Oxford mathematician, playwright and musician, Marcus Du Sautoy, reveals how creative people can harness the profound and ...

The mathematician is out to show the close link between maths and the arts. This idea isn't new, and while Blueprints is ...

Mathematicians love the certainty of proofs. This is how they verify that their intuition matches observable truth.

Over the years, mathematicians found that the twisted shapes exist in dimensions 2, 6, 14, 30 and 62. They also showed that ...

Here’s how it works. Researchers have discovered a "shape-recovering liquid" that appears to defy the laws of thermodynamics. The liquid, which is made up of oil, water and magnetized particles ...

The biggest questions in topology [the branch of math concerned with the properties of shapes that stay constant even when the forms are stretched and warped] concern classifications of closed ...
