Mysteries of the Mathematical Universe
Δημοσιεύτηκε στις 19 Φεβ 2015
Mathematical
mysteries have challenged humanity’s most powerful thinkers and
inspired passionate, lifelong obsessions in search of answers. From the
strangeness of prime numbers and the nature of infinity, to the
turbulent flow of fluids and the geometry of hyperspace, mathematics is
our most potent tool for revealing immutable truths. The event was a
vibrant tour to the boundaries of the mathematical universe, and explore
the deep puzzles that have been solved, the masterminds who powered the
breakthroughs, and the towering challenges that have shaken the
confidence of some of today’s most accomplished mathematicians—even as
they enlist new ways to pursue mathematical truths.
