2/17/16 – Dan Nichols: Groups!

The UMass undergraduate Math Club will meet this Wednesday, 2/3, 5-6pm in LGRT 1528. This week our own club co-organizer and pizza wrangler Dan Nichols will tell us about… groups!

Dan Nichols will give a quick tour of the area of mathematics known as group theory, focusing on geometric and combinatorial perspectives and on applications outside pure mathematics. The talk will be quite accessible to calculus students, but it should also be relevant even to those who have already taken an abstract algebra class.

We’ll have the pizza. And also the math. So we hope to see you there!
