Check out the new HLFF Blog article by Benjamin Skuse, where he examines connections between discrete and continuous mathematics, as discussed by Abel Prize laureate László Lovász during his talk at the 11th HLF.

Global or local? Linear or nonlinear? Deterministic or stochastic? There are many ways to slice up mathematics. But perhaps one of the most informative is the distinction and parallels between discrete and continuous mathematics, argued László Lovász (Abel Prize – 2021) during his talk at the 11th Heidelberg Laureate Forum. HLFF Blog author Benjamin Skuse unpacks some of the arguments put forth by Lovász in Ben’s latest article.
