We've wondered for centuries whether knowledge is latent and innate or learned and grasped through experience, and a new ...

Differential equations are fundamental tools in physics: they are used to describe phenomena ranging from fluid dynamics to general relativity. But when these equations become stiff (i.e. they involve ...

Meta, Mila-Quebec Artificial Intelligence Institute, the University of Montreal, and Princeton University have proposed a ...

A geometry problem over a century old has just found its definitive answer. Mathematicians have confirmed that the solution proposed by Henry Dudeney in 1907 was indeed the most efficient possible.

The Pythagorean theorem, a cornerstone of mathematics for millennia, provides a method for determining unknown sides in right-angled triangles using the formula a² + b² = c². Its applications extend ...

Bill Rollins Jr., 97, wrote and self-published 'Trisecting an Angle,' to try to share his solution with the world.

Mathematical language processing and problem solving represent a confluence of artificial intelligence, natural language processing and symbolic reasoning, aiming to bridge the gap between human ...

For his pioneering development of a mathematical theory that has enabled solutions for previously intractable problems, UC Santa Barbara’s Igor Mezić has received the biennial J. D. Crawford Prize ...
