 1/">Illustrating Geometry (and Topology)</a>\nby Saul Schleimer (Universit
 y of Warwick) as part of Illustrating Math Seminar Online\n\n\nAbstract\nA
 ccording to Poincaré\, "geometry is the art of reasoning well from badly 
 drawn figures'' [1895].  In this talk I will give an informal discussion o
 f some famous attempts to draw mathematical figures: some more\, and some 
 less\, badly drawn.  I will finish by discussing some of my own work (with
  Henry Segerman) in this direction\, attempting to use computer graphics\,
  interactive web apps\, and 3D printing to illustrate mathematics.\n

 3/">Realising Abstractions</a>\nby Edmund Harriss (University of Arkansas)
  as part of Illustrating Math Seminar Online\n\n\nAbstract\nThe process of
  illustrating mathematics is in some ways the reverse of mathematical mode
 lling. Instead of trying to make systems in mathematics that reflect the p
 hysical world\, it tries to create images and objects in the world and tha
 t reflect mathematical structure. What does it mean to tie models as close
 ly as possible to abstract ideas\, and how can this help both study mathem
 atical ideas and also find new applications for mathematics\, especially i
 n manufacturing?\n

 betta Matsumoto (Georgia Tech) as part of Illustrating Math Seminar Online
 \n\n\nAbstract\nImagine a 1D curve\, then use it to fill a 2D manifold tha
 t covers an arbitrary 3D object – this computationally intensive materia
 ls challenge has been realized in the ancient technology known as knitting
 . This process for making functional materials 2D materials from 1D portab
 le cloth dates back to prehistory\, with the oldest known examples dating 
 from the 11th century CE. Knitted textiles are ubiquitous as they are easy
  and cheap to create\, lightweight\, portable\, flexible and stretchy. As 
 with many functional materials\, the key to knitting’s extraordinary pro
 perties lies in its microstructure. At the 1D level\, knits are composed o
 f an interlocking series of slip knots. At the most basic level there is o
 nly one manipulation that creates a knitted stitch – pulling a loop of y
 arn through another loop. However\, there exist hundreds of books with tho
 usands of patterns of stitches with seemingly unbounded complexity. The to
 pology of knitted stitches has a profound impact on the geometry and elast
 icity of the resulting fabric. We have developed a formalization of the to
 pology of two-periodic weft knitted textiles using a construction we call 
 the swatch [1]. Using this construction\, we can prove that all two-period
 ic weft knits form ribbon links [2]. This puts a new spin on additive manu
 facturing – not only can stitch pattern control the local and global geo
 metry of a textile\, but the creation process encodes mechanical propertie
 s within the material itself. Unlike standard additive manufacturing techn
 iques\, the innate properties of the yarn and the stitch microstructure ha
 s a direct effect on the global geometric and mechanical outcome of knitte
 d fabrics.\n\nThe authors were partially supported by National Science Fou

 g mathematics\, technology\, and craft we can produce physical and visual 
 artifacts that help us discover and explore new ideas. We'll discuss a ran
 ge of topics from knot theory to the fiber arts\, and use code\, 3D printi
 ng\, and vintage punch card knitting machines to create pattern generation
  tools and physical models that illustrate and clarify the underlying math
 ematics. We'll also discuss the ups and downs of design processes that inc
 lude challenges that arise from intersecting mathematics\, technology\, an
 d crafting.\n
