Producing the files

This page contains only the screen versions of talks. Instructions at the foot of the page explain how to create a printer version if you want one.

Most of these are talks at conferences or research seminars. I have highlighted in red talks which were designed for a more general audience (usually non-mathematicians, non-specialists, undergraduates, or high school students).

Pre-beamer


Producing the files

Apart from the last batch, theseare either the Beamer slides of the talks or versions made with the handout option to Beamer, which simply ignores pauses and produces one page per frame. My default Beamer font is Palatino, using the mathpazo package.

Print versions can be produced as follows. If the output from the screen version is called x1.pdf, then run pdflatex on the following input file:

\documentclass[a4paper]{article}
\usepackage{pdfpages}

\begin{document}
\includepdf[pages=1,landscape=false,frame=false,noautoscale=false]{x1.pdf}
\includepdf[pages=2-last,nup=2x3,landscape=false,frame=true,
            noautoscale=true,scale=0.7,delta=0mm 5mm]{x1.pdf}
\end{document}
This puts the first slide on the front page and the others 3 rows and 2 columns per page.

Note that the filename occurs twice!

If you don't have a handout version of the slides, note the numbers of the last slide of each frame and put the list of these numbers in place of 2-last.
