Artificial intelligence is mastering the kinds of projects that have long helped to build the careers of young mathematicians ...

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.

The result is correct but challenges core norms of mathematics: checking proofs, crediting ideas and keeping research open to ...

In 1946, the mathematician Paul Erdős posed the unit distance problem—and suggested a winning strategy. An A.I. model has now ...

I have a confession that probably won't surprise anyone who knows me well: I love reading books about mathematicians. Not because I understand the dense mathematics. I struggled through four semesters ...

A seemingly simple set of rules kicks off a kind of mathematical magic trick, which has kept great minds busy since the 1930s ...

Researchers cracked a 50-year-old math problem scribbled by Richard Feynman over lunch. The equations show that humans are ...
