On June 10, 1854, Georg Friedrich Bernhard Riemann gave his classic lecture on curved space. [‘On This Day in Space’ Video ...
It is with sadness that we announce the passing of Eugene “Gene” Arthur Klotz, who will be remembered for his visionary leadership in mathematics education and his pioneering role in harnessing ...

Finding and configuring the right classroom space can help you realize the potential of a lower-tech pedagogy.
In 1946, the mathematician Paul Erdős posed the unit distance problem—and suggested a winning strategy. An A.I. model has now ...
In mid-May, OpenAI announced that an internal AI model had disproved the Erdős unit distance conjecture, a famous problem in ...
The closest the field has come to solving the planar unit distance problem, first proposed in the 1940s, was in 1984. Now, OpenAI claims an internal model has cracked the puzzle.
Ha Huy Tai, chair of Tulane University's mathematics department, will spend two to three months a year in Hanoi for three years co-supervising Vietnamese doctoral candidates.
OpenAI announced this week that one of its general-purpose reasoning models made a breakthrough that has grabbed the attention of elite mathematicians.
Three mathematicians just proved a famous 30-year-old conjecture in geometry, with only a tiny assist from AI. The conjecture says that even within enormous, scattered and chaotic assemblages of ...
A 150-year-old rule in geometry has been proven wrong. Mathematicians found two different doughnut-shaped surfaces that look identical when measured locally but are actually different overall. For ...
