Abstract for 04 April 2019
In 2004, a research paper about a Welsh corgi captivateda nation. This pup, it seemed, could solve an optimizationpuzzle. We’ll tour the problem, the variations thereof, theensuing media sensation, the dog psychology debate, andthe math that emerges (including a subtle bifurcation andsome nifty algebraic moves). Cute dog pictures (and shoddydog drawings) amply featured.
Prerequisite: working knowledge of single-variable calculus,although a su�cient love of canines may substitute.
