Little progress had been made in solving Ramsey problems since the 1930s. Now, researchers have found the answer to r(4,t), a longstanding Ramsey problem that has perplexed the math world for decades.

Teachers can help ease the anxiety that many students feel with these strategies for creating joyful learning experiences.

In 1946, the mathematician Paul Erdős posed the unit distance problem—and suggested a winning strategy. An A.I. model has now ...

In mid-May, OpenAI announced that an internal AI model had disproved the Erdős unit distance conjecture, a famous problem in ...

An experiment with 2,520 participants backs Richard Feynman’s answer to every diner’s dilemma: do I want to try something new? In a scene that could have easily featured in an episode of the US ...

The math world is losing its mind over the new solution to an Erdős problem. This is what AI found, how we missed it—and why ...

The closest the field has come to solving the planar unit distance problem, first proposed in the 1940s, was in 1984. Now, OpenAI claims an internal model has cracked the puzzle.

OpenAI claims its model solved a famous geometry problem that has eluded the world’s greatest mathematicians for 80 years — a breakthrough hailed as evidence of the bot’s creativity and “intuition.” ...

A 23‑year‑old amateur maths enthusiast, Liam Price, used ChatGPT‑5.4 Pro to solve one of Erdős’s long‑standing “primitive set” problems, which had remained unresolved since the early 1960s.
