An engineering student refined a century-old math problem into a simpler, more elegant form, making it easier to use and explore. Divya Tyagi's work expands research in aerodynamics, unlocking new ...

This past school year, Cambridge, Massachusetts, placed every eighth grader in Algebra I. It didn’t go well. Ultimately, more than 60% of rising ninth graders will repeat the course. The consequences ...

A PHD in math disproved an 87 year old math problem with about two hours of working with Anthropic Fable. The Jacobian conjecture (JC) has been disproved in dimension 3 (and thus all higher dimensions ...

An Anthropic AI model, Claude Fable 5, helped disprove the 87-year-old Jacobian conjecture, a famous open problem in mathematics dating to 1939. The model produced a concrete counterexample that ...

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 ...

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 ...

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 ...

“If you are a mathematician,” one of the world’s leading mathematicians recently wrote, “you may want to make sure you are sitting down before reading further.” And you’ll definitely need to sit down ...

AI makes a major breakthrough in a math problem that had stumped experts for decades by Paul Arnold, Phys.org edited by Gaby Clark, reviewed by Robert Egan Editors' notes ...
