A new puzzle piece for string theory research: Study proves 4-graviton scattering conjecture

November 20, 2024 Phys Org

String theory aims to explain all fundamental forces and particles in the universe—essentially, how the world operates on the smallest scales. Though it has not yet been experimentally verified, work in string theory has already […]

Math

Mathematical approach can predict crystal structure in hours instead of months

November 14, 2024 Phys Org

Researchers at New York University have devised a mathematical approach to predict the structures of crystals—a critical step in developing many medicines and electronic devices—in a matter of hours using only a laptop, a process […]

Math

A 41-million-digit prime number is the biggest ever found—but mathematicians’ search for perfection will continue

November 14, 2024 Phys Org

Imagine a number made up of a vast string of ones: 1111111…111. Specifically, 136,279,841 ones in a row. If we stacked up that many sheets of paper, the resulting tower would stretch into the stratosphere.This […]

‘Shallow’ sports and ‘deep’ social hierarchies: Not all pecking orders are created equally

November 6, 2024 Phys Org

University of Michigan researchers have added a new dimension to the mathematics used to predict the outcomes of all manner of competitions, including sports, games and social hierarchies in both humans and animals.This article was […]

Math

Probability training: Preventing errors of reasoning in medicine and law

November 6, 2024 Phys Org

How trustworthy is a positive HIV test result? How probable is an actual infection when the test is positive? Even professionals often get such questions wrong, which can lead to misdiagnoses and unnecessary surgeries.This article […]

Math

Hard in theory, easy in practice: Why graph isomorphism algorithms seem to be so effective

November 6, 2024 Phys Org

Graphs are everywhere. In discrete mathematics, they are structures that show the connections between points, much like a public transportation network. Mathematicians have long sought to develop algorithms that can compare any two graphs.This article […]
