It has long been a mystery why pure math can reveal so much about the nature of the physical world. Antimatter was discovered in Paul Dirac’s equations before being detected in cosmic rays. Quarks ...

Raz, a professor at Princeton University and the Weizmann Institute of Science, and Tal, a postdoctoral fellow at Stanford University, define a specific kind of computational problem. They prove, with ...

As the hare learned from the tortoise, speed isn't everything. Theoretical computer scientists at Sandia National Laboratories and Boston University have discovered that quantum computers are ...

BUFFALO, N.Y. — Imagine zooming into matter at the quantum scale, where tiny particles can interact in more than a trillion configurations at once. If that sounds complicated, it is: Physicists often ...

It's time to run your errands, and you've got multiple stops to make. From your house, you have to hit the supermarket, the gas station, and the hardware store, all before returning home. Assuming you ...

Quantum computing and neutron star physics are converging on the same hard problem: how to describe matter when gravity and ...

Cybersecurity needs thinkers who can examine the logic underlying our systems, question assumptions and identify where ...

Modern firms face strategy problems that change with each new shift in markets, costs, or rules. Traditional data tools often ...
