What we’re about
“The unknown thing to be known appeared to me as some stretch of earth or hard marl, resisting penetration… the sea advances insensibly in silence, nothing seems to happen, nothing moves, the water is so far off you hardly hear it.. yet it finally surrounds the resistant substance,” thus wrote Grothendieck, the greatest mathematician of the 20th century, summarizing his philosophy of doing mathematics. This group is dedicated to those who wish to pursue the type of understanding that “makes it all obvious.”
There will be weekly seminars and structured goals.
Our current goal is to solve all the problems in Harvard’s qualifying exams in math.
