A Rochester Institute of Technology researcher developed a mathematical method that shows climate change likely caused the rise and fall of an ancient civilization. In an article recently featured in ...

For democratic elections to be fair, voting districts must have similar sizes. When populations shift, districts need to be redistributed -- a complex and, in many countries, controversial task when ...

THE usefulness of mathematical reasoning applied to political economy, the value of the methods originated by Cournot and developed by Jevons, may be said to be still sub judice. The consideration of ...

A mathematical method borrowed from topology can reveal structural properties of visual art that correspond to how people perceive and respond to them, according to a new study published in PLOS ...

Juan M. Gerardo is a Doctoral Candidate in Curriculum and Instruction at the University of Illinois at Urbana-Champaign. His interest is working with pre-service mathematics teachers and supporting ...

Bespoke manipulation of light by Steve Johnson's group could find uses in cellphone lenses, smart-car sensors, optical fibers. Mathematicians at MIT, Cambridge, Ma, have developed a new computational ...

FILIPINO mathematicians have developed a new analytical tool that could help scientists better compare and refine mathematical models used to study complex biological systems.

How can mathematics learning in primary school be facilitated? Scientists have developed an intervention to promote the learning of math in school. Named ACE-ArithmEcole, the program is designed to ...
