Since ancient Greece, researchers have tried to isolate special rational points on curves. Now they have the first ever formula that applies uniformly to all curves ...
The study of curve arrangements in the framework of algebraic geometry examines configurations of algebraic curves—ranging from lines to higher degree entities—in projective spaces, where intricate ...
Algebraic curves defined over finite fields have long been a rich source of enquiry, bridging abstract algebra, geometry and number theory. Their automorphism groups, which consist of self-symmetries ...
Ever since Danica McKellar, the actor (best known for playing Winnie in The Wonder Years) and UCLA-trained mathematician, began her New York Times -bestselling series of math books for girls in 2007, ...
Wei Ho, the first director of the Women and Mathematics program at the Institute for Advanced Study, combines algebra and geometry in her work on an ancient class of curves. Like many people who would ...
In her newest book "Girls Get Curves: Geometry Take Shape" actress and math education advocate Danica McKellar teaches readers geometry, using her signature "girly" style. McKellar discusses the book, ...
