Convex geometry/konvexe Geometrie

If students who do not speak German want to participate, the class will be held in english. Else we can speak German. Of course, questions can be asked in German any time, and the teachers know German well, so this is not an obstruction for any German speaking student.

If you have questions about the class, please contact Hannah Markwig.

The class takes place Tuesday and Thursday 8-10 in N14.

The class will be accompanied by exercise classes, the weekly time slot for this will be determined in the first class.
