Cambridge Perspectives: Spencer Becker-Kahn and minimal surfaces
Spencer Becker-Kahn is looking for for some of the most elusive objects in mathematics: minimal surfaces. In this video he explains what they are and why he likes them.
Over the last 250 years mathematical objects called minimal surfaces have been playing hide and seek with geometers. Spencer Becker-Kahn is one mathematician who has joined the quest to find them
The CMS has become a flagship example of how environmentally sustainable thinking can become an integral part of running large existing sites, and improve our lives every day.
The Faculty is deeply saddened by the death of Stephen Siklos on 17th August, 2019. He was a former lecturer at DAMTP, Faculty Admissions Officer for many years, and known to thousands of students as the face of STEP.
Three members of the Faculty — Professors Caucher Birkar, Peter Haynes, and Richard Jozsa — have been elected Fellows of the Royal Society for their substantial contributions to mathematics.
