For most of the past century, mathematicians have been exploring the limits of Ramsey theory, the study of order hiding inside chaos—or, more accurately, how much disorder can be packed into a system ...

How can you have a proof without proving anything? Mathematicians found a way and, in the process, came to blows over it – but 100 years on, this trick is a common part of modern maths, says columnist ...

Originally written as a tongue-in-cheek joke, the song became one of the band's biggest sing-a-long hits.

A research team based in China says its artificial intelligence system has done something no AI has publicly done before: independently solved an open problem in pure mathematics that had stumped ...

Hello, this is Zaiakukan (Guilt). This time, we will be dealing with this problem. Prove that a square with side length 1 whose sides are parallel to the coordinate axes (including the perimeter) ...

Earlier this month the Mathematics Institute at Uppsala University hosted a conference called Categorification in Algebra and Topology, clearly a theme close to our collective heart. As yet there are ...

The theorem provides a clever way to rewrite the gradient, turning an intractable problem into a solvable one. It accomplishes two things: it moves the gradient operator inside the expectation, and it ...
