    Which extended forms of a well known mathematical object were inspired by a tennis ball and were devised while making a memorial to the man who created the original?

    		The tennis ball might make you think of games, sets and matches. One of those is very relevant here.

    The simple form of this maths object is something well-known that many of us will have encountered at school. The memorial of its inventor, at a location in England, is quite clear.
