UKMT is thrilled to see the Einstein Mad Hat Awards covered in The New York Times.

UKMT and the National Museum of Mathematics in New York, announced a joint competition to celebrate the discovery of the Hat Tile, an “Einstein” or aperiodic monotile, a shape which can tile the plane but can only do so non-periodically (in a non-repeating pattern).

Prizes were awarded on 12 December at The House of Commons to the winners – congratulations to all. Thank you to everyone who took part. See some of the fantastic entries in article below.

Special thank you to our principal sponsor XTX Markets and associate sponsors Jane Street and G-Research.
