The amplituhedron, a shape at the heart of particle physics, appears to be deeply connected to the mathematics of paper folding.

An unknot (also known as the trivial knot) can be drawn with any number of crossings. Any possible manipulation of a knot ...

Take a look back at some of the greatest moments of Mike Trout's Major League career leading up to his 400th home run ...

An international team of authors led by Ilka Agricola, professor of mathematics at the University of Marburg, Germany, has investigated fraudulent practices in the publication of research results in ...

Imagine that a middle school student — at the click of a button — could use generative AI to produce a mathematically precise, beautifully rendered image to bring a difficult math problem to life.

Abstract: Dynamic Programming suffers from the well-known "curse of dimensionality", further exacerbated by expectations in stochastic systems. This paper presents a Monte Carlo-based sampling ...

Mike Tauchman tracks a fly ball and makes a stunning catch to take away a two-run home run from Giancarlo Stanton and end the top of the 3rd inning ...

How likely you think something is to happen depends on what you already believe about the circumstances. That is the simple concept behind Bayes' rule, an approach to calculating probabilities, first ...

A cold country is about to discover a summer problem. The grid was built for winter peaks and steady hydro. The load is now shifting, weather is more violent, and supply is less firm. That is not a ...
