Imagination and reason in Mathematics

Philosophical Remarks When did we first fall in love with mathematics? For me, it was in class 6. My father exposed me to a problem from Euclidean geometry. We were traveling in Kausani. After days of frustration and failed attempts, I could put together the ‘reason’ that made ‘everything fit together perfectly’. The problem was […]

ফ্রি গ্রুপের গ্রোমোভ সীমান্তে একলা থাকেন ক্যান্টর

মানচিত্র আঁকছিলাম। রাস্তা গুলো সোজা সোজা। উত্তর, দক্ষিণ, পুব, পশ্চিমে যাওয়া যায়। এক ধাপ ডাইনে গেলে, সঙ্গে সঙ্গে এক ধাপ বাঁয়ে ফেরার নিয়ম নেই। (তাহলে আর ডাইনে গেলাম কেন!) তেমনি একধাপ উত্তরে গেলে, সঙ্গে সঙ্গে একধাপ দক্ষিণে ফেরাও মানা। 

মানচিত্র আঁকতে আঁকতে দেখলাম এক উদ্ভট দেশ তৈরি হচ্ছে। সে দেশের প্রতি চৌমাথায় অসীম সব রাস্তা। সে সব রাস্তা আবার একে অপরের সঙ্গে তেমন দেখা সাক্ষাৎ করে না। এ হেন দেশের সীমান্ত নিয়ে আমাদের যত মাথা ব্যাথা। খুঁজতে খুঁজতে বেড়িয়ে পড়ল এক আজব কিস্যা!

সীমান্তে একলা দাঁড়িয়ে আছেন ক্যান্টর। 

বাকি আড্ডা ভিডিও তে।
