In #MathsToday I'm getting ready for Oxford Online Maths Club tomorrow, where DPhil student Alice will introduce General Relativity to an audience of mostly #ALevelMaths students. You / your students could join in too; it's free (no sign-up!) with over 100 other episodes at www.maths.ox.ac.uk/r/club
Oxford is switching from MAT to TMUA for Maths, Computer Science, and joint honours, as part of a wider move to UAT-UK tests. See www.maths.ox.ac.uk/r/tmua for info and resources. As you can imagine, our website says MAT in lots of places, please bear with us as we change them all to TMUA! ^James

Small admissions update for 2027 entry; the standard conditional A-level offer for joint-honours Maths & Computer Science at Oxford will now be A*A*A incl. A* in Maths and Further Maths (where available), the same as the other Mathematics courses at Oxford. www.ox.ac.uk/admissions/u...
Yesterday I saw a question here about mixed partial derivatives and it got me thinking about how a surface might or might not have d^2 f / dx dy = 0 if we rotate it. Today I saw these two ruled surfaces at #TMiP25 made by Laura Bradby. No such thing as coincidence in maths!

I'm in the semiprime of my life!
(I've realised that my age is the middle of three consecutive semiprimes (each is the product of two primes). Fun fact; you never get four semiprimes in a row. Can you see why?)
