More students should be taking advanced math.

Commentary: America has a math problem — too few students who may be ready for more challenging math are not given the chance ...

I won’t forget my first day in geometry class. I tried…but the memory is too painful. I could grasp algebra because the girl ...

Think about placing dots on a flat surface. You want as many pairs as possible to be separated by the same distance. For any amount of dots, what is the greatest possible number of pairs that can be ...

For nearly eight decades, some of the sharpest minds in mathematics stared at a deceptively simple question about dots on a flat surface and couldn’t crack it. An AI just did. OpenAI announced that ...

For generations, mathematicians have tried and failed to solve an 80-year-old problem. In May, an artificial intelligence (AI) model successfully tackled it. OpenAI, the maker of ChatGPT, said one of ...

Place any number of dots on a two-dimensional plane—say, a piece of paper—and measure the distance between each pair. If you rearrange the dots, how many pairs could be positioned exactly the same ...

The planar Hall effect is a tabletop diagnostic tool for special quantum properties useful in basic research and technological applications. Or so it was thought, because careful calculation by Kobe ...

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 ...

Fez – For decades, one of mathematics’ most famous unsolved puzzles resisted the efforts of researchers around the world. Now, an artificial intelligence model developed by OpenAI has achieved what ...
