This page provides quick links to lecture notes that I have written for various classes: CS254: A graduate class on computational complexity (Stanford) [Spring 2010 Class Home Page] [Notes for Lectures 1-8] CS278: A graduate class on computational complexity (Berkeley) [Spring 2001 Class Home Page] [Fall 2002 Class Home Page] [2001 Lecture Notes in book…
Five years ago, around Christmas 2012, I wrote an article about Cynefin, the sensemaking framework. I focused it on software development, because that was the main industry I worked in, and particularly focused on using it to work out which of our requirements were complex, so that we could embrace uncertainty and risk, and avoid…
This series of three talks will give a nontechnical, high level overview of geometric complexity theory (GCT), which is an approach to the P vs. NP problem via algebraic geometry, representation theory, and the theory of a new class of quantum groups, called nonstandard quantum groups, that arise in this approach.
The EDRL research group works around a theoretical strain (embodied cognition), a methodological line (design-based research), and a disciplinary emphasis (mathematics). Thus, the laboratory hosts the full cycle of design-research projects that are geared to contribute to theory and practice of multi-modal mathematical learning and reasoning as well as to design theory.
