For all of the recent strides we’ve made in the math world—like a supercomputer finally solving the Sum of Three Cubes problem that puzzled mathematicians for 65 years—we’re forever crunching ...

Since the 1990s, evidence has been growing that quantum computers should be able to solve a range of particularly complex computational problems, with applications in everything from supply chain ...

Artificial intelligence has moved from checking homework to attacking problems that professional mathematicians once treated ...

Meta's work made headlines and raised a possibility once considered pure fantasy: that AI could soon outperform the world's best mathematicians by cracking math's marquee "unsolvable" problems en ...

What’s the best way to solve hard problems? That’s the question at the heart of a subfield of computer science called computational complexity theory. It’s a hard question to answer, but flip it ...

Scientists have established a relationship between the complexity of a problem, and the physical processes of entanglement required to solve it. “Some mathematical problems are easy. Some mathematical ...

Solving word problems is a key component of math curriculum in primary schools. One must have acquired basic language skills to make sense of word problems. So why do children still find certain word ...

Our weekly roundup of the latest science in the news, as well as a few fascinating articles to keep you entertained over the ...

When the Clay Mathematics Institute put individual $1-million prize bounties on seven unsolved mathematical problems, they may have undervalued one entry—by a lot. If mathematicians were to resolve, ...
