In the mid-noughties, when music by the Killers and Franz Ferdinand blared out of every pub and nightclub I passed, I spent ...

The bat-and-ball problem is a famous math puzzle that more than half of people—even Harvard graduates—get wrong. It's ...

The second batch of “First Proof” problems is meant to evaluate AI’s usefulness for research-level math. The best model got six or seven of the ten questions right.

The result is correct but challenges core norms of mathematics: checking proofs, crediting ideas and keeping research open to everyone.

In mid-May, OpenAI announced that an internal AI model had disproved the Erdős unit distance conjecture, a famous problem in discrete geometry that had stumped human mathematicians for the last 80 ...

After 80 years of fruitless struggle by human mathematicians, a major geometry conjecture has at last been solved—via a straightforward query to a chatbot. “No previous AI-generated proof has come ...

Abstract: Recently, in the paper [Z.G. Huang, L.G. Wang, Z. Xu, J.J. Cui, Some new preconditioned generalized AOR methods for solving weighted linear least squares ...

Penn researchers have developed a smarter AI method for solving notoriously difficult inverse equations, which help scientists uncover hidden causes behind observable effects. By introducing ...

A team of UCLA computer scientists and mathematicians has been awarded a three-year, $5 million grant by the Defense Advanced Research Projects Agency to develop artificial intelligence tools aimed at ...

Fuzzy optimisation techniques have emerged as a powerful framework for addressing multi-objective programming problems under uncertainty. In classical multi-objective programming, decision-makers seek ...

A team of students from American Heritage School’s Palm Beach County campus has been named a finalist in the MathWorks Math Modeling Challenge, an international competition that tasks students with ...
