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 ...

Commutative algebra and graph theory are two vibrant areas of mathematics that have grown increasingly interrelated. At this interface, algebraic methods are applied to study combinatorial structures, ...

In math, as in life, small choices can have big consequences. This is especially true in graph theory, a field that studies networks of objects and the connections between them. Here’s a little puzzle ...

Researchers thought that they were five years away from solving a math riddle from the 1980's. In reality, and without knowing, they had nearly cracked the problem and had just given away much of the ...

In just three pages, a Russian mathematician has presented a better way to color certain types of networks than many experts thought possible. A paper posted online last month has disproved a ...
