This might be interesting!
This week in the City Tech Math Club:
Title: “Statistical Mechanics and Combinatorics”
Speaker: Dr. Ezra Halleck (NYCCT)
Date/Room: Thursday April 19, 2018, 12:50-2:00pm, Namm 720
Abstract: In this picture-rich and proof-light treatment, I will begin with the connections between the 2 subjects but focus on enumerative and bijective aspects. One example is tiling using dimers. Another is a model of ice, again in a plane. There will be several hands-on activities as well as recursive programming examples in MATLAB, Python and R.
Pizza and refreshments will be served at 12:45pm. Feel free to stop by anytime and let interested students know about this event. We are still in need of volunteers to give talks in May.
