This is an updated version of a story first published on May 5, 2024. For many high school students returning to class, it may seem like geometry and trigonometry were created by the Greeks as a form ...

A high school teacher didn't expect a solution when she set a 2,000-year-old Pythagorean Theorem problem in front of her students. Then Calcea Johnson and Ne'Kiya Jackson stepped up to the challenge.

2025 marked a historic year in mathematics. Researchers solved a major case of Hilbert’s ambitious sixth problem, proved a sweeping new theorem about hyperbolic surfaces, and settled the longstanding ...

Convolution is a remarkable property of the Fourier transform, often cited in the literature as the “faltung theorem”. Convolution is a remarkable property of the Fourier transform, often cited in the ...

A windowed sinc function can implement a low-pass filter, and a two-dimensional convolutional filter can blur or sharpen images. In part 3 of this series, we introduced a low-pass filter based on the ...

Complex organizational problems and chaos are silent killers of productivity and innovation. In today’s fractured work environment, they are more prevalent than ever. Political transitions, ...

In a new peer-reviewed study, Ne'Kiya Jackson and Calcea Johnson outlined 10 ways to solve the Pythagorean theorem using trigonometry, including a proof they discovered in high school. When you ...

Automating mathematical reasoning has long been a goal in artificial intelligence, with formal frameworks like Lean 4, Isabelle, and Coq playing a significant role. These frameworks enable users to ...
