It’s a breakthrough in the field of random walks.

In this video, we solve a challenging geometry problem using pure logic, geometric reasoning, and smart observations—no trigonometric formulas required. This approach helps you build deeper ...

A graphic artist is testing everyone’s knowledge of the mathematical order of operations with a string of numbers and missing arithmetic symbols. Gergely Dudás, of Budapest, Hungary, shared the new ...

A graphic artist is testing everyone’s knowledge of algebra and spot-the-difference skills with a pictograph math problem that assigns numbers to different fruits. Gergely Dudás, of Hungary Budapest, ...

Every few months, a math problem goes viral on social media. Disappointingly often, it lacks mathematical meat. It seems over half of them boil down to the order of operations. Some tweet will get ...

Alan Veliz-Cuba has received funding from the Simons Foundation and the American Mathematical Society for some of his research. You can probably think of a time when you’ve used math to solve an ...

Ramsey problems, such as r(4,5) are simple to state, but as shown in this graph, the possible solutions are nearly endless, making them very difficult to solve. We’ve all been there: staring at a math ...
