The Six Series: “The Perfect Nature of the Number Six” with Fields Medalist Manjul Bhargava
Wednesday, February 13, 6:00 pm

The number six has an illustrious history.  The ancient Greeks considered the number to be perfect because of its remarkable number-theoretic properties.  The number six also plays an extremely important role in nature; for example, bees have long considered six to be the perfect number of sides for each cell of their honeycombs — and for good reason!  In this lecture, we describe some of the remarkable properties of the number six, in both human and natural history, including some nontrivial magic tricks that make use of these characteristics of six — all in celebration of MoMath’s sixth birthday!  Register and learn more at six.momath.org.

Family Fridays at MoMath presented by Two Sigma: “Patchwork Patterns” with Elaine Krajenke Ellison
Friday, February 15, 6:30 pm

The Math of Particle Physics with CERN researcher James Beacham
Thursday, February 28, 6:30 pm

As a scientist at CERN’s Large Hadron Collider (LHC) and a member of the ATLAS collaboration (one of the teams that discovered the Higgs boson in 2012), James searches for evidence of new particles — dark matter, gravitons, dark photons, and exotic Higgs bosons among them — that could provide answers to the fundamental open questions of physics.  Learn more and register at particle.momath.org.

Math & Magic with Manjul, a daylong workshop
Saturday, March 2, 10:00 am

Back by popular demand, this daylong workshop will explore some of the striking relations between mathematics and magic and will cover a number of highlights from the minicourse given last fall.  Some of the very best magic tricks invented over the years have involved serious mathematics, including concepts from number theory, group theory, recursion theory, topology, coding theory, and cryptography.  Conversely, and somewhat more surprisingly, a great deal of nontrivial and important mathematics has been discovered in these areas in recent years due to corresponding developments in magic.  In fact, these mathematical ideas have also had important applications in areas beyond magic.  Join Fields Medalist and Princeton
University Professor Manjul Bhargava, along with magician Mark Mitton, in an engaging exploration of magic tricks and the beautiful mathematical ideas that drive them.  Learn more and register at marchmagic.momath.org.

Math Encounters: “Space, Time, and the Fourth Dimension” with Robbert Dijkgraaf, Director of the Institute for Advanced Study
Wednesday, March 6, 4:00 pm and 7:00 pm

Albert Einstein discovered that time should be seen as a fourth dimension that can be added to the three dimensions of space.  What exactly does this mean?  Can one imagine higher dimensions?  How does geometry work in four-dimensional spacetime?  And how does this help us understand fundamental questions in physics like the Big Bang, black holes, and the behavior of elementary particles according to the rules of quantum mechanics?  Learn more and register at mathencounters.org.

Tween Primes, the MoMath book club for tweens and teens: Chasing Vermeer by Blue Balliett
Sunday, March 10, 5:30 pm

When a book of inexplicable occurrences brings Petra Andalee and Calder Pillay together, strange things start to happen: seemingly unrelated events connect, an eccentric old woman seeks their company, and an invaluable Vermeer painting disappears.  Before they know it, the two find themselves at the center of an international art scandal, where no one — neighbors, parents, teachers — is spared from suspicion.  As Petra and Calder are drawn clue by clue into a mysterious labyrinth, they must draw on their powers of intuition, their problem-solving skills, and their knowledge of Vermeer.  Can they decipher a crime that has left even the FBI baffled?  Learn more and register at tweenprimes.momath.org.

Math Encounters: “Parties, Doughnuts, and Coloring: From Königsberg to Cutting Edge Research” with Maria Chudnovsky
Wednesday, April 3, 4:00 pm and 7:00 pm

Leonhard Euler’s late 1700’s paper on the Seven Bridges of Königsberg launched a new field in mathematics, graph theory, that focuses on representing information about connections between pairs of objects.  Graphs are widely used today as a modeling tool in engineering, social sciences, and many other fields.  Join Princeton University Professor Maria Chudnovsky on a journey that begins with some simple problems in graph theory and leads to an exploration of some of the most active fields in modern mathematical research.  Learn more and register at mathencounters.org.

The Six Serie: “Six Linguistic Sixes” with Princeton Professor Joshua Katz
Wednesday, April 10, 6:00 pm

In this interactive presentation suitable for all lovers of language, math, and puzzles, Joshua Katz will share six facts (at least) about English and other languages that have in one way or another to do with the number six.  For example, do you know what the connection is between six and the first word in any dictionary of English, the seemingly mundane but in fact fascinating indefinite article “a”?  Or why the letter “alpha” could be used for 1 in Ancient Greek, “beta” for 2, and “gamma” for 3, but the sixth letter, “zeta,” stood for 7?  Come learn and explore with one of Princeton’s “rockstar professors,” all in celebration of MoMath’s sixth
birthday.  Katz is the Cotsen Professor in the Humanities, Professor of Classics, and a member (and former Director) of the Program in Linguistics at Princeton University, where he has taught since 1998 and has received numerous awards for his scholarship and teaching.  Learn more and register at six.momath.org.
