In this episode of eSpeaks, Jennifer Margles, Director of Product Management at BMC Software, discusses the transition from traditional job scheduling to the era of the autonomous enterprise. eSpeaks’ ...

Five years ago, mathematicians Dawei Chen and Quentin Gendron were trying to untangle a difficult area of algebraic geometry involving differentials, elements of calculus used to measure distance ...

The Collatz Conjecture is defined by a rule simple enough for a child to follow. No matter what number you start with, the process always appears to end the same way — and it has never been observed ...

The Collatz Conjecture begins with a simple sequence yet no proof has ever been found to solve it. UK airline plunged into administration after 28 years – all flights cancelled Iran’s midget ...

When Hannah Cairo was 17 years old, she disproved the Mizohata-Takeuchi conjecture, a long-standing guess in the field of harmonic analysis about how waves behave on curved surfaces. The conjecture ...

ABSTRACT: A new Base-X Conjecture was introduced in this paper, and Collatz Conjecture is just one case of Base-X Conjecture - Base-3 (Ternary). Based on Base-X number system property and Collatz ...

Mathematicians have finally solved a geometry problem that has puzzled the field for decades. By wiggling a needle around while spinning it, you can minimize the amount of space it moves through, ...

The original version of this story appeared in Quanta Magazine. Sometime in the fall of 2021, Andrew Krapivin, an undergraduate at Rutgers University, encountered a paper that would change his life.
