Algebraic Numbers in motion

Various animations of what happens to the roots of polynomials with integer coefficients when changing each coefficient. The results are pretty.

Complex points of Weierstrass elliptic curves

Link

with Silviana Amethyst

An elliptic curve is usually depicted as a donut or as the real points of its Weierstrass equation. These don't look related. Silviana and I explored representations of the complex points of the Weierstrass equation using computer renderings, virtual reality, and 3D prints.

A project headed by Kate Stange with the goal of creating a suite of visualization tools for the study of integer sequences. I participated in Fall 2018-Spring 2019 and Spring 2020.

u-substitution

Link

We can think of u-substitution visually as consisting of a horizontal stretch, which screws up areas, then a vertical stretch to compensate. This is a tool to see that.
