A Russian mathematician has developed a new method for analyzing a class of equations that underpin models in physics and economics and are considered "eternal" as they have challenged researchers for ...

Last December, several members of a national organization for math education leaders came together to issue a warning. A growing movement in the field, they claimed, was calling on schools to adopt an ...

Pendulum have revealed details of their biggest-ever London show. After headlining the massive 65,000-capacity Milton Keynes Bowl last summer, the Perth drum’n’bass titans are keeping the momentum ...

Images of plants painted on pottery made up to 8,000 years ago may be the earliest example of humans’ mathematical thought, a study has found. Researchers from the Hebrew University of Jerusalem ...

The pendulum at the museum is attached to a 61-foot-long cable. It typically swings as the Earth rotates, knocking down pegs, until it suddenly stopped this month. The Houston Museum of Natural ...

Computers are extremely good with numbers, but they haven’t gotten many human mathematicians fired. Until recently, they could barely hold their own in high school-level math competitions. But now ...

They used powerful mathematical theorems—including Gödel's incompleteness theorem—to prove that a complete and consistent description of everything requires what they call "non-algorithmic ...

In a recent study, mathematicians from Freie Universität Berlin have demonstrated that planar tiling, or tessellation, is much more than a way to create a pretty pattern. Consisting of a surface ...

The pendulum will swing back. It is a phrase invoked repeatedly, with variation, since Donald Trump’s reelection last November. Cable news anchor Chris Cuomo, Senator Angus King, and pollster Nate ...
