I’ll start off with a clarification. My students are engineers in the sense that they are PhD students and postdoc in control theory. So they’re very well acquainted with certain sections of modern mathematics: dynamical systems, optimization, some differential geometry, but not so much abstract algebra. The experience with linear algebra is interesting, because itContinueContinue reading “Teaching category theory to engineers (part 4)”

Combinatorics, Lecture 1 (26 Sep 2019)
John Baez is teaching a course on combinatorics this quarter. I’m taking detailed notes and texing them up. I’m also going to start blogging them. Credit to Tim Hosgood for the pictures. Prehistory of the course Larry Harper taught this course in the past. John is going to be talking about combinatorial species. He previouslyContinueContinue reading “Combinatorics, Lecture 1 (26 Sep 2019)”
