We experience phase transitions every day, but they are some of the most dramatic events natur presents us with. Here's a quick introduction.
We explore the maths that helps explain this well-known phenomenon, which says that any two people around the world are likely to be connected through a surprisingly short chain of acquaintance links.
Random walks are great for modelling anything that moves, from particles to people. They're also fun, versatile and beautiful!
Yolanne Lee, A PhD student for the Maths4DL research project, tells us about what she thinks AI will be able to do in the near future, what it has to do with cats and dogs, and how music provided her first experience of science.
Julian Sahasrabudhe wins a Whitehead Prize for combining different areas of maths using the power of combinatorics.
