Artificial Intelligence (AI) is rapidly advancing—and with it, the promise of solving some of academia's toughest problems.

After an OpenAI model presented a possible solution to the Navier-Stokes problem, mathematicians are speculating about which ...

Clavina combines linear and nonlinear quantum operations, advancing light-based quantum computing and error correction.

Linear programming (LP) is among the most fundamental optimization techniques. However, solving LP problems on conventional digital hardware is increasingly constrained by the polynomial computational ...

German psychologist Wolfgang Köhler set up a famous experiment more than 100 years ago that changed how scientists understand animal intelligence and the power of insight — or spontaneous ...

In a new study, bumble bees solve a completely novel object-manipulation task. What makes this behavior especially remarkable is that the bees had never been trained. The findings challenge the ...

Bumblebees faced with a challenge know how to play ball. Buff-tailed bumblebees can figure out on their own how to use a ball as a ladder to nab sugar from an out-of-reach fake flower, researchers ...

It started almost by accident. At my startup Dwelly, I constantly push the limits of what AI tools can actually do. One day I just typed into a chat: “Can you prove P ≠ NP?”—referring to the problem ...

Tessellations aren’t just eye-catching patterns—they can be used to crack complex mathematical problems. By repeatedly reflecting shapes to tile a surface, researchers uncovered a method that links ...

Among high school students and adults, girls and women are much more likely to use traditional, step-by-step algorithms to solve basic math problems – such as lining up numbers to add, starting with ...
