It might sound strange to think about physics (which often involves a lot of theory and hypotheticals) helping people solve mathematics problems. However, physics follows many math patterns very ...
You will never be able to prove every mathematical truth. For me, this incompleteness theorem, discovered by Kurt Gödel, is one of the most incredible results in mathematics. It may not surprise ...
The original version of this story appeared in Quanta Magazine. At the turn of the 20th century, the renowned mathematician David Hilbert had a grand ambition to bring a more rigorous, mathematical ...
Your brain calculates complex physics every day and you don't even notice. This neuromorphic chip taps into the same idea.
At the heart of every resonator — be it a cello, a gravitational wave detector, or the antenna in your cell phone — there is a beautiful bit of mathematics that has been heretofore unacknowledged.
The 2026 Winter Olympics in Milan and Cortina d'Ampezzo will showcase athletes' prowess and the fascinating science of winter sports. From physics in ski jumping and sliding sports to mathematical ...
