Donald Knuth: the Stanford Mathematics and Computer Science Video Lecture Series The well-known mathematician and computer scientist Donald Knuth inaugurates the Stanford Video Journal series in 1985 with a course entitled Problem Seminar that deals with unsolved problems in computer programming. This organic, trial and error approach to unsolved problems is an excellent example of the advantages that video has over print for the communication of the process of doing research in mathematics and computer science. Other classic Knuth lectures are available via his Stanford Home Page.
The Mathematical Sciences Research Institute VMath Video Archive exists to further mathematical research through broadly based programs in the mathematical sciences and closely related activities. This library of open educational resources feature over 400 video lectures on math topics. These university level course are available for free download. The most popular item this week is Irving Kaplansky's Fun with Mathematics, Some Thoughts from Seven Decades
Duke University Classroom Mathematics Series contains all recorded lectures produced in the Duke University Mathematics Department Multimedia Classroom. The collection includes videos of the Applied Mathematics and the Geometry/Topology Seminars. Of special interest are the: String Theory Seminars: Lectures on String Theory from the Center for Geometry and Theoretical Physics KDI Seminar: Lectures covering the special topic of the study of the intricate and little-understood complexities of how liquids flow through porous media such as geological formations.
Geometry Analysis Numerics Graphics, aka GANG lab at U. Mass, Amherst contains visualizations of many mathematical surfaces.
Dangerous Knowledge In this one-off documentary, David Malone looks at four brilliant mathematicians - Georg Cantor, Ludwig Boltzmann, Kurt Gödel and Alan Turing - whose genius has profoundly affected us, but which tragically drove them insane and eventually led to them all committing suicide. |
