My colleagues and I have been reexamining some basic time scales operations in order to deeply understand their geometry. Here is an interactive about this.

In doing research on the Fourier Transform, I have had some interesting insights that I would like to share here.

When I am not teaching or writing about mathematics, one of my hobbies is playing Pokemon games. In particular, I have been playing Pokemon Go for the past six years, and have recently started playing Pokemon Scarlet and Violet.

When my wife and I get takeout from a local Italian restaurant, we like to order one slice of cake to split for dessert. The slice of cake is very tall, but very skinny, so it comes in a container laying on its side. The slice is thin enough that we do not want to split the cake by turning it upright and creating two equal slices. Instead, we keep the cake on its side and cut it in a way that creates a wedge as one piece, and the rest of the cake as the other piece.

I recently discovered MARP, which allows the creation of slides from simple markdown. The slides can be exported as HTML, PDF, or Powerpoint once written in markdown.
