A Mathematician with early access to XAI Grok 4.20, found a new Bellman function for one of the problems he had been working on with my student N. Alpay. Not an Erdős problem, but original research.

Ramsey problems, such as r(4,5) are simple to state, but as shown in this graph, the possible solutions are nearly endless, making them very difficult to solve. We’ve all been there: staring at a math ...

PEMDAS has plagued many in elementary school math classes, but how many Americans remember how to use the acronym to solve problems? A simple sixth-grade math equation went viral on X for stumping ...

Little progress had been made in solving Ramsey problems since the 1930s. Now, researchers have found the answer to r(4,t), a longstanding Ramsey problem that has perplexed the math world for decades.

“Because we do so much multi-step problem solving, and we’re doing two-step word problems, if they’re spending 10-15 minutes trying to figure out what 9x7 is, they’re doing a lot of extra work, or ...

Microsoft Math Solver is a free tool that uses AI to recognize both printed and handwritten math. It’s particularly strong with geometric proofs and interactive graphing, and it pulls learning ...

The time to fix math education in Canada is now. Our kids and our economy are counting on us. (Credit: Pexels/Postmedia files) The most recent TIMSS assessment underscores the seriousness of our ...

An apparently easy-looking math problem has left internet users scratching their heads. The elementary-grade problem looks simple enough to solve in seconds, but has tripped up the masses. The basic ...
