Speech by Bernhard Riemann, the Greatest Mind the World Has Ever Known
Today we're going to talk about the meaning of life, the universe, and everything. Or, at the very least, we're going to talk about how we can apply Riemannian geometry to our everyday lives.
But first, let me tell you, it's not just about the numbers, it's about the art. You see, my fellow mathematicians, the Riemannian surface is not just a surface, it's a work of art.
And if you don't believe me, just think about it. A sphere, a torus, a Klein bottle. These are not just shapes, they're masterpieces. And we can apply them to everything, from the design of your living room to the architecture of your brain.
So, let's dive in, shall we? Let's explore the depths of the Riemannian surface, and find out what secrets it holds for us.
Or, if you prefer, let's just take a look at the graph of the Riemannian zeta function. It's a real treat. I mean, who doesn't love a good graph?
