Tao: Today there are a lot of very tedious types of mathematics that we don’t like doing, so we look for clever ways to get ...

Many students struggle with mathematics at some stage in their educational journey, and similarly it is the same with their parents—they were students too right? And not everyone was good at math.

You can probably think of a time when you’ve used math to solve an everyday problem, such as calculating a tip at a restaurant or determining the square footage of a room. But what role does math play ...

Little progress had been made in solving Ramsey problems since the 1930s. Now, researchers have found the answer to r(4,t), a longstanding Ramsey problem that has perplexed the math world for decades.

Google DeepMind’s AlphaProof and AlphaGeometry 2 are milestones for AI reasoning. This story originally appeared in The Algorithm, our weekly newsletter on AI. To get stories like this in your inbox ...

It’s a breakthrough in the field of random walks.

Ramsey problems, such as r(4,5) are simple to state, but as shown in this graph, the possible solutions are nearly endless, making them very difficult to solve. We’ve all been there: staring at a math ...
