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 ...

Abstract: The story behind the Euclidean algorithm and its relationship to the solution of the Diophantine equation is examined in this article. The Euclidean algorithm appears in Proposition 2 in ...

Two mathematicians have used a new geometric approach in order to address a very old problem in algebra. In school, we often learn how to multiply out and factor polynomial equations like (x² – 1) or ...

A mathematician at UNSW Sydney has introduced a groundbreaking new approach to one of algebra’s oldest unsolved problems. A mathematician has developed an algebraic solution to an equation that was ...

Standard computer implementations of Dantzig's simplex method for linear programming are based upon forming the inverse of the basic matrix and updating the inverse ...

Can a brand’s cultural impact be measured? According to Carat US, yes. According to agency EVP and head of strategy Joanna Hawkes, its new measurement methodology, Cultural EQ, is a proprietary KPI ...

The library sorting problem is used across computer science for organizing far more than just books. A new solution is less than a page-width away from the theoretical ideal. Computer scientists often ...

Abstract: Two different approaches for the linear-time solution of three-dimensional magnetostatic field problems encompassing large-scale linear systems with millions of degrees of freedom are ...

The process of testing new solar cell technologies has traditionally been slow and costly, requiring multiple steps. Led by a fifth-year PhD student, a Johns Hopkins team has developed a machine ...
