In mid-May, OpenAI announced that an internal AI model had disproved the Erdős unit distance conjecture, a famous problem in discrete geometry that had stumped human mathematicians for the last 80 ...

In October 2024 I attended a workshop at Harvard University where mathematicians talked through the uses of artificial intelligence in their field. Most were less worried about the future of math than ...

Fractal interpolation functions (FIFs) arise from the marriage of classical interpolation and fractal geometry, yielding curves that exactly pass through prescribed data points while exhibiting ...

Interpolation theory provides a systematic means of constructing intermediate spaces between two given function spaces, capturing properties such as smoothness, integrability and decay in a single ...

Despite its slightly toy-like looks, the MPC Sample is a fast and fun machine that channels the spirit of its early-'90s predecessors. Fun, fast workflow reminiscent of classic MPCs. Chopping and ...

Five years ago, mathematicians Dawei Chen and Quentin Gendron were trying to untangle a difficult area of algebraic geometry involving differentials, elements of calculus used to measure distance ...

The future elementary school teachers that Mark Montgomery works with at Stephen F. Austin State University in Nacogdoches, Texas, share a common fear: Most of them are “extremely anxious” about math.

We’re seeing some new developments in AI models that are shedding light on one of the technology’s most prominent gaps – its relative inability to do math well. Some experts note that AI is ...
