There were laws. For example, you take measurements of a spring, draw a graph and derive Hooke’s law. But why is Hooke’s law true? You haven’t proved it, you’ve just demonstrated it.

By exploring positive geometry, mathematicians are revealing hidden shapes that may unify particle physics and cosmology, offering new ways to understand both collisions in accelerators and the ...

How can the tiniest particles and the vast structure of the universe be explained using the same kind of mathematics? This puzzle is the focus of recent research by mathematicians Claudia Fevola ...
