Aditya Birla World Academy's 'Infinity' marks its 12th year as a dynamic mathematics challenge, involving 360 students from 68 schools across multiple countries. The program emphasizes problem-solving ...
For centuries, the concept of infinity has captivated mathematicians and philosophers alike, stretching far beyond the simple idea of endless counting. Recent groundbreaking discoveries, however, have ...
Last week, my first grader came home with thoughts about math (I love it when she does that!) She said that, since one hundred plus ten was “one hundred and ten”, that, therefore, infinity plus ten ...
When mathematician Georg Cantor first glimpsed the true nature of infinity, it changed mathematics forever. He demonstrated that infinity isn’t just endless; it exists in different sizes, each opening ...
Mumbai: The Aditya Birla World Academy (ABWA) along with BITS Pilani and the University of Waterloo, on Friday, hosted a math championship, with over 400 students from 8 countries, including India, ...
Is there an infinity of infinities? The question sounds almost absurd, like a child’s riddle meant to twist your brain into knots. But for mathematicians, it’s a serious (and endlessly fascinating) ...
INFINITY is a concept that is easy to think about, but hard to understand. Who hasn’t looked up at the night sky and wondered whether space goes on forever? Is it an endless expanse, or does it ...
For 50 years, mathematicians have believed that the total number of real numbers is unknowable. A new proof suggests otherwise. In October 2018, David Asperó was on holiday in Italy, gazing out a car ...
