Tessellations aren’t just eye-catching patterns—they can be used to crack complex mathematical problems. By repeatedly ...

Researchers uncover the mathematical structure behind mesmerizing tiling patterns, linking their visual appeal to the ...

All complex correlated systems, from Arctic melt ponds to the Internet, appear to be governed by the same math as a random matrix. In 1999, while sitting at a bus stop in Cuernavaca, Mexico, a Czech ...

A new study by mathematicians at Freie Universität Berlin shows that planar tiling, also known as tessellation, is far more than a decorative ...

This is the second in a two-part series. Part one can be found here. The debate over what early math should look like and what should be included in the Common Core State Standards for math is one of ...

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 behavior ...
