A Deep Dive into Mathematicians’ Questionable Outfits
Being able to prove the most impressive theorems and having a good sense of fashion need not be mutually exclusive - except it might be? This will be up to you to judge in this talk. Together, we’ll apply the most unscientific of methodologies to create a tier list of mathematicians based solely on their dressing style - from Euclid’s timeless toga to Grothendieck’s "I’ve been living in a forest for five years" aesthetic. Be sure to bring your best outfits, otherwise you might end up in a bored grad student's tier list one day.
