A UNSW Sydney mathematician has discovered a new method to tackle algebra's oldest challenge—solving higher polynomial equations. Polynomials are equations involving a variable raised to powers, such ...

What if Pi Day, perhaps the best known mathematical holiday, was actually better celebrated in the summer? Currently falling on March 14 — 3/14, in honor of the first three digits of the infamous ...

U.S. magazine Scientific American recently named the work of Dr. Baek Jin-eon among the world’s top 10 mathematical breakthroughs of 2025, highlighting a result that mathematicians have chased since ...

At the intersection of mathematics and music, the Festum Pi festival brings together theorists and performers to explore one of humanity’s oldest intellectual duets. We spoke with participant ...

Polynomial equations are a cornerstone of modern science, providing a mathematical basis for celestial mechanics, computer graphics, market growth predictions and much more. But although most high ...

Mathematicians explore ideas by proposing conjectures and proving them with theorems. For centuries, they built these proofs line by careful line, and most math researchers still work like that today.
