Computer chips designed like biological brains can finally handle massive math problems without guzzling energy like a normal supercomputer
When you swing a tennis racket or catch a set of keys, you aren’t thinking about wind resistance or gravity. Yet, to perform that motion, your brain is solving a massive physics problem in ...
Little progress had been made in solving Ramsey problems since the 1930s. Now, researchers have found the answer to r(4,t), a longstanding Ramsey problem that has perplexed the math world for decades.
Alan Veliz-Cuba has received funding from the Simons Foundation and the American Mathematical Society for some of his research. You can probably think of a time when you’ve used math to solve an ...
