Math Club Presents "Classifying Polytopes in Dimensions 4 and Beyond"
On Thursday, February 20 from 4:00 to 5:00 pm in 351 Avery Hall, graduate student Brittany Johnson will give a talk entitled, "Classifying Polytopes in Dimensions 4 and Beyond." It is well known that there exists infinitely many regular convex polygons, and that there exists exactly five regular convex polyhedra, more commonly known as the Platonic solids. We will seek to prove these facts and to extend our findings to higher dimension polytopes so that we can gain a better understanding of what happens in dimension 4 and beyond.
Pizza and soda will also be served as this event, so please join us!
