Abstract: Motivated by applications in DNA-based data storage, constrained codes have attracted a considerable amount of attention from both academia and industry. We study the maximum cardinality of ...

Abstract: The representation theorem for interval type-2 fuzzy sets (IT2 FSs), proposed by Mendel and John, states that an IT2 FS is a combination of all its embedded type-1 (T1) FSs, which can be ...

In their peer-reviewed work, Calcea Johnson and Ne'Kiya Jackson present five new ways of proving Pythagoras' Theorem via trigonometry. They also detail a new method for finding proofs that yield at ...

Two years ago, a couple of high school classmates each composed a mathematical marvel, a trigonometric proof of the Pythagorean theorem. Now, they’re unveiling 10 more. For over 2,000 years, such ...

Pythagoras Theorem: The Pythagoras Theorem is a fundamental principle in geometry, attributed to the ancient Greek mathematician Pythagoras. This theorem establishes a relationship between the sides ...

A mathematician will turn a groundbreaking 100-page proof into computer code. The proof tool, Lean, lets users turn proofs written in prose into rules and logic for testing. Kevin Buzzard already uses ...

You might be surprised to learn that you can’t comb the hairs flat on a coconut without creating a cowlick. Perhaps even more surprising, this silly claim with an even sillier name, the “hairy ball ...
