A new study reveals how biological branching networks use surface geometry to shape blood vessels, brains, and plants.

Scientists are describing laws that govern the development of certain complex natural patterns, such as those found on the surface of cauliflower. Scientists at the Universidad Carlos III of Madrid ...

The Thinking Mathematics speaker series will continue Jan. 7 at Hyde Middle School, 19325 Bollinger Road. Hyde and Miller Middle School alumnus Joshua Batson will speak with parents and students about ...

In the mid-19th century, Bernhard Riemann conceived of a new way to think about mathematical spaces, providing the foundation for modern geometry and physics.

Beauville surfaces, celebrated for their rich interplay between algebraic geometry and group theory, represent a striking class of complex algebraic surfaces constructed as quotients of products of ...

Mathematicians recently discovered a lot of new, powerful geometries involved in frilly surfaces. They developed the mathematics to describe these surfaces -- inflected nonsmooth surfaces, which ...

In our mind’s eye, the universe seems to go on forever. But using geometry we can explore a variety of three-dimensional shapes that offer alternatives to “ordinary” infinite space. When you gaze out ...
