MIT’s Erik Demaine improves on his landmark, 18-year-old algorithm for generating origami folding patterns for any 3-D shape. The new work adds the requirement of “watertightness,” or minimizing the number of seams in an origami approximation of a closed surface.
In a recent post , Adam Langley complains that “SHA-3 is slow”. Similar comments appear from time to time on the web (see also David Wong's post ). But what does it mean precisely? Let us dig into it.
Hooray, it’s yet another social network for you to join! I’m skeptical about new social media, but I’ve been seeing enough posts about mathstodon.xyz that I finally caved and got an account. Mathstodon is the math(s) “instance” of mastodon , a new open-source, decentralized microblogging social network. It’s a lot…
Topics in Core Mathematics sounds like the blandest possible math class. The course title is meant to convey the one important aspect of the class for many students: this class fulfills the core math requirement for the College of Liberal Arts and Sciences. Box checked. However, the advantage of blandness is that it…
