Hugo Parlier, chercheur en mathématiques à l’université du Luxembourg, animera le colloquium du Loria le mardi 24 mars à 13h30 dans l’amphithéâtre. L’exposé sera en anglais.

Title: “Playing puzzles on complicated surfaces”

Abstract: This talk will be about a project aiming to illustrate geometry through puzzles. The puzzles are played on surfaces, and have natural configuration graphs with a geometry of their own. These graphs are not completely unlike other combinatorial graphs used in the study of moduli spaces of surfaces (such as flip graphs) which can be visualized in similar ways. Certain parts of talk will be based on an ongoing project with Mario Gutierrez and Paul Turner, and on another with Mark Bell and Lionel Pournin.

Les personnes extérieures au laboratoire doivent s’inscrire auprès de annabelle.arena[@]loria.fr avant le lundi 23 mars.
