Let’s count points!

November 13, 2019 @ 4:15 pm - 5:15 pm

A fascinating fact on mathematics is that there are many interesting connections between seemingly different mathematical disciplines. In this talk, I will present a surprising formula counting integral points on polygons and sketch its proof. We will see a delightful interaction between algebra, combinatorics, and geometry. This talk aims primarily for undergraduate students. No prerequisite is assumed beyond calculus.
