This volume contains the proceedings of the summer school and research conference ""Frontiers in Geometry and Topology"", celebrating the sixtieth birthday of Tomasz Mrowka, which was held from August 1-12, 2022, at the Abdus Salam International Centre for Theoretical Physics (ICTP). The summer school featured ten lecturers and the research ......
Together with its clear mathematical exposition, the problems in this book take the reader from an introduction to discrete geometry all the way to its frontiers. Investigations start with easily drawn figures, such as dividing a polygon into triangles or finding the minimum number of ""guards"" for a polygon (""art gallery"" problem). These early ......
This book offers an alternative proof of the Bestvina-Feighn combination theorem for trees of hyperbolic spaces and describes uniform quasigeodesics in such spaces. As one of the applications of their description of uniform quasigeodesics, the authors prove the existence of Cannon-Thurston maps for inclusion maps of total spaces of subtrees of ......
People and Problems from 31 Years of Math Horizons
Welcome to The Mathematical Playground, a book celebrating more than thirty years of the problems column in the MAA undergraduate magazine, Math Horizons. Anecdotes, interviews, and historical sketches accompany the puzzles, conveying the vibrancy of the ""Playground"" community. The lively prose and humor used throughout the book reveal the ......
