What is the Riemann Hypothesis?
This video provides a basic introduction to the Riemann Hypothesis based on the the superb book 'Prime Obsession' by John Derbyshire. Along the way I look at convergent and divergent series, Euler's famous solution to the Basel problem, and the Riemann-Zeta function. Analytic continuation

A Beautiful Proof of Ptolemy's Theorem.
Ptolemy's Theorem seems more esoteric than the Pythagorean Theorem, but it's just as cool. In fact, the Pythagorean Theorem follows directly from it. Ptolemy used this theorem in his astronomical work. Google for the historical details. Thanks to this video for the idea of this visual

A (compelling?) reason for the Riemann Hypothesis to be true #SOME2
A visual walkthrough of the Riemann Zeta function and a claim of a good reason for the truth of the Riemann Hypothesis. This is not a formal proof but I believe the line of argument could lead to a formal proof.

An Infinite Product Conjecture - Monday Math Nugget #2
Today we're answering a question posed in the comment section of the previous MMN... The conjecture is: since any quotient of finite products of integers cannot be an integer if all factors in the numerator are odd and at least one in the denominator is even, then a quotient of infinite

Ilya Dumanski - Schubert varieties in the Beilinson-Drinfeld Grassmannian
Ilya Dumanski (MIT) The Borel-Weil theorem states that the space of sections of a certain line bundle on the flag variety is isomorphic to the irreducible representation of the corresponding reductive group. The classical result of Demazure describes the restriction of sections to the Sch

Rinat Kedem: From Q-systems to quantum affine algebras and beyond
Abstract: The theory of cluster algebras has proved useful in proving theorems about the characters of graded tensor products or Demazure modules, via the Q-system. Upon quantization, the algebra associated with this system is shown to be related to a quantum affine algebra. Graded charact

Intro to Cauchy Sequences and Cauchy Criterion | Real Analysis
What are Cauchy sequences? We introduce the Cauchy criterion for sequences and discuss its importance. A sequence is Cauchy if and only if it converges. So Cauchy sequences are another way of characterizing convergence without involving the limit. A sequence being Cauchy roughly means that

Timo Richarz: Basics on Affine Grassmanianns
The aim is to give an introduction to the basic theory of affine Grassmannians and affine flag varieties. We put special emphasis on the utility of dynamic methods in sense of Drinfeld [D], and the utility of non-constant group schemes. We plan to adress the following aspects: • Affine Gra

The Riemann Hypothesis, Explained
The Riemann hypothesis is the most notorious unsolved problem in all of mathematics. Ever since it was first proposed by Bernhard Riemann in 1859, the conjecture has maintained the status of the "Holy Grail" of mathematics. In fact, the person who solves it will win a $1 million prize from

Giles Gardam - Kaplansky's conjectures
Kaplansky made various related conjectures about group rings, especially for torsion-free groups. For example, the zero divisors conjecture predicts that if K is a field and G is a torsion-free group, then the group ring K[G] has no zero divisors. I will survey what is known about the conj
