invariantes dans la déformation géométrique des objets et dans les transformations continues appliquées à des êtres mathématiques. »

C'est un vrai devoir donné dans une école, paraît-il : il est demandé de rendre ces quatre égalités correctes en insérant des parenthèses entre caractères.

4 + 8 x 5 - 3 x 5 = 45

3 x 10 - 2 ÷ 4 + 4 =10

16 - 3 x 4 + 7 - 1² = 40

5 x 8 + 8 ÷ 6 - 12 x 2 = 24

📖 I'm delighted to announce the publication of my book 'Introduction to Choreographies' with Cambridge University Press!

Concurrency, distribution, and decentralised coordination plans.

I want to send a HUGE thank you to the people who read drafts and gave suggestions. Especially from the communities of choreographic programming, #microservices , and multiparty session types. I'm so grateful!

Here, a pair of overlapping discs forms a 6-fold rotational compound symmetry. Each 'move' shows a generator of the group.

This can be thought of as a simple two-dimensional Rubik's cube.

Un des aspects réellement fascinants des mathématiques arabes: les pavages.
Mathématiquement, un pavage est un recouvrement complet du plan sans trou ni superposition. Le motif de base s'appelle une "tuile", et on dit qu'un pavage est périodique s'il se répète au moins par une translation.
On peut démontrer qu'il existe précisément 17 pavages périodiques. Cela porte le nom du théorème d'Alhambra car ce palais abrite ces 17 possibilités via ses magnifiques mosaïques.

It's done! And I don't want to know about mistakes now because it's been sent to the printer. LaTeX font catalogue was a nice discovery, I'm in love with the "Beuron" font I used for the title. And thanks to @nrennie for the blog posts on making fancy LaTeX outputs with Quarto, meant the whole thing could be done with Quarto and R. #mathart #math #art #rtistry

An image of a mathematical print framed in dark wood.  The print is in the form of a mathemetical poster entitled 'searching for symmetry in strange attractors'.  The text describes how strange attractors are made, with lots of small images.  A large red round image that looks a bit like an eye is overlaid.

In other words, it's like those students who used to sit in the back of the class and clouned about, spouting bs when called on to say something important.

When it comes to advanced math, #ChatGPT is no star student

#AI's ability to handle #math depends on what exactly you ask it to do.

Looking for interesting ways to present images of strange attractors. Here I've arranged them like an old botanical print which I think looks cool. Its nice as they are kind of discovered specimens rather than creations as such, so showing them off in this way feels appropriate. If a bit pretentious! #mathart #rtistry #math #art.

Two strange attractors, round mathematical images, in red and purple on white presented side by side in a format resembling an old botanical print.  A caption "Strange attractor reflections" is below them in a copperplate font, with a small caps roman style font giving the subtitle (Variations on the Symmetric Icon), date (2023) and author name (George Savva) along the bottom.

Want to understand how AI might change teaching & learning? Ask a math instructor.

No, this isn't about making an analogy between AI in the classroom and calculators. It is about Wolfram|Alpha.

If you are not involved in a discipline that relies on mathematical computations, you may not be familiar with Wolfram|Alpha (W|A

Une classe de #math, comme il y en a plein en France, dans nos collèges et lycées. Ou pas. Voici une belle idée de conception de classe de mathématiques!

(Malheureusement, nos écoles sont encore comme des prisons pour de nombreux élèves. Alors que des salles de classe bien conçues et attrayantes pourraient éveiller la curiosité des jeunes !)
