Course Description
Overview
Explore the fascinating world of three-dimensional mazes and hyperbolic geometry in this 58-minute lecture by Professor Caroline Series at The Royal Institution. Discover how mathematicians map and describe complex 3D structures, and learn about the crucial role of hyperbolic geometry in answering these questions. Delve into Professor Series' research on dynamical systems and geometric patterns in three-dimensional hyperbolic spaces, illustrated with striking examples of digital art. Gain insights into the work of this award-winning mathematician, recognized with the Senior Anne Bennett Prize from the London Mathematical Society, and learn about her contributions to supporting female mathematicians across Europe as a founding member of European Women in Mathematics (EWM).
