Blowing Up in Algebraic Geometry — video lecture

A recorded lecture on blowing up singularities. Watch on YouTube

Implication, proof and light switches

Notes on truth tables, proof by contradiction, by contrapositive and by induction, and light switches. In two versions: a more interactive one, and a simpler one that reads well on a phone.

From the notes, animated: a row of dominoes falling, for proof by induction, and two light-switch circuits checked on every combination of their switches, a statement and its contrapositive
