Upcoming Lecture
Secrets of mental math
With Arthur Benjamin
Professor of Math at Harvey Mudd College and Professional Magician
Dubbed "America's Best Math Whiz" by Reader's Digest, Arthur Benjamin performs complex
computations with a machine faster than a calculator – his own brain. In his world-renwoned
presentation "Mathemagics," he'll teach you how to do the same!
This conversation will take place in SAC Ballroom A on Saturday, December 13 at 12:00 pm. It is free and open to the public.
Convergence: Mathematical insights for a changing world
Convergence brings together leading thinkers at the crossroads of mathematics, technology, and society. Each lecture explores how math connects with pressing questions of our time — from artificial intelligence to education, creativity, and problem-solving.
Designed for students, educators, and the wider community, the series highlights how mathematical insight converges with human ingenuity to shape the future.
The series is offered by Stony Brook University’s Institute for Creative Problem Solving collaboration between the National Museum of Mathematics (MoMath), Brookhaven National Laboratory.
