In 1900, at the grand amphitheater of the Sorbonne in Paris, David Hilbert stood before a crowd of mathematicians and ...

Ah, math. Take an easy problem we all studied in our teens, scale it up by just a couple of steps, and suddenly you’re facing ...

Mathematicians have devised a new way to solve higher-order polynomial equations, ushering in a 'dramatic revision of a basic ...

The new proof broadly consists of three steps: derive the macroscopic theory from the mesoscopic one; derive the mesoscopic ...

You may have seen the “no-lift pencil” puzzles online — challenges that ask you to draw a shape without lifting your pencil ...

Euler’s identity is a special case of a foundational equation in complex analysis, Euler’s Formula, which he discovered in 1744. It shows how any complex number can be obtained by rotating a ...

The study, published in AIP Advances, outlines how a set of six differential equations—based on Euler’s equations for rotating rigid bodies—can be used to simulate a bowling ball’s trajectory with ...

That’s exactly what happened in 1900 at the International Congress of Mathematicians at Sorbonne University in Paris.

Differential equations may improve training regimens and tournament design for bowlers.
