Many dynamic processes can be described mathematically with the aid of stochastic partial differential equations. Scientists have found a new method which helps to solve a certain class of such ...

"Even the +, −, =, and x signs we take for granted only came into widespread use in the 17th century. Which means that the earlier algebraists we know of … all had expressed their equations mostly in ...

Equations are the bedrock of science, expressing how numbers or physical properties relate at a fundamental level. Without equations, most of our technology would never have been invented. We may have ...

Ahead of Valentine’s Day, Robinson unveiled a new set of equations that translate romantic phrases and symbols into mathematics. To create them, he drew on disciplines ranging from trigonometry and ...
