Mathematical programming with vanishing constraints (MPVC) represents a challenging class of optimisation problems where certain constraints become inactive—or “vanish”—depending on specific ...

In this article, we will demonstrate how to use the graphing feature in the Windows calculator to try and make mathematics more fun. Microsoft has always strived to kick up a notch the Windows ...

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 ...

In 1950 Edward Nelson, then a student at the University of Chicago, asked the kind of deceptively simple question that can give mathematicians fits for decades. Imagine, he said, a graph — a ...

Now that pandemic restrictions are easing up, people are getting together again. But it’s been a while, so if you and your friends need some help breaking the ice, here’s a mathematical party game you ...
