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. |
