Schools are less likely to offer Latino and Black students early algebra classes, effectively shutting these students off from advanced courses and higher-paying jobs, according to research released ...

Black and Latino students are much less likely to have early access to Algebra 1 than their white and Asian peers—even when they’re in the same schools, and have similarly high math scores, according ...

Conformal Medical has raised $32 million to support the development of its heart implant designed to reduce the lifetime risk of stroke among people with atrial fibrillation. The company said the ...

Can you imagine the imprint a four-dimensional hexagon might leave as it passes through your three-dimensional kitchen table? Probably not, but some people can. One such person was mathematician ...

In a new Nature Physics study, researchers have provided evidence of universal conformal invariance in living biological cells. They show that a universal feature in the collective behavior emerges in ...

Conformal geometry examines properties of shapes that remain invariant under angle-preserving transformations, focusing on the study of conformal metrics and their associated curvature invariants. In ...

Conformal geometry studies properties of manifolds invariant under angle-preserving transformations. In Riemannian geometry, a conformal rescaling multiplies the metric by a smooth, strictly positive ...

In the fall of 2022, a Princeton University graduate student named Carolina Figueiredo stumbled onto a massive coincidence. She calculated that collisions involving three different types of subatomic ...

A tug of war in San Francisco over whether to teach algebra in eighth or ninth grade gets at wider national questions about serving all students fairly. By Soumya Karlamangla How to make algebra ...

The cosmos may have something in common with a doughnut. In addition to their fried, sugary goodness, doughnuts are known for their shape, or in mathematical terms, their topology. In a universe with ...

Its performance matches the smartest high school mathematicians and is much stronger than the previous state-of-the-art system. Google DeepMind has created an AI system that can solve complex geometry ...
