I’ve started a monthly email newsletter collecting my writing, some of the things I’m reading, and a few other odds and ends. You can subscribe here.
What I wrote
- On the My Favorite Theorem podcast, my cohost Kevin Knudson and I had the pleasure of talking with two mathematicians who both liked fixed-point theorems: Vidit Nanda and Holly Krieger. Dr. Krieger’s episode gave us our first theorem repeat, which was very exiting for me!
- I’ve been involved in a new podcast project. Lathisms has started a podcast of short interviews with Hispanic and Latinx mathematicians. The first one, featuring Carlos Castillo-Chavez, was published on August 31.
- In college, I played with the early music ensemble the same semester I started taking abstract algebra. I wrote about how the math class helped me read the unusual clefs I was faced with in the music ensemble.
- The p-adic numbers are so weird! The numbers 1 and 2 have the same 3-adic absolute value, and 3 is smaller! But these numbers are surprisingly useful, including in the work of Fields Medalist Peter Scholze.
- A reflection on Babbitt by Sinclair Lewis.
- For #womencomposerswednesday, I shared music by HyeKyung Lee, Kassia, Francesca Caccini, Wu Man, and Liliʻuokalani.
