VUB's Data Analytics Lab has published new results showing that it is possible to develop original mathematical proofs using ...

DeepMind’s AlphaProof system solved four out of six problems at the 2024 International Mathematical Olympiad, generating ...

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 ...

If pure math can teach us anything, it’s this: occasionally, your special interest might just change the world. For Joshua Zahl and Hong Wang, that special interest was the Kakeya conjecture. “I read ...

The speed at which artificial intelligence is gaining in mathematical ability has taken many by surprise. It is rewriting ...

Forbes contributors publish independent expert analyses and insights. Dr. Lance B. Eliot is a world-renowned AI scientist and consultant. In today’s column, I examine an insightful AI research study ...

Since the start of the 20th century, the heart of mathematics has been the proof — a rigorous, logical argument for whether a given statement is true or false. Mathematicians’ careers are measured by ...

Number theorist Andrew Granville on what mathematics really is — and why objectivity is never quite within reach. In 2012, the mathematician Shinichi Mochizuki claimed he had solved the abc conjecture ...

Study enables deeper understanding of the Borell-Brascamp-Lieb inequality, which has wide applications across many scientific fields, from physics to economics. What happens when things combine? This ...

For all of the recent strides we’ve made in the math world—like a supercomputer finally solving the Sum of Three Cubes problem that puzzled mathematicians for 65 years—we’re forever crunching ...
