From Aryabhata’s concept of zero and Euclid’s geometryto the principles that later powered modern computer science, mathematics has been shaped by thinkers across eras. This particular list focuses on ...

Twenty-five leading mathematicians signed an open letter arguing that AI labs are threatening their intellectual work.

Editorial: OpenAI claims its agents have solved the Navier-Stokes problem. But questions remain about how useful and independent its work really is ...

Her challenge focused on the deep connections between polynomial equations such as 4 x2 – 1 = 0 and the symmetries buried in their solutions. Within a few short months of the conference, by ...

Heisuke Hironaka, an influential mathematician who received one of his profession's highest honors for devising an algorithm to handle the sharp edges and pointy peaks of geometry, died on March 18 at ...

Mathematician Tristan Buckmaster believes OpenAI used his work to rush ahead and beat him to solving a legendary math problem with a $1 million bounty. But that’s not been enough for him to stop using ...

Sometimes work in one discipline of pure mathematics has a completely unexpected payoff in another. Some of the famous mathematician Pierre de Fermat’s (1601–1665) work in number theory bears this out ...

A mathematician has cracked an 87-year-old conundrum with the help of AI and announced the solution unceremoniously in a tweet. The finding is the most difficult mathematical problem yet solved by AI, ...
