The Return of the Infinitesimal?. So far on this course we’ve stayed close to mainstream mathematics.. In this final session we look at some more “fancy” material, much of it very recent.. These aren’t just techniques for doing complicated calculations – they represent new ways to think about geometry and continuity, and so they promise to raise some old philosophical questions. .
