On Aug. 24, Richard Schwartz, professor of mathematics, published a preprint paper to arXiv.org that proved a conjecture that has stumped mathematicians for nearly 50 years: What is the shortest strip ...
The Möbius band is a fascinating object. You can make a simple model of it by joining the ends of a long, narrow strip of paper after giving one end a 180-degree twist. The result is a one-sided, ...
AltDynamic has returned to Kickstarter for 1/22 time to launch its new Mobius Strip a CNC machined anodized work of mathematical art. Open your eyes to the endless possibilities that lie within the ...
Editor’s Note: Published in 1957, this article comes from Martin Gardner’s legendary Scientific American column Mathematical Games. Read more in our special digital issue, Fun and Games. As many ...
At least, George Hart does, because he figured out how to do a two-twist Möbius cut into a bagel. Not bad. But I don’t think it would satisfy my hunger. You can only schmeer one side! Photo by George ...
