A Mathematician with early access to XAI Grok 4.20, found a new Bellman function for one of the problems he had been working on with my student N. Alpay. Not an Erdős problem, but original research.

There is a rule in mathematics that feels so obvious it barely seems worth stating. Yet accepting it leads to objects with no size, spheres that duplicate themselves, and sets that cannot be measured ...

When a delicate object crashes onto the floor, most people expect it to shatter into several pieces. What they might not know, however, is that the sizes of those fragments—whether from a broken plate ...
