What is the famous Sunflower Conjecture, ... The story of this math problem—like so many others—starts with a Hungarian mathematician named Paul Erdős, ... The definition is flexible, ...

The abc conjecture, which Conrad has called “one of the outstanding conjectures in number theory,” starts with one of the simplest equations imaginable: a + b = c. The three numbers a, b and c ...

The artificial intelligence (AI) program DeepMind has gotten closer to proving a math conjecture that's bedeviled mathematicians for decades and revealed another new conjecture that may unravel ...

Dr. Ksenia Fedosova, a researcher at the Mathematics Münster Cluster of Excellence at the University of Münster has, along ...

Math’s “Rosetta Stone:” Yale professor proves decades-old mathematical conjecture. Yale professor Sam Raskin led a team to prove the geometric Langlands conjecture, solving a major part of one of math ...

But the fact that the conjecture is true was no surprise at all. Mathematicians have a reputation of being no-bullshit hard cases who don’t believe a thing until it’s locked down and proved.

Ruzsa published Marton’s conjecture in 1999, giving her full credit. “She came to that conjecture independently of me and Freiman, and probably before us,” he said. “That’s why, when I talked to her, ...

A Rochester Institute of Technology doctoral student was part of a team of researchers that settled a 90-year-old math problem called Keller’s conjecture. David Narváez, who studies computing ...

A team of mathematicians has solved a math problem first posed more than 40 years ago. It took three mathematicians almost 15 years to solve the famous Rota’s Conjecture – a theory first posed ...
