Artificial intelligence is mastering the kinds of projects that have long helped to build the careers of young mathematicians ...
With automated proof-checkers, a problem can be broken up into small chunks, solved bit-by-bit, then reassembled with ...
An experiment with 2,520 participants backs Richard Feynman’s answer to every diner’s dilemma: do I want to try something new ...
A seemingly simple set of rules kicks off a kind of mathematical magic trick, which has kept great minds busy since the 1930s ...
A week after OpenAI made headlines with an A.I.-generated proof, a new “declaration” by 16 experts raises concerns that the technology threatens math as a discipline.

Mathematician Will Sawin discusses his experience reviewing and refining a mathematical proof devised by OpenAI's internal ...
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 ...
Tests of how well 19 large language models (LLMs) complete and perform complicated multi-step tasks has shown that they are both error-prone and, in many cases, unreliable. They said that the ...
Abstract: Partial differential equations (PDEs) are ubiquitous to the mathematical description of physical phenomena. Typical examples describe the evolution of a field in time as a function of its ...
Happy Pi Day! March 14 is the date that otherwise rational people celebrate this irrational number, because 3/14 contains the first three digits of pi. And hey, pi deserves a day. By definition, it’s ...
