A study published in Nature Physics provides new molecular-level evidence from simulations that liquid water is not a single uniform substance, but a constantly shifting mixture of two distinct ...

DURING the thirty seconds the earth shook in General Santos City, facades broke and whole structures collapsed. However, some of the older buildings, built with deep foundations, stood the shaking but ...

When a problem occurs, we often tend to think, "Let's try harder." Move faster. Be more conscious. Take more responsibility. Of course, I don't mean to say that effort is unnecessary. It is better to ...

Hungarian mathematician Paul Erdős’ ‘planar unit distance conjecture’ has stood since 1946 – but an AI disproof has made mathematicians pay attention.

We are providing an unedited version of this manuscript to give early access to its findings. Before final publication, the manuscript will undergo further editing. Please note there may be errors ...

After 80 years of fruitless struggle by human mathematicians, a major geometry conjecture has at last been solved—via a straightforward query to a chatbot. “No previous AI-generated proof has come ...

OpenAI claims its new reasoning model has produced an original mathematical proof disproving a famous unsolved conjecture in geometry, which was first posed by Paul Erdős in 1946. If this sounds ...

Modern software increasingly depends on data structures that go far beyond basic arrays and trees. Some of the most powerful systems rely on designs that rarely appear in traditional programming ...

Claims of vast man made constructions beneath Giza sound extraordinary, but they face major scientific and geological problems. From the water table to natural fissures in the limestone, the evidence ...
