Mathematician Grigori Perelman solved the Poincaré conjecture, and then rejected the $1 million prize that came with it.

Now affiliated with Hunan University, the award-winning professor solved a major part of Furstenberg’s conjecture dating to ...

For over a decade, mathematicians have failed to agree whether a 500-page proof is actually correct. Now, translating the ...

The Collatz Conjecture is a deceptively simple math problem. It has only two rules. First, pick any number. If it's even, divide it by two. If it's odd, multiply it by three and add one. This will ...

DeepMind’s AlphaEvolve helps solve a math puzzle with Terence Tao, showing how AI can now invent new ideas—and prove old ones ...

A pair of mathematicians has solved the first chunk of one of the most famous conjectures about the additive properties of whole numbers. Proposed more than 60 years ago by the legendary Hungarian ...

Conjecture (Berge and Fulkerson): Every 2-connected cubic graph has a collection of six perfect matchings that together cover every edge exactly twice. This conjecture is attributed to Berge in [2].

A new approach has chipped away at a famously unsolved math problem. The Erdos-Turan conjecture in additive combinatorics is one of the longest lasting unsolved problems. The two mathematicians used ...

Caroline Klivans, senior lecturer in applied mathematics and computer science, achieved every student’s dream and proved her former advisor wrong. The Partitionability Conjecture was postulated by ...
