Some Clever Proofs using Advanced Mathematics
Mr. Giovanni DiMatteo
Pure Mathematics Senior
Department of Mathematics and Computer Science
Albion College
We'll examine three smart applications of topics from undergraduate math, includingCauchy sequences, topological spaces, and finite fields.I created one of these problems, read another in a book, and saw the third at the Budapest Semester in Mathematics (BSM). All of them yield(comparatively) neat solutions to the problemschosen; this serves partly as advertising for the problem solving seminar I will be running again in thespring and also as an opportunity to talk a little about my experience at the BSM program.
