Dept. of Mathematics, Ramakrishna Mission Vivekananda Educational and Research Institute (RKMVERI) has organised an colloquium on “Is the square root of 2 very different from the cube root of 2?” by Professor Anish Ghosh, TIFR, Mumbai on 11 November 2021.
Title: Is the square root of 2 very different from the cube root of 2?
