The field of Reverse Mathematics explores the minimal axiomatic frameworks necessary to prove classical theorems, seeking to elucidate the logical foundations of mathematics. In parallel, ...
Set theory remains the fulcrum of modern mathematical foundations, providing the language and axiomatic structure upon which much of mathematics is built. Predominantly formulated through the ...
Brain-imaging techniques have made it possible to explore the neural foundations of logical and mathematical cognition. These techniques are revealing more than simply where these high-order processes ...
To determine the nature of infinity, mathematicians face a choice between two new logical axioms. What they decide could help shape the future of mathematical truth. In the course of exploring their ...
A survey of contemporary topics in mathematics such as: voting systems and power, apportionment, fair division of divisible and indivisible assets, efficient distribution, scheduling and routing, ...
Mathematics might be more of an environmental science than we realize. Even though it is a search for eternal truths, many mathematical concepts trace their origins to everyday experience. Astrology ...

The logic gap: Why even the top AI models struggle with basic math
The mysteries of infinity could lead us to a fantastic structure above and beyond mathematics as we know it WHEN David Hilbert left the podium at the Sorbonne in Paris, France, on 8 August 1900, few ...
The claim is often made that mathematical results are immutable. Once proven, they remain forever valid. But things are not so simple. There are problems at the very core of mathematics that cast a ...
