Geometry — MAT2106.01

Spring 2020
Instructor: Andrew McIntyre
Credits: 4
In the nineteenth and twentieth (and twenty-first!) centuries, mathematicians have been stretching the idea of "geometry" far beyond the geometry of Euclid most people are familiar with: into the fourth (or higher) dimension, curved spaces, and more. This new geometry (the part I am referring to is called "differential geometry and topology") is philosophically and

Geometry and Physics — MAT2245.01

Spring 2017
Instructor: Andrew McIntyre
Credits: 4
This is an introductory course on modern geometry and its relationship to physics. We will be looking at how space might have more than three dimensions, or be combined with time, or be closed in on itself in different ways (such as the surface of a sphere or a donut), or be curved in various ways. Our current theories and observations in physics indicate that space and time
