This is to report that Ameli Gottstein, who won the Christmas Maths Quiz, has chosen as her prize to have a new mathematical structure, a group of symmetries in multi-dimensional space, named after her. (Others similarly honoured include the footballers Jermain Defoe and David Bentley.)
A description of Ameli's group will shortly appear. If you want to name one of these amazing mathematical structures after someone, all you have to do is make a donation to Marcus du Sautoy's favourite charity and Marcus will name a group for you. This makes an excellent present (I think) and is in a very good cause.
