Los distintos tamaños del infinito
Desde que la humanidad ha mirado las estrellas, el concepto de infinito ha penetrado con fuerza en nuestras mentes. Lo que está más allá de nuestra imaginación, aquello que es inalcanzable e inabarcable… Todo ello, y mucho más, es en realidad el infinito.

Una forma alternativa de multiplicar matrices
Un producto de matrices, diferente al que estudiamos en el colegio, resulta crucial en diversas áreas de las matemáticas y en la solución de algunas conjeturas

Why Mathematicians Re-Prove What They Already Know
It’s been known for thousands of years that the primes go on forever, but new proofs give fresh insights into how theorems depend on one another.

A New Kind of Symmetry Shakes Up Physics
So-called “higher symmetries” are illuminating everything from particle decays to the behavior of complex quantum systems.

Mathematicians Find Hidden Structure in a Common Type of Space
In 50 years of searching, mathematicians found only one example of a “subspace design” that fit their criteria. A new proof reveals that there are infinitely more out there.

2 High School Students Prove Pythagorean Theorem. Here’s What That Means
t an American Mathematical Society meeting, high school students presented a proof of the Pythagorean theorem that used trigonometry—an approach that some once considered impossible

¿Hay alguna posibilidad de pedir 11 nuggets de pollo a pesar de que las cajas son de 4, 6 y 9?
Este es el denominado problema de Frobenius para semigrupos numéricos, y lleva acompañando a la humanidad desde la creación de la primera moneda

New maths formula answers long-standing party problem
How many invitees guarantee at least a certain number all know each other? Formula is first major improvement since 1935.

Surprise Computer Science Proof Stuns Mathematicians
For decades, mathematicians have been inching forward on a problem about which sets contain evenly spaced patterns of three numbers. Last month, two computer scientists blew past all of those results.

New Proof Distinguishes Mysterious and Powerful ‘Modular Forms’
Using “refreshingly old” tools, mathematicians resolved a 50-year-old conjecture about how to categorize important functions called modular forms, with consequences for number theory and theoretical physics.
