Differential equations are fundamental tools in physics: they are used to describe phenomena ranging from fluid dynamics to general relativity. But when these equations become stiff (i.e. they involve ...

A research team at Duke University has developed a new AI framework that can uncover simple, understandable rules that govern some of the most complex dynamics found in nature and technology. The AI ...

In this nearly all-digital age, analog systems are a vanishing breed. Certain cars still have analog dashboards. A lot of people prefer analog clock faces to something that looks like the timer on a ...

A new AI developed at Duke University can uncover simple, readable rules behind extremely complex systems. It studies how systems evolve over time and reduces thousands of variables into compact ...

Luis Caffarelli has won the 2023 Abel prize, unofficially called the Nobel prize for mathematics, for his work on a class of equations that describe many real-world physical systems, from melting ice ...

Grade school math students are likely familiar with teachers admonishing them not to just guess the answer to a problem. But a new proof establishes that, in fact, the right kind of guessing is ...

This chaotic-looking "double pendulum" follows a large number of rules that govern its motion. Researchers have trained AI to take data from its movements to uncover simple equations that successfully ...
