Sam Raskin has wrapped his head around a math problem so complex it took five academic studies — and more than 900 pages — to solve. The results are a sweeping, game-changing math proof that was ...

A graduate student recently harnessed the complexity of mathematical proofs to create a powerful new tool in cryptography.

Five years ago, mathematicians Dawei Chen and Quentin Gendron were trying to untangle a difficult area of algebraic geometry involving differentials, elements of calculus used to measure distance ...

The race is on to develop an artificial intelligence that can do pure mathematics, and top mathematicians just threw down the gauntlet with an exam of actual, unsolved problems that are relevant to ...
