Have a look at our article "on the importance of Illustration for Mathematical Research." We argue that #illustratingMath not only has a positive aspect for communication of #Math results, but also for the #Research process itself. If you want to collaborate on this, hit me up!
In "On the Importance of Illustration for Mathematical Research," alumni from ICERM's Fall 2019 Illustrating Mathematics program emphasize the historical importance and growing potential of mathematical visualization for @amermathsoc 'Notices'! ams.org/journals/notices/202…

(3/3) I suggest that for their next stunt, OpenAI should throw a $1,000,000 in tokens into the prompt “Search for a contradiction in math”; if nothing else, this would be a good way to debug Lean or increase our confidence that it is bug-free.

Tomorrow, Friday, October 9th, we will have our next #illustratingMath seminar online at 9am Pacific / 12pm Eastern / 6pm Central Europe. Things will be slightly different than usual: Instead of Show&Ask and a talk, we will have a panel on "The Role of Illustration." Tune in!

It took more than 3,000 emails, close to 80 hours of work, and turned further hairs white, but it is great to finally hold the printed proceedings from this year's @BridgesMathart conference in hand! Kudos to Eve Torrence (managing editor), the other editors, and the authors!

The first plenary talk at the @BridgesMathart conference today is by children’s book author Amy Alznauer. (archive.bridgesmathart.org/2…) She wrote a book on Ramanujan and has a new one on Marjorie Rice, which looks great! You can find it here: penguinrandomhouse.com/books… (1/2)
