Three mathematicians have laid out proof that solves a long-standing problem in mathematics. Even the mathematician—an Abel prize winner—that first posed the problem didn't believe it would ever be ...

OpenAI claims its new reasoning model has produced an original mathematical proof disproving a famous unsolved conjecture in geometry, which was first posed by Paul Erdős in 1946. If this sounds ...

Stochastic geometry combines probabilistic methods with classical geometry to investigate random spatial structures. At its core lies the study of random polytopes—convex hulls formed by points drawn ...

The era of size inclusivity is seemingly over. Our critic traces the shift and hopes designers might learn from it. By Vanessa Friedman I know models have always been skinny, but it seems to me they ...

The 2024 Nobel Prize in Chemistry was recently granted to David Baker, Demis Hassabis and John M. Jumper, renowned for their pioneering works in protein design. In addition, Nature has recently ...

The probability that the National Bureau of Economic Research will someday determine a national recession began in the U.S. between December 2025 and December 2026 has fallen below twenty percent.

The Tesla Model Y’s midcycle refresh brought significant enough changes to earn it a spot in our 2026 SUV of the Year competition. The full list of updates is extensive, but the highlights matter.

The breakthrough was achieved using a simple mathematical model that balances two competing forces—how strongly the particles repel each other, and how tightly they are confined. By tuning these ...
