A Peking University-led team has developed a dual-agent AI system that autonomously solved Anderson's 2014 algebra conjecture and formally verified its proof within 80 hours. The system, combining ...

It’s the same math that explains how, under the right conditions, the atmosphere above a barren plain can produce a roiling ...

This is your quest, to come to auditions and prove yourself worthy of joining this demi-god cast of misfits on their journey ...

The painstaking process of formalization to verify proofs is starting to surge thanks to AI. That could radically change the ...

There is a nugget of truth to this idea: About 90 percent of brain cells are white matter and are never used for thinking.

Those changes will be contested, in math as in other academic disciplines wrestling with AI’s impact. As AI models become a ...

New research from UBC Okanagan mathematically demonstrates that the universe cannot be simulated. Using Gödel’s incompleteness theorem, scientists found that reality requires “non-algorithmic ...

A student's struggle with a mocking teacher inspires resilience and success in a math competition, proving the power of support and personal growth.

First formulated in the late 19th century by Austrian physicist and mathematician Ludwig Boltzmann, this principle remains widely used across many disciplines today. Beyond physics, it appears in ...

Eighth graders can be successful in Algebra 1, new research suggests—they just might need some extra support. The findings come from a study of San Francisco schools, which has had a turbulent history ...

San Francisco eighth graders will have the option to take Algebra 1 next year after it was pulled from the school district’s middle school curriculum in 2014, and a yearslong campaign sought to ...

San Francisco is restoring eighth-grade algebra after more than a decade, with the San Francisco Board of Education voting 4-3 Tuesday night to approve the change, reversing a controversial policy ...
