Egg Colored Using the Riemann Zeta Function

This Easter egg is colored with the Riemann zeta function. It is the fourth in a series created to entertain Cramer family children. The idea of putting mathematical designs on Easter eggs originated with the author's grandson, Peter, and was greeted with enthusiasm by the author's granddaughter, Elizabeth.


Egg shape adapted by Kathryn Cramer from mathematical descriptions of egg shapes from http://www.mathematische-basteleien.de/eggcurves.htm
