Roger Antonsen

Join us for a visual and colorful talk on how mathematical structures can be visualized, explored, and better understood through programming and algorithms. It will cover randomness, games, combinatorics, number theory, graph theory, and algebra, but in a way that is comprehensible and down-to-earth. We will look at how the abstract can be explored, visualized, and made more concrete. Welcome to a lecture on mathematical and algorithmic art!
