Join us for a captivating journey through the mathematical ages! As Stirling celebrates its 900th anniversary, our public lecture explores the mathematical landscape of the twelfth century, looking at what mathematicians were studying then and how the subject has advanced in the intervening 900 years. Plus, we’ll unravel intriguing properties of the number 900 itself.
