- **Event Description**: Knots have profound and beautiful mathematical properties - in this lecture we will explore all of them, from shoe laces to DNA.About this EventKnots are ubiquitous in the world around us, appearing as tangled cords, shoelaces, or the complex structures of DNA. Far from being nuisances, knots have profound and beautiful mathematical properties with tentacular connections to geometry, topology, physics, and biology. In this lecture, I will introduce the fascinating world of knot theory, exploring how the mathematical study of knots helps us understand and predict their formation, stability, and behaviour. A lecture by Professor Alain Goriely.This event is also available to watch live online.
