Over the last 25 years, the Institute for pure and applied mathematics (IPAM) at UCLA (where I am now director of special projects) has run the popular Research in Industrial Projects for Students (RIPS) program every summer, in which industry …
Mathematics at Surrey has been awarded funding by the Mathematical Innovators in the Digital Space (MInDS) flexible fund, led out of the University of Warwick and funded by UKRI. It provides funding to appoint two new Innovation Research Associates (InRAs) …
In mathematics, precision is valuable, but so is efficiency. Often, especially in everyday situations, obtaining an exact answer isn’t necessary. Instead, a good estimate suffices. This lesson focuses on estimating sums by rounding to achieve the best possible approximation without …
To quantify the immune response against a rapidly evolving virus, groups routinely measure antibody inhibition against many virus variants. Over time, the variants being studied change, and there is a need for methods that infer missing interactions and distinguish between …
We’re thrilled to announce that Mathletics has been named a 2025 EdTech Awards Cool Tool finalist! This recognition celebrates our commitment to creating experiences that truly engage students. The EdTech Awards spotlight the most impactful tools in education. Mathletics was selected …
Cats Don’t Talk We humans have perhaps 100 billion neurons in our brains. But what if we had many more? Or what if the AIs we built effectively had many more? What kinds of things might then become possible? At …
Subscribe to our ▶️ YouTube channel 🔴 for the latest videos, updates, and tips. To find out factors of larger numbers quickly, we perform divisibility test. There are certain rules to check divisibility of numbers. In divisibility rules (test) we find whether a …
I have uploaded to the arXiv my paper “Sum-difference exponents for boundedly many slopes, and rational complexity“. This is the second spinoff of my previous project with Bogdan Georgiev, Javier Gómez–Serrano, and Adam Zsolt Wagner that I recently posted about. …
Anne Skeldon visited the University of Durham on Monday this week (17 November) where she was invited to give a talk in the Applied Mathematics Seminar series. The title of her talk was “Mathematical modelling of the sleep-wake cycle: light, …
