A system developed by Google’s DeepMind has set a new record for AI performance on geometry problems. DeepMind’s AlphaGeometry managed to solve 25 of the 30 geometry problems drawn from the ...

Psychologist Véronique Izard discusses a study that suggests Amazonian villagers with no math schooling are just as equipped to solve basic geometry problems as math-trained adults, and cognitive ...

The original version of this story appeared in Quanta Magazine. In 1917, the Japanese mathematician Sōichi Kakeya posed what at first seemed like nothing more than a fun exercise in geometry. Lay an ...

A geometry problem over a century old has just found its definitive answer. Mathematicians have confirmed that the solution proposed by Henry Dudeney in 1907 was indeed the most efficient possible.

Combinatorial geometry and finite fields constitute a vibrant area of research that bridges classical geometric intuition with discrete algebraic structures. This interdisciplinary field examines the ...
