@ Mayo Civic Center, Rochester MN

Thanks for attending and Congratulations to all the winners!

Distinguished Speakers

Speaker: Mr. Ben Orlin
Mr. Ben Orlin loves math and can't draw. He is the author of the books Math with Bad Drawings, Change is the Only Constant, and Math Games with Bad Drawings. He has taught ages from 11 to 18, and has been ages from 0 to 35, not all with equal success. You can find his cartoons on Facebook, Twitter, and in the margins of books he's reading. Website: mathwithbaddrawings.com

Seminar Title: Math Games with Bad Drawings
Description: We all love math. We all love games. We all love rules. We all... wait, did I say rules? We don't love rules, do we? Aren't they boring? Don't they constrain our freedom? Actually, quite the opposite. By playing a few mathematical games together, we'll explore how, in games and math alike, it's rules that bring out the best in human thought.
Speaker: Dr. Daoji Huang
Dr. Daoji Huang is a NSF postdoctoral research fellow at the University of Minnesota. Her research interests primarily lie in algebraic combinatorics, Schubert calculus, and combinatorial algebraic geometry. She obtained her Ph.D. in Mathematics and M.S. in Computer Science from Cornell University. Website: https://www.daojihuang.me/

​Seminar Title: You know that I know that you know that I know
Description: When Timmy said "my dog ate my homework," Timmy didn't know that his teacher knew that Timmy didn't know that she knew that Timmy didn't have a dog. Philosophers and puzzle solvers have long pondered the meanings and consequences of knowledge or lack of knowledge, but did you know that there is a rigorous mathematical system that allows us to formalize and reason about knowledge? This mathematical foundation has enabled wide applications in fields like distributed computing, artificial intelligence, and game theory. In this talk, we will have a very brief introduction of the mathematical approaches for reasoning about knowledge.
