Two mathematicians now say they’ve made progress on a very old unsolved math problem. The problem involves a subfield called geometric measure theory, in which sets of objects are generalized in an ...

An investigation of the changing behaviour of a single quantum bit through time has uncovered a tantalising similarity to the ...

It all starts with something called the Kakeya conjecture. A “conjecture” is a math guess—an idea that seems true, but nobody ...

The mathematician Tai-Danae Bradley is using category theory to try to understand both human and AI-generated language.

A seemingly simple math problem about dividing pizzas sparked debate when someone highlighted a potential flaw in the assumed answer.
