Welcome to Pint of View – Bangalore's first-ever community where lectures meet drinks in a relaxed pub-style setting.
For our next lecture, we are thrilled to host Dr. Purvi Gupta, assistant professor and a mathematician at the Indian Institute of Science, for an evening where mathematics becomes playful, surprising and wonderfully intuitive. [BEGINNER-FRIENDLY WITH SOME ADVANCED CONCEPTS IN A FEW SLIDES]
Why is it that a drunk man will eventually stumble back to the pub, but a drunk bird may be lost forever in the sky? The answer lies in the strange logic of random walks and the hidden structure of dimensions.
This talk will take you through that puzzle, then continue into a simple proof that some infinities are larger than others. You will also meet Euler’s elegant law, a single formula that governs the shape of every three-dimensional solid, from dice cubes to soccer balls.
Expect an hour full of delightful “aha” moments that reveal mathematics not as a school subject but as a way of seeing the world.
All of this over a complimentary Geist beer and F&B at the 250-seater Fandom at Gilly's Redefined in Koramangala.
