Finding Gemstones

The purpose of this blog is to record some of the particularly beautiful mathematical ideas Marie Gillespie has seen or invented and share them with you. The process of doing mathematics is like a quest to uncover mathematical truths. Sometimes, such a truth may be valid but uninteresting, just another pebble or grain of sand along the beach. But other times, you will uncover a gemstone – a particular aesthetic, beautiful, or useful truth hiding in the vast sandpiles of information.
