To come up with a result as weird as this, you need to be using some equally mind-bending math – and indeed, this paradox comes to us from the world of set theoretic geometry. If that’s not familiar ...

An international team of authors led by Ilka Agricola, professor of mathematics at the University of Marburg, Germany, has ...

Tipping points in our climate predictions are both wildly dramatic and wildly uncertain. Can mathematicians make them useful?

By institutionalising muhūrta s within mathematics, the UGC is effectively telling students that astrological determinism is ...

Abstract: The distributed set-membership filtering is investigated for linear discrete systems with incomplete measurements. A new ellipsoid-based event-triggered mechanism is proposed, which utilizes ...

Scientists may have uncovered the missing piece of quantum computing by reviving a particle once dismissed as useless. This particle, called the neglecton, could give fragile quantum systems the full ...

Blaise Pascal was a teen mathematical genius who built a mechanical calculator before most kids finish schoolwork on their own. Several years later, a gambling question led him to found the ...
