A Quarter a Century of Discovering and Inspiring Young Gifted Mathematicians: All the Best from Colorado Mathematical Olympiad
Abstract
Quarter a century ago, I founded the Colorado Mathematical Olympiad. The Colorado Mathematical Olympiad is the largest essay-type in-person mathematical competition in the United States, with 600 to 1,000 participants competing annually for prizes. In this article, I explain what it is, how it works, give examples of problems and solutions, and share with the reader careers of some of the Olympiad's winners.
