University of New South Wales Honorary Professor Norman Wildberger has unveiled a potentially game-changing mathematical theory.

Using a notion called integer partitions, mathematicians have discovered a new way to detect prime numbers while also ...

In some real-world settings, taxicab geometry is more convenient, and more relevant, than Euclidean geometry. Engineers use ...

Irrational numbers, he says, rely on an imprecise concept of infinity and lead to logical problems in mathematics. Prof. Wildberger’s rejection of radicals inspired his best-known contributions ...

Research shows that students who have a strong understanding of number sense, which includes understanding the relationships ...

They found that declarative memory is correlated with math skills in second through fourth grade and is also predictive of ...

Then, in the early 1960s, Brother Alfred Brousseau, who teaches math at St. Mary’s College near San Francisco, became interested in the numbers and their applications. “We got a group of ...
