Proving Brouwer's Fixed Point Theorem

The video explores the concept of mathematical portals, analogous to the relationship between geometry and algebra, and introduces a portal from topology to algebra. It explains Brouwer's Fixed Point Theorem, illustrating it with maps, and uses the portal to prove the theorem through a proof by contradiction. The video also introduces functors and category theory as mathematical portals, and concludes with an announcement of a challenge problem winner.
