Kaleidocycles are flexible polyhedral structures composed of rigid tetrahedra connected along their edges to form rotating ...

AI is now embedded in critical digital infrastructure and that brings serious risk. Machine learning models perform well, but their opacity and ...

Mathematical logic and set theory provide the foundational language for modern mathematics, articulating precise notions of proof, computability and the hierarchy of infinities. Central themes include ...

Physicists are making new inroads into the world of post-quantum theories, uncovering what reality may look like on a level deeper and stranger than the already infamously odd quantum theory. In the ...

Daniel Glasscock, an assistant professor of mathematics and statistics in the Kennedy College of Sciences, has been interested by Ramsey theory since his master’s degree studies at Central European ...

David E. Dunning explores how mathematical notation is a social, world-building technology. It’s natural to think of math as being fundamentally abstract. Whether it’s invented or discovered, its ...

In March 2025, mathematician Daniel Litt made a bet. Despite the march of progress of artificial intelligence in many fields, he believed his subject was safe, wagering with a colleague that there was ...

Below, Tom Griffiths shares five key insights from his new book, The Laws of Thought: The Quest for a Mathematical Theory of the Mind. Griffiths is a professor of psychology and computer science at ...

Researchers at Stanford and Caltech have found some critical reasoning failures in advanced AI models. LLMs are great at recognizing patterns, but they have trouble with basic logic, social reasoning, ...

You’ve locked in on your weight loss goals, consistently cut back on calories, and made time for daily workouts. Yet after initially losing a couple of pounds, you just can’t get that number on the ...
