Mini-course on plan tiling starts on Tuesday (8)

The mini-course “Tiling the Plane: Computational Representation and Visualization” begins on Tuesday (8), as part of the IMPA Summer Course program. Registration must be done at this link until this Friday (4). Taught by José Ezequiel Soto, PhD from IMPA, the classes will cover topics such as mathematical concepts, classification, computational models and interactive exploration. The syllabus is already available .

“The idea is to share some of the findings from my doctoral research. At the same time, I hope that participants will become interested in using computer graphics tools for visualizing and understanding mathematical concepts,” says Ezequiel.

This mini-course is aimed at young people pursuing undergraduate, bachelor's, or master's degrees in mathematics, computer science, and related fields. The content will be delivered across six classes, held remotely on Tuesdays and Thursdays between 1 PM and 3 PM. To complete the course, students must attend at least five sessions and submit the program's assignments.
