Explores the nature of non-Euclidan geometry, beginning by looking at the toy known as the Euclidean kaleidoscope and moving on to explaining the properties of non-Euclidean geometry. Then explains the...
How can the use of perspective to draw diagrams in apparently different ways help mathematicians to prove important results in plane geometry?
Two programmes for use with course units GE5 and GE6: 1) The Platonic Solids (25 min): Classifies the direct symmetry groups of five regular solids. Introduces them and shows how they are built up from their...
A videoconference held 25 March 1993 considering chaotic synamical systems and fractal geometry, which are revolutionary new mathematical concepts with a wide impact in all areas of science and entineering....
Recording of a lecture given by Professor S A Robertson as part of the London Mathematical Society’s Popular Lecture Series. Our experience of the physical world through sight, touch and hearing is the raw...
Two programmes for use with course units GE1 and GE2: 1) Counting with Groups (27 min): Explores the ideas of orbit and stabiliser in group theory, and how the orbit-stabiliser can be adapted to help solve...
In four modules: introduction, basic algebra, geometry and mathematical functions.
Recording of a lecture given by Dr A F Reardon as part of in the London Mathematical Society’s Popular Lecture Series. Wallpaper patterns arise by translating, rotating, or reflecting a given motif to...
Video of a lecture given by Dr P Giblin as part of the London Mathematical Society’s Popular Lecture series. Modern geometry interacts with computers in several ways. Computers can draw pictures for...
Recording of a lecture given by Professor E C Zeeman as part of the London Mathematical Society’s Popular Lecture Series. It explains the vanishing points and observation points of perspective and proves...
