# SUMS: Dai -- Who Wants to be a Millionaire?

Hello everyone,

After Ben’s incredible talk last week (my students are already much less
dumb!), I thought I would have trouble coming up with a follow-up talk. But
this is not the case. Apparently my powers of persuasion work once every
full moon.

This week’s talk is by another close friend of mine, Zhuo Jia Dai. Zhuo is a
former SUMS speaker actually, although he has not given a talk this year.
However, that will change this Friday when he gives his world famous "Who
Wants to be a Millionaire?" talk. Among other things, he will be discussing
the well known P=NP problem, which is an important and unsolved question in
theoretical computer science. Definitely a talk not to miss.

Talk: Who wants to be a Millionaire?
Speaker: Zhuo Jia Dai
Location: Carslaw 452
Date/Time: Friday September 19, 1-2pm.

Hope to see you there.

Gareth
