The Dobble game has some intriguing mathematical properties, beyond its circular-shaped cards. Exploring which Dobble decks can be constructed leads to a simple yet fascinating combinatorial problem, while determining which symbols to place on which cards involves aspects of projective geometry. Luigi Amedeo Bianchi (Associate Prof., Dept. of Mathematics) will show us how to customize our own deck to make it even “better” than the ones available for purchase.
