A rushed new math curriculum doesn’t add up. The right answer is more time

October 27, 2025 Phys Org

If the recent news of a new mathematics and statistics curriculum for years 0–10 felt familiar, that’s because it was.This article was originally published on this website.

How the Mayans were able to accurately predict solar eclipses for centuries

October 26, 2025 Phys Org

The Maya Civilization, from Central America, was one of the most advanced ancient civilizations, known for its significant achievements in astronomy and mathematics. This includes accurate calendars and detailed celestial records, but scientists don’t fully […]

Human ingenuity outpaces AI in finding new ‘kissing number’ bounds

October 22, 2025 Phys Org

How many coins can touch one coin, or how many basketballs can “kiss” one basketball at the same time? This seemingly playful question lies at the heart of the famous kissing number problem, a mathematical […]

Using math to ensure AI systems can operate safely

October 21, 2025 Phys Org

As artificial intelligence (AI) takes on increasingly critical roles—from managing power grids to piloting autonomous vehicles—making sure these systems are safe has never been more important. But how can we be certain that the AI […]

Math

Algorithmic outreach can lead to information inequality

October 21, 2025 Phys Org

Algorithms that identify influential people in social networks can help maximize the reach of messages, but a modeling study published in PNAS Nexus shows that those same algorithms can disseminate information inequitably, potentially exacerbating existing […]

A mathematical ‘Rosetta Stone’ translates and predicts the larger effects of molecular systems

October 20, 2025 Phys Org

Penn Engineers have developed a mathematical “Rosetta Stone” that translates atomic and molecular movements into predictions of larger-scale effects, like proteins unfolding, crystals forming and ice melting, without the need for costly, time-consuming simulations or […]

Math

Time-delay snapshots enable scientists to identify dynamics in chaotic systems

October 17, 2025 Phys Org

Many of the world’s most important systems, such as the atmosphere, turbulent fluids, and even the motion of planets, behave unpredictably due to chaos and noise. Scientists often study these systems through their “invariant” measures, […]

When mathematics meets aesthetics: Tessellations as a precise tool for solving complex problems

October 10, 2025 Phys Org

In a recent study, mathematicians from Freie Universität Berlin have demonstrated that planar tiling, or tessellation, is much more than a way to create a pretty pattern. Consisting of a surface covered by one or […]

‘Battleship’-style math can improve sustainable design, groundwater management, nuclear waste storage and more

October 10, 2025 Phys Org

In an approach reminiscent of the classic board game “Battleship,” Stanford researchers have discovered a way to characterize the microscopic structure of everyday materials such as sand and concrete with high precision.This article was originally […]
