Members,
Don't forget that we have a talk today on Sierpinski's Gasket given by Ian Stewart. The gasket is remarkable because it, or a discrete relative, appears in many apparently unrelated areas of mathematics - Pascal's triangle, the Tower of Hanoi puzzle, and Iterated Function Schemes. Benoit Mandelbrot has compared it to the Eiffel Tower. The lecture is a celebration of the ubiquity of Sierpinski's gasket and its curious numerology.
Afterwards we'll be moving to the Common Room for an end of term social. Expect food, drink, music and banter aplenty.
It all gets started at 5pm, today, in MS.02.
Hope to see you there!
