To many in the United States, advanced forms of mathematics are a terrifying maze of numbers, symbols, graphs, and hypotheticals that render our world more complex than simple observations would ...

Professor Adam Sikora is helping advance and popularize the growing field of quantum topology, which connects topology and geometry with quantum physics through surprising cross-fertilization of ideas ...

In the computer vision field of object detection, deep learning models are trained to identify objects of interest within an image of a scene. For example, such models can be trained to detect viruses ...

Benjamin Adric Dunn, a data scientist at the Norwegian University of Science and Technology, shows me a picture of unevenly spaced dots arranged vaguely like the rocks at Stonehenge. The overall ...

In the early 1960s George Gamow wrote a popular book 1 that contained a very suggestive observation about the effectiveness of pure mathematics in physics. As a conclusion he remarked that “only ...

US mathematician Dennis Sullivan has won one of the most prestigious awards in mathematics, for his contributions to topology — the study of qualitative properties of shapes — and related fields.

Tom Lee works for the University of Technology Sydney and at times receives funding and support for his research and writing. Kate Scardifileld’s current exhibition Soft Topologies at the UTS Gallery ...

Our PhD program is small and selective and leads to a doctorate degree in mathematics. We recruit outstanding students from around the world and train them to be effective teachers and cutting-edge ...
