Jacob Holm was flipping through proofs from an October 2019 research paper he and colleague Eva Rotenberg—an associate professor in the department of applied mathematics and computer science at the ...

Graph matching remains a core challenge in computer vision, where establishing correspondences between features is crucial for tasks such as object recognition, 3D reconstruction and scene ...

At 21, Ashwin Sah has produced a body of work that senior mathematicians say is nearly unprecedented for a college student. The proof joined a long list of mathematical results that Sah, who turned 21 ...

For mathematicians and computer scientists, this was often a year of double takes and closer looks. Some reexamined foundational principles, while others found shockingly simple proofs, new techniques ...

The original version of this story appeared in Quanta Magazine. All of modern mathematics is built on the foundation of set theory, the study of how to organize abstract collections of objects. But in ...
