Neuromorphic computers, inspired by the architecture of the human brain, are proving surprisingly adept at solving complex ...

He solved one of the hardest problems in mathematics — a million-dollar challenge that had defeated everyone for decades. Then, without taking the prize, the fame, or the spotlight… he vanished. This ...

For four decades, a quiet boundary in pure mathematics kept a powerful theorem locked inside the safe world of finite quantities. Now a new result known as Sebestyen’s theorem has pushed that boundary ...

When I was in middle school, I had a classmate who would look at trigonometric functions and yell, "I will never need these!" ...
