The Collatz Conjecture is a deceptively simple math problem. It has only two rules. First, pick any number. If it's even, divide it by two. If it's odd, multiply it by three and add one. This will ...
In Chasing (a) Conjecture, Khare has done more than narrate a personal triumph. He has rendered the abstract palpably human, ...
A pair of mathematicians has solved the first chunk of one of the most famous conjectures about the additive properties of whole numbers. Proposed more than 60 years ago by the legendary Hungarian ...
Mathematicians thought they were on the cusp of proving a conjecture about the ancient structures known as Apollonian circles. But a summer project would lead to its downfall. Summer Haag and Clyde ...
A new approach has chipped away at a famously unsolved math problem. The Erdos-Turan conjecture in additive combinatorics is one of the longest lasting unsolved problems. The two mathematicians used ...
