Uploaded August 2015 | Updated September 2026, 2 weeks ago

Exciting news, everyone! One of mathematics' all-time favourites recently learned a couple of stunning new tricks. Prepare to be amazed. Oh, and today's math T-shirt has the title "owl"gebra :)

Enjoy!

P.S.: The basic insight this video is based on is due to the two Russian mathematicians Yuri Matiyasevich and Boris Stechkin. Google their names to find out more :)

$Ramanujans infinite root and its crazy cousins In this video Ill talk about Ramanujans infinite roots problem, give the solution to my infinite continued fraction puzzle from a couple of weeks ago, and let you in on the tricks of the trade when it comes to making sense of all those crazy infinite expressions. Featuring guest appearances by Viharts infinite Wau fraction, the golden ratio and the Mandelbrot set. Here is a link to a screenshot of Ramanujan’s original note about his infinite nested radical puzzle: http://www.qedcat.com/misc/ram_incomplete.jpg Check out the following videos referred to in this video: https://youtu.be/jcKRGpMiVTw Mathologer video on Ramanujan and 1+2+3+... 1/12. This one also features an extended discussion of assigning values to infinite series in the standard and a couple of non-standard ways https://youtu.be/CaasbfdJdJg Mathologer video on infinite fractions and the most irrational of all irrational numbers. https://youtu.be/9gk_8mQuerg Mathologer video on the Mandelbrot set. The second part of this one is all about a supernice way of visualising the infinite expression at the heart of this superstar. https://youtu.be/GFLkou8NvJo Vi Harts video on the mysterious number Wau, a must-see :) Enjoy :)$
