A new benchmark pitting AI against previously unseen maths problems shows systems still fall short of top human expertise.

In a new open-access study that I published with my late colleague Kostya Trachenko from Queen Mary University of London, I propose a surprisingly simple nonlinear mathematical equation that unifies ...

In mid-May, OpenAI announced that an internal AI model had disproved the Erdős unit distance conjecture, a famous problem in discrete geometry that had stumped human mathematicians for the last 80 ...

Mathematician Will Sawin discusses his experience reviewing and refining a mathematical proof devised by OpenAI's internal ...

The 2026 FIFA World Cup is one of the most watched events of the international sports calendar, and fans from across the ...

The closest the field has come to solving the planar unit distance problem, first proposed in the 1940s, was in 1984. Now, OpenAI claims an internal model has cracked the puzzle.

Mathematical models have become an integral part of cancer biology. They are useful tools for deriving a mechanistic understanding of dynamic processes in cancer. The somatic evolutionary process, ...

A mathematical model has now cracked the exact degree to which one should be ambitious and unlike conventional wisdom, it ...

Just days before the start of the FIFA World Cup, one of the most recognized mathematical models used to forecast ...
