Unexpected connections
Dear Colleagues, Mathematicians typically pursue ideas in a particular line of work but sometimes results from one line of research produce "facts" that suggest that two seemingly independent approaches reflect a deeper connection that is not understood. This recent article in Quanta Magaz...

Scheduling round robin tournaments
Dear Colleagues, Scheduling round robin tournaments where each of a group of teams typically plays one game against each of the other teams in the group raises a variety of interesting mathematical questions dealing with optimization issues and fairness issues. Here is a recent contribution to ideas...

Decentralized matching
Dear Colleagues, The seminal paper of David Gale and Lloyd Shapley (about college admissions) has generated a large volume of both theoretical and applied ideas about various "matching" problems. Here are two recent examples (variants of the same "circle" of ideas) that unify and...

Chromatic number of the plane
Dear Colleagues, What is the minimum number of colors required to color the plane having no two points at Euclidean distance 1 from each other having the same color? This problem is often called the Hadwiger–Nelson problem. It is one of those simple to state and hard to answer questions that regular...

Assigning teachers to schools
Dear Colleagues, In some settings algorithms are used to assign teachers to schools. The ideas here are related to Gale/Shapley stable matchings notion and other related models that come up in allocation problems and school choice problems. One is concerned with efficiency and fairness. Here is a re...
