Since the start of the 20th century, the heart of mathematics has been the proof — a rigorous, logical argument for whether a given statement is true or false. Mathematicians’ careers are measured by ...
There's a simple way to learn geometry over the summer. It is easy and fun. Imagine Euclidean geometry: the video game. If your experience in high school geometry was anything like mine, it probably ...
Daniel R. Grayson is professor emeritus of mathematics at the University of Illinois. He was a friend of Voevodsky from 1994 and worked with him on computer proof checking. Vladimir Voevodsky ...
Save Euclid's Island from Osgard The goal of the game is simple - build an army to defeat the evil dragon, Osgard. Behind each level are the properties of shapes, with each move you are interacting ...
A few weeks ago, an animated discussion unfolded in a WhatsApp group whose members are mathematicians interested in the Indian Mathematical Olympiad. The spark was a Nature paper that announced a ...
