Smooth structure

In mathematics, a smooth structure on a manifold allows for an unambiguous notion of smooth function. In particular, a smooth structure allows one to perform mathematical analysis on the manifold. (Wikipedia).

Crystalline vs Amorphous materials

Materials are either crystalline or amorphous. They contain long-range periodic order or they do not. This leads to very different properties! Crystalline materials can be either polycrystalline or single crystal in nature. we can see evidence of single crystals in faceting of crystal face

SmoothLife multiscale 1

SmoothLife with three scales, i.e. outer radii differing by factors of 3, similar to McCabe's multiscale Turing patterns. The rules on all three scales are the same, although they could also be different. Download from sourceforge available http://sourceforge.net/projects/smoothlife/ .

SmoothLife6

This came as a surprise. Although it looks like an example with smooth time-stepping, it is not. It is with original, simple time-stepping. I'm not exactly sure what this means. Maybe my smooth time-stepping method is superfluous.

Complex surfaces 4: Ruled surfaces

This talk gives an informal survey of ruled surfaces and their role in the Enriques classification. We give a few examples of ruled surfaces, summarize the basic invariants of surfaces, and sketch how one classifies the surfaces of Kodaira dimension minus infinity.
