Student Presentations:
Sara Reynolds - "Conformal Mappings in the Analysis
of Leaf Structure "
Abstract
Following the work of Nechaev
and Voituriez, we construct a conformal mapping from a regular
Euclidean hexagon to a heptagon in the Poincar\'{e} unit disk. We
also discuss attempts to analyze leaf growth by isometrically
embedding the heptagon in Euclidean 3-space.
Pam Welch- "Graph Theory and the
Konigsberg Bridge Problem "
Abstract
In this talk, the famous
problem of the Konigsberg Bridges will be discussed along with how
the first developments of Graph Theory resulted from it.
