Large language models struggle to solve research-level math questions. It takes a human to assess just how poorly they ...

Mathematicians finally understand the behavior of an important class of differential equations that describe everything from ...

But, both of these would require large structural changes for a course that teaches hundreds of students a year — something that can’t really happen in the near term. What could happen now, though, is ...

When a student first learns how a simple equation can explain the motion of planets or the behaviour of light, it sparks more than academic interest--it awakens a lifelong curiosity about how the ...

Urschel involved the crowd in his explanation of linear systems. He used an example problem of finding the ages of two ...

My visit to Istanbul at the end of April 2016 also had to do with enabling annotations. Not in the brain but on the web.

If you are planning a trip through several cities and want to find the shortest route, you resort to algorithms, a well-defined sequence of deterministic operations. This article accompanies the ...

The South Florida Water Management District held a python hunt in December with cash prizes. Kevin Pavlidis won multiple awards, including for most pythons captured and the longest python. The ...

Neuromorphic computers, inspired by the architecture of the human brain, are proving surprisingly adept at solving complex mathematical problems that underpin scientific and engineering challenges.

Hannah Cairo shook the math world when she disproved the Mizohata-Takeuchi conjecture, a 40-year-old unsolved math problem, when she was only 17. Well ahead of her peers in math, Cairo applied to ...
