Mathematicians are challenging the idea that dark energy is responsible for the accelerating expansion of the universe. In a new paper published in Proceedings of the Royal Society A, mathematicians ...
Artificial intelligence built by OpenAI has cracked a decades-old conjecture by Paul Erdős, which mathematicians have hailed ...
New placement rules: AB1705 requires most California community college students to start in transfer-level math, aiming to close equity gaps. Faculty pushback: Instructors warn the law sidelines ...
Many students in elementary grades struggle to grasp the perennially vexing concept of fractions. If those struggles persist into middle school, it can undermine their ability to master more complex ...
Decades of failed attempts couldn't stop this iconic sci-fi saga from breaking the mold and establishing a new standard for ...
The closest the field has come to solving the planar unit distance problem, first proposed in the 1940s, was in 1984. Now, OpenAI claims an internal model has cracked the puzzle.
In a new open-access study that I published with my late colleague Kostya Trachenko from Queen Mary University of London, I propose a surprisingly simple nonlinear mathematical equation that unifies ...
An asteroid or a nuclear war can end the world. Mathematical musings from one’s armchair cannot. Birth rank seems to have no ...
OpenAI claims its reasoning model disproved a geometry conjecture unsolved since 1946 — and this time, the mathematicians who ...
OpenAI makes big splash with AI finding math problem breakthrough. Real lesson is to use AI to find counterexamples. An AI ...
AI math proof verification reached a new frontier as DeepMind’s AlphaProof Nexus solved nine open Erdős research problems with Lean-verified proofs, some unsolved for 56 years. The May 2026 Science Ne ...
Bipartisan House talks on expected artificial intelligence legislation are coalescing around a plan to preempt a specific set of state laws that rein in cutting-edge AI developers, according to two ...
