A straightforward conjecture about runners moving around a track turns out to be equivalent to many complex mathematical ...

Microsoft Math Solver is a free tool that uses AI to recognize both printed and handwritten math. It’s particularly strong with geometric proofs and interactive graphing, and it pulls learning ...

Researchers in China published a paper describing a theoretical model for photonic computing that used light particles instead of electrons for faster processing. The team developed “parallel optical ...

Baez called for the development of new mathematics — he called it “green” math — to better capture the workings of Earth’s biosphere and climate. For his part, he sought to apply category theory, a ...

Here’s what you’ll learn when you read this story: Scientists in China are suggesting a new model of computing that could massively shorten processing time—if it works, that is. To contextualize their ...

A reader named Sam told me he has a problem. His Windows computers aren't playing nice with each other. Unlike his iPad and iPhone, they're never in sync.

Educators believe AI eventually follow in the steps of calculators. Elementary students still will learn the basics of ...

AI could soon spew out hundreds of mathematical proofs that look "right" but contain hidden flaws, or proofs so complex we can't verify them. How will we know if they're right?

According to Eclipse, the intersection of artificial intelligence and formal mathematics may fundamentally reshape how ...
