I have very fond memories of high school geometry. Memorizing theorems wasn't too hard, and solving proofs was like solving the logic puzzles that I did for fun anyway. But the theorems were scattered ...

Description: Students will study theorems and work to represent the key concepts using artistic mediums of their choice. Exact choice of mathematical content and artistic mediums will be guided by ...

Scientists have for the first time used artificial intelligence to suggest and prove new mathematical theorems. The potential breakthrough came in a collaboration between mathematicians who specialise ...

A scholar from Kenyon College, Professor of Mathematics Carol Schumacher, is coming to Bates to give two back-to-back talks on Sept. 29 as part of the Annual Richard W. Sampson Lecture Series. Both ...

Napoleon Bonaparte, First Consul. Work by Ingres. It was during this period that he came into contact with the theorems. Credit: Public domain / Wikimedia Commons His political stance allowed him to ...

As I work proofs with my Calculus and Higher Geometries students, I often run across the Greek symbol that, in math, means “there exists." This might show up, for example, in statements such as “there ...

The most important theorem we learnt in childhood carries the name of a Greek philosopher, but not necessarily the legacy. Evidence increasingly shows that the theorem existed long before his lifetime ...

You don’t need a human brain to do maths — even artificial intelligence can write airtight proofs of mathematical theorems. An AI created by a team at Google has proven more than 1200 mathematical ...
