* what has sphere packing to do with compression?

• role of E8 & Leech lattice in optimal codes
• mathematically best compression was never used
• ikosahedron

* surfaces ∑

I show this paper to college freshmen because
• it’s pictorial
• it’s about an object you mightn’t have considered mathematical
• no calculus, crypto, ML, or pretentious notation
• it’s short
• it’s a classification proof: “How can it be that you know something about _all possible_ X, even the xϵX you haven’t seen yet?’

* good combinatorics

Programmers are used to counting boring things. Why not count something more interesting for a change?

* added comentaries from commit messages.  more consistent formatting.

* graphs

Programmers work with graphs often (file system, greplin, trees, "graph isomorphism problem" (who cares) ).   But have you ever tried to construct a simpler building-block (basis) with which graphs could be built? Or at least a different building block to build the same old things.

This <10-page paper also uses 𝔰𝔩₂(ℂ), a simple mathematical object you haven’t heard of, but which is a nice lead-in to an area of real mathematics—rep theory—that (1) contains actual insights (1a) that you aren’t using (2) is simple (3) isn’t pretentious.

* from dominoes to hexagons

why is this super-smart guy interested in such simple drawings?

* sorting

You do sorting all the time. Are there smart ways to organise sub-sorts?

* distributed robots!!

Robots! And varying your dimensionality across a space. But also — distributed robots!

* knitting

Get into knitting.

Learn a data structure that needs to be embedded in 3D to do its thing.

Break your mind a bit.

* female genius

* On “On Invariants of Manifolds”

2 pages about how notation and algorithms are inferior to clarity and simplicity.

* pretty robots

You’ll understand calculus better after looking at these pretty 75 pages.

* Farey

Have another look at ye olde Int class.

* renormalisation

Stéphane Mallat thinks renormalisation has something to do with why deep nets work.

* the torus trick, applied

In Simons Foundation’s interview by Michael Hartley Freedman of Robion Kirby, Freedman mentions this paper in which MHF applied RK’s “torus trick” to compression via wavelets.

* renormalisation

Here is a video of a master (https://press.princeton.edu/titles/5669.html) talking about renormalisation. Which S Mallat has suggested is key to why deep learning works.

* Cartan triality + Milnor fibre

This is a higher-level paper, but still a survey (so more readable). It ties together disparate areas like Platonic solids (A-D-E), Milnor’s exceptional fibre, and algebra.

It has pictures and you’ll get a better sense of what mathematics is like from skimming it.

* Create see.machine.learning

* tropical geometry

Recently there have been some papers posted about tropical geometry of neural nets. Tropical is also said to be derived from CS. This is a good introduction.

* self-similarity by Tom Leinster

Again on the topic of renormalisation. Dr Leinster has a nice, simple picture of self-similarity.

## Mathematics
* :scroll: [The Transcendence of Pi](https://github.com/papers-we-love/papers-we-love/blob/master/mathematics/transcendence-of-pi.pdf) by Steve Mayer
* :scroll: [Tilings](https://github.com/papers-we-love/papers-we-love/blob/master/mathematics/tilings.pdf) by Ardila
The paper covers a broad swath of the topic on analysis of tiling, and related strategies.
* :scroll: [From Dominoes to Hexagons](https://github.com/papers-we-love/papers-we-love/blob/master/mathematics/from-dominoes-to-hexagons.pdf) by Thurston
A paper on the generalization of tilings across different base planes.
* :scroll: [Graph Isomorphism and Representation Theory](https://github.com/papers-we-love/papers-we-love/blob/master/mathematics/graph-isomorphism-and-representation-theory.pdf) by Daniel Litt
The *graph isomorphism problem* shows how to construct graphs using a simple building-block ("basis"). The same method applies to finding different building blocks to construct the same things. This technique can be applied to file systems, greplin, trees, virtual DOM, etc.
A short paper, it also shows how to use `𝔰𝔩₂()` as a simple mathematical object that leads into the area of real mathematics—represention theory.
* :scroll: [Conway's ZIP proof](https://www.maths.ed.ac.uk/~v1ranick/papers/francisweeks.pdf) by George Francis and Jeffrey Weeks
This paper presents a classification proof: "How can it be that you know something about _all possible_ `X`, even the `xϵX` you havent seen yet?" The well-diagramed discussion requires no calculus, crypto, ML, or dense notation, making it good for most knowledge levels.
* :scroll: [Packing of Spheres](http://neilsloane.com/doc/Me109.pdf) by N. Sloane
Discusses the role of E8 & Leech lattices in optimal codes for mathematically-ideal compression. Ikosahedrons, a tool in this investigation, are also presented.

* :scroll: [What is a Young Tableaux?](https://www.ams.org/notices/200702/whatis-yong.pdf) by Alexander Yong
Young Tableau appear in combinatoric problems, representation theory, and the calculus of Grassmannians. Another common topic is sorting, and smarter ways to organise sub-sorts.
