The reduction compass or proportional dividers is a geometry tool with asymmetric-length branches to allow performing homothetic transformations, reproducing a pattern while enlarging or reducing its size and conserving angles. It was invented by Fabrizio Mordente before 1567. (Wikipedia).

There are two different types of reductionism. One is called methodological reductionism, the other one theory reductionism. Methodological reductionism is about the properties of the real world. It’s about taking things apart into smaller things and finding that the smaller things determ

How to use the LCD to help us solve a rational equation
👉 Learn how to solve proportions. Two ratios are said to be proportional when the two ratios are equal. Thus, proportion problems are problems involving the equality of two ratios. When given a proportion problem with an unknown, we usually cross-multiply the two ratios and then solve for

María Cumplido Cabello: Complexes of parabolic subgroups for Artin groups
Abstract : One of the main examples of Artin groups are braid groups. We can use powerful topological methods on braid groups that come from the action of braid on the curve complex of the n-puctured disk. However, these methods cannot be applied in general to Artin groups. In this talk we
