A newly-developed mathematical method can detect geometric structure in neural activity in the brain. The method is a first step toward developing a new mathematical toolkit to uncover the structure ...

To study the origin and evolution of the universe, physicists rely on theories that describe the statistical relationships between different events or fields in spacetime, broadly referred to as ...

Archaeologists working in northern Mesopotamia say they have uncovered visual patterns that look a lot like structured ...

Ramanujan’s insights into pi are now guiding scientists toward a deeper understanding of how the universe works.

Rethink math education in India to foster mathematical thinking, enhancing reasoning and problem-solving skills beyond just ...

A simple mathematical model has helped chemists selectively synthesise a novel interwoven catenane structure. Researchers say models such as these may help improve chemists’ understanding of how to ...

Children with fetal alcohol spectrum disorder (FASD) have a number of cognitive deficits. Mathematical ability seems particularly damaged in children with FASD. A new study supports the importance of ...
