Title: From Chicken McNugget Theorem to Frobenius Coin Problem and Beyond

Abstract: Chicken McNuggets were sold in packs of 6, 9, and 20. What is the largest number of McNuggets which you cannot buy? Professor Takao Komatsu will explore this problem and generalize it to a deep research program in linear Diophantine equations.

Professor Komatsu is also our colloquium speaker at Wednesday 3:30 in MLH 105.

Professor Komatsu will visit us the whole week and his office is 225K and you are welcome to chat with him.
