Mathematical patterns reveal profound truths about the universe and, surprisingly, about our inner lives as well. These five visual math concepts offer unique frameworks for understanding our ...

No matter how enigmatic the relationship between math patterns and physics might be, though, the fact of the matter is that both have done a lot to help one another.

Making that connection would require nothing less than establishing universal mathematical rules of elastic patterns. Tobasco has been working on this for years, studying equations that describe ...

And he co-wrote a paper, published last month, that shows a new physical theory, grounded in rigorous mathematics, that could predict patterns in realistic scenarios. Notably, Tobasco’s work suggests ...

Play a math and movement game making patterns with Caitlin Cargill and Madison. Large colored dots placed on the floor prompt Madison to do arm circles on purple dots, squats on red dots, and a ...

In math, tilings are often appreciated for their regular patterns. But mathematicians also find beauty in irregularity. It’s this kind of beauty that a retired print technician was seeking when he ...
