How can the behavior of elementary particles and the structure of the entire universe be described using the same mathematical concepts? This question is at the heart of recent work by the ...

By exploring positive geometry, mathematicians are revealing hidden shapes that may unify particle physics and cosmology, offering new ways to understand both collisions in accelerators and the ...

Physics has a reputation as arguably the most mathematical of the sciences, but exactly what math you need to do physics varies enormously depending on what field you study, and whether you do ...

Noncommutative geometry offers a radical reformulation of traditional geometrical concepts by replacing the classical notion of a manifold with a noncommutative algebra of coordinates.

Long a staple of the high school curriculum, the mathematics-course sequence of Algebra 1, geometry, and Algebra 2 is facing a budding challenge as schools transition to the Common Core State ...

In addition, the transcript study includes only the materials of high school Algebra 1 and Geometry courses, though 20 percent of all 2005 graduates—30 percent of Asian/Pacific Islander students ...

Letters to the Editor: Higher math is everywhere. But should UC require all applicants to learn it? A student takes notes during a lecture in a college algebra class.
