Student-Run Research Seminar| Speaker: | Robert Gutierrez, UC Davis |
| Location: | 2112 MSB |
| Start time: | Wed, Jun 6 2007, 12:10PM |
Many unsolved problems in mathematics require a math degree to understand. The 3n+1 conjecture is a wonderful exception. The talk will focus on what it is the conjecture, observations, current knowledge, and how it is related to mathemagic. The term "mathemagic" will be explained throughout the talk.
