The course builds on my 2018 class, Art and Geometry, which I co-taught with local artists. The course explored Picasso’s cubism, which depicted reality as fractured from multiple perspectives; it ...

Engineering drawings are key tools that engineers use to communicate, but deciphering them isn't always straightforward. In ...

They then go on to develop a formal, projective, geometric model of how egocentric space is experienced, following an approach that is analogous to the methods used for 3-dimensional mapping of ...

Credit: NIST Randomness is incredibly useful. People often draw straws, throw dice or flip coins to make fair choices. Random numbers can enable auditors to make completely unbiased selections.

The most comprehensive work on projective geometry in this era, however, came in the 19th century from French engineer and mathematician Jean-Victor Poncelet, under rather trying circumstances.

In 1984 Berry revealed a profound and largely unexpected geometric side to quantum mechanics. This geometry, Berry realized, gives quantum particles a kind of memory. Nothing Should Actually Happen ...

Take another look at predictions #1 and #3 above. If we draw on our experience of life in a non-quantum world, we may notice something very strange when the polarizers are "crossed" at 90 degrees.

4 Discussion: exploring projective geometry in the elementary grades We began our larger research project to explore the potential of projective geometry with elementary children by drawing on decades ...
