Geometric shapes

Fusiform

Fusiform means having a spindle-like shape that is wide in the middle and tapers at both ends. It is similar to the lemon-shape, but often implies a focal broadening of a structure that continues from one or both ends, such as an aneurysm on a blood vessel. (Wikipedia).

What is the Derivative?

Derivatives are the main object of study in differential calculus. They describe rates of change of functions. That makes them incredibly useful in all of science, as many models can be expressed by describing the changes over time (e.g. of physical quantities). However, the abstract defin

Modular forms: Eisenstein series

This lecture is part of an online graduate course on modular forms. We give two ways of looking at modular forms: as functions of lattices in C, or as invariant forms. We use this to give two different ways of constructing Eisenstein series. For the other lectures in the course see http

Why Do We See Faces in Objects?

The part of the brain that recognizes faces, fusiform gyrus, can spot a face in under 130 milliseconds, but sometimes objects can trigger it as well. This strange phenomena, called pareidolia, has evolved over the past few million years. Subscribe to Science Channel: http://bit.ly/Subscri
