Mathematics, as opposed to simple counting, is the study of patterns and relationships using logical reasoning and abstract concepts. The ancient Sumerians developed the concepts of arithmetic ...

Several fields of mathematics have developed in total isolation, using their own 'undecipherable' coded languages. Mathematicians now present 'big algebras,' a two-way mathematical 'dictionary ...

Graduate Programs for Mathematics. The mathematics department’s graduate programs — including the Doctorate and Master of Science in Mathematics — are focused on developing the next generation of ...

Did abstract mathematics, such as Pythagoras’s theorem, exist before the big bang? (continued) Richard Swifte Darmstadt, Germany. I would lump mathematics in a similar category to language, art ...

A new study achieves unprecedented accuracy in modelling extreme cosmic events like black hole and neutron star collisions by calculating the fifth post-Minkowskian (5PM) order, crucial for ...

Math is everywhere, offering broad career choices. The mathematical and scientific computation major is the ideal choice for students who are interested in the interplay between mathematical theory ...

Did abstract mathematics, such as Pythagoras’s theorem, exist before the big bang? Simon McLeish Lechlade, Gloucestershire, UK. The notion of the existence of mathematical ideas is a complex one.
