Love it!!! Will introduce this site to my 9yr grandson to show the fun ways to enjoy math.

Yes uncle your website breaks!


Posted by Jon Selig10:18, 15 12 2009LSBU
Robin,
just to add some more theorems to you to-do list.

love your effort robin, top site that is great value.

I recently bought an A level maths book to try and brush up on the maths I've forgotten since my college days. Its thank's to this site I got back into maths in the first place.

Many thanks!

I have been fooling with math too. I really love it. Memorizing binary code and numbers are what I'm into now

Do you email the Theorem of the Day.
Please add me to your list - thanks.

Yes, Congrats guys!

Big Congratulations and Mahalo on the Women's Theorems 2009 Calendar. Will anyone agree with me that the classic Konigsburg Bridge problem reduces to solving 3 equations in 2 unknowns?? Thank you for input.

Maths is my passion also!


Posted by John12:53, 30 06 2009UK
This has also resparked my interest in Maths. I love it - many thanks!

There is no simple algebraic formula for the catenary_

A great site even though I find the mathematics very difficult but the real mathematician I work with are using the calendar with their A level students.

Dear Robin, your website is such a treasure trove of mathematical ideas - I will keep on coming back for more!!

Had some fun today with the Borsuk-Ulam Theorem. The ingredients were a tailor's tape measure, a ruler and a 'mathematical balloon' (on which I had scribbled numbers). And you know, I did find number correspondences!

The real challenge will of course be to express some of my findings in a painting...

With many thanks for feeding me a diet of mathematical concepts! :-)

Oooh I just love todays theorem! Very harmonious! Keep up the excellent imagery for a simples way to success Mr.Whitty!

Absolutely love todays theorem!! Pretty, colourful, intriguing and full of suprises! Happy Birthday to Ms. Sidhu today too! Keep up the good work! x

Very glad to meet Website like this.
Hope this is one giant step to let people outside of mathematical world
know what we are doing and concerning
...
It is very useful for the mathematician
to know the other side of mathematical world.

What a wonderful site for a retired Head of Mathematics Department! Keeps up my interest in both the history and content of mathematics. It also brings back many memories (both good and bad) dealing with the subtle nuances of the subject.
Well done, Robin.

hi do you remember me??
I'm korean we met near the new cross gate before 10 days.
your homepage is really intereting..
I'm not sure whether you see or not but, I'll just try

What a delight the cows are today!! ooooh so pretty :)

Keep up the good visuals as well as the intriguing maths!


Posted by Carrie Rutherford15:39, 12 03 2008LSBU
Well, here I am. As you know, I think theorem of the day is GREAT, and I have spread the calendars far and wide.


Posted by Gagan12:52, 06 03 2008London
Congratulations on the calendar and spreading the word on theorems. Look forward to you next batch of theorem calendars


Posted by Candida11:28, 27 02 2008Salford University
Thank you for brigthening up my days with your beautifully-drawn and colourful theorems! They make maths seem approachable, even to those who scraped through their maths GCSE. Continue to delight!

Congratulations on your 100 theorems! Slightly belatedly, many thanks for the calendar of theorems by women mathematicians. It is an inspiration every day.


Posted by Cahit15:28, 21 02 2008www.emu.edu.tr/~cahit/
Remarkable achievement. Hope to see other 100 theorems soon.

I was told about Theorem of the Day be
a colleague. I am delighted he did.
Congratulations !!!

Hi Robin,

Congratulations on reaching that magic number! And how appropriate to celebrate the historic occasion of Theorem 100 with a mathematical object containing word 'century' in its description.

Keep up the good work!

Best wishes,

Tony.


Posted by John16:37, 19 02 2008London
The calendar looks cool!


Posted by Pinky15:14, 19 02 2008London
As a non-mathematician, I can only appreciate the theorems from an aesthetic point of view - but love the links to artwork too!


Posted by Charles Wallingford15:03, 19 02 2008Donostia
Keep up the good work!
