A team of mathematicians has solved a math problem first posed more than 40 years ago. It took three mathematicians almost 15 years to solve the famous Rota’s Conjecture – a theory first posed by ...

Pick a number; if it is even, divide it by 2; if odd, triple it and add 1. Now repeat the process, each time halving or else tripling and adding 1. Here is a surprise: no matter what number you pick, ...

A new approach has chipped away at a famously unsolved math problem. The Erdos-Turan conjecture in additive combinatorics is one of the longest lasting unsolved problems. The two mathematicians used ...
