"A right triangle is just a triangle with a 90° angle, right?" "I know the name, but I get stuck when asked about its properties." "I'm not quite sure how it connects to isosceles triangles or ...

Think about placing dots on a flat surface. You want as many pairs as possible to be separated by the same distance. For any amount of dots, what is the greatest possible number of pairs that can be ...

In mid-May, OpenAI announced that an internal AI model had disproved the Erdős unit distance conjecture, a famous problem in discrete geometry that had stumped human mathematicians for the last 80 ...

A new review challenges the long-held idea that geometry is a uniquely human skill rooted in an innate “math module.” Credit: Shutterstock Geometry may come from navigation skills shared with animals, ...

OpenAI claims its new reasoning model has produced an original mathematical proof disproving a famous unsolved conjecture in geometry, which was first posed by Paul Erdős in 1946. If this sounds ...

The work of numerous mathematicians culminated in the discovery of hyperbolic geometry; today, thanks to virtual reality, it is possible to glimpse it beyond its formulas A participant in the ARGÓ ...

Five years ago, mathematicians Dawei Chen and Quentin Gendron were trying to untangle a difficult area of algebraic geometry involving differentials, elements of calculus used to measure distance ...

The original version of this story appeared in Quanta Magazine. Standing in the middle of a field, we can easily forget that we live on a round planet. We’re so small in comparison to the Earth that ...
