Fields medallist Timothy Gowers says the celebrated AI maths results arrived as counterexamples, not proofs. One is not even ...

Rising costs have put many restaurant operators in an impossible position. They can cut expenses or raise prices. And with consumers facing their own financial problems, raising prices may simply ...

Quantum entanglement is key to solving a 250-year-old mathematical puzzle – and the discovery could ultimately help build quantum computers that are more resilient to errors. In the 1700s, according ...

A research version of Claude boosted the proven share of Riemann zeta function zeros on the critical line from 41.6% to 67.2% in just 1.5 days.

There’s a $1-million prize for proving the Riemann hypothesis. Claude couldn’t pull that off, but it made significant progress on a related problem ...

Kurt Gödel was a genius mathematician and logician, considered by many scholars to be as influential as Aristotle. He was also buddies with fellow geniuses Albert Einstein and Oskar Morgenstern, the ...

In May 2026, OpenAI released a new math result that sent shock waves throughout the world of mathematical research. A major unsolved problem called the "unit distance conjecture" had just been ...

PHILADELPHIA—Math’s most prestigious prizes were announced today at the International Congress of Mathematicians. Following a lively brass-band performance by the West Philadelphia Orchestra in a ...

A young mathematician teamed up with a new AI model to tackle one of the hardest open problems in mathematics, and the result is causing a stir among mathematicians and AI researchers on X. Levent ...

An Anthropic AI model, Claude Fable 5, helped disprove the 87-year-old Jacobian conjecture, a famous open problem in mathematics dating to 1939. The model produced a concrete counterexample that ...
