A team of German physicists has built a fully working version of quantum mechanics that uses only real numbers. Complex ...

Differential equations are fundamental tools in physics: they are used to describe phenomena ranging from fluid dynamics to general relativity. But when these equations become stiff (i.e. they involve ...

Trigonometric identities are powerful tools for simplifying complex equations in math and science. Three core groups—reciprocal, quotient, and Pythagorean—form the foundation. Effective strategies ...

(Nanowerk Spotlight) As our digital devices handle increasingly complex computations, scientists have looked to physics for inspiration on new computing paradigms. Rather than shuttling electrical ...

If you know the atoms that compose a particular molecule or solid material, the interactions between those atoms can be determined computationally, by solving quantum mechanical equations—at least, if ...

The team has improved the capabilities of physics-informed neural networks (PINNs), a type of artificial intelligence that incorporates physical laws into the learning process. Researchers from the ...

We’ve all got different skill sets, and some of ours simply don’t include math. Google’s latest Search update includes a helpful new tool for folks in that category. Next time a complex equation ...

Meromorphic function theory occupies a central position in the analysis of complex differential equations, uniting classical value‐distribution methods with modern studies of integrability and dynamic ...
