Recreational Mathematics Seminar - Building Real Mathematical Surfaces
Speaker: Maria Garcia Monera
Title: Building Real Mathematical Surfaces
At the end of the 19th century Felix Klein (1849-1925) and Alexander Von Brill (1842-1935) designed hundreds of surfaces using different materials like paper, wire or plaster. In this talk, we present some paper surfaces we have designed and which are based on their work and the subsequent work of the British teacher John Sharp.
The main idea of this technique consists on finding plane curves contained on surfaces that can be used as a pieces to reproduce a real model of the surface.
The following Wednesday after the talk, there will be a follow up workshop to learn how to build these surfaces.
