[WSG25] Daily Study Group: Problem Solving for Competitive Math

Posted 1 month ago

A Wolfram U Daily Study Group on competition mathematics with Wolfram Language begins on July 21st 2025.

enter image description here

Join me (@shenghuiy) and fellow math enthusiasts as we dive into advanced problem-solving strategies across number theory, geometry, algebra and graph theory/data structures—drawing from prestigious competitions such as the AMC and AIME and problems featured in Crux Mathematicorum. This study group is designed for students aiming for excellence in math competitions and those seeking to deepen their mathematical maturity for future academic success. Along the way, we will integrate Wolfram Language to explore, visualize and verify our ideas, making the most of its symbolic power and computational clarity.

Whether you're preparing for a contest or sharpening your mathematical edge for university studies, this study group offers a unique blend of challenge, insight and community. Some familiarity with Wolfram Language is helpful, but beginners are welcome—we'll guide you to the resources you need to get started.

Feel free to use this thread to exchange ideas, share notes and connect with others on this mathematical journey.

Dates: July 21st-July 25th (Monday through Friday), 11am-12pm CT (4-5pm GMT)

I agree

Hi there! I've already attended all 5 sessions plus I've passed the quiz too. When can i expect my certificate? Thanks

I don't see Friday's Notebook in the downloads.

It should be in the downloading material section for this course.

Where can problems in geometry be found?

POSTED BY: Artur R Piekosz

I have not covered problems in Euclidean geometry in this series of lecture.

POSTED BY: Shenghui Yang

Is the following place a good choice or one can easily find a better one?

Geometry probably there:

You can also google "Sharygin geometric olympiad". This contest has a good selection of geometric problems.

I looked ahead a little at today's Algebra Notebook. I believe that there is an error in the code for Selected Problems 1.1.

I believe that eq1=Sum[a+k*d,{k,1,50}]==200 should be eq1=Sum[a+k*d,{k,0,49}]==200

and eq2 = Sum[a + k*d, {k, 51, 100}] == 2700 should be eq2 = Sum[a + k*d, {k, 50, 99}] == 2700

Thanks for pointing out. Either shift the range like what your have done or use $(k-1)*d$ to keep the current range, or make $a+d$ as the first item. I have updated my notes.
