How can you figure out which points lie on a certain curve? And how many possible curves do you count by a given number of points? These are the kinds of questions Pim Spelier of the Mathematical ...

But now, two mathematician friends have used their quarantine time to crack a variation of the age-old geometry problem. They analyzed a set of loopy shapes called smooth, continuous curves to prove ...

Eric Larson and Isabel Vogt have solved the interpolation problem — a centuries-old question about some of the most basic objects in geometry. Some credit goes to the chalkboard in their living room.

The second part in the Mathematical Foundations of Computer Science (MFCS) sequence covers mathematical topics of probability, linear algebra, multivariable calculus and basic optimization that are ...
