Nearly 200 years ago, the physicists Claude-Louis Navier and George Gabriel Stokes put the finishing touches on a set of equations that describe how fluids swirl. And for nearly 200 years, the ...

Ramanujan’s elegant formulas for calculating pi, developed more than a century ago, have unexpectedly resurfaced at the heart of modern physics. Researchers at IISc discovered that the same ...

A mathematician at Carnegie Mellon University has developed an easier way to solve quadratic equations. The mathematician hopes this method will help students avoid memorizing obtuse formulas. His ...

Unless you do it in your day to day job, math can be very easy to avoid once you graduate from school. Suddenly those long, complicated equations that your math teacher swore would be trivial are so ...

My childhood fascination with the night sky led me to study astronomy and physics at university. By my second year, I was operating the telescope atop the physics building, tracking celestial objects ...

Masaki Kashiwara has won the 2025 Abel prize, sometimes called the Nobel prize of mathematics, for his work on algebraic analysis. Kashiwara, a professor at Kyoto University, Japan, received the award ...

Index laws and the laws of logarithms are essential tools for simplifying and manipulating exponential and logarithmic functions. There is an inverse relationship between exponential and logarithmic ...

Exponential and logarithmic functions are mathematical concepts with wide-ranging applications. Exponential functions are commonly used to model phenomena such as population growth, the spread of ...
