Using advanced mathematical tools inspired by physics, the team has derived a general equation for any number of tangent ...

Both algebraic and arithmetic geometry are concerned with the study of solution sets of systems of polynomial equations. Algebraic geometry deals primarily with solutions lying in an algebraically ...

A sector is a fraction of a circle. The angle in the sector is a fraction of 360°. This sector has an angle of θ°. The fraction of the circle is \(\frac{θ}{360}\) The area of the sector will ...

To counter this, Virginia Tech mathematicians are leveraging algebraic geometry to target the inefficiencies of data centers. "We as individuals generate tons of data all the time, not to mention ...

There’s been some good .STL manipulation tips in this week. The first one is called stl_tools, and it’s a Python library to convert images or text to 3D-printable STL files. The examples ...

Chinese mathematician Wang Hong has solved an “infamous” geometry problem called the Kakeya conjecture within three dimensions. It is considered a breakthrough that could have implications for ...

"For each of the steps in this approach, you're solving a simpler problem using simpler tools from geometry processing, but at the end, you get a solution to the more challenging second-order ...

Until now, creating quantum superpositions of ultra-cold atoms has been a real headache, too slow to be realistic in the laboratory.
