We define a translation surface and explain its relations to many fields of math such as Riemann surfaces, negatively curved geometry, measured foliations, and billiards. There will be a short crafts project that you can follow along with using just paper and scotch tape. Speaker(s): Christopher Zhang (University of Michigan)
