Hidden Fibonacci numbers, a new shape and the search for a grand unified theory of mathematics are among our choices for most ...

Meta's work made headlines and raised a possibility once considered pure fantasy: that AI could soon outperform the world's best mathematicians by cracking math's marquee "unsolvable" problems en ...

Artificial intelligence has moved from checking homework to attacking problems that professional mathematicians once treated ...

Mahesh Kakde, professor of mathematics at the Indian Institute of Science, Bengaluru(Infosysprize.org) Winner of the the Infosys Prize 2022 in Mathematics for his contributions to algebraic number ...

The basic building blocks of the whole numbers remain mysterious.

The Collatz conjecture is also known as the “3n + 1” problem. It’s an easy problem to explain and check, and has been tested up into the nineteen figure range. But it’s only now that anyone has come ...

The Poincaré conjecture can be understood by analogy with the case in two dimensions. A two-dimensional space, or surface, is like a bubble made from an infinitely thin film of soap. If the bubble is ...

The Collatz Conjecture is a deceptively simple math problem. It has only two rules. First, pick any number. If it's even, divide it by two. If it's odd, multiply it by three and add one. This will ...

Monstrous moonshine, a quirky pattern of the monster group in theoretical math, has a shadow -- umbral moonshine. Mathematicians have now proved this insight, known as the Umbral Moonshine Conjecture, ...
