Abstract
There seems to be no end to the mathemagical entertainment to be had with a
simple deck of cards, drawing from ideas in algebra, combinatorics and
probability. We'll present a sampling, both recent and classical, drawn from
the speaker's 2013 book on the subject.
Hinweis
The material is very much in the spirit of the influential writer Martin Gardner,
and it can be used to liven up parties and mathematics classes, as well as
providing jumping-off points for undergraduate independent study and seminars.
