Time: 12:30pm-2:00pm 601 Elm Ave, Norman, OK 73019. Speaker: Siddharth Ramakrishnan Cherukara Title: Exploring the world of primes! Abstract: We will dive into one of the most fascinating areas of mathematics: prime numbers. Primes are the building blocks of all numbers — every whole number greater than 1 is either a prime or can be broken down into a product of primes. Think of them as the “atoms” of arithmetic! We'll discover what prime numbers are and why they are special, explore patterns and puzzles involving primes, and even see how primes show up in nature. Prime numbers worksheet.

Time: 12:30pm-2:00pm 601 Elm Ave, Norman, OK 73019. Speaker: Allen Wu Title: Distance, Shape, the Cosmos, and all that Abstract: Before the dawn of modern technology, how did people in the ancient time figure out the shape of the earth? Why is it a sphere, rather than a flat disc? How did they find the size of the earth, and the distance to the moon, the sun and other planets? Even with the help of modern technology, how can we find the distance to distant stars and galaxies? In this talk, we will see how careful observations and deductive geometric reasoning can take us a long way answering many of these questions. |
