Behavioural studies have revealed that the processing and representation of numerical magnitude are qualitatively similar across species and across human development. Reliable effects such as the ...

Homological algebra and representation theory form a powerful confluence in modern mathematics. Homological algebra provides a framework for analysing algebraic structures via chain complexes, ...

Several fields of mathematics have developed in total isolation, using their own 'undecipherable' coded languages. Mathematicians now present 'big algebras,' a two-way mathematical 'dictionary' ...

Representation theory was initially dismissed. Today, it’s central to much of mathematics. When representation theory emerged in the late 19th century, many mathematicians questioned its worth. In ...
