MATH 0010A. First Year Seminar: A Taste of the Infinite.

The concept of infinity occurs in many disciplines - philosophy, mathematics, physics, religion, art, and so on. This class will focus on the mathematical aspects of infinity, surveying some of the ways that the infinite arises in mathematics. Topics will include: the sizes of infinity, rates of growth, computational complexity, construction of the real numbers, the notion of compactness, geometric spaces, transcendental numbers, and fractal sets. I will not assume any prior knowledge of mathematics beyond a good grounding in high school algebra and geometry.

MATH 0010B. Exploring the Fourth Dimension.

This interdisciplinary seminar explores all the mathematics students have seen or ever will see, concentrating on an engaging topic that begins with elementary geometry and branches out to literature, history, philosophy, and art as well as physics and other sciences. Guideposts to the fourth dimension include Salvador Dali's Corpus Hypercubicus, Edwin Abbott Abbott's Flatland, and Jeff Weeks' The Shape of Space. Students will investigate new mathematical topics such as combinatorics, regular polytopes, topology, and non-Euclidean geometry. Although students will use computers for visualization, no computer experience is required. There are no specific mathematical prerequisites except curiosity and a willingness to participate actively. Students considering concentrations in humanities, social sciences, and the arts are especially invited to this first-year seminar. Enrollment limited to 19 first year students.

MATH 0580. Mathematical Forms in Architecture.

This project will explore and advance innovative applications of mathematics to architecture using computational methods. Historically, architecture has been guided primarily by an intuitive creative process. In contrast to the end-results of intuitive design, many "optimal" forms--i.e. geometric shapes and configurations that satisfy extremal conditions--are unique because they are the result of systematic physical experiments or explicit mathematical study in addition to imaginative imput. Classic questions for which human intuition alone has been incapable of finding a solution include: What is the exact shape of the optimal arch?, or What is the shape of a child's slide that minimizes the time of travel? The use of computational methods to generate solutions to these problems will be made considerably simpler via optimization libraries in Mathematica. The application to architecture in this project will provide students a unique concrete backdrop to visualize solutions to these problems.
