This course offers an enriched approach designed for honors students. Pure mathematics seminars are structured in order to engage students in dynamical mathematical subjects, including cutting-edge unsolved problems in pure/theoretical mathematics such as real analysis, complex analysis, geometry, topology, number theory, logic, experimental mathematics, as well as mathematical typesetting and document preparation, advanced topics, careers in mathematical science, mathematical writing and speaking, math conferences, math competitions, and math service learning. MATH 290 F and MATH 290HF differ from other Mathematics Seminars in that the topics are exclusively devoted to theoretical mathematics and proofs in it. Topics assigned to honors students will emphasize additional rigor and depth, and honors students will participate in local, regional, and/or national competitions and conferences in mathematical science. Seminar courses in mathematics can be taken in any order. (Degree Credit) (CSU) (UC Review required)Usually HeldTue 4:30pm–6:35pm
