The Webinar on the Mathematics of Infinity took place on Thursday, June 9th, 2022 from 4 pm until 5 pm with Dr. Diego Gonzalez-Moreno, Professor of Mathematics at the Cuajimalpa Metropolitan Autonomous University in Mexico, as our invited speaker. This virtual event was free and open to the general public.
The invited speaker explained what infinity is and presented that there are bigger infinities than others and that there are infinite infinities. Dr. Diego Gonzalez-Moreno described why the infinite set of the real numbers is bigger than the infinite set of the natural numbers. The speaker also mentioned that Cantor’s continuum hypothesis was proven to be true and false at the same time, and therefore, there exists Cantorian and non-Cantorian mathematics. This virtual event was co-organized with the Mexican Mathematical Society (SMM).
