Now, more than 122 years after it was first proposed, Kamata and two other mathematicians have finally proved that a solution ...

A geometry problem over a century old has just found its definitive answer. Mathematicians have confirmed that the solution ...

I don’t know the equation nor the name (my Greek being insufficient) of the curve required. However, I can offer a relatively simple way to draw such a shape using a straight edge and compass.

Mathematicians struggled to find the fewest number of pieces needed to cut an equilateral triangle and rearrange it into a ...

TOKYO -- A Japan-U.S. research team on March 10 offered a mathematical proof that "Dudeney's dissection," a challenge to cut an equilateral triangle and use the parts to create a square with the ...

Masaki Kashiwara, this year’s Abel Prize winner, co-founded a new field of mathematics called algebraic analysis ...

When a specific voltage was applied via the STM probe to the distorted triangular structure, it was observed to transform closer to an equilateral triangle.

Abstract Proton tunneling through a hydrogen bond is a significant quantum phenomenon in proton-mediated processes. Hydrogen bonds strengthen each ...

In deciding whether to award a massive Australian naval contract to Japan or to Germany, the Australian government must ...

Mathematicians have proven that Henry Dudeney’s 1907 four-piece dissection of an equilateral triangle into a square is optimal. Using matching diagrams, researchers from JAIST and MIT showed that no ...

Constantinos G. Vayenas explores the roles of neutrinos, quantum mechanics, and special relativity in baryogenesis ...

This file provides functions and modules that construct shapes from a list of cross sections. In the case of skin() you specify each cross sectional shape yourself, and the number of points can vary.
