Topic: 

Coloring with Crayons

Description: 

Abstract:

 

In this talk we discuss various colorings of the Euclidean Plane and some of its subsets. The notion of Ramsey-Type configurations is introduced and a few familiar configurations are examined to determine which of them are Ramsey-Type and which ones are not so. To make the talk more accessible,we will begin with a potpourri of proof-techniques encountered in Ramsey Theory.
