| Title of Talk | Generalized Augmented Happy Numbers |
| Abstract | What makes a number a happy number? Is it sitting on the beach with no cares in the world or is there more to it than that? In this talk, we'll mathematically define happy numbers and discuss some properties. We'll explore some of their properties and look at variations on the idea of happy numbers to see if we can extend any of these properties. This work was done collaboratively with other undergraduate math faculty at a Research Experience for Undergraduate Faculty this summer at the American Institute for Mathematics, so there will also be a short plug for REUs and the REUF. |
