FollowCall for long programs, workshops, and summer schools at IPAM
(I am writing here in my capacity as Director of Special Projects at IPAM.) IPAM seeks program proposals from the mathematical, statistical, and scientific communities for long programs…
Visualizing the Gilbreath expectation sequence
One byproduct of learning how to use coding agents to create visualization apps is that it now becomes straightforward to convert any figure in one’s papers that had already been generated…
A paper diagram visualizer
I am finding the newly revealed capability to code old applet ideas into reality to be very tempting to sink more time into, though I am certainly encountering the common “vibe coding”…
A random variable visualizer
With the advent of modern coding agents, many visualization projects that I had proposed in the past, but dropped due to the time and complexity of the coding portion of the task, have now become…
Old and new apps, via modern coding agents
I have been interested in machine-assisted ways to do and teach mathematics from as far back as 1999, when I started coding several applets in Java 1.0, both for my complex analysis and linear…
Gilbreath’s conjecture: a Cramér random model and a deterministic analysis
Zachary Chase, Zach Hunter and I have uploaded to the arXiv our preprint Gilbreath’s conjecture: a Cramér random model and a deterministic analysis.
A digestion of unit distance constructions
Suppose that one has a set $latex {P}&fg=000000$ of $latex {n}&fg=000000$ points in the plane, which we will think of as the complex plane $latex {{\bf C}}&fg=000000$.
Third SAIR competition: inverse Galois challenge
I am happy to announce the third SAIR challenge, which is focused on obtaining numerical data for the infamous inverse Galois problem.
