Diophantus, who likely inherited foundational ideas from Thymaridas of Paros, laid fundamental work for algebra by exploring solutions to linear equations that later influenced modern mathematics.
Earlier this year, a trio of mathematicians decided to make lemons into lemonade — and ended up making major headway on a problem that mathematicians have been thinking about for centuries.
Number theory studies the integers and mathematical objects constructed from them. Carl Friedrich Gauss once said, "Mathematics is the queen of the sciences, and number theory is the queen of ...
ABSTRACT: Bell’s theorem determines the number of representations of a positive integer in terms of the ternary quadratic forms x2+by2+cz2 with b,c {1,2,4,8}. This number depends only on the number of ...
