Humpty Dumpty had all the king's horses and all the king's men, but it wasn't enough to put him back together again. This ...

Here’s a good, clear post by Mark Chu-Carroll, a software engineer at Google, on graph theory. It describes how Euler used it to solve a conundrum involving bridges in Königsberg. In a previous post, ...

For the second time in a week, a long-standing conjecture has been disproved by artificial intelligence, highlighting the advanced mathematical capabilities of ChatGPT and its ilk ...

In math, as in life, small choices can have big consequences. This is especially true in graph theory, a field that studies networks of objects and the connections between them. Here’s a little puzzle ...

An innovative approach to solving a stubborn, but elementary, question in graph theory — the mathematical study of networks of nodes and their connections — may signal the first major theoretical ...

Jacob Holm was flipping through proofs from an October 2019 research paper he and colleague Eva Rotenberg—an associate professor in the department of applied mathematics and computer science at the ...

In May 2026, OpenAI released a new math result that sent shock waves throughout the world of mathematical research. A major unsolved problem called the “unit distance conjecture” had just been ...
