• #### Aperiodic Order and Spectral Properties ﻿

[SNAP-2017-003-EN] (Mathematisches Forschungsinstitut Oberwolfach, 2017-09-14)
Periodic structures like a typical tiled kitchen floor or the arrangement of carbon atoms in a diamond crystal certainly possess a high degree of order. But what is order without periodicity? In this snapshot, we are ...
• #### A few shades of interpolation ﻿

[SNAP-2017-007-EN] (Mathematisches Forschungsinstitut Oberwolfach, 2017-12-07)
The topic of this snapshot is interpolation. In the ordinary sense, interpolation means to insert something of a different nature into something else. In mathematics, interpolation means constructing new data points ...
• #### News on quadratic polynomials ﻿

[SNAP-2017-002-EN] (Mathematisches Forschungsinstitut Oberwolfach, 2017-07-18)
Many problems in mathematics have remained unsolved because of missing links between mathematical disciplines, such as algebra, geometry, analysis, or number theory. Here we introduce a recently discovered result concerning ...
• #### Solving quadratic equations in many variables ﻿

[SNAP-2017-012-EN] (Mathematisches Forschungsinstitut Oberwolfach, 2017-12-30)
Fields are number systems in which every linear equation has a solution, such as the set of all rational numbers $\mathbb{Q}$ or the set of all real numbers $\mathbb{R}$. All fields have the same properties in relation ...
