Reproducing kernel Hilbert space method is utilized in this paper as an efficient approach to solve singular fourth order ...

Think about placing dots on a flat surface. You want as many pairs as possible to be separated by the same distance. For any amount of dots, what is the greatest possible number of pairs that can be ...

OpenAI's AI model solved the unit distance problem posed by Paul Erdos in 1946 The AI found a counterexample disproving Erdos's conjecture on unit-distance pairs The solution shows unit-distance pairs ...

Artificial intelligence can now solve open research-level mathematics problems — not just competition questions — and the May 2026 issue of Science News documents the moment the field registered that ...

Company says work on Paul Erdős planar unit distance problem shows advance in AI reasoning OpenAI has claimed a further advance in AI reasoning after its technology successfully tackled an 80-year-old ...

This is an updated version of a story first published on May 5, 2024. For many high school students returning to class, it ...

“Subtraction!” most of the 3rd graders responded in chorus when asked what operation they needed to use to solve a problem. I noted that 100% of students were engaged and I gave the teacher an ...

Axiom Math is giving away a powerful new AI tool. But it remains to be seen if it speeds up research as much as the company hopes. Axiom Math, a startup based in Palo Alto, California, has released a ...

Let's keep things simple – this is basic math. Nothing scary. Just everyday calculations, a bit of geometry, some number patterns, and the kind of stuff you definitely learned in school at some point.

Five years ago, mathematicians Dawei Chen and Quentin Gendron were trying to untangle a difficult area of algebraic geometry involving differentials, elements of calculus used to measure distance ...

Over the weekend, Neel Somani, who is a software engineer, former quant researcher, and a startup founder, was testing the math skills of OpenAI’s new model when he made an unexpected discovery. After ...
