500 Years of Mathematics: Are We Living In A New Golden Age?

We are now in an age of great discovery with Mathematics. In this lecture, the last 500 years of mathematics will be reviewed. A lecture by Chris Budd OBE, Gresham Professor of Geometry 30 April 2019 https://www.gresham.ac.uk/lectures-an... Much has happened in the 500 years since the birth of Thomas Gresham, and mathematics is no exception. Most mathematicians were then in awe of the Greeks and felt little had been done since. But the start of modern mathematics soon followed, marked by the solution of the cubic equation. Mathematics has grown explosively since then and we are now in an age of great discovery. The last 500 years of progress in maths will be reviewed, to see where it is going next and ask whether we are truly living in a mathematical Golden Age.
