Each group should pick a topic and email the class
so everyone will know that the topic is taken.
Most of the topics are at least mentioned in your textbook, so that would be a
good place to start your research. Your poster will be expected to go beyond the
material in the book.
Outlines of plans for posters, including lists of sources, descriptions of
intended plots, examples, etc. should be submitted by the end of week 8 (March 9).
Completed posters will be presented on the evening of March 29.
Important: You must cite all resources used, in an appropriate form.
Mathematical topics (in particular 7 and 8) should include proofs.
