Tessellations aren’t just eye-catching patterns—they can be used to crack complex mathematical problems. By repeatedly reflecting shapes to tile a surface, researchers uncovered a method that links ...

Abstract. For a two–dimensional time nonlinear hyperbolic equation with a power nonlinearity, a threshold exponent depending on the space dimension is presented. Furthermore, the analysis is extended ...

Mathematics of Computation, Vol. 47, No. 176 (Oct., 1986), pp. 713-727 (15 pages) We show how the Gelfond-Baker theory and diophantine approximation techniques can be ...

Margaret Wertheim gave a talk for the Australian Mathematical Sciences Institute at their 2016 annual Summer School. We have built a world of largely straight lines – the houses we live in, the ...
