Mathematical methods and special functions have long served as the backbone of modern theoretical physics and applied mathematics. These tools enable researchers to solve complex differential ...

Mathematics is one of the oldest disciplines of study. For all its antiquity, however, it is a modern, rapidly growing field. Only 70 years ago, mathematics might have been said to consist of algebra, ...

IIIF provides researchers rich metadata and media viewing options for comparison of works across cultural heritage collections. Visit the IIIF page to learn more. From the sixteenth century, computing ...

The Handbook of Mathematical Functions by Milton Abramovich and Irene Stegun is the one book I would wish to have on a desert island. Unlike a novel, it withstands infinities of rereadings. Its ...

A decade ago astrophysicists at the Laser Interferometer Gravitational-Wave Observatory (LIGO), operated by the California Institute of Technology and the Massachusetts Institute of Technology, ...

Most engineering labs have digital oscilloscopes, but many engineers don’t fully explore their features. Among the more interesting features of a digital oscilloscope is its math channel, which can ...

A rule for creating a "y" output from an "x" input. For example, the y value of the function f(x) = 15x is 30 if x is 2. THIS DEFINITION IS FOR PERSONAL USE ONLY. All other reproduction requires ...

Holidays bring celebration, rest and, for many families, long stretches of indoor time. For some, this means tabletop games ...

In a mesmerising blend of art and mathematics, a research student from University College London (UCL) has recently gained widespread attention for creating intricate images solely through ...
