Notes:
The slides above are navigable and clickable (in pdf), with links to relevant web pages (indicated by
If you want a printed copy, the handouts provide condensed and collapsed versions of the slides (2x2 slides per page).
The `lecture' pdf's include all the incremental reveals whereas the `slides' pdf's have flattened frames and are better for reading online.
I use the excellent LaTeX class beamer coupled with some peculiar perl scripts to generate these slides.
