Albion College Mathematics and Computer Science Colloquium



Title: Symmetries on Spheres
Speaker:David A. Reimann
Professor
Mathematics and Computer Science
Albion College
Albion, Michigan
Abstract: Symmetry is an important for many academic disciplines. Objects that are symmetric are often seen as possessing an aesthetic quality. In this talk, we will consider the types of symmetry patterns that can be placed on a sphere and mathematically demonstrate the number of these patterns. We will also look at how these symmetries can be mapped onto general three-dimensional objects.
