 ustrating Geometry (and Topology)</a>\nby Saul Schleimer (University of Wa
 rwick) as part of Illustrating Math Seminar Online\n\n\nAbstract\nAccordin
 g to Poincaré\, "geometry is the art of reasoning well from badly drawn f
 igures'' [1895].  In this talk I will give an informal discussion of 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\, intera
 ctive web apps\, and 3D printing to illustrate mathematics.\n

 lising Abstractions</a>\nby Edmund Harriss (University of Arkansas) as par
 t of Illustrating Math Seminar Online\n\n\nAbstract\nThe process of illust
 rating mathematics is in some ways the reverse of mathematical modelling. 
 Instead of trying to make systems in mathematics that reflect the physical
  world\, it tries to create images and objects in the world and that refle
 ct mathematical structure. What does it mean to tie models as closely as p
 ossible to abstract ideas\, and how can this help both study mathematical 
 ideas and also find new applications for mathematics\, especially in manuf
 acturing?\n

 sted topological tangles or: the knot theory of knitting</a>\nby Sabetta M
 atsumoto (Georgia Tech) as part of Illustrating Math Seminar Online\n\n\nA
 bstract\nImagine a 1D curve\, then use it to fill a 2D manifold that cover
 s an arbitrary 3D object – this computationally intensive materials chal
 lenge has been realized in the ancient technology known as knitting. This 
 process for making functional materials 2D materials from 1D portable clot
 h dates back to prehistory\, with the oldest known examples dating from th
 e 11th century CE. Knitted textiles are ubiquitous as they are easy and ch
 eap to create\, lightweight\, portable\, flexible and stretchy. As with ma
 ny functional materials\, the key to knitting’s extraordinary properties
  lies in its microstructure. At the 1D level\, knits are composed of an in
 terlocking series of slip knots. At the most basic level there is only one
  manipulation that creates a knitted stitch – pulling a loop of yarn thr
 ough another loop. However\, there exist hundreds of books with thousands 
 of patterns of stitches with seemingly unbounded complexity. The topology 
 of knitted stitches has a profound impact on the geometry and elasticity o
 f the resulting fabric. We have developed a formalization of the topology 
 of two-periodic weft knitted textiles using a construction we call the swa
 tch [1]. Using this construction\, we can prove that all two-periodic weft
  knits form ribbon links [2]. This puts a new spin on additive manufacturi
 ng – not only can stitch pattern control the local and global geometry o
 f a textile\, but the creation process encodes mechanical properties withi
 n the material itself. Unlike standard additive manufacturing techniques\,
  the innate properties of the yarn and the stitch microstructure has a dir
 ect effect on the global geometric and mechanical outcome of knitted fabri
 cs.\n\nThe authors were partially supported by National Science Foundation

 hematical Technocraft</a>\nby Laura Taalman (James Madison University) as 
 part of Illustrating Math Seminar Online\n\n\nAbstract\nBy combining mathe
 matics\, technology\, and craft we can produce physical and visual artifac
 ts that help us discover and explore new ideas. We'll discuss a range of t
 opics from knot theory to the fiber arts\, and use code\, 3D printing\, an
 d vintage punch card knitting machines to create pattern generation tools 
 and physical models that illustrate and clarify the underlying mathematics
 . We'll also discuss the ups and downs of design processes that include ch
 allenges that arise from intersecting mathematics\, technology\, and craft
 ing.\n
