The work of numerous mathematicians culminated in the discovery of hyperbolic geometry; today, thanks to virtual reality, it is possible to glimpse it beyond its formulas ...
AI could soon spew out hundreds of mathematical proofs that look "right" but contain hidden flaws, or proofs so complex we can't verify them. How will we know if they're right?
Some mathematical statements feel so intuitive that they seem beyond doubt. Yet in certain cases, proving them has resisted ...
