SUMMARY:Excursions into the Mathematical Universe: How Mathematics Shapes the Digital World: From Computer Games and Secure Online Shopping to Social Networks
DESCRIPTION:A series of popular science lectures titled “Excursions into the Mathematical Universe.” The lectures are primarily intended for students of secondary schools in the Primorska region\, but they are also open to the general public. Researchers and university lecturers will present ancient and modern mathematical concepts and their applicability in various fields of science\, natural sciences\, and social sciences in an accessible way. \n\nHow Mathematics Shapes the Digital World: From Computer Games and Secure Online Shopping to Social Networks \nHow do 3D models in video games move and rotate? How does your password turn into an incomprehensible string of characters? And how can we determine who is the most influential person on a social network? The answer lies in linear algebra. In this lecture\, we will explore how simple mathematical operations on vectors make all of this possible. \nAbout the lecturer: Safet Penjić was born in Zenica (Bosnia and Herzegovina)\, where he completed primary and secondary school. He completed his undergraduate studies at the University of Zenica and his master’s studies at the University of Sarajevo (Bosnia and Herzegovina). He earned his PhD in 2019 at the Faculty of Mathematics\, Natural Sciences and Information Technologies\, University of Primorska\, Koper. As a doctoral student\, he received a Fulbright scholarship and conducted part of his research at the University of Seattle (USA). His research area is algebraic and combinatorial graph theory. In his free time\, he solves mathematical puzzles\, engages in sports\, follows developments in the computer world\, listens to music\, and writes a textbook on linear algebra. He lives and works in Koper. \n\n\nFurther below\, you are kindly invited to read and view the following materials related to the event: \n\nThe invitation with the program is available at this link.\nEvent materials are available at this link.\nPhotos from the event:
