  1. Kann die Natur Mathe?

    (verspätete aber nicht weniger) Herzliche Glückwünsche zum DMV Medienpreis an @hyperjinx und das Team der WDR Wissenschaftsredaktion für dieses großartige Video über die berühmten Annanaszahlen, Spiralen, den goldenen Schnitt und vieles mehr.

    Unbedingte Kuckempfehlung!

  2. Want to play with folded galleries in Coxeter groups?
    Here's a cool tool to have a look at shadows in Coxeter groups. Programming this tool was part of a Bachelor's thesis I've recently supervised. I could not be happier with the final result!

  4. Holy frijoles! I'm a math lover, and I find mathematical puzzles enchanting. So whenever a math conundrum, if you will, pops up, I take notice. This problem of a goat's grazing area within a circular fence intrigues me OH SO MUCH. To see the solution in such a complex, yet mathematically beautiful style simply blows my mind. #MathIsBeautiful!
