YouTube channel
I want to help young mathematicians to deal with the psychological struggles of doing math,
as well as to popularize math community and research in abstract mathematics.
To do that, I run my YouTube channel "Math-Life Balance"!
Videos are uploaded on Fridays at 6 pm CET.
Podcast version is maintained by Emil Jacobsen.
Comments, critics or encouragement via e-mail are welcome.
Enjoy the videos and please spread the word!
Updates:
I posted a new series of videos, "Math Empathy",
which answer some existential questions that I receive from students.
Let me know if it helps & share it with your students!
Previously I made a series of videos, "K-theory Wonderland",
which attempt to popularize abstract math!
Here is the first math video, and here is a masterpiece made by Jeremiah Heller.
Feedback is very welcome!
