When the Leiden Declaration on Artificial Intelligence and Mathematics went live on 2 June 2026, things moved quickly. The ...

Large language models can write essays, summarize legal clauses, explain ancient history, draft emails, and produce code that looks impressively official. Then you ask one to multiply two awkward ...

Healthcare policy is increasingly justified through the language of numbers, yet numerical precision does not guarantee sound reasoning. Some of the most damaging public health controversies, from ...

Fidget toy trading is just one trend that highlights where kids and young people are at with financial literacy, and what social media is teaching them. Another example is the lucky scoops trend, ...

Noether discovered that for every continuous symmetry of a system, there is a conserved quantity—that is, a quantity that ...

The Department of Mathematical Sciences invites applications for a two or three-year Postdoctoral Teaching Fellow beginning August 2026. This twelve-month appointment has a teaching responsibility of ...

A new benchmark pitting AI against previously unseen maths problems shows that systems still fall short of top human expertise. Artificial intelligence has undergone its most scrupulous maths test yet ...

Artificial intelligence is mastering the kinds of projects that have long helped to build the careers of young mathematicians. What does that mean for their future? Credit...Illustrations by Yoshi ...

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 ...

Abstract: As quantum computing technology continues to advance, the development of post-quantum cryptography (PQC) methods capable of resisting quantum computing attacks has emerged as a key research ...

Three mathematicians have laid out proof that solves a long-standing problem in mathematics. Even the mathematician—an Abel prize winner—that first posed the problem didn't believe it would ever be ...

On May 20, 2026, OpenAI announced that its internal AI model had disproven a long-held prediction regarding the 'unit distance problem,' a central unsolved problem in discrete geometry. The unit ...
