another shot of me at mathematician's bench in krakow in one of my new mandelbrot fractal sweaters https://knityak.com/collections/mandelbrot Nikodym and Banach are Polish mathematicians caught in conversation as they were in 1916 when Steinhaus overheard them and posed a math problem that Banach solved two days later. Fun fact, Mandelbrot was also born in Poland though he was ethnically Lithuanian Jewish and considered himself French-American (I'm also French-American). math knows no borders. #history #math #knit #wearableart #fractal #mandelbrot #mathematicians

    Steinhaus also invented the Three-Body Problem discussion format later, which became foundational to how mathematicians collaborate today.
