Mathematical induction is a method of mathematical proof typically used to establish that a given statement is true of all natural numbers. The method can be extended to prove statements about ...

In 2024, Google DeepMind announced that they had developed an AI system that scored a silver medal in the International Mathematical Olympiad, a prestigious proof-based exam for high school students.

THE history of the physical sciences offers many examples of theories which have been ‘proved’ mathematically and been set as foundation-stones in the edifice of science, only long after and ...

In the formula for Proof of Work-based blockchains, including Bitcoin, ... There is mathematical proof in the pudding. Kyoto University. Journal IEEE Access DOI 10.1109/ACCESS.2024.3410025.

In much simpler proofs, we use induction to show that the next counting number will always fall into the logic we already established. If it’s true for 8, it’s true for 9, 10, 11, and so forth ...

Ne’Kiya Jackson and Calcea Johnson have published a paper on a new way to prove the 2000-year-old Pythagorean theorem. Their work began in a high school math contest.

By making key substitutions and clarifications to the original problem, Wang and Zahl opened it to a type of proof called induction on scale. Classic proof by induction involves showing a ...

Two US high schoolers believe they have cracked a mathematical mystery left unproven for centuries. Calcea Johnson and Ne'Kiya Jackson looked at the Pythagorean theorem, foundational to ...
