This year’s Abel prize, an annual mathematics lifetime-achievement award, bestowed by the Norwegian Academy of Science and Letters and modeled on the Nobel Prize, has been given to Gerd Faltings, a ...

I know what to do, but I can’t get going. What is happening in my brain? A good cry and short break later, I have my answer: ...

German mathematician Gerd Faltings has won the 2026 Abel Prize, considered the Nobel Prize of mathematics, for proving the long-standing Mordell conjecture and laying foundations for major areas of ...

As a high school math teacher, I have spent my career sharing my love of equations. There is beauty in the simplicity of knowing that the inputs will always equal the outputs, no exceptions. Our ...

Getting outside regularly helps young children learn how to problem-solve and develop other important skills that support their success in school.

Peter Badge. Mathematics often feels like a collection of isolated islands. Each one operates with its own rules, and building bridges between them is notoriously difficult. Today, the Norwegian ...

Gerd Faltings shocked mathematicians around the world for his 1983 proof of the Mordell conjecture, which brought together ...

Gerd Faltings proved a conjecture that had been unsolved for six decades, using connections between numbers and geometry.

A new quantum system called giant superatoms could protect quantum information and enable entanglement between multiple qubits. The concept merges giant atoms and superatoms to improve stability and ...

After years of creating highly specialized software, researchers used supercomputer clusters to finally solve the "100,000-body problem.

The first act of the current AI boom was defined by prediction. LLMs were trained to predict the next word in a sentence, acting as sophisticated statistical mirrors of the internet. But for the ...

Student mathematicians spent Saturday crunching numbers and solving equations at Maria Carrillo High School’s library as part of an academic tournament celebrating Pi Day, March 14.
