Lineages with a (maybe associate) professor in Bergen at some time, having published in algebraic geometry: (Paoli-…Castelnuovo…-Hironaka)-Holme-Vatne, (60s Paris-Laudal)-Strømme-Fløystad, (Euler/Leibniz-…Chasles…-Peskine)-Johnsen-Knutsen (Euler/Leibniz-…Gauss…-Pareschi)-Tirabassi.

From Laksov87: «About ten years after Chasles introduced the two characteristic numbers for systems of conics and gave the formulas (1) for the degenerate conics, T. A. Hirst (31, 33-35] observed that a similar theory could be built up around correlative plane figures.»

ICYMI there's a new episode of @viktorblasjo.bsky.social's podcast out this week, first new episode in over a year. A fun listen as always
Torricelli’s trumpet is not counterintuitive
There is nothing counterintuitive about an infinite shape with finite volume, contrary to the common propaganda version of the calculus trope known as Torricelli’s trumpet. Nor was this result seen as...

Takk for det gamle! (Thank you for the year that was, and remember 2025=(20+25)^2=(0+1+2+3+4+5+6+7+8+9)^2=0^3+1^3+2^3+3^3+4^3+5^3+6^3+7^3+8^3+9^3)

#Introduction. I'm a programmer at BCEPS (Bergen Center for Ethics and Priority Setting in health), where we develop FairChoices; a decision support tool for national priority setting processes. Math interests: projective duality, rational curves (think conics) and enumerative geometry.
