There's been an announcement that an AI system solved one of the most famous problems in maths. Here's a quick look at the problem and why the announcement is significant.
Hot weather, cold air conditioning, and fantastic mathematics — we report on our experience at this year's International Congress of Mathematicians.
We talk to the team behind the Glasgow and Dublin bid about their plans for the 2030 International Congress of Mathematicians.
The new IMU President tells us why it's important to have an International Congress of Mathematicians and about the role of the IMU.
Segal has won a Chern Medal for his "visionary mathematical insights that have had an enduring influence in a wide range of fields."
John Pardon won a Fields Medal for work in geometry that sheds a light on the nature of our Universe.
Yu Deng won a Fields Medal for work that addresses a grand mathematical dream.
Fields Medallist Wendelin Werner loves Brownian loop soups. In the second part of this article, we learn more about why they matter so much.
Fields Medallist Wendelin Werner loves Brownian loop soups. We explore what they are, why he finds them so "natural", and how they are linked to the physics of elementary particles.
Daniel Baumann will be treading in Hawking's legendary footsteps, pursuing a central question of the field: How did the Universe begin? Find out more in this article.
Causal inference is the art of discerning cause and effect from data. Find out more in this introduction.
How do you discern cause and effect when you can't do a controlled experiment? Directed acyclic graphs (DAGs) are a fun and important tool.
