  • Möbius Bridges
    { Final version for JMA - Nov 2, 2017 } Möbius Bridges Carlo H. Séquin CS Division, University of California, Berkeley E-mail: [email protected] Abstract Key concepts and geometrical constraints are discussed that allow the construction of a usable bridge that is topological equivalent to a Möbius band. A multi-year search in publications and on the internet for real-world bridges that meet these requirements has not identified a single clean construction that warrants the designation “Möbius bridge,” but a few promising designs can be found. Several simple but practical designs are presented here. 1. Introduction July 2017 marks the twentieth installment of the annual Bridges conference [1], which elucidates the connections between mathematics and art, music, architecture, and many other cultural venues. This year the conference has been held in Waterloo, Canada. In its twenty-year history it has visited many places around the globe, including Seoul in South Korea, Coimbra in Portugal, Pécz in Hungary, and Leeuwarden in the Netherlands, the hometown of M.C. Escher. This conference series got started by Reza Sarhangi [2] at Southwestern College in Winfield, Kansas. After a few occurrences at this initial location, Reza Sarhangi and other core members of this conference started discussing the possibility of establishing some kind of a commemorative entity of the conference on the Winfield campus. Since Escher, Möbius, and Klein are among the heroes of this Math-Art community, suggestions included an Escher Garden, a Möbius Bridge, or a Klein Bottle House. This prompted me to study the feasibility of such entities; and over the following year, I developed some practical designs for bridges and buildings that follow the geometry of a Möbius band [3].

  • Bridges: a World Community for Mathematical Art
    Accepted manuscript for The Mathematical Intelligencer, ISSN: 0343-6993 (print version) ISSN: 1866-7414 (electronic version) The final publication is available at Springer via http://link.springer.com/article/10.1007/s00283-016-9630-9 DOI 10.1007/s00283-016-9630-9 Bridges: A World Community for Mathematical Art Kristóf Fenyvesi Mathematical Art Reborn: Academic Gathering or Festival of the Arts? This is not the first time the Mathematical Communities column has featured the Bridges Organization: the 2005 conference1, in the breathtaking Canadian Rocky Mountains at Banff, was described in these pages by Doris Schattschneider [Schattschneider, 2006], a regular Bridges participant and Escher-specialist. The 2005 conference saw the debut of Delicious Rivers, Ellen Maddow’s play on the life of Robert Ammann, a postal worker who discovered a number of aperiodic tilings.2 Marjorie Senechal, The Mathematical Intelligencer’s current editor-in-chief, served as Maddow's consultant.3 A theatre premiér at a conference on mathematics? A production performed by mathematicians, moonlighting as actors? But this is Bridges. A quick look at the 2005 conference relays the “essence” of this scientific and artistic “happening” resembling a first-rate festival of the arts. True to its title, Renaissance Banff, the 2005 Bridges gave all members of its community, whether based in the sciences or the arts, the feeling that they had helped bring about a genuine rebirth. I use “community” in its most complete sense—including adults, children, artists, university professors, art lovers and local people—for the wealth of conference activities could only be accomplished through the participation of each and every individual present.

The approximately 200 visitors to the conference from 25 different countries will be coming to Leeuwarden to participate in a broad program of mathematical connections in art, music, architecture and science. Associated with the conference is a highly varied programme Gerard Caris > Polyhedral Net of cultural activities open to the general public that will run through Structure # 1, 10 August 2008. During the Open Day held on 29 July 2008, you can 160 x 95 x 95 cm become acquainted with a number of scientists and artists whilst young and old can participate in various workshops on Grote Kerkstraat in Exhibitions in churches Leeuwarden. The winners of the Gateways to Fryslân Competition will be announced during the conference. The artists exhibiting their work have come from abstract mathematical backgrounds to create many different visual products. Some artists, such as Gerard Caris (1925), limit their oeuvre to a single theme. In his case, this is the pentagon. In the village of Zweins, this artist will be showing a selection of his work including his ‘Polyhedral Net Structure # 1’.

  • A Mathematical Art Exhibit at the 1065 AMS Meeting
    th A Mathematical Art Exhibit at the 1065 AMS Meeting The 1065th AMS Meeting was held at the University of Richmond, Virginia, is a private liberal arts institution with approximately 4,000 undergraduate and graduate students in five schools. The campus consists of attractive red brick buildings in a collegiate gothic style set around shared open lawns that are connected by brick sidewalks. Westhampton Lake, at the center of the campus, completes the beauty of this university. More than 250 mathematicians from around the world attended this meeting and presented their new findings through fourteen Special Sessions. Mathematics and the Arts was one of the sessions that has organized by Michael J. Field (who was also a conference keynote speaker) from the University of Houston, Gary Greenfield (who is the Editor of the Journal of Mathematics and the Arts, Taylor & Francis) from the host university, and Reza Sarhangi, the author, from Towson University, Maryland. Because of this session it was possible for the organizers to take one more step and organize a mathematical art exhibit for the duration of the conference. The mathematical art exhibit consisted of the artworks donated to the Bridges Organization by the artists that participated in past Bridges conferences. The Bridges Organization is a non-profit organization that oversees the annual international conference of Bridges: Mathematical Connections in Art, Music, and Science (www.BridgesMathArt.org). It was very nice of AMS and the conference organizers, especially Lester Caudill from the host university, to facilitate the existence of this exhibit. The AMS Book Exhibit and Registration was located at the lobby of the Gottwald Science Center.

Universalist and Particularist Discourses on the Intersection of Reality, Truth and Beauty Tuuli Lähdesmäki Abstract The history of the Western civilisation can be seen as a continuum of epistemological battles and alliances between two modes of grasping and describing the world. According to these conflicting views, the world has been grasped either through particular or universal explanations. These two views have formed a dualistic scholarly context which has directed philosophers, artists, and scientists to discuss whether the world and its diverse phenomena can be perceived and explained through the universal laws of mathematics and science or rather as culture-bound narrations and symbols; whether the world is best represented using the language of mathematical formulas and equations or that of the arts.
